men following the prevailing fash
ions of indecent dress, the young
women in the lustful shambles of
the modern dance, the voung men
and boys devotees of the deadly
cigarette and the moving picture

and religion in this country when
we look toward the future. A
great upheaval and mighty revo
lution is surely needed. Let the
pulpit and the press lake the lead.

Dancing from U p. m. to 4 a. m.
by the young people of Atlanta
has so stirred the mothers of that
town that a mass meeting was
called Thursday afternoon to pro
test against long hours at the
dance. These mothers have tak
en hold of the wrong end of the
dilemma. They ought to ban the
whole dancing craze, instead of
trying to shorten the hours. The
modern public dance is but a lust
ful shambles where virtue is cru
cified, and young people are for
warded on the road toward low
ideals and low morals at a fearful
pace. There is not one spark of
good in the modern dance. It is
only evil and that continually.

protracted meeting was announced
to include the first Sunday in Au
gust, the evangelist and singer to
named later. Rev. McClanhan, of
Atlanta, preached at Old Liberty
church Saturday night and Sunday
afternoon. Pastor Bob Cook was
