START SUNDAY
BLUE Law MOVE
Secretary Of Lsrd's Day Alliance
Puts Question Before Presby.
terrain Assembly.

Winona Lake, Ind, May ia
UNITED Press. "A concerted drive
for Sunday blue laws an . move to
check wide-open Sabbath agitation
was started here today.
Church members Of all creeds
were asked to fight the million
dollar propaganda against out
Christian Sabbath" and to urge civil
authorities to prohibit Sunday
amusements.
The blue law question was thrown
before the Presbyterian general as
sembly when the session opened
here today.
1.-THE battle ground of the
churches is on the field of the
Christian Sabbath" the Christian
Sabbath committee stated in q re-
port to the conference.
Presbyterians, together with Bap-
fists. Methodists and other denom-
nations. formed the Lords Day AL
I lance which was organized for the
promotion OF the so-called blue
Sunday" DR.. H. l.. Bowlby of New
ark. N. j., who is secretary Of the
Lords Day Alliance, is also head
! of the Presbyterian committee on
Sabbath observance and wrote the
report which was returned to the
assembly today.
"One Of the outstanding features
Of the campaign" said Mr.. Bowlby,
''is the nationwide propaganda for
a wide open Sunday, backed by pow
erful amusement and sporting or
/ CARNATIONS bent on making the
Christian Sabbath the big money

Warn Ministers.
I'VE have already warned tbs

that the most dangerous movement
against the American Sunday in 81
years is now in progress" he said
"This should stir the blood Of ever,
American patriot and certainly ev'
cry American Christian.
Close up the movie theatre, shut
the gates of the ball park, lock til,

DR.. Bowlby expressed the view
that the blue Sunday would come

PREACHER SAYS
Bible IS LOST


Greenfield, MO-, May 1S.-lne
spiritual, social, business and po-
litical life Of the day has fallen
prey to materialism and its attend
ant evils, the Rev. ]. e. Cortner Of
Dyersburg. Tenn. retiring modera-
tor of the Cumberland Presbyterian
church, told the general assembly
of the denomination here today
with the warning that the greatest
need Of the time is to ind again
1.-THE bible that has been lost"
The World war, the growing
divorce evil, Juvenile crime, crook
ed politics and questionable bust
ness methods is part Of the price
being paid for turning away from
the teachings Of the bible. the
moderator declared.
THE bible is even being lost
from the pulpit" he asserted. and
warned that the faith Of thousands
Of youths is being destroyed by
prophets of the new order. who
tell US unblushingly that most OF
the bible is obsolete and has no
bearing on the complex problems
of the Twentieth Century life."
Citing the fall Of Israel and the
French revolution, DR.. Cortner de-
clared:
"The old saying History repeats
ITSELF is fulfilled in the modern
movement away from the bible. The
most striking illustration Of the
adage-the recent World. war-has
come in our own day, and it grew
out of Germany's reputation Of
Gods word. Why has the world
been ON fire. for the last seven
years? There is but one answer
in the final analysis. namely the
book Of the law has again been lost
Lost From Homes.
1.-THE book of law has been lost
from our homes, and in its place
all sorts of devilish things have
been instituted, replacing not only
the bible but crokding out the very
basis Of spiritual power-the fam.
lily altar. Is it any wonder thai
there are so many unhappy homes
that the divorce courts are KEEP,
busy grinding out their daily grist
and together with the. juvenil,
courts, gaining the cognomen o
our busiest courts in these days
These are some of the direct re
futals to the losing Of the book o
law out of our homes.
1T has been lost from every-da,
life of our people. Our social
commercial, political life is toda.
unguided by the eternal and in
fallible law Of God. This is plainl,
evident by the fact that thes
phases OF our lives are utterly for
| eign to the spirit OF the old booh
The survival Of the fittest' is tn
slogan Of modern business, Will
our political life must be q stencl
in the nostrils Of God and all de
cent people.
1T has been excluded from GU
school. The prophets Of the ne,
order tell US unblushingly tina
most of the bible is obsolete an
has no bearing on the compile
problems of Twentieth Centur
life. The faith of thousands q
young men and women has bee
destroyed by these so-called Chris
tia4 teachers. There is but one wa
for Cumberland Presbyterians t
effectively stem the tide. Build
school and man it with spirit-fille
teachers and revoke the credential
Of every minister who departs fror
the faith Of our fathers"
