Frank Norris to lay preached his regular Sunday m rning sermon from the text: "There no condemnation to them that are n Christ Jesus." Standing within fifty feet of the ch irch study where Chipps was killed \v> <.-n he called to protest against cer '.j: n utterances of the widely known Baptist pastor, Dr. Norris told one of ? largest Sunday audiences he ever h>.s commanded that his faith wa.? .! onger than ever. 1 he large First Baptist Church au ditprium which seats 0,000, was filled to the doors with many standing and several hundred outside. Before Dr N >rris started preaching a choir of 701) voices sang hymn after hymn while two pianos with relays of ,-ianis;; fi rnished the music. When Dr. Norris finished speaking several hundred of his congregation sauntered down to the front of the church to shake the preacher's hand as h" stood before the platform. Many embraced him and at this point Dr. Norris showed the only suggestion that the tragedy affected him. Ho neither smiled nor nodded, but ap j reared to be on the verge of tears, and foemed to be unable to speak be cause of emotion. While this, service was in progress, Chipps* friends pre pared for the latter'? funeral this ?f ernoon. r Local .Man With Marine.-; Views ?n*s(|ui < Centennial Philadelphia, Pa., July ID.? -Taking 1 art in the celebration of the liOth ajjniversary of American independ ence, Herbert Pascal Young, of Cum den, S.
