SING SOMETHING, SEMPLE

It is to save "bawdy Boston" from absolute perdition that Aimee Semple McPherson Hutton arrived here yesterday, appropriately enough, by air. Accompanied by her latest husband and numerous others she was received by Mayer Curley, and then she proceeded to the Italian suite of the hotel Lenox.

On Saturday night she will start her meetings at the Boston Garden, and she has already announced interesting pageants on Heaven and Hell with angels and flames, which will aid in converting the facinorous. "A thousand sinners saved each night would be a good average", she said just before leaving Los Angeles. At the same time Brother Hutten's statement that the meetings will cost about three thousand dollars a night makes one wonder if the price of souls has gone down in proportion with that of living. The plan for a complete "baptistery" on the Common was a stroke of genius. The daily thousand immersed, beginning to be sure on Saturday, will do no end of good towards the "cleaning up of Boston."

Especially appropriate is one of her scheduled sermons called "Bride Adorned." Her sex-appeal has always been one of her strongest qualities consecrated to the Lord. But "the greatest showman since Barnum" ought to have though of having all her various husbands standing behind her, at least during this particular sermon, as a living proof to the sceptical.
