Former Atlanta Pastor Says
He Will Mix in English
Politics.
LONDON, May 3.—Dr. Len G
Broughton has been received here with
open arms. The newspapers and the
people have welcomed him with more
than British zeal, and he, though much
reduced in vitality, has already outlined
a broad and comprehensive program by
which Christ church will regulate itself.
At Liverpool and in London large
crowds awaited his arrival. Members
of Christ church directorate immedi
ately took him in charge. It was not
tape. however, before he had taken
them in charge.
Dr. Broughton, on British soil, is
unchanged. He is still American to the
core. He still speaks in. quaint epi
grams. But none of this has served to
make him appear an alien to his con
gregation or the British people.
Who’s the Joke On?
“I thought it was a joke when I re
ceived a call to Christ church,” he told
a newspaper man. “They may wish, it
was a joke before I’m through."
His first act was to tell the congre
gation that the form of service would
be changed. The old Church of Eng
land ritual would be abolished, he said,
and a simpler service substituted. In
stead of provoking hostility this an
nouncement was received with broad
sympathy by the congregation.
Applied Christianity, said Dr.
Broughton, would be his motto. He
wants Christianity applied to every hu
man need.
“It will be my purpose,” he said on
his-first day in the pulpit, “to give my
self to a thorough study of these insti
tutions of the church, and also to the
needs of the district, with a view to
making existing institutions more ef
fective and adding to them such others
as may be needed to carry out the plans
and purposes of my ministry.
To Mix in Politics.
“But I do not propose to neglect the
pulpit nor do I propose to neglect the
church membership and congregation.
The plans I have in mind and which
are already agreed iron with the
church are such as will keep me, as
the pastor, in the closest possible touch
with the entire membership of the
church.”
Dr. Broughton also frankly confessed
that he would "mix up in politics" if he
thought it necessary.
“I wish it understood here and now,”
he said, “that I am not in any sense
averse to dealing with so-called politi
cal problems in the pulpit. I believe
distinctly that it is the preacher’s busi
ness to apply his preaching to every
phase of life, whether political or other
wise, and I shall assuredly reserve the
right to do so. But I shall have noth
ing to do with any movement, whether
in the church or out of it, that allows
Itself to be made a tool of any political
organization.”

Whiskers Will Soon Be
Fashion of Past, Says
Peachtree St Barber
Americans have quit wearing mus
taches—at least, that's what the bar
bers say. According to the belief of a
well known Peachtree whisker artist,
all forms of hirsute adornment will
have disapepared from the face of
American man Inside of ten* years.
This change in facial adornment is
not due altogether to the wishes of the
men. says this same authority. The
women are almost universal in their
demands that their husbands remain
smooth shaven, unless he has a facial
blemish. And the younger men follow
the pattern.
A poll of the men in an Atlanta bar
ber shop today revealed twelve smooth
shaven men and one with a beard.
WRONG CUT WAS USED
IN ADVERTISEMENT OF
AUSTIN ESTATE SALE
A five-column advertisement of an
administrator's sale of the J. A. Austin
estate at auction on Tuesday, May 12,
appeared in The Georgian yesterday.
The cut showing a diagram of the
property used in the advertisement was
not that intended to be used, as it
showed entirely different real estate.
The error came about by an order
from the advertiser on a job printing
office for the cut being misunderstood
by the job printer, who supplied The
Georgian with an entirely different cut.
The error was a somewhat natural one,
as the cuts were of the same size and
somewhat alike In shape and outline.
The cut used was that of the Peach
tree Heights property, which is not in
tended to be sold at this auction at all.
This has caused some embarrassment
to the owners of that property.
The right cut has now been supplied
and appears in the advertisement in
this Issue of The Georgian, to which
reference should be made for full un
derstanding of the enterprise. The er
ror was not that of The Georgian nor
of Mr. Ansley, but of the job printing
office which was the custodian of both
his cut and the Peachtree Heights cut.
