BAPTIST MINISTER DEALS WITH
SCRIPTURE IN A
NEW LIGHT
Choosing "God’* Love” for a Subject,
Rev. McConnell Advance* Strong
Points in Last Night’s Sermon—Gift
Makes More Than Mars Automaton.
The revival meeting now in pro-
gress at the Green Avenue Baptist
church, Rev. Arthur McFaul pastor, is
Increasing in interest each day and
Rev. F. M. McConnell of Longview,
Texas, who is conducting the meet-
ing is preaching some splendid ser-
mons.
In speaking of the meetihg this
morning a prominent member of the
church stated that the meeting had
been wonderfully helpful to the mem-
bership of the church and that the at
tendance throughout the ten days
rhus expired has' been good. The
meeting will continue until next Sun-
day night, at which time it will be
brought to a close. *
One of the best, and many of the
congregation pronounce the sermon
last night, the best that Rev. McCon-
nell has yet preached.
Choosing for a subject "God's Love,”
from John 3:16, Rev. McConnell han-
dled the theme in-a new light, one
that has never been given before in
Orange and some strong points were
Injected into the sermon of Rev. Mc-
Connell dealt with a new exposition
of the Scripture, dealing as follows:
It was not with God’s love that saved
any man directly and that man was
sinful and justice had to be meted
out to him and if not directly meted
out to him, it meant eternal destruc-
tion, for he had no saving power with-
in himself.
Angels could not save, because man
Is s creature and subject to creature's
law*, as were angel*, therefore It must
be by one who ts above and beyond
the lavfs of creature. This Is not
existing among mortals or angels. It
must necessarily be a divine being,
hence, Jesus being both God and Man
could make himself the perfect of-
fering for sin and man assume the
nature of a creature, and subjects him-
self to the creature laws. As God,
be was divine and possessed excel-
lencies above that of the creature and
hence, was above the law of. the crea-
ture, satisfying all demands of law
and justice. His love is for all, as
many as believe in Him. God gave
to man those excellencies he possess-
es above any other creature and that
is free choice; he may accept or re-
ject. the prise at his own free will.
This gift of free choice Is greater
than any other in that it makes more
than an automaton and with promise
of becoming ultimately divine. On the
other hand, if he rejects Christ, he
chooses of his own free will, eternal
spiritual ruin.
There is no reason why men should
choose ruin instead of life. The plan
is so simple, the conditions so easily
met, that man must be willfully in-
sane in his rejecting Christ.
This sermon was listened to with
eager attention and much interest by
the good audience that was present
last night.
PERSONAL MENTION.
T. J. DufT, a prominent lawyer of
| Beaumont, Is spending the day in Or-
ange looking after business matters of
importance.
—C. J. Goodman of Fordyce, Ark, is
a recent business arrival in Orange.
. L. Gaston was among the busi-
ness arrivals in Orange today from
Beaumdnt.
“Under Southern Skies.”
Lottie Blair Parker, author of “Way
Down East,” and “Under Southern
Skies,” and "David Corson,” has
happy faculty in character drawing
that Is possessed by few dramatic
writers of the present day. Rape
daily is (his true of her beautiful
play of the South, "Under Southern
Skies,” that will be presented here
to-night at the Orange Theater.
The fineness of her characteriza
tlons, in minutesness and fidelity to
detoll, will be easily recognizable to
any one at all famitjar with plants
tion life in the South. The hot head-
ed, fire eating colonel whose dignity
is always being ruffled, and who con-
siders it necessary to adfange a duel
each time he thinks his "honah” has
been assailed, who in his courtly
grace reminds us of the word pic
tures of the Southern cavaliers who
wdre famous a hundred years ago,
again we find the mlchlevous child,
Anner Lieer” full of pranks, prac-
tical jokes and animal spirits, re-
minding us at times of the antics
of a monkey and unconsciously bring-
ing the Darwinian theory back to our
minds.- Another character in the
play that makes a strong Impression
upon the audience is “Aunt Doshy.”
one of the familiar faithful type of
servants In Southern homes a genera-
tion ago, who, when freedom came,
elected to remain with the family to
whom they had belonged, rather than
go amongst strangers. A faithful
ally of the master and mistress, more
friend than servitor. These and many
other characteristics are drawn by
Mrs. Parker in a life-like and nat-
ural manner and so distinctive are
the different characteristic that the
spectator's Interest is appreciably en-
hanced tlfsreby.
All the sunshine of the South, all
the chivalry of Its gentlemen, all the
beauty of its women In truth, the
whole atmosphefe of the Magnolia-
scented South, is In "Under Southern
Skies.” The art of Lottie Blair Par-
ker Is a natural one, a* witnessed her
Way Down East.” This art, she has
brought to bear In “Under Southern
Skies,” with remarkable success.

FLORENCE DAVIS.
Florence Davis, who ha* become, in
past seasons, one of the most popular
stars in the South, whose cleyer pre-
sentations of charming comedies have
for her a large following here,
who indeed stands at the head
of her own unique class, will play
her annual engagement with her ex-
cellent company of players, including
Elliott Dexter, at Orange Theater,
Thursday night, September 24.
This season Miss Davis’ starring ve
hide is a new comedy by Henry V.
Esmond, “Under the Greenwood
Tree,” which is being presented for
the first time on tour in America,
under the direction of the Garrick
management. Miss Davis has the
same picturesque and elaborate pro-
duction seen at the Garrick Theatre
in New York last season and at the
Lyric Theatre in London. It was in
this piece that Maxine Elliott made
her greatest succets on both sides
of the Atlantic, and it was on ac-
count of her decision to make a new
production for the opening of the new
Maxine Elliott Theatre in New York,
that she relinquished the play to Miss
Davjs. The steliar role of Mary Ham
llton In “Under the Greenwood Tree"
Is a young millionaire, who, to eseap*
the conventionalities of society, goes
Into the seclusion of the country snd
lives In a gypsy van. She baa many
adventures, both humorous and ro-
mantic, Including an unexpected love
affair with the handsome young squire
upon whole lands she happen* to e»
camp, and an encounter with real gyp
ale*, leading a etaoln cmfwypmmmm
ales, lending a melodramatic incident,
by way of variety, to the light and
airy atmosphere and comedy element
that prevails throughout the four acts.
It Is written In Esmond's be*t vei*,
and displays the same brlltant re-
partee, flights of, wit, rich humor,
vivid human nature and pretty love
interests that characterize his “When
We Were Twenty-One" and other de-
lightful comedies. From all reports,
this work gives Miss Davis the fullest
opportunities she has ever had, and
the role of Mary Hamilton, the he-
roine, is pronounced the most appro-
priate this popular star has yet been
setin iD. The scenic production and
costumic embellishments are de-
scribed as most artistic, picturesque
and comprehensive, and her manage-
ment announce this as the heaviest
and most expensive equipment Mins
Oavis ha* ever carried WtCft her on

ing mistakes of the worst sort mis-
takes that tend to rattle the dry bones

board. Recently she allowed her
tongue to run away with her, as usual,
the reshit of which was that she very
much embarrassed ltoth her father
and mother, although the guests teem-
ed delighted.
I had a very serious talk with her
and impressed upon her. or tried to,
that she must not tell any family
secret. The next time we had com-
pany she was permitted to come .to
the table only by promising that she
wouldn’t utter a wont.
* She behaved beautifully and had
nothing to say until the dessert was
about to be taken away. Then her
lips began to quiver, and finally she
buret Into tears.
“Why, what's the matter, darilngt”
her mother asked.
“I—I want some more ice cream. If
that isn't a family secret,” she walled
