TIIE MORXTXG OREGOXIAX, MONDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1906. IN E IN THE CHURCH Or. Brougher Suggests Milk Diet for Members ' of Different Classes. SERMON AT WHITE TEMPLE Knockers, Sectarians, Backsliders, Feeble and 1'ndeveloped Chris tiana Called Infants in Discourse on "Milk and Buttermilk.'" Knockers In the church, sectarian church members, backsliders, feeble Chris tians and undeveloped Christians are babes and need milk and plenty of It, too, according to Dr. J. Whttcomb Brougher, who spoke at the White Templa lRst night upon, "ililk and Buttermilk." The knockers and the backsliders and the oth ers included In the category, so says Dr. BrouRher, are bibles. The services last night at the White Temple were opened with baptism, illss Grace Kemp, the organist, rendered spe cial numbers, as did the quartette. The congregational singing was led by Mr. Belcher. Dr. Brougher said In part: "Accepting the,Bible teaching that milk is good for babies, let us notice for a few moments some people who would come under this characterization. Knockers in the church need milk. Paul and Peter both agree upon this point. Paul says, 'Wheraa there Is among you jealousy and strife, ye are carnal and babes. Peter says that envy and es'll speaking and hy pocrisy should be put away, 'and as new born babes they should desire the sincere milk of the word.' The jealous and envi ous church members, whose chief occupa- tlon Is to find fault, is declared upon the authority of Paul and Peter, to be a big baby that ought to go to living on milk, get over dyspepsia, and go to speaking well of other people. Church Members Should Be Broad. "Sectarian church members are babes and need milk. I bellove in denomina tional loyalty, but the Baptist who be comes so narrow that he cannot see any good in other denominations, is a babe and needs to grow in the spirit of his master. I have known some Methodists In this city who were so bitter in their opposition to the Baptist Church that they threatened to make their daughters leave home if they joined it. I talked with a Presbyterian one day, who ciuld not have shown a more narrow or bigoted spirit In Ills opposition to the devil than he pre sented In his objections to Vhe Baptist Church. I believe in having convictions and being faithful to the truth, but we can have this and still join with other loyal Christians in winning the world for Christ. "Backsliders are babes and need milk. We have too many Indifferent and luke warm churchmembers who are more of a hindrance than a' help in advanolng the interests of Christ and the church. No church can succeed and have its rolls padded with members who are inconsist ent, indifferent and negligent. Feeble church members are also babes. "Undeveloped church members are also babes and need milk. A Christian should grow. If he does not, the world has a right to be disappointed in him. A man should be a better Christian one week after his conversion than he was one week before he was converted. The Christian life ought to be marked by a continual growth in knowledge, in faith, la power and experience. A Christian cannot develop a holy life on adulterated $od. He cannot grow strong spiritually, tihtcn he neglects the daily study of the BKle and lives merely on the newspaper, the novel and the secular reading." CELEBRATE FEAST OF ROSARY Elaborate Services ConVmemorate Conquest of Mohammedanism. With medieval solemnity and splendor the anniversary of the battle of' Lepanto, A. D. 1571, when Mohammedanism was overthrown and driven from Europe, was commemorated at Holy Rosary Church, Union Avenue and Clackamas streets yes terday. The ceremony is called the "Feast of the Holy Rosary." and in addi tion to commemorating the triumph of Christian arms over the Turks In 1571, it is also in thanksgiving for all divine favors granted through the devotion of the rosary. There was aJarge congregation present. Services began at 10:30 A. M. with the Asperges and blessing of the roses, which were then distributed to the congrega tion. This ceremony was followed by Mprh mass. Rev. Father Lamb, O. P., delivered the discourse on "The Rosary, Its Many Advantages and the Lessons It Inculcates." After the sermon the Rosary Confra ternity of the city, the Third Order of St. Dominic, the Rosarian and Holy Names Society, with the congregation, formed the rosary procession. The order of the procession was as follows: Aco lytes and crossbearers, children in white with the banners of the Joyful Mysteries. Rosariajis and Third Order women with the banners of the Sorrowful Mysteries, Holy Names Society with the banners of the Glorified Mysteries, the rosary statues carried by members of the Holy Names Society, followed by the priests. The music was by the Holy Rosary choir. As a souvenir each person taking part In the procession was presented with a folder containing information about the confraternity of the rosary and the in dulgences. Evening devotions were held at 7:30 o'clock, which consisted of a rosary pro cession, sermon by Rev. Father Lawler, benediction, enrolling Into the confrater nity and the blessing of the rosaries. The choir consisted of the following eingers: Tenors J. P. Wild man. J. Bell, D. A. Morris, J. E. Malley. F. Barret. E. Goalts, J. H. Cass: bassos E. Alstock, Dr. J. P. Goray, T J. Neeson, F. E. Higgins, L. Manning. Freeman, J. P. Hoben, E. J. Campbell, B. J. Wlnmonnan, E. C. Masten. NEW PASTOR OCCUPIES PULPIT Rev. E. S. Bollinger Preaches- at Highland Congregational. Rev. E. S. Bollinger, the new pastor of the Highland Congregational Church, held his initial services yesterday morn ing, and was greeted by a large congre gation. In his morning talk and sermon the new pastor outlined to some extent what his policy as a minister and preach er will be. Ho said that his first object will be to get into touch with the young people and the strangers. He would search out the newcomers and make them welcome to Highland Church even be fore getting acquainted with the mem bership. "Wo should get into touch with strangers," he said, "as the first move ment of this pastorate." He then preached his morning sermon on "Helpfulness of Christ." He pointed out that the world Is much the same as It was when Christ was on earth, a fact hat might bo shown by observing the crowds on the streets. There Is the same need of help now as then. "I want to say that every sermon that I shall preach from this pulpit," de clared Rev. Mr. Bolinger, "will recog nize the want of Jesus Christ and the necessity of bringing Him into the lives of the people. Busy men and women when they come to church want to get something that will' uplift them or they will not come. A young man who laid plans to rob his employer, a business man who had made a failure in busi ness and a mother who had lost her child went to a church, each to get a benefit. The music was excellent, but the sermon did not fit their cases. The young man went away and robbed his employer, the business man left the church despondent and the heart of the bereaved mother was not soothed. They got nothing out of the service. The preacher gave them nothing. - and they went away empty. Perhaps that young man would not have gone wrong had he heard the real mes sage of God from the pulpit. Life is a failure without Christ. We must have the bread of life now. We must be brought into touch with the stars, the living waters." Rev. Mr. Bolinger was received with great cordiality by the congregation. Next Friday evening a welcome recep tion will be tendered' him and his wife at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Mann, East Eighth and Going streets. ST. IGNATIUS A DOGMATIST. Father O'Hara Continues Series of Historic Addresses. Continuing the sermon delivered a week ago yesterday on the Catholic Church 1S0O years ago. Father O'Hara spoke last night at the Cathedral upon "Primitive Christianity, a Dogmatic Religion." Father O'Hara declared that the indi vidual who stood up above all others of the Christian Church 1B0O years ago was St. Ignatius, Bishop of Antloch. He said that a study of the letters written by this illustrious priest will do away with the idea that early Christianity was an undogmatic religion. The Cathedral was filled last night with an appreciative audience. His sermon of a week ago attracted much oomment and the one of last night was considered by the audienoe as equally strong and mas terful. Father O'Hara last night said in part: "The most striking and interesting per sonality in the Christian Church 1S00 years ago was the illustrious Bishop of Antloch, St. Ignatius. After a long life spent in apostolic labor he was thrown into chains because of his faith and hav ing been brought to the capital city by order of Emperor Trogan "to make a Roman holiday,' was devoured by wild beasts in the presence of 70,000 or SO.OOO spectators. The sands of the Flavian amphitheater were consecrated by his blood; what remained of his bones were carefully collected by the Syrian Chris tians and borne in triumph through all the cities from Rome to Antloch. "Ignatius was a martyr in the original sense of that term, that is a witness to the Christian faith. In the lonsr Journev from Antloch to Rome he either visited personally or met representatives of the chief Christian communities of his dav. To these communities he addressed letter-3 wnieh were read publicly in those churches every Sunday and which for tunately are still preserved. The spirit of an apostle breathes in every line of these precious records, which are marked by a dignity of style which makes them classic. jt' "The idea that early Christianity was an undogmatic religion Is definitely dis pelled by a study of the letters of St. Ignatius. The Christian communities pic tured hy him have a horror for heresy and schism. 'If any man followeth one that maketh a schism, he doth not in herit the kingdom of God." The widely separated churches to whom Ignatius wrote Vere 'established in faith immov able' concerning Jesus Christ, that he was the true God. truly born of a virgin was truly crucified and died under Pontius Pilate; as also he truly raised himself from, the dead and was seen in the flesh after the resurrection by the apostles. In deed several passages in the letters of Ignatius are merely expounded forms of the apostolic creed, to every article of which assent is expected as a matter of course. Such was the universal creed of tha-XatholIc Church in the days of Ia natius. "St. Ignatius is a witness to the con tinuity of Catholic faith. He stands on the threshold of the sub-apostollc age His youth was passed as a disciple of the apostles: his writings are a monu ment to the divine origin of a faith as venous toaay as it was 18 centuries ago." "UNITY IN THE FAITH." Theme of Dr. Ghnrmley at Central Christian Church. "Unity in the Faith" was Dr. Ghorm leys theme at the Central Christian Church yesterday morning. His text was, ' There Is one body and one spirit even as ye are called in one hope of your call ing. One Lord, one faith, one baptism. One God and Father of all, who is above nil, and through all, and in you all." Ho said: The student of nature is impressed with nn all-pervading intelligent force, upholding and directing the universe. The Invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead. The heavens declare the glory of God and the firmament showeth His handi work. God hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and Jesus the Christ is the only unllyln. spiritual force among nations. All rellxions have failed. It is a proposition capable of scientific demonstration that "Jesus Is the Christ, the Son of God," and that God has made known unto us the mystery of this will, according to His good pleasure, which He hath purposed in himself, that in the dispensation of the fullness of time He mlffht gather together in one. all thinss in Christ. The human agency ordained of God to ex press this truth to the world Is the church u"" " Plar and ground of the truth. The one holy spirit animates It. The spirit to one, but there are many gifts in the church. The one body, the church goinr about doing good and holding forth the word of life, seeking the lost and reproducing in the world His likeness is proof supreme of our- Lord's divinity.

CHURCH YEAR ENDS Grace - Congregation Shows Large Increase. HOLD RALLY DAY SERVICE Stirring Addresses, Encouraging Re ports and Beautiful Music Char acterize Morning and Eve ning Worship. Yesterday was a great day in the Grace Methodist Episcopal Church. It was membership day and communications had been sent to all the members by the of ficial board. The audience was the larg est seen for many months, and the musio and addresses were very inspiring. The pastor, Dr. Clarence True Wilson, re ported that the membership was now at high-water mark, being the largest at any time in the history of the church. The offerings last year were in advance of any previous year and the gain in membership and congregation very en couraging. Dr. Wilson appealed for more active work in all departments and told several thrilling stories of Christian work in con nection with the church. A card was handed to every one present for correct name, address, occupation and the de partment of Christian work, to which each one would prefer to be assigned. He then called forward the new board of trustees, consisting of F. S. Akin, J. K. Gill, Dr. Richmond Kelly, Philip Beuhner, J. Ll. Hartman, M. B. Rankin, John Corkish, J. E. Haeeltine and J. P. Rasmussen. They were Installed for the year's work in a most impressive manner, their duties explained, and the Importance of the work committed to each pointed out. He commented on the harmony that prevail ed and thanked the board for its hearty co-operation. The board of stewards was called to the chancel and similarly installed. The members are, Everett F. Allshaw, F. A. Clary, F. W. Miller, L. O. iRalston, J. W. Wiseman, Alfred A. Baker, S. S. Gilles pie, George J. Kirkland, Dr. Osmon Royal, F. W. Chown, E. T. Johnson, John Pri deaux, L. C. Shorno. The responses by J. K. GilL the presi dent of the trustees and by Dr. Osmon Royal, president of the stewards, were hearty and appropriate to the opening of a new conference year. Then W. G. J. Kirkland, the church treasurer, gave - a report that was most encouraging and an address that was well received. The music was a feature of the morn ing service. The congregational singing "for which the church is noted was never better and the solo by the new tenor, C. C. Richard, made a deep impression. The great congregation went away with the feeling that the prospect of Grace Church is brighter than ever before, and all seemed to predict a prosperous year of work. The platform meeting of the evening was even more notable. Eight speakers had been selected by the committee to represent all branches of the work of Grace Chureh, and their addresses were all well received. The choir, consisting of Miss Ethel M. Lytle, Miss Ethel M. Shea, George H. Street and C. C. Richard, rendered "Jerusalem" very effectively. The tenor solo by W. G. Hodson created great Interest. The following elsrht rallv day addresses were delivered, the pro gramme interspersed witn songs: "Rally to Our Sunday School." Edward Drake, assistant superintendent; "Rally to our Ladles' Aid," Mrs. u. O. Ralston. president; "Rally to Our Ep worth League." F. S. Stiles, president; "Rally to ur erotnernooa." Scott Bozorth. tires. ident; "Rally to Our Home Missionary eociety," Aliss Anna Rankin, secretary "Rally to Our Foreign Missionary So ciety," Mrs. Dr. Kelly, president; "Rally .rtroima ur -ew Memners," F. A. Clary "Rally Around Our Pastor," E. C. Frost. ur. Wilson made a ringing address in concluding the most notable evening ser vice ever neld In Grace Church. While it was late when the service was dis missed, many remained to talk over the advances or the year with evident satis faction. The pastor and the presiding elder Dr. w. a. riomngshead, will be given a re ception by the church members on Fri day night in the church parlors. A liter. ary and musical programme with refresh ments win Be given on that evening. PREACHES FROM MINOR TEXT Dr. House Chooses Passage From Writings of Paul. Dr. E. L. House at the first Congrega tional Church yesterday morning took for nis suDject, -"Paul's Cloak, Books and i-arcnments.- At night Dr. House lec tured upon .rjgypt, which was illustrated wiuj Biereopucon views. Part of the uurn;ng sermon follows: Paul. In writing to Timothy, said: "Tha cloak I left at Troas with Carpus, when thou comest, bring with thee, and the books, but especially the parchments." There is a great deal of meaning hidden in thase words. THey are not trivial, but throw quite a good deal of light upon the last days of Paul. If you Btudy themelosely you will discern that they imply that Paul was a poor man. The sum total of his possessions were these thlngn. A poor Inventory of a great man's possessions not worth a hundredth part of what a buf foon would get for one Jest In Nero's palaoo. But he would not exchange his possessions even with Nero. And his last letter is more of a "paean" than a "miserere." There are a great many poor people in the world, made so by circumstances. Man's history Is not one of affluence, but one of Indigence. But this has been a blessing. Poverty has sup plied the world with most of the kings It boasts of. Palaces have not cradled - the kings of thought, service and achievement. Peul was poor, and yet rich. And then these words Indicate the fact that this grand man was exposed to hardships. He was cold and would make himself more comfortable. If he could. We discover that men and women are not exempt from the hardships of life. And who knew this better than Paul? He had said to Timothy: "En dure hardness as a good soldier of Jesus Christ." We know that the life of a soldier is subjected to hardships. The men are to move where the general thinks best. They may be wheeled about on parade, or up to the cannon's mouth, or even to prison. But the Christian soldier, like Paul, knows that his cause Is sure of victory, and that no in justice is agoing to be done him by his com mander. Nothing will be required of him that violates his conscience or convictions. And then this text suggests that Paul was partially deserted. Where were the Roman Christians who met him a few years before. BO miles out of the olty. "Why should they not give him a cloak? Evidently in the hour of his distress he to deserted. Yes, often times one's friends desert him. Man may have lost his money; the four hundred have no use for him. A man's wife may desert him be cause he can no longer support her in lux ury. The children are afraid the old folks will come on to their hands to be cared for. And so It goes through life. Now look at these books. They will add a little comfort and will help to pass away the time. Paul would read parts of Isaiah and the Psalms and remember how God had cored for his servants of old. What a com fort books are! But choose the best. - V And what about the parchments? He would put them in evidence as to what be baa said. Our words are our soul's revelator. There are springs of influence in the words we speak. Thy will be put In evidence some day. We are writing upon something snore delloats than parchments human souls. And now Paul did have some friends. We know that Luke, Carpus and Timothy loved him unto the end. And we shall have friends to meet our necessities. They may not ap pear until the hour of trial, but they will come. And remember that Christ Is the great friend, who never leaves us. TRUTH THE ULTIMATE GOAIi Desire of It a Magnet Toward God, Says Pastor. Dr. A. A. Morrison preached at Trinity Church yesterday morning from the text, "Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth." He said in part: "These words are a portion of a prayer of Jesus Christ on behalf of his disciples, a prayer magnificent in the thought ex pressed, because it issued from the heart of the perfect man, and he knew the need of humanity the humanity he came to serve. It was a prayer for the unity of God's children, for the welding together of the whole family of God humanity gravitating by truth revealed and re ceived toward the divine center God had set for man. "The mode of the attainment of this purpose divine is the propagation and ex tension of truth, which men are ever seeking and which they approach with longing and bleeding hearts. The prob lem of philosophy has been through the ages. What is truth? It is not easy to answer, and yet truth Itself is -simple. Truth has to do with the mode of being the mode of the being of God as extend ing to all his creatures. ThlB is the definition of Christ 'Thy word is truth.' The realm of 'reality which seems to baffle further analysis belongs to the realm of the fundamental. "No wonder that Jesus of Nazareth, having this conception of truth and knowing what it is, impressed upon his followers the necessity of going into every quarter of the earth to proclaim It. The burden of his prayer is that all his chil dren may be one through the regenerat ing, sanctifying power of truth as he knew it. "If we find we are small m stature as God's children, it is because we have not taken into our lives that which will give life to our spiritual being. Oh, the power of truth believed in and loved for itself! Oh, the influence of the man or woman who is able to come into the presence of Jesus in his own soul and feel the im press of his being! We do not know how or why the contact accomplishes its re sults; but it is so. "By coming to him we find a satisfac tion indefinable in human language. We Just live a quality of life God alone knows how. Jesus said: 'Come unto me all ye that travail and are heavy laden and I will give you rest' not the rest of indolence and idleness, but that which is given to the hero of God who is able to rise to higher things. "To really know that truth Is to study and follow the life of him who was the perfect exemplar of it. To desire that means that your life gravitates toward the life of God. You will find yourself tmnklng of the things of God. and grad ually your heart will lead you to search for God everywhere, and you wilt not search in vain, but in everything you will see the infinite as Jesus saw him." "SPIRITISM OF THE DEVIL." Elder Snyder Says Modern Belief Is 4 Ancient Evil. Elder G. A. Snyder takes Bible ground against spirit manifestations. His re marks at the Seventh Day Adventist Church last night were, in part, as fol lows : Modern spiritism is a revival of that against which ancient Israel was warned in the following- forcible language: "There eiiuii not De touna among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to rjass throuorh tha flrA rir a w-Ht-nH or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necsomance; for un mat no muse tnings are an abomina tion unto the Lord." (Deut. xviii:10-12.) The work of Christ and his apostles was opposed by similar manifestations. The case of Elymas. the sorcerer, is a fair sample. Hear how Paul addresses him: "O full of ail subtlety and all mis chief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not ceasa to pervert tne ngnt ways of the Lord?" The seer of Patmos, in predicting lat ter-day spirit manifestations, says: "They o'o me npiniH oi oevus worKing miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world to gather them to the battle of the great day of God Almighty." We should not be sur prised to see spiritism rampant as it nears the close of its career, for says the prophet. "The devil , is come down unto you naving great wratn Decause he know eth that he hath but a short time." The Bible attributes all pretended com munication with the dead to the devil; and pretended communication with the dead is the chief cornerstone. of modern spiritism. If the devil can only make people believe that they are talking with some of their dead friends when in reality- thev are talking with a real live devil, he has' them so well hypnotized that they will believe anything he says.

HOOD'S EXACT HEIGHT, Work Now Progressing In Eastern Multnomah and Clackamas Countiea. GRESHAM, Or., Oct. 7. BpeciaI.) United States engineers are at work throughout eastern Multnomah and Clack amas Counties making a geographical survey of the country. They are now beyond Pleasant Home, headed for Mount Hood, marking elevations every half mile along the county roads and making permanent notations. The entire distance between the Wil lamette River and the base of Mount Hood, where their surveys will cease, will be covered in this manner. Once having determined the altitude of Mount Hood's base, it will be a very easy matter to get the exact height of that , mountain, which will be very satisfactory to all concerned over a much disputed ques tion. The altitude of the country passed over is not so great as many have be lieved, the survey showing that the store at Powell "Valley is Just 459 feet above sea level. There will not be muoh. varia tion from these figures until the ascent of the Cascade Mountains is reached, beyond the Sandy River. F00TSTEPS0F PRESIDENT Portland Party Leaves for a Big . Game Hunt. The bear tribe of the State of Wash ington promises to suffer heavily during the next few days, for a party of local huntsmen left last evening for a ten days' excursion into the wilds of Clark and Skamania Counties, where they hope to bag several specimens of the bear species. WH. Grindstaff. J. W. Blain and Har- ley B. Wilson, all of Portland, organized themselves into a committee of three to visit the wilds of the Lower Washington country and skirmish for the meat of bruin during the period they have al lotted themselves for a Fail vacation. The trio goes to tha scene of the next ten days' sport with plenty of ammuni tion, so tnat in case they are not suc cessful in landing their quarry in one snot they will nave plenty in reserve. Strange to relate, the huntsmen left town without making the usual promises of providing their friends with a supply of meat ror the Winter. They will be home again in about two weeks.
