DR.. Gordon Smeade, Archdeacon
of Mississippi for the Episcopal
church, preached to fair-sized con-
gregation in the Methodist Church
here Monday night. His discourse
was asmost eloquent and inspiring
one, not only from spiritual but
patriotic standpoint. His subject
was "The True Vision and the False
Seers." In course of his sermon in
referring to the League of Nations
and the attitude of this country, he
said that the League of Nations must
be ratified, or this country lose her
honor forever. The world had been
bleeding and for the past two years
America had been playing politics,
when the question of the league of
nations should be as high above poll
tics as heaven is above the earth. He
said that Providence had designated
only one great leader in this nation
in each of three great crises, viz:
Washington in the revolutionary
war; Lincoln in the civil war, and
Woodrow Wilson in the world war
