It was the equivalent of saying: “This nation cannot produce a better monarch than this; and this s the fate which all pretenders incur.” He was crucified in weakness because there was no other way for Him to save the world. He had emptied Him- self of His power and glory so that He might through the cross reveal to the world the love of God and the way of salvation. By His stripes we aled; by His weakness We are strong. ing the cross, depicting the s meant more then than now for Jesus. Instead of being disgraced by it, He has lifted the blood-stained cross and made it a symbol of the glory of His gospel. The tender- ted women lamented His fate. They loved Him' and revered Him. Christ heard their lamentations amidst the revilings of the wretched crowd as He struggled under the burden of toward Calvary. He spoke 1 words of comfort and com- that revealed “His unselfish for oth He thinks of when even more ruthless ould be done in the land. 1f of His loyal acceptance of Koman rule. which entitled Him to compare Himself with the ‘green tree, He was treated as He was, how much sorer would be the fate of those, Who would prove rebellious (dry)?” Luke recore three of the seven words spoken from the cross by the who spent most of the time ilence watchjng the events transpired at the foot of the »ss. while He was suffering the just for the unjust.

He was attracted by the "ds written beneath the paint- ing: did this for thee; what hast thou done for me?” He answered by £iving his life to the Lord Jesus. The result of the count’s consecration is seen in the missionary work of the Moravians that was inspired by Zine endorf’s visioh of Christ on the cross, Loyola, the founder of the Society of Jesus, had a similar experience when © Was a convalescent. It resulted in stablishing the missionary order that s girdled the globe in fulfillment of mission.

Ta- Ku the CHILD WELFARE PLAYS ARE TO BE REPEATED “Waterloo,” “The Clod” and | “Food” Presented Before Fashion- able Audience at the Playhouse. Threo one-act plays were given last evening at the Playhouse on N street by a group of the younger members of Washington_society for the benefit of the Child Welfare Society. They will be repeaged tonight. The performance was under the personal direction of Mr. Foxhall Daingerfield, and the audience, vhich more than cdmfortably filled the ll!llP' theater, was a fashionable one.

Miss Louise Ross Todd gave a finished and pro- fessional performance of Mary, the clod, and seemed to have completely lost herself in the character, even to her volce, which was as dead as the clod. Marfon Law’s Thad was typical of it's kind, and an excellent mate for Mary. Mr. Trushiem again appeared as a sergeant, this time a more violent and unpleasant, man at war. Mr. Jenny, as Dick, his alde, made the most of a small part. Winant Johnston played the spy, a part with few lines ana much action, both of which he did with good valance for the other players. “Food,” by Willlam De Mille, was the last play, and being a farce laid in the year 2098, was a splendid reaction from “The Clod.” Elizabeth Hanna was Irene, Mr. Law, Basil, and Mr. Johnston, Harold. Miss Hanna, who was the moving spirit in the produc- tion of these plays, acquitted herself equally well as an actress and as an executive, and gave her part the proper emotional temperament.
