HARRY LAUDER'S COSPEL.
Harry Lauder addressed an audience of about twelve hundred people at Castle Green Congregational Church, Bristol, on a recent Sunday afternoon, and took as his subject the power of sociability. He spoke of the sociability of the home circle. "I want to tell! you, as a man of vast experience," he declared, "that there is no social life to be compared for effectiveness and beauty to a bonny home circle." He said he had no patience with boys who "cheeked" their mother and father. "I am proud to say I have a son who never spoke back to his mother or his father. To begin with, if he had grimly, but when the audience began to laugh he joined in heartily. "I have always lived on the sunny side of the street," he declared. "All the pictures I have shown you I have experienced—from mill tec mine, from mine to stage, from stage to draw-ing-room,, from drawing-room to castle—all the way up." The comedian sang during the afternoon "The Children's Home" and "There is a Green Hill."
