BISHOP ADVISES
FOLLOWING GOD
After Asking What Would
You Do If You Were
God?"
DECLARES BIBLE
ANSWEAR CLEAR

What Would You Do II You
Were God?" was the subject OF
Bishop Cooks sermon, at the noon
Lenten service in st. Andrews Epis-
copal Church today. The audience
was the largest since the opening of
services on Ash Wednesday. The
Rev. Charles A. Rantz. rector Of the
Church OF the Ascension, Claymont,
conducted the opening prayers.
In answer to the query. What
Would You Do II You Were God?'
Bishop Cook said in part:
Il put this question in the spirit
OF deepest reverence, that it may
bring us to a consideration of some
very practical issues. You may think
of It as altogether too preposterous
to be worth serious consideration.
or to deserve answer. Yet God
answered II.
The question implies there are
at least points of comparison be
tween God and man; between an
Intimate Father and his human chill
dren. There is no religious propo-
sion OF real value to mankind that
can altogether escape this method
OF picturing God to ourselves. Like
as a father pitieth his own children
even so will the Lord be merciful Ia
them that fear Him. How such a
statements clears the atmosphere!
What would you do II you were
God?"
The answer Is clear. II yo'
were God in the sense that Christ Il
God, II you were God as the Wore
came among the men dressed In hu
man form and under the limitation
OF our human nature you would d.
what He did: face the condition
and fight the battle; do the will o
the Father day after day; bring II
love and faith among the sons o
men: minister to their needs an
build up their hopes and aspirations
YOU would face the cross and II ne
cessary die the death and come fortl
triumphant and victorious, II yol
were God.
This Is what God did as a man
There is no possibility OF any 9th
er course OF action. There Is tn
way, the one way the way OF III
and truth.
Being but men we can but FOL
low where he had led the way
cheerfully. obediantiy. loyalty an
humbly."

IN WALLS FALL
Building Inspector Says
Time Had Weakened
King St. Building
Papa LIVES
WITH BROKEN BACK

Building Inspector Preston and
Fire Marshal Ainscow inspected the
building at 22O King street, this
morning, where Fire Chief Lutz,
Edward J. Papa, Joseph Carroll
and Howard Chadwick. firemen
were hurt on Wednesday morning
under a falling wall. Following the
inspection Mr.. Preston said the acci-
dent was not due to faulty construc-
ton OF the building, but the fact that
the walls were old. The mortar had
been washed out from between the
bricks.
Reports will be made to the De-
partment of Public Safety and the
responsibility will be fixed by thai
department.
Reports are conflicting as to the
cause of the falling of the wall. The
statement has been made that two
streams OF water were playing or
the opposite side OF the wall from
theefremen, and that the wall fel
because OF the pressure from th'
water. The fremen were caught II
blind alley and had no chance tc
escape.
Firemen. however, deny tina
water was being thrown upon th'
wall at the time OF the accident.
Pappa, whose back was broker
under the falling bricks Is still alive
AT the Delaware Hospital, his condi
ton being about the same as It wa
yesterday.

SPARE THE RINSING
AND SPOIL THE
CLOTHES

No matter how carefully you
have washed your clothes, If you
have not rinsed every bit of soap
out, they will still be yellow. Use
a soap that dissolves completely
and there is less danger of par
ticles sticking to the clothes to
yellow them.
Rinse is an entirely new kind Of
soap that dissolves instantly,
making both water and clothes
slippery with its pure, rich suds.
Ii soaks all the dirt out Of the
clothes so that no hard rubbing
is needed to get them spotlessly
clean.
Rinse is easier to rinse out than
n soap with solid particles to stick
to the fabric. But because the
rich Rinse suds loosen every bit
Of dirt, very thorough rinsing is
necessary to carry off the dirt.
Rinse is rapidly replacing bar
soap for the family wash.

BONUS BILL IN
CONGRESS SOON
Non-Cash Gratuity Plan
Said to be Acceptable
to Friends
CASH FOR THOSE
OWED UNDER $50

WASHINGTON. Marcn Omitted
Press) Bonus leaders in ths
House predicted today that the non
cash gratuity plan will go through
Congress with little trouble.
The subcommittee engaged in
re- drafting legislation to eliminate
cash bonuses. except for men VIII oss
com mpensation is $50 or less esti.
mated that within two weeks the
bill will be ready. Members declared
they could see no reason for undue
delay thereafter. though experience
has shown that there is many a sliT
between prediction and enactment.
Since the Insurance certificate
proposal involves no wrenching OF
the Treasury within the next three
years, there will be no particular OBJ
lection to II among the majority OF
Representatives and Seators.
President Harding is agreeable 10
the proposal.
Here's how the new bonus plan
would work;
All ex-service men would be en-
titled to 81 a day for domestic ser
vice and s125 day for foreign ser
vice. under the combined cash and
certificate plan, provided the total
compensation exceeds the $50 pre-
viously allowed by Congress. This
amount Is to be deducted from all
gratuities under the plan.
Then II the amount tho veteran Is
entitled to does not exceed $50. re-
may take II in cash. II II does ex-
coed $50, he must take certificate
on which he can borrow half ths
face -llue until 1928. For instance
II Is estimated that the average pay.
ment will be about $3.50. on this
the veteran could borrow S165, OF
get the entire amount in 1928.
II the veteran chooses to take tn,
optional plans OF insurance. home oi
farm aid. vocational training and
land settlement aid this would be ar.
ranged promptly. Present plans cal
for giving the veteran about 40 pei
cent. more compensation II he ac
cepts any plan other than the cash
and loan certificate.
