anniversary of the Rev. and Mrs. E. E. Davis, the congregation of the Second Presbyterian church held a surprise dinner In the basement of the church after the morning service yesterday. The dinner was attended by between 250 and 300 arsons. The Rev. Mr. Davis and wife were 'escorted' to the basement to the I strains of a wedding march. During the course of the ceremony, the pastor ! and his wife were presented with a ' beautiful set of silverware. Omer !Todd presided. Talks were given by Rev. J. J. Rae of the First Presby"terian church, by H. S. Weed and by SERMON Oil MOUNT FORMS CONSTITUTION OF HEAVENLY-HOME ( "The 'Sermon on the Mount' was more than a sermon it was rather a constitution -of the Kingdom of i Heaven to be established." This was la statement of Rev. L. E. Murray at I the evening service of the First Chris tian church last night, i "it states In a general way the char acter of the Kingdom, the advantages It offers, and the condition, of citizen ship. Cltlzanship depends not on race or place or power, but on character. It Is not a question as to who you are but what you are. The favored are sot a kind of moral aristocracy, but the lowest and most fortunate have equal access to its privileges. Those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, who have aspirations partake of Its blessings. If we should strive as earnestly to be what we ought to be as we do to get what we want, the ! earth would speedily become a moral J paradise." ONLY ONE VOLUME CONTAINS APPEAL TO HUMAN HEART t The Bible, as the only book that has an appeal to the human heart, was the subject of the sermon of Rev. Raymond Isley, pastor of the Second English Lutheran church Sunday evening. The service was held in commemorai tlon of the one hundredth anniversary of the formation of the American Bible Society. "No matter In what language the Bible Is translated," said Rev. Isley, "it has the same effect on the heart. It Is the revelation of God to man." MISSION FOR MEN OPENS AS SERVICE FOR WOMEN CLOSES Mission of the Dominican fathers for women closed at the St. Mary's Catholic church at 3:30 o'clock yesterday afternon with Papal benedic tion. Services-for men started at 7:30 o'clock last night and will continue every night and morning throughout the week. Father Ripple had charge of the closing service for the women.

MURRAY ADVOCATES DAY FOR FATHERS i T believe that In the near future Fathers' day will be celebrated just as Mothers' day Is at present." This was an expression by Rev. L. E. Murray fthls morning. tie eiyiiiuiea ixiau iuc rusi Vsuusilan church had planned somewhat to observe next Sunday evening at Fathers' evening" following the observance of Mothers' day In the morning but that such a celebration had been postponed until tall because few father get out to the evening church services In this kind of weather. The Rev. Mr, Murray said that al though Fathers day might not receive the official attention that Mothers day does that it would be eventually recognized. "The Y. M. C. A. movement to bring fathers and sons .closer together is simply a step toward the observance of such a day. I believe that fathers feel slighted and they have a right to.

TRESSEL SHOWS LUTHER'S PART "The place of Luther and the Luth eran Church in the World-wide Distribution of the Bible," was the subject of Rev. Oscar J. F. TresseFs sermon at the evening worship of the Trinity English Lutheran church last night. "Luther's. work in the translation of the Bible is monumental in that It is the only instance in which a single man has translated the Bible into a living language which he himself created and Luther saw that the work of Christianity in the future ages would have a good foundation in the Bible In the language of the people. The Rev. Mr. Tressel explained that over 300,000,00 copies of the Bible in over SO languages have been distributed to provide the North American Indians with a Bible in their own language. , BIBLE LEADS IN LARGE Extracts from the sermon on ''The World's Greatest and Best Book," by Rev. E. E. Davis, at the Second Presbyterian church are as follows: Next to preaching from the Bible I like to preach- about the Bible. Not that it needs my defense, but to help you to get out of your minds any false notions you may have, and come to see and appreciate the Book at its real value. It has the greatest circulation, by far, of any "book published. Since the art of printing has made extensive cir culation possible, it has been sent forth in more than five hundred lan guages and dialects. Beside the Bible, if we can safely judge from its circu latlon and testimony of publishers and book-sellers, is constantly growing in favor. Of all the books that pour forth from the press about one out of three BIBLE SOCIETY DAY IS HELD IN CHURCHES The centennial anniversary of the Amercan Bible Society was observed Jn most of the Richmond churches Sunday in special sermons by the pastors. The universality of the Bible as the Book of all people, more widely read than any other literature in the world, more wonderful in Its composition and more beautiful in its poetry than any other book, were facts impressed upon the congregation at the Richmond churches yesterday. JESUS CHRIST STOOD FOR REAL PATRIOTISM Rev. J. P. Chamness spoke on "A Clever Question and a Keen Answer," at the evening service of the Third M. E. church last night. The text was, "Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar or not?" Matt. 2217. "A lawyers success depends largely upon his ability to question and witness act. The question was a difficult one to answer. If He said yes, He would lose all credit with the people for they expected He would break the yoke of Rome. If he said 'no, you must pay the tribute to Caesar,' He would have given his enemies the very opportunity they sought, to hand him over to the Roman government a rebel. It was a keen question, but it met a keener master mind. He asked to be shown a coin in which the tribute was to be paid. He Himself was too poor to have one. "Jesus always endorsed real patriotIsm, "Be loyal to your government, pay your taxes, render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's. He knew Caesar was a tyrant, but Jesus did not advise revolt. KAPP TO DEDICATE ADDITION TO CHURCH Dr. J. W. Kapp, pastor of the First Lutheran church, Cincinnati, former pastor of the "First English Lutheran church, Richmond, has been secured to deliver the dedicatory address at the Second Lutheran church on May 21. On that date, the addition to the church will be formally dedicated with appropriate service3 beginning Friday, May 19. . The congregation will have a supper at the church on May 19. Talks will be made by members of the congregation. The formal dedication will take place Sunday morning and in the evening service of prayer will be held.' .

SOCIETY MOCKS CHRIST, SAYS SMALL

Rev. W. O. Stovall spoke onl"MockIng the Christ" at the evening service at the First Baptist church yesterday. He told how al grades of society united to the carnival of spite while Christ was on the cross. The crowd cried "Save Thy Self." The world looks in contempt at a man that looks 20 DEAF PERSONS SEE GOOD SERMON : Services for deaf mutes of Richmond were held at the First Christian church last night at 7:30 o'clock. They are conducted the first Sunday evening of each month in the basement of the church by a visiting deaf mute pastor. Rev. L. E. Murray said this morning about 20 attend the services and that they seldom miss a meetlng. OBSERVES BIBLE DAY The Sacrament of the Lord's Supper was administered at the First Methodist Episcopal church Sunday morning. In the evening, Rev. Harry C. Harman spoke upon' the subject, "The Holy Bible." The sermon was an historical sketch of the composition of the Bible. The service was in observance of the centennial anniversary of the organization of the American Bible Society. ALL CIR survives a three year term of life, while the Bible has not only survived through the centuries, but is constantly growing In favor. It contains a revelation from God, to man, giving information no where else to be , found. It inspires knowledge the world needs and has longed for. It does not give mere theories, about matters of vital interest, but facts. It gives knowledge concerning God, man, his duty and destiny, sin and its consequences, and God's remedy for sin. BIBLE GIVES RULES FOR SOCIAL CONDUCT "The Bible contains the principles of correct social life," said Rev. U. S. A. Bridge at the Grace M. E. church yesterday. "No man liveth unto himself. There are social obligations on all. No one is free from responsibility. Society is an organism consisting of certain social units, social groups and insti tutions. These occupy certain places, perform certain functions and must work in certain relations. We are learning very much these days. We are discovering that the Bible is a social text book, an encyclopedia of social principles. "So long it was thought of as a religious work only. We need to rub our eyes several times to make sure that we see aright, and we do. We are finding that its social deliverances are very close to religion. Indeed, there is no genuine religion without social applications." CHURCH IS MORGUE BLUFFTON, Ind., May 8. The old Linn Grove Baptist church is nov an emporium for embalming bodies.

Kinckle devoted a ser vice of the East Main 6treet Friends' church yesterday to explaining the purpose and work of the American Bible society. " 'Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my word shall not pass away." This is the centennial year of the American Bible society. In the hundred years since its organization, it has published and distributed over 110 million copies of the Bible in over 150 different languages. It is an open book inthe hands of every worshipper of God and to all those who will receive it. The Bible is worthy of all acceptation and is the power of God unto salvation to every one who will believe. The Bible is a living, moving power and today is transforming the lives of men and women ; not only individuals but nations as well and is bringing them to accept God's plan for redemption. "The Bible has stood many severe tests but everywhere it is accepted as the revelation of God's divine will, and what God has made and established man cannot destroy. It is a? message of the living God to living men." MINISTERS PREACH ON POET'S THOUGHTS Several ministers, following the suggestion of the Shakespeare Festival committee, used ' laBt Sunday as Shakespeare Memorial day. Dr. J. J. Rae Ib expecting to keep the poet's name before his people by using as a theme at each vesper service in May a phrase from the well-known lines of the banished duke in "As You Like It," "Tongues in trees, books in running brooks, sermons in stones, and good in everything.
