Dr. Handley In Trenchant Mood Suggests Formation Vigilant Society For City POPULAR PREACH KR DELIVERS MASTERLY DISCOURSE OX THE GENTLENESS AND SEVERITY OF CHRIST. FLAYS INCREASE OF BOOTLEGGING IN OCEAN CITY

John Hanilley was in no mood for honeyed words on Sunday evening. The popular pastor has 'been heard frequently in a tender, sympathetic vein, to good cfTeet; but on Sunday evening, ■ metaphorically speaking, Dr. ■ Handley hail his coat off and his 1 sleeves rolled up. Fire flashed ' from his eye as in terms of un- 1 measured scorn and indignation lie denounced the bootleggers, and all who aid and abet them in ne- ' Carious traffic. ' The subject of Dr. Hundley's discourse was the "Gentleness and > Severity of Christ" or Christ v making friends and enemies. 1 Dr. Handley repudiated the conception, perhaps far more common t thtfii supposed that Christ was a c man of a somewhat effeminate 1 character. I Doubtless, as Dr. Handley stat- >' cd, this very mistaken idea orig- > inated from the paintings of the old masters and from the tra-.b dilional Christ of art, a face in- e variably womanlike in expression, « and in the cast of the features, d But as the preacher emphasized * the Christ of art is not the Christ ci of the New Testament.

The Christ of the New Testament is a verile man, a rugged man, a courageous and fearless man. He could be kind as a woman, and as gentle as a mother; ' but when the occasion arose, he could become the embodiment rf i righteous anger and wrath. j I And because Christ was such a - manly man, he made more enemies : < than friends. : 1 "The humanness of Chirst is ! i His peculiar charm," said Dr. 1 Handley. "Man must have an ideal : * to follow and emulate, and the 1 I verdict of history pronuonces j ! Christ to have been the ideal man. , 1 Every inch a man." The predominating quality in 1 the character of Christ was His | < fidelity to truth, and His uncom-|I premizing allegiance to His con- ( vlctions. I ■

0 Christ courted no man's favor, - and feared no man's frown, lie r came to tell as well as to reveal 1 the truth. I Hading a spiritless, hypocritical ; and worldly church, He denounced . its leaders as vipers, whited-sepui- • chres -<»nd hypocrites. He looked I them i squarely in the face and told . thSTrilth. i In a lesser <legrec, Roosevelt,' I Washington, and Lincoln were of a like calibre; and like Christ they made many enemies. "No man can declare hET conI victions, or indeed hold any convictions without making enemies," Handley declared . "In standing for your convic-1 tions, and for the right as you conceive it, enemies may ruin you. ' may rob you of everything holds dear. You may have to Calvary a man and a hero." Calvary a man anda hero." Applying these pungent truths' to modem problems. Dr. Handley cnumcrated sevcrfil things against which every Christian,, and every 1 American citizen should arm himself and herself for battle, at any.'

He 'referred first to the subtle 1 covert effort, that is being made 1 I ] by certain people to discredit American history, and to bring 1 [ America's heroes to shame anil . ' ridicule. Tflen again, Dr. Handley refer- 1 red to the efforts, strenuous ef- ' forts, being made by certain per- I , sons, who, some for political, and ;others for religious reasons, are ' ! determined that the Bible shall ' \ not lie taught in the public schools, j ' ' He . quoted 'a judge out west, c i who claimed the Bible should not ' bp taught in the schools, because ' j the Bible was sccturian. "The I | of the United States," ' said Dr. Handley, "is compelled ; I law to take the oath of office ' ion the Bible; consequently if the I Bible Is sectarian, the American t government and constitution is i ' I sectarian."

Dr. Handley further made /un eloquent plea for the cancellation by America of all war debts. By so doing America would exemplify to the world the very doctrines she preached to the world. It was however when Dr. Handy ley came to the question of prohibtion and the enforcement of the eighteenth amendment, that the iN full force of his impassioned message was felt. He referred with evident pride to the recent convention held in Toronto, when 66 nations had declared for world r, prohibition. le "The eyes of the world are upon id America," said Dr. Handley, "watching carefully the results of ill the new law. Under no condixl lions therefore, can we allow bootleggers, and officials of the law vl who refuse to enforce the law, to Id make us ridiculous before the t, The time has come when even e Ocean City should form a vigilant e society, to see that the law is .. properly enforced, and those who i- traffic in poison are brought to i- the liar of justice." From beginning to end the discourse was heard in breathless - silence by the large ocngregation u present, and that a very deep imi. I pression had been made was very g manifest.
