BIG AUDIENCE HEARD
HIM IN FIRST CHURCH

That the whole world is looking to
America for guidance. and that the
whole world will do just the thing
America does, was the main point in
the talk last night before an audi
ence of some $50 in the First Metho-
dist Episcopal Church. made by Will
liam E. ("PussyfootD Johnson. trav-
eler and reformer. and agent of the
Anti-Saloon League.
IF America fails. the world is lost
in the matter of prohibition, said Mr.
Johnson. I'VE are leading the world
in the abolition of drink; England is
close on our heels Opportunity is
ripe across the sea. England is our
Mother country, and we ought 10 love
and take care of our mother in her
old age.
Lloyd George said If America
fails, the world is lost and this is
the viewpoint of British thought"
Cosmopolitan Congregation
1t was a cosmopolitan congregation
who greeted the renowned reformer
with the Chautauqua Salute, for while
a greater number. some 1000 were
there to hear Secretary of the Navy
Daniels, yet between $50 and 800
people from every walk in life and
nearly every congregation in the city
were assembled in the First Methodist
Episcopal Church last night TO hear
'Pussyfoot" Johnson. Three or more
churches closed to permit their CON
gregations to attend. The service was
opened with invocation by the Rev
Dr. Sewers. minister Of College ave
nue. Baptist Church. and the benedc
ton was by the Rev. DR.. S. T.. Per-
sons. of the Presbyterian Church.
There was special music by the choir
and familiar hymns by the congrega-
ton. The offertory anthem was sung
10y Mrs. Anna Brewer.
Rev. Swadener Talks
The pastor, Dr. Burgan introduced
Rev. E. Madison Swadener, OF In
dianapolis, Ind, who preceded Mr..
Johnson, and who is on a tour of
the country with him. Mr.. Swadener
said that "the fight would have been
over when the dry law went into eff
feet had we been dealing with high
class American citizens"
Instead" he said, I'VE are deal
ing with people who have no rev.
erence for constitutional law. But
the prohibition forces are awake at
last. We have come too far and have
paid too high a price TO give up now.
No matter the cost, we are going
to see this thing through TO a finish.
The Rev. Mr.. Swadener made an
appeal for funds (no specified sum
was set for the meeting) and ushers
were told to get busy with their en-
velopes and cards.
