DUTY OF CHURCH NOW
 OUTLINED BY SUNDAY
 SERMON AT CATHEDRAL

Speaking at Holy Trinity Cathedral Sunday, Dean Christian quoted Major Brent, chief of chaplains in France, as saying:
 Our first duty in the ministry is not to strain at great effects, but 60 unveil God to the people, This is to draw men to their knees. Worship of the mysterious and yet simple God is the greatest and most vital activity of human life, coloring and invigorat- ing and giving point to all other ac- tivities.
 Worship is languishing with Us, in part, because we have tried to make our services attractive to men instead of attractive to God, and partly because We try to give to men by preaching a knowledge of God that can best come through worship in sacrament and prayer am as. sured by those who have a right to speak that our churches are ire quented more than formerly by people who know the. meaning and value of worship
 For more than two years l have been going in and out of the churches in France. Those churches are places of worship through which cease less stream of worshippers flow-thc brave poilu in his war-stained and faded blue uniform, the little child ren, the sad-faced widow and the aged peasant. They go to meet God. There may be no service to join in. no preacher to listen to, but they know God is in His holy temple al ways. and they are well content to talk to Him and be talked to by Him.
 "I went to the little village of Neuilly-sur-Suize in the afternoon The sound of singing came from the little 16th-century church. The cure was away at the war, but all the vii lagers were there singing vespers. They were gathered to pay homage in worship to the ever-present God. y
 Have we lost the art of worship in this country?

COMB SAGE TEA IN
 FADED OR GRAY HAIR
If Mixed With Sulphur it Darkens So Naturally Nobody
 Can Tell

Grandmother kept her hair beau fluffy darkened, glossy and attrac- tive with brew of Sage Tea and sulphur. Whenever her hair took )n that dull, faded or streaked ap- pearance, this simple mixture was applied with wonderful effect. By asking at any drug store for 'Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com pound,' you will get large bottle of this old-time recipe, improved by the addition of other ingredients. all ready to use, at very little cost. This simple mixture can be depend ed upon to restore natural color and beauty to the hair.
 A well-known downtown druggist 'ays everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound now because It darkens so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been ap- plied-it's so easy to use. too. You simply dampen a comb or soft brush and draw it through your hair, talk ing one strand at time. By morn Ing the gray hair disappears; after another application or two, 1t is re- stored to its natural color and looks glossy, soft and beautiful This preparation is delightful toilet re- quisite. It is not intended for the cure. mitigation or prevention of disease.

HEAT WAVE HELPS
CITY CLUB DRIVE

The recent heat wave is bringing
home to business men Of Washington
the advantages of membership in the
new City Club.
With a swimming pool and other
heat-defying advantages within two
blocks of Thirteenth and G streets
northwest, members can leave their
desks and in a few minutes enjoy the
same natatOrial privileges as il they
were at Atlantic City-and with no
sun shining down to sunburn and
blister the exposed spots.
This is the prospect for next sum-
mer held out to men Of Washington
by ]. a. Whitfield, president Of the
club, which purposes to have a large
swimming pool, gymnasium, athletic
equipment, roof garden, and other con-
veniences in the 81 ,OOO 900 downtown
club house which the organiza ton Is
preparing to build.
These visions are pictured by Mr..
Whitfield in the latest issue of Re
suits" a daily leafiet which is being
issued in connection with the clubs
drive for 500 active members in the
next six weeks.
Despite the bad weather" says Mr..
Whitfield, in hints to members Of the
twenty teams that are now soliciting
members, the committee on new
membership applications will continue
TO work necessarily. Far from tenn
porariIy suspending activities, the
team captains and members should
double their efforts. for the perspir-
ing business man is more inclined to
falkland listen-than TO work"
