Who Changed
the Sabbath?
BY REV. v. B, WATTS
i Il Il i. ! X i

"That the Sabbath question is the
great moral issue Of the twentieth
century. and that 1t win be the line
which win separate the righteous
from the sinners were the declara-
tions made By Evangelist Watts in his
lecture on ''Who Changed the Sab

might.
He declared that only one day has
even been mentioned in the Bible as
| the Sabbath, and chat is Saturday, the
seventh day He showed that Christ,
as the Creator, made the Sabbath,
and therefore it is necessarily the
Christian Sabbath.
Christ never changed the day.
did Christ ever observe the first
day Of the week? Where is the rec
ord that Christ kept Sunday? Such a
record does not exist nor did he alter
the sacred statute. In the seth Psalm
and the Saith verse, He says: MY
covenant win 7 not break nor alter
the thing that has gone out Of my
lipsp And with His own mouth he
declared again and again that He
came not to destroy nor abolish the
law, but to confirm it. Hear We Him;
Think not that | am come to destroy
the Paw, or the prophets / am not
come to destroy, but to fulfilla For
verify say unto you till heaven and
earth pass, not one jot or one title
shall in no wise pass from the law till
all be fulfilled. Whosoever there,
fore shall break one Of these COM
mandments and shall teach men So
he shall be called the least in the king
dom of heaven; but whatsoever shall
do and teach them the same shall be
called great in the kingdom of heav-
en- Matt. SIT. It is difficult to see
how language could be stronger.
"Did the apostles change the day?
No, how could they? Luke 1856 de-
clares that they kept the Sabbath aft
er Christ's death. and by a careful
study of Acts 1913 and IL, and 10,
41-44, it is evident that Jews, Gen
tiles and the Apostles worshipped on
the Sabbath. rp Faag ,4usH

Cross What its future tasks may bt
1t is yet Impossible to forecast We
know that so long as there is an Amer
ican army in the field the Red Cross
will have special function to perform
Nothing could be Of greater impor
tance to the American Red Cross thar
the plans just set In motion by the five
great Red Cross societies Of the world
to develop program of extended &C.
tivities in the interest Of humanity
The conception involves not alone eff
forts to relieve human suffering, but
to prevent it.; not alone a movement
by the people Of an individual nation,
but an attempt to arouse all people to
sense Of their responsibility for the
welfare OF their fellow beings through
out the world 1t is a program both
ideal and practical. Ideal in that its
supreme aim Is nothing less than yer.
liable "Peaoe On earth good will to
men," and practical in that 1t seeks to
take means and measures which are
actually available and make them eff
fective In meeting without delay tht
crisis which Is daily recurrent in thu
lives Of all peoples
"For accomplishing its mission In
the years Of peace which must lie
ahead Of US the Red Cross will require
the ablest possible leadership, and
must enjoy the continued support, sym.
pathy, and participation in its work
of the whole American people. 1t is
particularly fortunate that such mar
as DR.. Livingston Farrand should have
been selected as the permanent head
OF the organization. The unstinted
fashion In which all our people gave
of themselves throughout the war IL
the best assurance that our Red Cros'
will continue to receive that co-opera
ton which will make its work a source
Of pride and inspiration to every Amer.
ican."
Mr.. Dawson. al chairman Of the In
Commission Of the Ameri

with other Red Cross soci
cites for that purpose.

MAYOR HEADS ORLEANS INTER.
URBAN DELEGATION.

Mayor Behrman, Commissioner E.
j. Glenny and City Engineer Thomas
l.. Willis will represent the city OF
New Orleans at the interurban street
railway conference, to be held at Bay
ST. Louis, Miss, February y and %.
1t is planned to construct municip-
ally-owned, electric interurban railway
between New Orleans and Mobile
under the provisions of acts of Lou
isiana and Mississippi Legislatures.
The mayor announced the personnel
of the New Orleans delegation Tues
day.
City Engineer Willis is figuring the
cost of two routes, one to follow the
Spanish Trail national highway and
the other to run through the property
of the Lake Shore Land Company and
cross a neck of Lake Pontchartrain
south of the Northeastern bridge
near Slidell.
If the Chef Menteur route is chosen
it is said the right of way will be
given to the city free.
The plan is for the city of New Or
leans to build the interurban to the
state line. From that point three Mis-
sissippi coast municipalities will stand
the expense of construction to the
Alabama line.
