|OPEN HOUSE TONIGHT PEOPLE CREED BOUND AT TC|V|CASSOG|AT|ON DECLARES PREACHER
Large Congregation in At- tendance at Seventh Day
 Adventist Church

"The trouble with the people today is that they are creed bound" declared Evangelist Irwin M Martin in his ad- dress last night before a large crowd at the Seventh Day Adventist church, 727 Nineteeth street, north. His subject was Why So Many Denominations" Mex: Sunday night he will speak on the subject the lecture last night there was stere- optican song service, The audience joined heartily in singing the old familiar songs while the illustrations were thrown upon the screen. MT. Martin said in part:
 People think that if they live up to the light men of God received in the 16th century they are doing all that is necessary. Reformers who have brought out advanced light have gathered around them a following which never have gone any farther than the instruments of their reformation. The Lutherans today stand where they were left by that great man of God, who, while he was burning and shining light in his day saw not all things Advance in Christian experience and Bible understanding is the watch word of true religion.
 "Obedience is the sign of discipleship and when God speaks He means to be obeyed There are two great errors com mon to the church, one Is trusting in works and the other. which is no less fatal, is the doctrine that faith releases us from obedience to Gods laws. It is not faith and works but a faith that works that stands as the great need to- day. Any present truth requires faith on the part of the individual who will step out and obey.
 "Never in the history of the world has there been time when the great major ity have been right in matters of re- ligion When Christ himself was upon earth lie only gathered around Him a mere handful of followers and so today we cannot put our confidence in follow ing the throng We must tase the Bible and the Bible alone as our rule of faith and follow it regardless. of what the crowd may do"

Johnson is pastor. on the subject What Is the Supreme Need of ths Hour?" in which he said that the supreme need of this time, so fraught with in- terest, anxiety and tragedy, is the dom- inancy and power of Jesus Christ. That He alone possessed the capacity in pow CT, wisdom and sympathy to lead the forces of righteousness and bring order and peace out the chaos of strife torn world.

Probably at no peri@d in the history of the world has the appeal for charity been so urgent, or the need so great, as at the present time. Many and vari- ous are the methods employed by the organizations devoted to charity to ex- tract, the too often unwilling dollar, from the closed pocket of fhe indiffer- ent to the coffers of such charity in- stitutions.
 Those in charge, of this work are al- ways on the lookout for new and effec- of generosity, inherent in the heart of almost every man and woman. into a burning flame. which would necessarily mean more ready and more generous response to each worthy appeal
 This calls to mind an incident that occurred in Ensley some few years ago in which the writer devised a plan to raise money for charity which proved so successful, that it is herewis.t --!nIfte5 to those interested, for approval or re. lection, but for obviouG reasons U/hout recommendation.
 In writing for the papers I have al- ways tried to avoid as far as possible the personal equation, but in writing rem inescent narratives, it's use is almost inn perative in the effort to make clear the point at issue. So in this instance I will, encroach on the perogatfve of my much esteemed friend and colleague, Frank Willis Barnett, and write in the personal vein.
 It will be recalled that following the closing of O'Brien's opera house, the scene of many brilliant histrionic tri- umph in the early days of the city, it remained dark" for several years. It was finally opened by the Shuberts, first with legitimate offerings, which proved a failure, then later with burlesaue, which proved success, that is, until the authorities interfered. The name of the house was changed to the "Gaiety," and gay it certainly was for the time being.
 Now the principal ingredients of bur- lesque show are. q Couple of slap-stick comedians, an over-developed varietyt of Queens" one or two specialties, and beauty @ chorus. In such a perform ance the physical charms of the chorus aforesaid are much in evidence through out the performance. Their principal function is to display their-well ability to sing and dance, which is often de- cidedly negative, but burlesque chorus does not count so much on ability as in- tellectuality, that is, they must have good understanding.
 A show of this kind had been billed at the Gaiety, and the chorus widely ads vertised as "an exquisite bouquet of beau- ty buds" For once the chorus almost filled the description. I looked them over from every angle, or rather from
