words Of the immortal Lincoln. No
nation can exist half slave and half
free, then by the same token no ma
ton can exist half righteous and
half sinful am conscious that
We have reached the place today
where we have taken God off the
throne in our modern living and we
have exalted the things of the world.
Let me remind YOU that the story
of Germany is the story of a nation
that said goodbye 70 God She de-
thrOned Jesus Christ and exalted
Wilhelm She exchanged the cross
of Calvary for the Iron Cross or
military fame. She put aside the
dictum that Righteousness exalteth
aviation and put her own blood
thirsty philosophy Of might and
power in the place Of Gods law. We
perhaps are not doing this same
thing. but surely my friends we are
in grave danger of errors almost as
terrible in their results. Have we
not chosen gold instead Of the more
perfect way? We have brought the
richest Of our lives and laid them
upon this altar when we should
have reserved this for Him Let Us
remember that there has never been
a time in the history Of the world
when a nation was saved because it
was the richest nation. If that were
the case then the world war would
not be ended yet. for when the fataI
hour of 1914 struck Germany was
rolling in wealth. For 40 years her
II easury had been enriched by the
pouring in Of the treasures of her
citizens. It is always the righteous
ness Of God that will save a peo-
pie.
Selfish Pleasures.
we have dethroned God and in
His place we have placed the god
Of selfish pleasure. There is no
Gainsaying the fact that in our day
we have gone almost mad over our
own selfish pleasures. Things that
we once thought sacred and holy
and worthy Of our support and al
legiance we have now frOwned upon.
Those things for which our fore
fathers were willing to die we are
now prone to consider out of date.

How true this is Of the church wor-

time when nothing was permitted 10

Of attending services in the House
OF God Men and women felt a

the church Of Christ In our day
too many Of us feel that it IS a bur

when a man or a nation exchanges

DETHRONED GOD FOR.
SELFISH PLEASURES,
SAYS DR.. G. W. TITUS
Pastor Speaks Forcefully of
Evils That Must Be
Banished.

Rev G.. w. Titus, pastor Of the
First Christian church, delivered a
fOrceful sermon at the morning ser.
vices Sunday taking for his theme
Evils That Must be Banished.' In
the course of his remarks he said:
II am conscious that I am run
ing the risk today Of being rated a
mossback. and Anticipated because
OF what I am about to say In the
course Of this discussion. Yet l am
reminded Of the fact that if one en-
gagged in the holy task Of building
the kingdom Of God on earth Is to
be true and loyal 10 his God ana
duty he must waive public opinion
and speak with boldness. There Is
a crying need today for men who
are unafraid. and who are willing
TO keep their eyes off the galleries
in that they may preach with con-
viction and power Therefore I feel
il my duty to discuss with you az
this time the theme that I have an
nounced.
Forgetting God.
I'm our Bible school lessons dur
ing the past few months we have
been discovering the reasons for the
downfall of Israel We have seen
how that from the once pOwerful,
and mighty nation that she was.
she was hurled down in defeat and
finally passed out into Oblivion.
The history Of her decay is the story
Of the forgetting Of God. the invit-
ing OF sin. and the choice of un-
righteousness on the part Of her
people Israel could not long endure
when she turned her back upon Je-
hovah. and no nation that has ever
lived can stand and prosper with
out the divine leading Ct God. Ma
ton after nation has followed Is>
rael and has taken its place upon
the arena Of action only 10 fall ana
become a thing OF the past. HIS
tory will always repeat itself and
unless we are very cautious and
bring about some changes in our
twentieth century life, there =
grave danger that we shall go the
same road.
II am we'll aware that we are
resting securely in the fact that we
are the richest nation on the face
Of the earth today. True. we poin,
With a great deal Of pride 20 our
national resources. and 10 our
splendid form of government, ana
think that there is no cause for
alarm Nv friends. let US not ne
too sure. We are no safer than were
some OF the other nations that have
gone into oblivion. We are no more
immune than others who have per-
ished before Us. and the crying need
az this hour is for the prophet Of
God 10 raise his voice In solemn
warning This leads me then to say
that If we are 70 live and prosper as
a nation. and TO make the world a
better one there are some things
that we have got 10 learn right now.
There are some frightful influences
at work that we have got 10 curb.

Executions At Is Sur Tile.
= .r ASSOCIATED Press Dispatch.l
Washington, D. c., January H.
Repeated denial that more than two
military executions occurred at Is
Sur Tile, France during the Ameri-
can occupation of that town as mill
kary center, was entered today before
the senate committee Investigating
charges that American, soldiers had
been hanged without trial.
Former officers who had served at
Is Sur Tile in various capacities fat
soldier witnesses, who had appeared
at earlier sessions OF the committee,
declaring without exception that had
other executions occurred, they would
certainly have been informed as a
matter of routine official business.
Described Two Hanginss.
Colonel Samuel v. Ham, who was in
command OF the post from March TO
July, 1919, described to the, commit

had been carried out after formal
sentence by court martial for partic-i

The military police were directed
"to throw a Gordon around the scat
fold" he said, and the mayor and
town authorities were asked to at

Premier BRAND, in the course of his
speech, said the United States had

The premier next turned to the sub

"It Is inadmissible,' he said, that
France should be absent from this con
ference, which is purely financial and
economic especially when such pow
