FLAG.BEDECKED PULPIT
BACKS HIS SERMON
American. English and French En-
blems Wave as Rev. Martin Preaches

with three immense flags over the
pulpit, Wesley Chapel, Fifth and p
streets northwest. last night claimed the
nonor OF being the first church to honor
the visiting British commission nv in
cluding the national anthem of Great
Britain, God Save the King" in the
services. The American flag was in the
center or the group, the English fas
on the right and the French tricolor on
the left. The congregation also sang
America" and the 'Marseillaise.
A few hours ago We welcomed to our
city, the British commission" said the
pastor, Rev. D. H. Martin, D. D., in his
sermon on Under Three Flags" I'VE
remember with gratitude the attitude or
1895. ia
1T is appropriate that this church to-
night should have three flags in the
pulpit. The church will stand behind
these hags and do all it can in the name
Of God to bring them victory.
England and France are fighting our
battles. We may better fight Germany
with them than fight her alone. We are
an inspiration to them. France has
brought home to US a great military les
son. She has taught us the necessity of
universal military service. In France
every man Is soldier and that Is the
reason she Is able to hold of the Ger
man hordes and gradually drive them
from her territory. The stars and Stripes
will be the determining factor in til.
war for democracy and human rights,
God help US to maintain what the three
flags stand for"

Farm Patriotism and Elimination
OF Partisan Lines, Sermon Subjects
Not Political arties, but "All
American" Rev. c. c.
Mclean Declares.

Some of my congregation did not want
to see woodrow Wilson reelected, but
now they want to see him hve," said
Rev. G. c. Mclean, pastor of Douglass
Memorial NJ. E. Church, Eleventh and H
streets northeast, yesterday in his ser
mon on love and patriotism.
Our loyalty to our country is meas
ured by our loyalty to the President -
said the pastor. Love and loyalty go
hand in hand. As God 30 loved the world
that He gave His only begotten Son, so
we must love our country and give our
selves to the cause.
Love Is the divinest thing in the
world. We are brought into the world by
love. Simply wearing the colors is not a
true sign OF loyalty. We wear the nag
on the lapels of our coats but in some
cases 1t hides the heart of the hypocrite.
BILLY Sunday said that there are two
classes Of people in the country these
days. the patriots and the traitors. We
should no longer be Democrats or Re-
publicans, but a big body of loyal Ameri-
cans loving our country enough to give
our all for It
Everything in the world comes about
by love. A man may say he loves his
wife and stir be disloyal to her, and in
the same tone say that he loves his coun-
try and be disloyal. Let US cast out the
spirit OF disloyalty to God, ourselves and
the nation. This is not the time to ask
why, for the nation must have the m-
divided support OF all its citizens and to
do our part by the nation we must love
t.
without love nothing Is worth having
Unless we love our country wearing the
flag means nothing"

BAKERS WANT INCREASE
In 10-CENT BREAD TRADE

Washington's bakers have under con-
sideration at this time plan to eliminate
to the greatest possible extent the bak-
ing Of scent loaves OF bread In favor Of
the larger Decent loaf.
Although the matter has not reached
the stage where bakers have taken any
definite stand on the matter. a number of
local baking officials indicated yesterday
that the demand for the 1o-cent loaf Is
steadily increasing.
1T is much easier for the baker," said
one official yesterday. -for It avoids the
waste of labor in making small loaves
As q matter Of economy for the pur-
chaser. there Is more value in a 10-cent
loaf, owing to the fact that the greater
the quantity purchased the better value
that can be given"
The popularity of the l0-cent loaf Is
said to be growing throughout the city
and many grocers are selling nearly as
many 1o-cent as 6-cent loaves.

The man on the battlefield who has re-

WIN accept the living Christ as his Savior
or Gle In sin. Many a man who has lived
lfe OF sin, and kept his heart hardened
to the principles OF Christianity, turns
about on the field OF battle In his dying
moments, accepts the Christ, becomes a
penitent and is eligible to enter the
kingdom OF heaven.
Christ walks upon the field Of battle
searching for the souls Of men who are
ready 10 receive Him. Christ said 70 the
sinner who was crucihed on Calvary with
Him. This day shalt thou be with Ne IN
Paradise The same words are uttered
to the sinner who has come 20 his senses

Many hnd pardon and peace with
Christ in thei- last moments Of anguish.
Theirs is the bitter cup IL they do not
repent when the time comes. The Bible
says we are born In sin and must die IN
sin. Unless we accept the Christ we
must die in sin
We ask what IL the fate on the mil
lions who go 10 their deaths in this hor-
rible war; These things are the crucial
test Of a mans character. There IL hope
for the man who Is stricken in the Cos
pei Of Christ. A patriot is a noble, true

After July I 1t will be dryer but even
then the druggist who is willing to sell
his oath and debauch his profession
will need looking after And the prose-
cutor who fails to attend to that branch
of his duty is equally guilty Of perjury
as regards his oath and equally de-
bauches his profession and office. He
needs attention from the electorate.
The dry state wins the training camp.
That is only an incident Of its win
nings. It wins the best class Of people
seeking the best state to live and raise
their boys in. 1t wins more of its own
money, spent over it's own counters for
it's own products. 1t does better yet,
brings on generation of clean,
thoughtful citizens with ideals of cit
izenship Incompatible to those Of a
booze ridden community.
Let's tighten up the clamps, put the
screws on tho booze and take the adj
vantages Of decency.
