U'Waflhington. Jan. 11.—An interna
denal agreement with all, “or prac
imy all” nations which will guaran
tee an end of competition in navy
puilding was presented as the only
afternative to the building by the
United \States of a navy powertui
enough to cammand the respect and
fear of the world by Secretary Dan
isls in his testimony today belore the
house naval affairs committee.
Secretary Daniels dismissed as un
worthy of discussion the third propo
sal for an American navy less than
one equal to the most powerful sea
power in the world, because it is a
waste of money to spend money on
an agency of war which would be
heipless if needed. |
Secretary said if he were asked ad.
vice by Harding he would suggest
that e new president invite tllOl
natit‘i)f the world- to meet withl
representatives of the United Stutesi
/in a disarmament conference, if the

\once a member of the league of na- |
tions. Characterizing the ‘“naval hol
iday” between the United Stutes,!

CIAL POSITION OF BRITAIN.
London, Jan. 11.—Financial articles
printed in the London Times this
morning say the outstanding event in
the city yesterday was the rise in
American exchange which closed at
three seventy for a pound Sterling,
an increase of twenty cents in the
value of a pound in a little more than
a week was explained as partly due
to the falling off in American export
trade; also to the improving finan

HARDING TRIMS
INAUGURAL OF
POMP AND SHOW
BALL AND SPECTACULAR PA.
RADE CUT iIN INTERESTS OF
PUBLIC THRIFT,
Marion, Jan. 11.-—lf Harding has
his way the inauguration of March
Fourth will be as devoid of trills as
a frontier wedding. having overturn
ed plans for the revival of the inaug
ural ball and the spectacular inaugu
ral parade. FHe indicated today that
so far as he consistently ¢ could, he
would keep away from whatever
crowds assembled in Washington for
the event.
Harding's preferences were made
known in telegrams he sent last night
to inaugural officialg in Washington
asking that in the interest of public
thrift, the ball, parade and every
other show of pomp and festivity be
omitted.
The time honored custom of deliv
cring the inaugural address which
has been observed since the forma
tion of the Republic is to be retained
as a part of the day's ceremonies.
but it is considered likley here that
it will be brief and couched in gen
eral terms,
Some Glad, Some Sad.
\\Hq%hingtuu. Jan. 11.—The an
uoncement that at the request of
Harding the Washington inaugural
~ommittee last night had cancelled
plang for a celebration in connection
with the inaugural was received her:
with varying emotions. Those who
apposed reviving the custom of mak
ing the occasion a gala one, chiefly
because of the expense involved, ex
pressed commendation, but gthers,
while sympathizing with the spirit
that prompted Harding's request,
showed keen disappointment.
The action of the commitee means
the parade, inaugural ball and other
features will be dispensed with.

It, was. 4 great Monday night
crowd. None of the SOO pecple who
attended the revival at the Baptist
church last night went to sleep dur
ing the service which lasted more
than two hcurs. Fop there wos not
a dull moment tro mstart tc finish.
The singing directed by Rev. Wal
Lice Wear was spiritual and inspir
ing and Evangelist Trigg A. M.
Thomas was at his bLest and preach
od a powerful sermon on Hell. Dr.
Thomas tock his text from Matthew
23:46 “These shall go away into
«rtm'x‘lal punishment; but the right
cous into eternal life,” and Matt. 25:
‘1 “Depart from me, ye cursed, into
the eternal fire which is prepared for
the devil and his angels.”
The evangelist also qucted Daniel
12:2, Luke 16:19-31. Jjohn 5:29, Jude
7 and Mark 9:44, 46, and 48. "Is
There a Hell? Let Jesus give the
answer, for He spoke the words ul‘i
my text,” said the evangelist. “There,
are, no doubt, some who wili eu-ulp({
the last part cf my text but reject
the first part of it. Please tell m(i
by whose logic yvou can accept one
nart of this verse which Jesus spnluf
and reject the other part of it. Heb.
9:27 says, ‘lt is appointed unte men
once to die, but after this the judge
ment.” None but fools and insane
people deny the first part of this
verse, but there are those who ac:
tually deny the last part and refuse
to believe in the judgement. It is
the ingenuous skill and logic of the
devil that prevents people from be
lieving and accepting the words and
truth of this Bible.
“Jesus plainly says that hell Ig
prepared, not foy vou, but for the dev
il and his ;nu..-'els. There is no known
place worse than hell for those who
reject Christ to go. so Jesus says:
‘Depart from Me, ve cursed, into eter
nal fire prepared for the devil and
his angels.” Those wo go to hell go
Ai)e(':ulst- they want to and nct Dbe
cause they have to, for God has pre
pared heaven for all wheo will accept
Christ as Savier and go there. Hell
is a necessity in view of the love f
God and the atonement of Christ.
“If there is ng hell, then the love
¢f God is a myrth! the Bible and
Christ shed his blocd in vain. |lf
there is no hell, the dying of Jesus
Christ upon the crooss was the hig-!
gest piece of foolishness that ever|
took place in this cld world. If tlmrvf
is no hell, then every preache: \\'lln;
believes and preaches the Bible is)
a fraud and should Le silenced. I|!
fact the preacher who does not bhe-!
lieve and preach the hell plainly!l
taught in the Bible should be sil~i
cnced. ' The most familiar verse in
the Bille is Jchn 23:16 which says
that Ged Sc loved the World, that
He gave His only bhegotten son, that
whoscever believeth in Him should
nct perish, but have everlasting life.
God’s great love did nct want peo
ple to perish in hell and He gave
Christ; and Christ died to prevent
it and to give eternal life instead ofl
eternal punishment. The dying of
Christ upon the cross proves Hlei
lcve of God to be genuine and at the
<ame time proves the awfulness and
reality of hell. Hell is a necessity
io make good the law of God. God's
law is love and God's love is law.
‘We find obedience and punishment
