CHRIST BEFORE PLATE

DR.. Love drew a wonderfully in
teresting word picture of Christ be-
fore PLATE in the Methodist church
yesterday morning which was filled
to hear him.
The text were the words uttered
by PLATE who addressing the Jews,
asked the question What then shall
l do with Jesus, who is called the
Christ
To make the question more en-
phatic and more impressive Mrs
Love preceding the sermon exquis-
itely rendered the hymn What will
you do with Jesus?
Mr.. Love described the throng
that gathered in front of the palace
as Jesus was brought to the judg-
ment seat of Roman authority
There were all shades of people,
from the beggar of the street excit-
ed by idle curiosity, to the scribes
and pharisees, the leading men and
scholars of the Jewish nation. They
were there from all parts of the
country, for it was the feast of the
passover and they had gathered in
Jerusalem, as was the custom to cell
ebrate this feast
So it was that PLATE was con-
tending with all shades of life in
the capital of Palestine, and was
mentally measuring the crowd be-

hand-picked referee was the
third man in the ring when Johnny
Wilson won the worlds middle
weight title from Mike ODowd in
Boston May 6, 1920.
And, strangely enough, another
hand-picked arbiter was in the ring
at Cleveland recently when Wilson
lost the crown to Bryan Downey,
the Columbus boxer.
Wilson probably has come TO the
conclusion that referees of the
hand-picked variety are unlucky for
aim, because, as middleweight cham
pion his career was anything but
rosy one.
Mi6e O'Dowd insisted that Hec-
tor McInnis be the third man in the
ring when he met Wilson in B0s-
ton. Wilson was forced to agree.
the end of twelve rounds, much
the chagrin of O'Dowd, McInnis
awarded the decision to Wilson. and
the middleweight championship
went along with it.
In the recent Cleveland bout jim
my Gardner, Of Boston, was put in
10 tHe FlHS 10 referee, at the In
stance of Wilson. who insisted that
the Cleveland Boxing Commission
accept his man, or there would be
no fight
In the seventh round Gardner
awarded the decision to Wilson on
a foul, after the Charleston lad had
been down for two long counts.
This decision was reversed by the
Boxing Commission, which declared
Downey the winner and awarded
him the title.
From all accounts of the fight,
Downey was entitled to the verdict
and the championship. Wilson has
no handpicked referee officiating
and lost it the same way What's
sauce for the gosling is soup for
the gander.
