rksrr"f3 H THE WASHINGTON TDIES. MONDAY. APRIL 14. 1013. -- ait PAS OR P L HI SUNDA ,Y Declares "Damaged Goods" Should Not Have Been Pro duced Then, Despite Aim. The play "Damaged Goods," was the subject of two sermons yesterday. In one sermon the production of the play was highly praised, but in the other, the fact that such a plav was pre sented on Sunday was deplored. The Ue. J. M. M. Gray, pastor of Hamllne Methodist Church, took issue with the general praise of the produc tion of the play and declared no play can be produced on Sunday without detriment to morals. "I do not question the high purpose of the play," said Dr. Gray, "although from the discussion of the play it would seem that the high purpose was not It chief attraction. The use of Sunday for its production, however, was contrary to what long experience has proved to be the best morals and the most Christlike religion." "The prayer at the beginning of the play reminded sue that a noted bishop inagurated the Subway Taern for the sale of intoxicants with a prayer which neither consecrated the character of the Intoxicants nor commended the taste of the bishop." He Praises Play. The Rev. E. Everett Granger, while he did not think the play should have been produced on Sunday, declared that it was a wonderful play and demon strated that the tjrae for mock modesty was past. Conditions of society exist and must be recognized. Parents must tell their children of the dangers of the social evil, and the Government must eradicate quack 'doctors and quack medicines. "The play Is said to have been well acted," said Dr. Granger. "I did not see' it myself. It is a shocking play be cause It deals with shocking condi tions. It is not vulgar or immodest. It deals fearlessly, plainly, heroically, and cientiflcally with a great Eocial evil. And it puts the sins where they belong on the parents." Declaring that President Wilson is setting an example to the nation in the observance of Sunday rest, the Rev. Wallace Radcllffe yesterday addressed a meeting In the Metropolitan Church yesterday oa the desecration of Sunday. Dr. Radcllffe stated that the example of those In high official places is gene-ally followed by those in the everyday walks of life. Wants All To Aid. At the close of the meeting resolutions were adopted calling for aid from every householder in the District for the pas sage of a bill providing for the proper observance of Sunday. Describing the first judgment day when Lot made his exit from the city of Sodom, and declaring that man must row, as at that time, look to "God and the mountains." the Rev. W. F. Cook discussed "A Judgment Day Scene" be fore the Washington Temple Congrega tion yesterdav afternoon. The scene of the righteous man of Sodom fleeing before the devastating flames of the Creator's wrath was graphically de picted by the evangelist, who declared that so many of this world turn, like Lot's wife, for things which will do us no good in the life beyond. "Mankind should ever seek the moun tains of God's love." said the evange list, "and remember that Biblical tra dition says that Sodom now lies at the bottom of the Dead Sea, in which no fish live and over which the birds of the air are afraid to fly." The reventieth anniversary of St. Paul's Lutheran Church was observed yesterday with special services. The Services began with Sunday school at 9:30 o'clock and continued through the dav until the evening service. At the evening service the Rev. John T. Hud dle delivered a sermon showing the his tory of the church and the work done since it was founded, seventy years ago.

T RIAL OF N'CLEM PUPILS TO DONAT E TO OPEN TOMORROW WASHINGTON TIMES BUREAU. AXACOSTIA. D. C. APRIL 14 The absence of any adequate place for public assembly in the school buildings of Anacostia has led the Ar.acostla Citizens' Association to or der a report on the situation. Dr. James A. Watson Is the chairman of the commitee to which the matter was referred. An assembly hall was intended, it is declared, in the attic stor of the Ketcham School, but It is unavail able because of a narrow stairway, not fireproofed. and a lack of seats. Chairs are borrowed, the association has heard, when a public gathering takes place in the school rooms. In the Van Buren School and the annex building there are no assembly halls. An effort will be made to have the attic !n the Ketcham School recon structed to serve as a central place of meeting.

Jolly Eighteen Club To Have Straw Ride Prize Winning Flower Named "Eleanor Wilson" Fame has indeed cast its shadows o'er Miss Eleanor Wilson, the Presi dent's youngest daughter. She had had a flower named after her. It is the Eleanor Wilson snapdragon, a new flower which has Just won a blue ribbon at the Grand Central Palace flower show in Nw York. The word snap dragon does not appeal to the feminine mind, but the color of this highly cul tivated old-fashioned garden aristocrat is delicate and beautiful. The Eleanor Wilson snapdragon was originated by F. W. Fletcher & Co., of Auburndale. Mass. Its spikes are large and perfectly shaped and are tinted a deep, rich pink that is more like a strawberry sundae than anything else. The shade of pink Is a trifle deeper than the one introduced under this name in silk materials, but the two are as close as art and nature come. ROCKVILLE. Md April 14. Norman B.
