i DEFENDS CHURCH

FROM ASSAULTS

OF HARD CRITICS Rev. Mr. Howard Places Part

Blame for Weakness on Hypocritical Members Others Churches Worship. Lenten ' services were continued at a number of Richmond churches lant , night. At St. Paul's Episcopal church ' the Rev. J. S. Lightbourn gave the second of a series of addresses on "What They Dt4 With Themselves." He spoke of the character of those who accompanied Christ to his death, and told what they did during His ' great passion, and how they ministerHe said that the disciples were resti He said thatt he disciples were reBtlng themselves when they should have been ready to fight. r "The church today is Inefficient," ! he said. "We are too eager to do ' things, but are unequal to great tacks."

Heed Christ's Knock. Rev. Conrad Huber, pastor of St. Paul's Lutheran church, spoke on the subject, "Behold I Stand at the Door and Knock." Dr. Huber spoke first of the attention that is called to this great subject in the word "Behold." He then spoke of the attitude of him who stands, and his personality, and said that the door or entrance was the proper place to stand. He said that the proper part which man was to perform is in admitting Christ when he knocks. "The results will be found In the text 'I will sup with Him and Him with me.' said Dr. Huber. Howard Makes Defense. Rev. E. O. Howard entered into a defense of the church as an institution, against its critics, and praised the church members of Richmond, who, he said, were actively engaged in striving for the uplift of the city. His subject was "The church as it is and as it ought to be." "The church is the greatest institution in the world," he said, "because of the ideals for which it stands, the number of people it represents, and the influence it exerts on human society. The church has been sharply criticised in the past because of what it has done in rebuking iniquity and evil institutions. The present criticisms are aimed at the failures of the church to do what it ought to do, in preventing war, and because there is still a large section of the world which has not been reached by Christianity two thousand years after Christ. 'The weakness of the church may be traced in part to the membership," said Rev. Howard. "We find in church members whose lives are unsurrendered to Christ. The members also include those who are indiffenent, inactive, hypocritical and antagonistic to the aims of the church. But taken as a whole we have in the church today the finest types of human character." Takes Special Collection. Continuing his Lenten sermons on Christ's sufferings and death, as recorded in the Gospel according to St. Matthew, the Rev. A. J. Feeger of St. John's church last evening discussed the appearance of Christ before the court of the high priests, showing the trickery used there, the discrepency in accusing evidence, and the nobility of the Messiah's stand. It was pointed out that Christ's sufferings in the court was part of His redemption work, and that the vicarious effort of Christ redounded to the salvation of souls. The special collections taken at the Lenten services will be devoted to home missions. About Bronchitis. When a cold extends to the bronchial tubes it is called bronchitis. For this disease Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is excellent. Mrs. Will Ilnrrls. Zanesville, Ohio, says of it, "Last Winter I was bothered for several weeks with bronchitis. 1 also had a dreadful dry hacking cough that clung to me so persistently that I became alarmed. Finally I had the good fortune to learn of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. It relieved the irritation of my throat and two bottles of it cured me." Obtainable everywhere. Adv.

BUYS 1,000 BEAUTIES

NEW CASTLE. Ind., Feb. 25 Billy Gardner went to Richmond a few days ago and Inspected the new rose at the Hill greenhouses. It Is known as the Hoosier Beauty, which he says is the most beautiful rose he has ever seen. It is a deep red rose possessing petals which' resemble velvet more than anything else. Gardner was so taken with the rose that he bought one thousand cuttings, for which he paid a fancy price. t that a tarvia roadway costs almost as much as a permanently improved street but its life is not much longer than that of macadam street. Health Officer Agrees. Dr. Wampler in talking brought up the poifft advanced by him when the North Seventh street improvement was considered last year, that brick streets w,ere insanitary. "I see the mayor is grinning," he suddenly remarked. "Well his health officer agreed with me but would not place himself on record before the board for political reasons." Mayor Robbins stepped into the room and explained that he was not grinning at the doctor but had grinned at a traveling man who had approached him to shake hands. Dr. Wampler accepted the apology. Written remonstrances were filed against every resolution considered by the board today.

made a motion to this effect, Bavis seconded it and the motion was carried. Tomorrow evening John E. Koley, Dr. M. F. Johnston. D. C. Stott, J. H. Harrington and Mr. Stanton, representing the property owners, will meet with the board at the city building. The board's action in rescinding the resolution for the paving of North Sixteenth street from Main street to North F street was no surprise as the board had previously decided to take such action if the proposed improvement did not meet with the favor of the affected property owners.

Wavy Hair For Every Woman

(From French Science) If nature has not blessed you with naturally wavy hair, you need not worry, as science has solved the problem with the new compound kurlo. You can have wavy hair that stays wavy and has the appearance of being naturally so. There will be not telltale marks of the curling iron. Kurlo brings out the natural gloss of the hair instead of deadening it. You will only use kurlo once where you have used the curling iron ten times. A year's supply of this new hair curling liquid can be prepared in five minutes by simply dissolving 4 ounces of kurlo in a pint of hot water. Use the solution cold by dipping the comb in it and combing the hair. The hair pries in about five minutes and the waves form. Women who have tried this new method of curling and waving the hair are enthusiastic in the praise of kurlo because of the time and work it saves, and the wonderfully satisfactory results obtained. Adv.

filed a unanimous remonstrance because they will be assessed this year for cement curbs, gutters and sidewalks. One speaker said that later they would be willing to be assessed for a paved street, a sentiment not echoed by remonstrators living on other streets. Two Members Hostile. McMinn and Marlatt have been hostile to the proposed street paving pro

gram, advocated by Bavis and indors-! future needs

were insanitary retaining refuse in the

space between them and D. C. Stott declared that brick streets were so noisy that church services would be interrupted. Disclaims Protests. Mr. Harrington made quite a long speech. He said he had always favored public improvements and that he was jiot protesting against the one under consideration as an affected property owner but as a representative of St. Mary's Catholic church which he said was already staggering under an excessive debt. All the speakers advocated the construction of a macadam rcadway on North A street. Macadam streets have

in the past been put down by the city without expense to the benefited ; property owners. ' President Bavis declared that there were now 09 miles of macadam streets ; in Richmond and fifty miles of them j were in a state of decomposition. They ; were a cause for a constant waste of j city funds, he said, and the only way j to stop this leakage was to permanent- j ly improve streets.

ever, regaruea tne necessity ot permanently improving many streets and providing additional sewer systems so imperative that a resolution was adopted without opposition that council stood willing at any time to authorize a bond issue not in excess of $130,000 to meet the city share of such improvements. It was a foregone conclusion that many affected property owners would vigorously combat this program but after the mayor had withdrawn his opposition to it the belief was expressed that the board, in the event of successful remonstrances, would refer

every protested improvement to council for final action. Action Creates Surprise. Consequently much surprise was expressed today when McMinn and Marlatt combined to defeat two of the most necessary improvements without giving council the opportunity of acting upon them. After the board had adjourned McMinn said that he was in favor of postponing action on the North A street improvement until next year. "I think of no action is taken on the North A street improvement the board should rescind all of the other permanent improvement resolutions," remarked Mayor Robbins. Reasons galore were offered by North A street property owners for opposing the paving of that street. John E. Foley said it would be too great a hardship on the "debt ridden" churches; Dr. F. M. Johnston said it was a poor policy to make improvements during a period of industrial depression; J. H. Harrington said quite a few property owners would have to skimp on their household expenses if they were forced to meet street improvement assessments; an aged woman said she was property poor and that a man recently beat her out of $60 rent; . Dr.. J." M. Wampler said bricks, after they became worn

miles of such streets in need of remaking. That means 300,000 square yards and its costs 45 cents a square yard to put down macadam. To properly repair and remake this streets it would cost the city $225,000. Then in a few years, more money would have to be spent to repair them again. Gentlemen, if w-e macadam North A street what reason have we to refuse to 'macadam all the other streets which need to be remade? Can we discriminate in your favor?" Dr. Wampler suggested that a tarvia

i roadway be put down on North A

street. This was opposed both by Marlatt and Bavis. Each pointed out
