ENLIST FOR THE WAR

Not everybody can go to the front
in France TO fight for his country.
Everybody unable TO serve in the army
however, can enlist in the Red Cross.
There is important war work for all
the men and women Of America, and
for youth under or over military age,
tight at home. No age limit bars en-
ssstment In the Red Cross. II is the
great organized force through which
every one not on the firing line may
play his part in the war for Liberty.
The chance TO become a recruit in
the greatest army ever modified to
relieve human suffering, as well as to
tighten the burdens and enhance the
strength Of the fighting men, is pre-
sented to all by the Red Cross Christ
mas Membership Campaign. In the
week before Christmas it is planned to
add 100000 names to the Red Cross
rolls. Fifty thousand recruiting
booths will be open through the Unit
ed States to receive enlistments. 1t is
planned to make membership in the
Red Cross almost as universal as cit
izcnship. To that end it is proposed
that the way shall be made so open
that no one can remain an outsider
through lack Of proper invitation.
Here is an opportunity to show the
1917 Christmas spirit, as well as to
get into the war work that summons
all patriotic Americans President
Wilson, in apt phrase, has proclaimed
that Red Cross membership is the
Christmas spirit in terms Of action"
Let the men and women Of America |
make that sentiment ring like ca
thedral chime through the land on
Christmas morn.

BISHOP SHAHAN ASKS
men TO ANSWER CALL
Says Patriotism Enlightens and Is the
Tenet Of Natural Religion.

Bishop Shaman, of Catholic Univer-
sity, told lay students yesterday morn
ing that a response to the call to arms
was the first ordeal of patriotism which
he expected they would gladly measure
up to.
Patriotism, or readiness to defend our
native land and all It stands for" he
said, 'is an immemorial tenet OF natural
religion. and as such purifes the heart
and enllghtens the spirit beyond any
other natural sentiment"
He declared that the lessons to be
learned in military service would tend
to curb the national crime of waste, ex-
travagance and luxury. This, he said,
would aid In the solution of present
economic problems-the increase, conser-
walton and distribution Of the national
food supply.
In closing he said:
You will also share in the renewal
Of our American spirit, a more consid-
cradle and intense unity, an elimination
of perilous foreign growths, and a res
torattOn to public honor and efficiency Of
the basic principles of our American
democracy. Read and remember the now
historic address of President Wilson, and
let its text sink into your hearts as the
voice of our American public con-
science, and the mirror of our best
thought on the unparalleled conditions
OF our national life in these days"

OUR DEBT TO FRANCE
RECALLED BY PASTOR
Patriots Should Fight for France. De-
clares Rev. ]. H. Durham.

Declaring that we "owe a debt We can
never repay" the Rev. ]. Harvey Dun
ham. pastor OF the Western Presbyterian
Church. said last night that we owed that
republic "both men and millions"
Some persons oppose the sending of
our troops to Europe" Rev. Dunham con-
tinued. but We owe France a debt we
can never repay. II is fitting that the
nation that gave US Lafayette and mill
lions to help us in our Revolutionary
struggle, should now receive from us, in
grateful memory, both men and millions.
Addressing the French Parliament,
President Poincare characterized Prcsi-
dent Wilson's address and the action of
Congress as the most decisive event of
the great war
1--WE had thought the most decisive day
of this world conflict was when Joffre
stayed the invading army and saved
Paris from destruction. But the French
President would have us believe that the
decisive moment arrived when the United
States allied itself with the free people
OF Europe for the safeguarding of democ-
racy."
Rev. Dunham took for his text Deep
Calleth Unto Deep" from Psalm 42:7. The
entire service was a patriotic one. A

gregation during the services

"CALL TO THE COLORS"
IS SOUNDED BY PASTOR
Rev. J. c. Ball Appeals to American
Men to Defend Right.

There never was a time when men
were more needed for the defense of right
and the flag than now" said Rev John
Compton Ball, pastor OF the Metropolitan
Baptist Church. Sixth and A streets
northeast, last night in his sermon on
The Call to the Colors."
THE country needs and must have" &"
said the pastor, red -blooded, clear-eyed,
strong-limbed and cool-headed men.
Il was in London in 1914 during the try
ing days of the British empire when the
call for men sounded all over the entire
domain. There were signs men wanted
everywhere. We are passing through just
such a stage. The true soldier knows that
war ism picnic or joy ride. He knows
it costs him great deal to fight for his
country. The man who lays down on the
job is a Stacker and he goes down in
derision. God calls men to follow the
Christian doctrine. Men who fall down
go down to sin and death. Victory for a
soldier of Christ means eternal happiness.
The bugler OF Christ never blows a re-
treat. Neither will the bugles of our boys
sound retreat when we are in the fray
81 assure you that the call to the colors
Is not an idle one. This is a serious war
and one that must be fought to a finish
II the principles of a Christian nation are
to be upheld. Do your bit Never let II
be said that we were deaf 10 the call Of
our country when its life was imperiled
by foreign power"

SUMMARY PUNISHMENT
ASKED FOR DISLOYALTY
Barrett. Fresh from War Zone. Quotes
Allies Firm Stand.

John Barrett, director OF the Pan-Amer-
ican Union, in an address at the Pan
American Building last night, said that
England and France these days are met
ing out summary punishment for the
slightest act o. utterance that hints Of
disloyalty, and he urged the government
of the United States TO take the same
stand,
Mr.. Barrett recently visited the Euro
pean western front war zone as the guest
Of the allied governments and his talk
last night was in support OF a policy Of
greater military preparedness.
"Only a miracle saved France and Eng
land from being brought Gbjectly TO their
knees in the first year OF the war;" said
Mr.. Barrett. "and in view Of this expert
ence I cannot understand how intelligent
men and women in this country can stand
against a policy Of preparedness.
"One Of the things that has a dom
mating influence on conditions in France
and England today is the absolute intoler-
ance Of any act or utterance that can be
construed as a sign of disloyalty. At first
both countries were gravely hammered by
men and women whose voices bordered
on doubtful ground. These have now
been eliminated. and this must be the
experience OF the United States IL II is
to conduct war successfully"

DIFFERING in BELIEF,
LOCAL PASTOR RESIGNS
Rev. E. L. Douglas Not in Accord with
Doctrinal Standards.

Worshippers at the little Sixth Presby-
terian Church down in Southwest Wash
ingtOn did not sing the evening hymns
with their customary fervOr last night.
Many made brave attempts, especially
On the last hymn, ABIDE with Me- for
their pastor, Rev. Earl L. Douglas, re-
minded them 1t was his favorite and re-
Guested all to sing. Further, it was the
last night with his congregation.
Since the arrival of Rev Douglas, seven
months ago, fresh from six years prep
aratiOn IN two prominent colleges, there
has grown up between the young pastor
and ais congregation at the Sixth Pres
byterian, a strong relationship.
But ever since his arrival, IT seems,
there have been slight differences be-
tween him and the Washington Presby-
terry. He feels. it is declared, that he
cannot conscientiously subscribe to all OF
the doctrines embraced in the Deliver
ance Of 1916. adopted by the Presbyterian
Gene al Assembly in 1910.
On the other hand It Is decreed by the
PTesbytery that no candidate for the min
istry. whence theological beliefs do not
accord with the dOctrinal standards OF
our church" shall be ordained. For this
reason Rev. Douglas has never been or
dained. it Is said.
At the regular services yesterday morn
ing Rev. Douglas announced his refusal
general assembly OF the Presbyterian
faith, and his retirement was thus neces-
STATED.
Overcome with grief, many of those
present wept. Friends, determined that
he should not leave them, have asked the
permission of the pastor to take up a
fight that he might retain his pastorate.
Unwilling, however. to disrupt the con-
gregation,i Rev Douglas refused.
Helge o. II. Murray, moderator Of the
session Of the church, expressed last night
a deep regret that Rev. Douglas had left
Final action on the retirement Of Rev.
Douglas viii be taken within the next
two weeks. There is only a slight likeli-
hood that the decree Of the Presbytery
will be mooif1ed.
Mr. Murray announced that Rev. Doug
las Birney, the former pastor OF the
church. will return to the pulpit and re-
main with them until a new pastor is as
signed.
