Saturday morning at the Second Church.

106 108 West 127th street The paMor's theme was, "Dancing," r.l the speaker made a vigorous at kck 'Tcrpischore," the popular of the present day. The minister began his discourse oy saying: "Members of all divisions cf the human race, living in the past, civilized or uncivilized, have danced. The anrirnt carved dance scenes up cn thnr stones. The historian "ys eldest Fpvptian tribal kines d.Jir'd h' f. re their pods when they "1 d' vn out of the skies to visit tV.

"It iiearf that the ir'ient TrJ fox.r fcurrfT year 'wire fh Thfhs er'p'rd this xtf of the maiter. Da NEW YORK Miriam and her sisters, was purely f.

The dancing around the golden calf in the wild ut 4 purely X. U. IMIU4UII.U JJuviJ danced before the God of heaven; but 1 would have you to tiuuLTsunii dear brethren, that David's dancing was not a parlor social stunt, neither a Harlem cabaret, or a Broadway night club affair. It was distinctly a reverent, ceremonial, and religious exercise. David exhorted all Israel to praise the name of the Lord with timbrel and dance.

He, himself, felt free to magnify the name of the Lord with a dance set to the music of his harp. "The religious' dance among the Jews days of the psalmist to some years aner tne acain or nrist uunng tnc time the Saviour was upon the earth he undoubtedly saw an exhibition bf it. He may not have endorsed it, but wc have no inspired record of his opposition to it. Cut the absence of that record does net prove anything. There are many good things that folks did in the days of Chriht; and we have no inspired record of his endorsing those things; and the same is true of the many bad things that people did.

So the absence of His yoic in protest, or favor proves nothing. "The very impulse of the modern dance leads up to and ends with moral eliinu.Tirt' Tsinrincr Inrlav i accn ciated with the vilest practices known i i to man. it nas cicgeneraicu iroin what David would call a holy exercise, until it has become today the source of the most prolific immorality. The bunny hugs, the fox trots, the grizzly bears, the walk fhc dog, and the camel steps are no more nor less than drills in 'sensual excitement. Fifty years ago an indecent act' was confined to places of ill repute.

Today is has made its appearance in the parlor Social, the public restaurant, the dance hall and the block carnival. "The unblushing nakedness and the screaming color i na modern ballroom Is. appalling. It gives the sensitive soul the impression that the whole company lias just run away from some barbaric settlement; and in the haste to escape, all had v.a penetrate a thicket where the briars rinped and tore the dresses to threads. come a serious problem to our hign schools and collcve authorities.

Many of our educational institutions have banned such activities on account of ihc damage they arc inflicting upon the class work, the health, and morals of tire coming generation. The public dnnce halls are now branded as breeding places for mme; and many of our v.tics have refused any longer to license them. Bills and legal statutes are being framed to abolish them as foes to public order. One dance mad Rirl slew her mother for denouncing the dance hall. "Some people have pled for the return of the old time square dance, maintaining that there is no immoral suggestion in it.

The devil smiles at the argument, because he knows, that no very wicked practice can be overcome with a power of the same nature. "Many dancers contend that modern dance steps have no sensual appeal to them. They further claim that they enjoy the rhythm and exercise, without entertaining a single base thought. I grant that there may be such exceptions to the general experience of thousands who do receive the sptce of the added sex element. But, in recognizing the fact, there are two very important points that must always be borne in mind.

The first that an innocent person' greatly multiplies his own peril by abandoning himself to this particular intoxication of the senses; and the second is, that a very precious few of us are innocent to the care fn this matter. Besides my own innocence cannot hallow intimacies which are made to corruption to a thousand others. Lots of folks have swallowed poison and escaped death. That is no argument for you to try it. Dancing and poison drinking are attended by too many perils.

"Years ago the good old Methodist church put a ban on dancing. At a recent general conference, that ban was lifted. However I am informed that the Negro delegates at that con ference did not vote in favor hat action for they feared the result that might be seen in the Negro Methodist Church. Each individual Baptist church makes its own prohibitions. The majority of the Baptist churches still forbid dancing, while a few leave the matter to the individual conscience Fourteen Protestant Episcopal Churches in Louisville, voted to kill dancing conditions in that particular town had Krown to such a point where it seemed that a reasonable check had to be inaugurated for the good of the community.

Pishop Manning found it necessary to object to the classical dancing staged ly Rev Guthrie at St. Mark's on the Bowery. Dancing masters themselves have declared that our country will co to ruin if modern dancing is allowed to continue without regulation or restriction. "So long as dandng is the favorite amusement of the degenerat libertine, church member who dances If a iim so InriR will nominal worldly folks have no confidence in the piety of a member of any' Seventh Day Advent id Church is known to dance, he immediately beeomes a subject for Au 'cipline and dismissal from the fold. First Fiw.nne! Church At the eleven o'clock service Sunday Pastor Bolden preached from the text "Behold Virgin shaE be with child, and shall bring forth a Son, and iball call His mme Frrrmanriel.

The Spirit of the University of the Presence of God in the world of humanity is comiiig to the front. Hence the name of the person in this university consciousness is to be Lm. manucl. Then the people will be taught by the Holy Spirit, how to realize and make use of the knowledge of the truth "God with And this may be found in ul denominations, and among people who make no professions. This God with us is the Father of God, that is incarnated in the historical person, Jesus Universal Spirit and Creative Power, Father, God has always had a central Son in whom He abides, and to whom is given power to release spiritual energy among the children of men.

While there may be much opposition against this holy and divine manifestation in human society thtre has always been a remnant upon the earth and in the world order, so that the divine purpose and plan is caried out on exact Therefore this is the time and age of interpreting and realizing the truth that Jesus Christ our Lord is to bo a dored as Emmanuel (God withus) Because of the growth of suicide a mong college youths, and because of the practice of licentiousness and jn dulgence among people in general, and because of disregard for law, and the growth of wickedness and murder in our civilization and christian; nations, the question is asked, "What is the with the young people) of today?" and "What is the cause, i oi mis general conuuion among ihc people?" Our answer is: That it is the lack of the knowledge of this God that I have referred to. This time is at hand When it is difficult to implant your idea of God in people's minds. But Jesus the Emmanuel can. lie has already done so. He has flooded the low lands of human thought with Mis spiritual energy.

His power and love is flooding the human hearts. And it will in time be said: "God walked among men." He will not be thought of as either male or female. Nor will He be thought of in the light of race, creed or color. For thirteen years I have endeavored to have the little group around me fell and see that God is with and within them. But if Jesus the Emmanuel rightly dwells in you, you feel, sec and know it.

Get the deep sense that God is with you. Get it in your heart in your spirit, in your And feci His presence within you. No one can teach you God. No one can teach you power. You must discover these qualities within yourself.

And with prhver develop them. Jesus our Lord the Emmanuel is very glad to day to have you claim Him as God. Then after you claim him as God. He is glad to have you let Him come vou and dwell there.

On the third Thursday of the month members who never see each other at any other time come together. Highly departmentalized as a work of thi ti milLt Ykm 1 I 1 for a class, for a club, to the cafe teria, to the Employment Department. or to the swimming pool and have little opportunity for knowing about other. bhases of the work or other people in the Association.

After a day shut in a stuffy office, store or apartment, there is nothing finer than to get out in the cold brisk air, skate and feel your blood tingle and your muscles thrill to this vigorous and invigorating exercise. Surely one room will not much longer accommodate the Needle and Artcraft Club on Tuesday evenings if the members continue to make such lovely paper costumes as they are working on now. To see one is to wani to make one at once and the club is growing steadily in size. These ostumes will doubtless be used at the Spring Carnival and if the decorations are flowers to match the dresses we can already imagine the beautiful bower that the auditorium will be! 1 The Emma Ransom House The girls of the second and fourth floors of the Emma Ransom House were hostesses at a beautiful George Washington party on Friday evening, February 18.
