have been enabled to complete same
had it not been for the fact that
.'ome of the hig;h priced members
of the cast were willing; to. In some
respects, take a chance at the mo
raentar returns that the picture is

fully interwoven dramatic story of
powerful love interest, yet true to
history, considering; the enthusiastic
collaboration of foremost producers,
considering the spirit of the per

CO US MUST BE
TAKEN TO TASK
For Bad Influence on Others
Time for Social Respons
ibility Sunday Sc-rmon.
Itev. John Imhof s)oke Sunday
morning at the First i.nristian :
I
church on the text: '"Where there is .
r.n i r. n tVio r.iinnlo jv) off re-
straint." "The Hebrew people," he
ia.id. "had many visions. leaders
spoke as those who w ere influenced j
oy some great force other than
themselvc?:. Prophets were sensitive
truth and put their message tn
liures of speech that left a deep
impression upon the people. They
spoke a moral messagre to satisfy the
inner life of their followers. The
Hebrews have left a record of their
life and work that shall be known
throughout the entire world because
they taught man in his relationship
i to God."
Preferring; to the coming; of the
Pilgrim fathers and what they ac
complished as an inspiring; illustra
tion of what can be done ry a small
sroup of people. Mr. Imhof said:
"There never has been a time when
a ision of the truth war more In
demand than at the present. The
world is in the midst' of Intense suf
fering; from starvation, wounds, and
broken ideals. The war has taught
us that sin Is real in the world, and
all the i roblems presented will not
be solved for many years to come.
In the war and after the war it Is
cur duty to be loyal to the best
knowledge of truth we have.
Howards for Humble.
"Improvements in travel should
help us prow in our work. An in
creased knowledge of geography and
history has made us more responsi
ble to Africa. China and South
America. William Corey got a vision
of India with a map before him.
Our wonderful opportunities give us
tasks that few men fully realize.
"It is a time for emphasis on
character. Rewards should be given
those who are humbTe, helpful and
Christlike. The vicious must be
taken to task for their bad influ
ence upon others. This is a time
for social responsibility. The church
like an individual if It would find
itself It must lose itself to tho
great principles of life for which it
stands. Every community has tasks
too important to be passed by with
out careful study and earnest ef
fort. The highest form of patriot
ism is in demand. The men and
millions movement comes with an
appeal that every member should
face prayerfully, thoughtfully and
squarely. As the 20th century lim
ited used to go across the country
toward New York, usually on time,
with wonderful poise and terrific
speed, so the individual should move
toward the king of God with faith,
vision and effort."

Gathering.
Nearly .100 people enjoyed the in-

at S t Jo enhK hall Sunday evening:. !
Entertainment was provided by the

university, and the Liberty orches
tra. The committee in charge of
the affair was composed of Messrs.
W. A. Kraus, W. H. lloerstman, A.

Weber. The second and third de
grees were confened Sunday after

ants of Fort Wayne.
George A. Lang, acting as chair
man and toastmaster, introduced the
speakers of the evening, District
Deputy James F. Kines and ex-Sen.
Robert E. Proctor. The audience
was afforded a delightful surprise in
the person of the Belgian consul,
Dr. Cyriel Yermeren ot Chicago,
who addressed the audience. Dr.
Yermeren was in the city Saturday
evening to assist at the mass meet
ing of the Pelgian people.
Tells of Knighthood.
Prof. Hines spoke on "Knight
hood and Service." and told of the
order from the time of its inception
to the present, showing the ideals
for which it has stood and proving
beyond possibility of question its pa
triotic devotion to the government.
He related the historical facts of
America's birth, when Columbus
braved the terrors of the unknown
seas to establish a new nation, and
offered as evidence the part the
church has played in the nation's
history, the heroism of LaSalle, Mar
quette, Balboa and others of the
early explorers.
That the knights have stood glor
iously firm in all time3 of the na
tion's peril and distress. wa shown
by Prof. Hines. who described the
part they have taken- in even war
since the revolution, in which La
fayette played so noble a part and
down to the present war which has
called to the colors '.he flower of
America's Catholic manhood.
Describing the courage and hero
ism of Belgium, to whom he paid
tribute. Prof. Hines stated that the
world has found a new Leonidas in
the brave Cardinal Marcier of Bel
gium. He concluded by stating that
he conceived a vision of the new
peace treaty which is to corne when
the allied nations have vanquished
their common foe. at which the
church will be represented as a de
fender and supporter of the glorious
Stars and Stripes.
Dr. Yermeren Speaks.
Dr. Yermeren. when called upon,
told of the knighthood of Belgium,
and in their name presented the
greetings of the little nation to their
brothers in America. He paid lov
ing tribute to Albert, king of the
Belgians-, and the knight of knights,
and to Cardinal Marcier and the
generals of the Belgian army who
nave achieved fame in the present
war.
Dr. Yermeren reviewed the kais
er's boast that he would lunch in
Paris, but declared that the little
i Belgians, who stood in his way.
spoiled the broth. He remarked that
it would require only den. Persh
ing's efforts to totally discourage the
war lord in his ambitions to lunch
In Paris. In honor of the distin
guished isitor the audience rose and
sang one stanza of "America."
Ex-Sen. Proctor's address was
thoroughly patriotic in character,
and he reviewed the part which the
Knights of Columbus have played at
all previous times in the country's
history and will continue to play.
He appealed strongly to the loyalty
of his audience and urged them to
stand back of the president in every
undertaking.

BATTELL PARK
NUT GET STA'
Resident Offers to Defray
Half of Cost of New
Comfort Station.
As an inducement to bring about
the erection of a comfort station in
naiteu park, a
living near the
resident of the city
park has presented
to the board of public works an of
fer to defray half of the expenses
of euch an improvement up to the
sum of $1.000. This is a facility
badly needed in the north side park
and repeated petitions have been
made to the city to take care of
the situation. The matter is being
considered and will in all probabil
ities result in the much needed im
provement. Bids on the Beiger st. tewcr,
which have been proposed were
submitted by Staples and Ackerman
at the board meeting Monday morn
ing, the estimated cost to be $2 on
the regular 12-inch sewer pipe. The
matter was referred to Engineer
Stevens. No bids were fc'Jbmitted
on the Peiger st. pavement.
Petitions lYcscntol.
A petition was submitted by the
Frank Lumber Co. for water mains
in three houses on Jefferson st. The
matter was turned over to the su
perintedent of the water depart
ment, A. R. Klein. William Peters
presented a petition for electric
lights in his residence at Beiger and
Seventh ts.
With the signatures of O. P.
Smitley and Fred Byam. a petition
was presented asking that a sewer
be constructed on Cleveland st. This
matter was also taken under advise
ment. In the hearing on the Short
and Ell st. sewer assessments, one
remonstrator appeared. His objec
tion w-ae based on a dispute of the
survey of his property. The assess
ment roll was confirmed.
City Itatos Not AfTcoted.
City Atty. Ralph Jernegan re
ported on the matter of an increase
in the rates of the C.. S. B. and X.
T. Ry. Co. The proposed increase
will not affect the local lines, as
previously supposed, but, according
to a communication received from
T. F. G rover and IL R. Waare of
the company, will involve only the
tnterurban lines.
Street Commissioner Charles Doo-
little reported on the condition of
the Logan st. road south from town
about which a complaint and peti
tion was tiled two weeks ago by
residents south of the city. The
road is, according to the commis
sioner, in as good condition a it is
possible to maintain with permanent
improvement.
In the matter of the east end park
! improvement, it was reported that
no action has been taken following
the submitting of plans by the
Swain-Nelson landscape Gardening
Co. of Chicago. The president of
the company, A. C Nelson, was in
the city during the past week and
made a proposition to the city
whereby the park site might be
developed. The Swain-Nelson Co.
has only recently completed a $100,
000 contract in Detroit.
