IRON CROSS SCORNED
BY strenuous BILLY
Evangelist Addresses 300 Prominent
People in Lansing Home.

Billy Sunday told a gathering Of
about 800 prominent Washingtonians,
at the home of Secretary of State
Lansing yesterday morning. that he
could have the glad hand" of the
Kaiser and an iron cross from the
Reichstag IL he'd rewrite his sermons
and say a good word for Germany.
But I'd be fed to the lions" said
Billy, sooner than give an iota of
comfort or aid to the man who drew
this terrible war out of the pit of
perdition and then had the audacity
to lie to the Lord and say that
Heaven is on his side"
In the audience that heard the evan
gelist slam the Kaiser we're the wives
of two members of President Wilson's $
Cabinet, representatives of several
foreign embassies and legations, and
several of the country's best known
women.
Mrs. Lansing had invited a Select
ed list of friends to hear the SIREN
uous evangelist. And when Billy got
started against the Kaiser he soon
found his denunciations had the in
dorsement of his hearers. They an
plauded his remarks from all parts
of the room.
Billy tabooed much of his slang.
but at that there was plenty of il
scattered through his sermon. The
evangelist's voice was husky. and he
seemed to be suffering much. But he

SOCIALS
PRAISED BY SOLDIER
One Of Our Boys Over There"
Writes Letter of Appreciation.

A Saturday evening social win be
given this evening by the Christian
Endeavor Society of the Calvary
Baptist Church. Eighth and H streets
northwest. A practical result of these
socials Is shown by the following
letter received recently from one Of
our boys in France:
''The success of these endeavors is
immense. and the benefits are almost
beyond belien These socials and re-
ceptions furnish the pastime, amuse-
ment and social recreation our boys
want. They meet there congenial,
clean-minded men and women who
make them readily feel at home, and
whose interests are not in the SOL
dier's pocketbook, but in his social
and spiritual welfare. just that for
which he Graves.
THE success of our arms depends
as much upon you as IL does upon
the men in khaki. Keep the flames
OF love and honor and decency burn
ing in the hearts Of our boys who
are offering their all for you"
The regular monthly board meet
ing OF the Christian Endeavor Union
for January will be held Monday
evening at o'clock Several impor-
tant matters relating to Christian En-
deayor work in Washington will be
discussed.
The Flying Wedge" will attend
the meeting of the Christian Endeavor
Society at st. Pauls English Lutheran
Church, Eleventh and Eighth streets
northwest at O'Clock tomorrow
evening.
A nationwide appeal has gone forth
from DR.. Clark, president of the
United Society OF Christian Endeavor,
for assistance in maintaining Chris
tian Endeavor activities in foreign
lands. This task has proved very
difficult on account of war condi-
tions. 1t has been estimated that
$50 will support the worldwide Chris
tian Endeavor activities for one day,
and 1t is hoped that contributions
covering the entire 365 days of the
year will be made. This matter has
been brought to the attention of the
Washington societies by a letter from
the Christian Endeavor headquarters
At a recent business meeting of
the New York Avenue PRESBYTERIAN
Christian Endeavor Society it was
voted that the society take the re-
sponsibility of providing. so far as
possible. such food and clothing as
well as other assistance. as might
be required by a family found by an
interested member TO be in need.

Lady Duff Gordon Meets
Billy, But Doesn't Agree
With Him About Devil

Billy Sunday talking to the presid-
ing genius Of the famous Lucille dress
making establishment, Lady Duff
Gordon. Sounds like a strange combi-
nation Of frills and evangelism, doesn't
It?
But that's what happened last night
at the big Tabernacle.
Lady Duff-Gordon wanted to tell
Billy that he is wrong in his theory
of a personal devil. She believes that
the evil influence in the world is "er-
ror." And she wants to preach to au-
diences of women some day and tell
them how to live. She decided to run
over TO the Tabernacle before her act
went on at Keith's, and set Billy
right-although she is a great ad-
mirer of his. having hit the trail'' in
New York.
But as Billy was in a rush when
she came. he Just had time 70 say a
few words to her and smile the ia
nous Sunday smile before he went
on the platform
The famous designer Joined in the
syncopated hymns with vim and
stayed to hear Billy until il was ne
cessary for her to go to the theater.
She was also introduced TO ma
Sunday, Homer Rodeheaver and Rob-
ert E. Matthews, Billy's secretary.

they put him in the rear seat and the
big dog lay down and slept.

He sat there and heard me. and

They said. mo, you can't walk.

He said, mo, I want to go down

swinging himself along on his arms
and stufnps, and just as he rounded
the corner got down to take him by
the hand. The big dog woke up. TOOK
the scent and came bounding down
the aisle, and as they lifted the fel-
low up into a seat; he sat there and
said, Now I am all right.
He wanted to touch what the Lord
was in, and 1t worked.
She said. "If / can only touch his
clothes" She tried it and 1t work.
ed. HaIlelujah!
People said, IF could only READ
the Bible and pray, I'd be saved.
All the big-wiss said, "Al wrong,
all wrong"
But some of them that made plans
of their own and found salvation were
our fathers and mothers, and they
are in heaven now, because Jesus
Christ knew what they meant. He
looked into their hungry hearts and
He blessed them, because they did
the best they could and they wanted
to touch the thing that Jesus was in.
Oh, hallelujah to God! Is 1t plain to
you? All right.
Every theologian, he knows they
were all wrong. You will say SO your
self when You look at it. Thank God,
He saves in spite of wrong theology.
Theology can stand up and tell you
until 1t is baldheaded and black in
the face that all the water in the
world won't save a sinner, and that
is true, my friend, without Christ,
and yet multitudes have found Christ
in the act of baptism and they have
been saved. He Is in 1t.
Theology may tell you that Joining
the church won't lift you an inch to-
ward heaven, and It is true unless
Christ Is behind it, and yet people
join the church. They know they
must do something or be lost. They
have blundered toward God and been
saved.
Jesus No Hair Splitter.
I would rather have a man who
isn't a Christian join a church than
to have a fellow that isn't a Christian
stay out, because the fellow that isn't
a Christian and joins the church, he
is trying to touch something that
God is in. He will hear something.
maybe, that will land him in glory, so
I would rather he'd come in than stay
out. You bet your boots!
So, theology can tell you there Is
nothing in prayer without Jesus, and
1t Is true, yet multitudes have cried,
God, be merciful to me, a sinner"
They have blundered toward Jesus
like the timid woman in Capernaum,
and they have been saved. thank God.
Jesus was no hair-splitter. He was
not hide-bound and dead set on hav-
ing things done deeently and in order
