Herald Sunday Sermon

Rev. Charles z. Fultz. pastor Of
the Memorial United Brethren
Church, North Capitol and r

been looked upon as one Of the
leading pastors in the city, has

Later he was transferred to the

Ohio.

has made his church one Of the
most popular ones in the Bloom
lngdale section of Washington. Ear
ly in 1916. through his untiring
efforts. extensive improvements
were made at the church, with the
result that the United Brethren

ton Of having one of the most
up-to-date Sunday schools in the

world, In the which I have suffered
the will of the Father in all things
from the beginning g Nephi lilo
I'D.
As the Lord directed, the people
rose from their posture of alteration
and one by one came to Him and did
see and feel the prints of the nails in
1 His hands and feet. and the spear
wound in His side. From among
the multitude He chose twelve, whom
He ordained with authority to bap-
tie the people after His departure.
Besides the ordinance Of water bap-
tism by immersion and the laying on
of hands for the gift of the Holy
Ghost. the Lord established the sac
rament of bread and wine, and con-
ferred upon the Nephite Twelve au-
thority to administer in all these sa-
cred rites. He instructed the people
In the principles Of the Gospel and
gave them many OF the precious pre-
cepts which, prior to His death, he
had taught the Jews. He affirmed
that in Him the Law Of Moses was
fulfilled. and that instead thereof the
higher law of the Gospel would be In
force among men.
1t will be remembered that in the
impressive sermon of the Good Shep-
herd and the sheep, delivered at Je-
rusalem, Christ had said: And other
sheep I have, which are not Of this
fold: them also I must bring, and
they shall hear my voice; and there
shall be one fold, and one shepherd. ("
John 1915. Who that has pondered
that passage has not yearned for fur
ther light as to its deeper meaning?
In His ministry among the Nephites
the Lord continued his discourse thus:
And verify, say unto you, that We
are they Of whom I said, other sheep
I have which are not Of this fold;
them also must bring, and they
shall hear my voice: and there shall
be one fold. and one shepherd. ="

Thus was the Church Of Christ es-
tablished in America. About 400 years
later It ceased to exist, for the over
whelming tide OF apostasy had swept
the New as well as the Old World,
and by Divine allowance the Nephites
fell a prey to their hereditary foes.

Senator Sheppard Fears Aerial Pro-
gram Has Been Started Too Late.
Written for International News
Service by Morris Sheppard.
(senatOr from TexaS.)

Ny interest in the development Of
the airplane as the greatest instru-
ment of defense this country could
have dates from the day received
a letter from Admiral Peary out
lining his plans for an aero coast
patrol. At that time I had no dream
Of the United States ever being at
war with Germany.
I studied Admiral Pazry's presenta-
ton of the case and wrote to him
Offering all the cooperation in my
power. Now 1 am thoroughly Of the
belief that the airplane will be the
means of the United States winning
the war with Germany.
agree with Lord Kitchener when
he told the British war board that
one good aviator and his machine
were worth a division OF the army.
With the money Just made available
It is possible for this country to
have $500 machines built by January
/. Don't understand this to mean
that these machines Will all be at
work on the western battle line.
1t Is quite likely that the first
planes built would be used for train
ing purposes only. And after such
useage they would be good only for
the scrap heap.
It will be another full year before
the effects OF the air campaign now
being planned will be felt in the
slightest degree.
We need at least 10000 machines.
We have not besun our plans a day
too soon: We may have begun some
days too late 1 believe Germany
has set forth upon a tremendous pro-
Crane Of airplane construction. The
result of the war will depend upon
the fieetness OF our factories.
One thing am assured: we will have
the men ready for air duty much
sooner than we can get the machines.
1t was testified to before the sub
committee of the Senate Committee
on Military Affairs, in its hearing on
aeronautiCs that already there we're
more than 5a.OOO applications on file
for the aviation squad. 1t was the
opinion Of Admiral Peary that this
number would soon be increased to

them seriously enough to warrant hos
pital attention, in the collapse of
section of the west bleachers at Neil

More than twelve thousand fans
had gathered to witness the seasons

behind third base, were crowded. A
dozen physicians in the grandstand re-

first aid to the injured. More than
100 persons fell when the section gave
way, but of this number only AZ were
found to be hurt. Only one man,
Elmer e. Crozier, is thought to be
dangerously hurt. He suffered a frac-

st. Louis, April IS. - Freddie
Welsh, lightweight champion, easily
bested Battling Nelson, in twelve
rounds of boxing here last night. The
champion ducked, lodged, sidestepped
and backstepped whenever Nelson
started blow and was not hit solidly
more than half a dozen times. Welsh
also showed his furnishing power. His
left darted to Nelson's face repeatedly,
and his infghtIng was far superior to
the Battler's.
Both Men Fight
The contest was not all one sided,
however. Nelson never failed to meet
Welsh, and never did he back of an
inch. In the eighth Nelson hit Welsh
squarely. but the blow appeared low.
The champion backed up against
the ropes, but Referee Ed Smith mo-
toned the boxers together again.
Welsh, apparently angered, then be-
gan his only real attack. He slashed
Nelson with right and left hooks and
pummeled his body. Nelson soon was
bleeding. and at the end of round
eleven, both men were crimson from
cut in the Battler's lip. Nelson
weighed 1872, Welsh 1876.
