ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS WRONG
.SAYStHIONAN BILLY SUNDAY"
Mother Of9 Race Brought
Sin Into World, That's
! Why / Preach" la
BY FREDERICK M. KIRBY.
NJ. "a. Al staff CORRESPONDENT.

NEW YORK" Woman brought sin
INTO the world. didn't she. There sure
" she should have the right to help
undo the wrong and lead the world to
ine Eden above"
That Is the answer Of Mrs. Aimee s.
Mcpherson, the pretty 2s.year-old
Los Angeles woman preacher, who is
speaking nightly to enormous audience
IS of New Workers. in her eyangelis-
tic campaign. Mrs. Mcpherson is an
ordained minister of the Apostolic
church asked her to tell why she
thinks a woman should have the right
70 preach the gospel
''Woman's personality, her tender
synipathies, her simple direct mes
sage the woman mother heart, brood
Ing over the world, yearning t. help
It's wayward sons and daughters
these are all qualities in favor OF her
right to tell the story of Gods love-"
she replied.
eDebotah led forth armies with
cleaning banners. The first salvation
sermon was preached by the woman
at the we'll 1t was woman whom
Christ commissioned to preach the
FIRST Easter sermon.
Women were co-laborers with Pc
ter and Paul in their work. But did
not the apostle say, Let your women
keep silence in the churches? Yes,
but he did not refer to Cody wom-
ans right to preach the eternal Cos
pei, for he also gives specific instruc-
lions as TO how woman should con-,
auet herself when preaching or pray
ing in public. Before i consecrated
my life to this service of love for God
and humanity, was an elocutionist.
No one questioned my right to amuse
hit church congregation with witticism
and comical recitations. That was
speaking in the church, wasn't it?
.yhe best reason in favor of a
goman's right to preach the gospel is
that Gods favor has attended it, and
blessed results follow. Called into
work at IL, have been in active SER
vice practically ever since. l have
seen thousands come to alter, laden
with iniquity, then. rising to their feet
changed men and women.
Mrs. Mcpherson was born in Inger-
soil. near London, Ont, in Canada.
Contrary to her usual custom, Mrs.
Mcpherson did not cross the CONT
nent in her gospel car" She is ac-
conipanied by her mother, Mrs. Min
ME Kennedy. She has left her young
SON; Rolfe, nine years old, and her
laughter, Roberta at her Los An
yeles home.

The bomb he used was Of a type iden-
teal with that employed by Frsnk Holt
ON July 2. 1915, when he attempted to
blow up the capitol here. Explosive
experts who worked on the Holt case be-
lieve that the attempt on the attorney

mains Of the dead anarchist showing il

Thumb Prints Found.
Reports OF bomb outrages almost at
the same hour as the one here in Clevc.
land, New York, Newtonville Mass,
Boston, Philadelphia, Paterson, N. J.,
and Pittsburgh left no doubt in the
minds Of officials here that the plot
was widespread.
Experts from the bureau of mines and
army and navy experts in high explos-
ives were called upon in the effort Ia
determine the explosive used in the
bomb here. Some believe the machine
had been packed with cordite and that
short commercial fuse had been used
as detonator. Officials here believed
that this fuse burned SO rapidly that the
anarchist had insufficient time to es
cape.
Prints were taken Of the thumb found
and these are being rushed to police
headquarters of all the big cities in int
