T. Sweeney of Columbus, former consul general of the United States to Constantinople, In an address on "Moses and King Tut," at the afternoon Big Meeting held at English's theater. "To blot out the truth proclaimed by the Old Testament, It woulu be necessary to blot out the hieroglyphics of Egypt, the Syrian and Persian historical records and the historical writings of other nations," said Dr. Sweeney. "We are able to read the story of Moses In Egypt without the Bible by reading the message of the sacred writings of Egypt.

Science has en abled us to know for a certainty that the stories of the Israelites In Egypt are true. "Moses represents for us the Ola Testament history, but King Tut only represents a certain part of Egyptian history. Moses wa the greater of the two. Both had a chance to be King of Egypt and wearer of the crown of royalty, Moses rejected It. He became the greater because he was willing to become God's sen-ant rather than rule as temporal king over men.

King Tut was insignificant because the only thing he did was to sit on the throne of Egypt." Dr. Sweeney was presented by A. H. Godard, general secretary of the Y. M.

C. who presided at the meeting. The Irvlngton ladles' quartet, composed of Mrs. George F. Goldman, Mrs.

A. W. Macy, Mrs. Clarence Campbell and Mrs. Harry Marquette, accompanied by Mrs.

A. Von Staden, gave a thirty-minute recital. TRIE DISCIPLESHIP. The tests which Christ applied to true disclpleshlp in the days He was with men are the same by which men and women today are tested, he Rev. U.

S. Clutton, pastor of Tuxedo Park Baptist Church, told bis congregation at the evening service in his sermon on "The Test of Disclpleshlp." "If you want to try out disclpleshlp, see how willing you are to obey the things which Christ laid down as essential to His followers," said the Rev. Mr. Clutton. "At the bottom of every test of true dlscipleshlp lies obedience to His will.

What is the will of Christ In your life? Y'ou decide that for yourself. What Is God's way in your life? Decide It. If you are willing to carry out that conviction, squared with the teachings of Christ, then you may consider yourself a true disciple of Christ." VETERAN TO "PREACH. John Sproul of Pittsburgh, veteran of the world war, Is said to have been wounded and gassed in the Chateau-Thierry drive during the world war, will speak at the Cadle Tabernacle next Sunday afternoon, according to an announcement made at the services at the Tabernacle at the evangelistic campaign of the Bosworth brothers.

"Don't marry a girl wh wan't make a god mother." Following up a sermon last week on "What Kind of a Young Man Does the Modem Girl Want for a Husband?" with a kindred sermon on "What Kind of a Girl Does the Modern Young Man Want for a Wife?" these were some of the things which Dr. Frederick K.

Taylor, pastor of First Baptist Church, in his sermon told a congregation, which packed the church last night. Many persons were unable to obtain seats In the big chinch and were com pelled to stand throughout the scr v-j Ice, occupying places in the vestibule and aisles. In his sermon, which was the firth of a fieclal aeries of "Fireside Sermons," Dr. Taylor read several letters which he had received from young men regarding their opinions of the modern young girl and the kind of young woman they wanted to marry. Take Yonr Time.

"You young fellows don't need think you must do your courting in too much of a hurry," said Dr. Taylor. "No, I tell you to take time and know the girl well, but of course, don't court her too long. Go with her a reasonable length of time, but don't go with her so long you take the keen edge of it off. It Is iinn.

"Some parents are unfair in exacting certain promises of young persons. Why should a selfish mother spoil a young man lire by demanding or hlm that he must not marry as long as she lives.

Don't block a young man's happiness In life, mothers, by standing in the way as a parent. Step Out on Faith. "Don't expect, fathers, Ihe young men to give your daughter all you have been giving her. Don't put Ideas In the heads of your mothers, that will frighten a girl about Retting married. And you don't get ny sympathy from me about your daughter being married too young, bet 'em step out on faith, I nay.

"There are characteristics which evety young man should seek In a trirl whom he Intends to marry. I'd say at the outset, don't marry a girl you feel you have to apologize for In any way before you are married. Don't marry a girl you are offering excuses for wh after you are married you probably will not be in such an excusing mood. "Select the girl you think is your superior find the kind who will make ever accepted vou wonder why she you. It ought to be that way thirty years after your marriage, too.

You ought to marry girl who Is able to make a real home. Don't marry a girl who is just a peach of a dancer. I want a girl who Is as graceful in her heart a she Is on her heels. When you want your breakfast on a cold morning, you want mote than a peach of a dancer. Beauty Not All.

I "You want more than a of a looker, too. It is a fine jhing for a girl to be beautiful. Kery one likes good looks, hut ou more than good looks, you know. The av erage young man wants a girl who is good sport. Yes, it is all right if she Is a good tennis or golf player, but Is she a good sport when her cake turns to dough? The average young man wants a girl who Is cheerful and optimistic and greets him with smUes after a hard day's work.

"The average young man a girl who is a good cook. No, you girls won't be worth much If ijou don't become a good cook. I can take you to home after home, where girls In homes of luxury know how v.o cook. Don't get the Idea it is beneath your dignity to know how to cook well.

In England, It is tho custom to "dress for dinner," whether it be partaken of at home or away from it. The Englishman goes In for this not merely because It is etiquette, but for the refreshing and re-energizing Influence of "a tub and a change" after a day's dull round. Therefore, do not regard putting on evening clothes occasionally as a bore-some and high-brow social duty.

Look upon It rather as a courtly practice that lifts the wearer out of a slough of this work-a-day world into the realm of gentle and gracious leisure. Don't deny yourself the finest pleasure of dress to be Irreproachably turned out In black-and-white at night.

The front is rounded off, the single button affording just enough anchorage to hold the garment firmly in place.

The shoulders are broad. The lapels are faced with satin or dull ribbed gros- graln silk. The ventless coat is kept snug across the hip? to render it more shapely. The trousers are straight-hanging, full-draped and taped or braided down the outer seams.

D. after He has visited the other planets of creation, asserted the Rev. Charles H. Gunsolus, pastor of tho Spiritualist Church of Truth, in his evening sermon on "The Second Coming of Christ." Preceding the second coming of Christ, the Rev. Mr.

Gunsolus said that perpetual motion will be discovered; that ships would sail without fuel; that airplanes will draw their motive power from the air; that flesh and vegetarian diets will pass away and man will live only upon fruits; that disease, war and death will be wiped out.

Modern churches should have an outside pulpit, the bulletin board, as well as the Inside pulpit from which to preach the word of God and Interest persons In the things of God, declared the Rev. Charles M. Reed, pastor of Woodslde Methodist Episcopal Church, In his morning sermon. A new bulletin board of the church waa formally dedicated as a gift of the Ladles' Aid Boclety and the Standard Bearers of the church.

"There were days when practically everybody went to chtlrch," said the Rev. Mr. Reed. "We often speak of 'the good old but I believe that I am living in the 'good old These are the only days I will ever know personally anything about. In the days of another age, more persons probably went to church than now, and often it was done as a means of social Intercourse.

The church was a gathering place and men and women met each other at the church. "Times have changed and we meet each other more now than our forefathers did. Multitudes now never step Inside of churches at all. Times have changed the things inside as well as outside of the church. With modern Inventions the church has entered a new field.

We have pulpits outside of the church here Is one, this beautiful new bulletin board.

CHLRt'H REDEDICATEI). The newly remodeled Seventh Presbyterian Church, Elm and McCarty streets, completed at a cost of approximately $30,000, was formally re-dedlcated yesterday morning by Dr. F. AV. Backemeyer, secretary of the Presbyterian synod of Indiana, who assisted the Rev.

Thomas N. Hunt, pastor of the church, In all-day services. The day was designated by the members of the church as "Jubilee Sunday." In his dedicatory sermon, Dr. Backemeyer stressed the value of providing a suitable place for worship and held that service In behalf of humanity was greater In value than gold sjid silver and precious stones. He took for his text, "Behold, a greater than Solomon Is coming." "Of the riches of Solomon and Christ, the latter manifested the greater source of -wealth, spiritual power," said the Rev.

Mr. Backe meyer, bv th. e)ven the wori'3 through Christ. Solomon erected a richly decorated temple of gold and precious things, but the temple of Christ was of far more worth to the world." Special musical programs were arranged by the choir for the day's services. Mrs.

Kenneth E. Hoy sang at the morning service. Mrs. Asel Spellman Stitt sang at the evening service. An "open house" program was carried out during the afternoon service at 3 o'clock.

Visitors were escorted through the newly remodeled church. Capacity congregations attended all of the services. DECLARES CHRIST NEEDED. Theological seminaries should be called "theological cemeteries" and "sawdust trails" should be done away with, declared B. L.

Allen in his evening sermon at the Brightwood Church of Christ on "The Restoration of Primitive Christianity." Mr. Allen decried the Interchurch World Movement a-s "of the devil" and he also opposed any "church federation" movement. "The church federations and kindred evils try to conspire by compromising against the restoration movement," said Mr. Allen. "The same wicked power that chained the Bible during the dark ages would chain the Bible today if It could.

John Wesley tried to reform the English church, but in vain. He made the same mistake as other reformers, "We propose to do away with the sawdust trail and such things Of the modern church revival. We propose to restore the name, 'Church of Christian immersion, Lord's Supper every Lord's day, the first day of the week. The theological seminaries should be called theological cemeteries. The Blbre needs to be restored to its proper place.

Christ should be restored as the head of the church, the proper head, and not some Pope, bishop, presiding elder or pastor." PARTNERSHIP DESCRIBED. Partnership with God cm the part of mankind brings great achievements for God as well as mankind asserted the Rev. John Wesley McFall, pastor of Broadway Methodist Episcopal Church, In his morning sermon on "Fellowship With God." He took for his text. "We are laborers together with God." "In this life, we not only have the privilege of laboring for God but with Him," said the Rev. Mr.

McFall. "He takes us into fellowship with Him because we need Him and He needs us. Every person who does work that contributes to the peace, happiness and welfare of mankind is a colaborer with God. "In this fine fellowship we iabor, with Him to make this world a kingdom here His will Is done by man on earth as It Is in heaven. "To have fellowship with God brings Him nearer and adds honor and importance to our dally tasks and saves us from the monotony of the commonplace In life," HIGHER IDEALS I RGKD.

A. building, on "A Field of Stars," deplored the "deadliness" of future wars, but he urged the boys to defend the high Ideals of America from outside aggression.

"There are many other desirable things In life about which we must be concerned, our government, trade and commerce, schools and libraries, all excellent, It Is true. We must be concerned about these things.

Yet our true success may be measured by our building of Christian homes. "There Is a decline In the Christian home. Many things are contributing to that fact. Ave have the decline In the reverence for the marriage vowr) In evidence in our life today. Men and women do not take seriously enough the sac-redness of marital pledges.

They are anxious to try out marriage, cheapening It as a contract. 'Again, parental authority is being lessened. Too imny parents are not firm enough in Ihe matter of rearing their children and too many children are permitted to grew up without that Chlstian parental restraint that Is es sentia! to good cl'lzenshlp. Along with that we see a decline In the real Christian Instruction In the home. Our citizenship demands character building.

"The church needj to become sware of these conditions and do everything: to build up more Christian homes. of our good ministers comes from our good homes rather than the occasional man saved from, the gutters of the streets "Too many fathers are making a mistake of selling their children's hirthrlg its for the sske of gaining millions of dollars. America needs to bolster up the great liintltutions of government by bullying better homes In which the reverence for the things of God l.i the founditlon of conduct." PLEAS FOR DEAF. A plea for greater consideration of the deaf was voiced by Dr.

Frank S. C. Wicks, pastor of the All Souls Unitarian Church, In hi morning ger- mon. "bet us consider the deaf," said Dr. Wicks.

"Every' other class of sufferers seem to have their full meed of sympathy. The blind live in a world of sym pathy, kindliness and helpfulness. I The sight of a crippled child arouses compassion and we have a Riley hospital for them. The lame, the hurt and the blind find willing hands at every turn, but off In a corner, isolated, shunned, unpitled, alt the deaf, sufforlng almost universal neglect, greeted with Impatience, the gentle courtesies that make life sweet denied them." Dr. Wicks described the deprivations of the deaf, referring to their ab sence of pleasant sounds of natur and the human voice, the loss of social enjoyments, the Inability to secure employment.

He spoke also of the resources left for the deaf, books and pictures, the movies, n.ituril sciences, scenery, travel, out-of-door games and many hol bles. He jrged that persons coming in contact with the deaf should cultivate clear, distinct tones, well placed and without shouting.

It Isn't money that gives peace to men. We must have a more abundant life, a new responsibility for all we have, a responsibility to God for things as they are." rOINTS TO DUTY. Too many professing Christians tune up their tin-lizzies and go as far as possible from the house of God Instead of Joining In the services of the church, A. L. West, former Indianapolis man, said In his morning sermon at the Danville Church of Christ on "Seeking Highest Spiritual Values Every Lord's Day In His Church." "We should seek after those things of real value and worth and forsake, the cheaper things of the world," said Mr.

West. "The Psalmist sang of desiring the greatest gifts, laboring for and seeking after the things of God, a desire to dwell In the house of the Lord forever. Yet how many professing to love Jesus and whose names are on the church books, do not stay in the house of God. "We have Influence and God can use us to extend His kingdom, but we must be willing to aid Him." DANGER OF SUCCESS.
