ORIS LESSONS F Dr. Harold Pattison Reviews Bible Story of the Prodi gal Son. TELLS OF HIS WEAKNESSES Minister From Hartford, Conn., Who Supplies White Temple Pul pit, Preaches First of Series of Sermons on Above Topic. Rev. Harold Tattlson. pastor of the First Baptist Church of Hartford. Conn., was the speaker at the White Temple yesterday. He will also speak next Sun day and tne week following. Mr. Patti on is making a tour of the coast, having come to Portlnnd from Vancouver. B. C and Seattle. He will go from here to San Francisco and Los Angeles, speaking the last Sunday In August from the pulpit of the Auditorium Temple, of which Bob Burdette is the pastor. Mr. Pattison Is profuse in his praise of the West. He says it is "the young man's country." Having Just come from Vancouver. B. C, he was in a posi tion to compare Portland with the coast cities' to the north. He said the only thing he found in Vancouver that was reasonable was the steamship fare to Prattle, the result of the rate war. He said he found some idle men and prices much higher than those of the Bast. He had found conditions i.i Portland better than in any other Pacific Coast city, he aid. . Today Mr. Pattison is to take a trip to The Dalles with Professor William Phelps, of Yale. The latter came in yes terday from Berkeley, where he has been lecturing before the students of the Vnl versliy of California. From here, P"of. Phelps will go to Tacoma and Seattle. The subject of the sermon at the White Temple yesterday morning was "The Three Tests." Mr. Pattison spoke last night on 'The Far Country." This was the first of three sermons on the parable of the Prodigal Son. Mr. Pattison said In part: I Like Pilgrim's Progress. The story of the prodigal's progress re minds us of that story, dear to our child hood. "Pilgrims Progress." But there Is this Important difference. While the "Pil grim's Progress" describes a journey from the city of destruction, the prodigal's prog ress describes a lourney to that city. In the opening verses of this parable we see the prodltal's great desire to get hold of his father's possessions. "Give me tbe por tion of goods that falleth to me." We are prepared to like this young fellow. He may have been a trifle gay. buthe was good-hearted. That is our first impression. But look at him a little closer, and ou will see that his spirit is one that chafes at all restraint. He must have what he wants and he must have it now. What is this spirit that makes men restless: urges them to take the powers which God has given them snd use them according to their own will? What Is this longing to get away from a man's mother's apron strings, and. bursting all bonds. do whatever he pleases? It is the spirit of nin. The nest definition of sin I have ever seen Is this: Sin is the placing of self-will or self consciousness above the claims of love and duty." Whence came this spirit? Two places In the Scripture tell us. The book of Genesis says it came from the strpeni's whisper, and Thrlst savs It rams from the "Far Country " Both of these will be found te be tbe same. Heart Longs to Wander. The son not only desired to get his father's possessions, but he wished to get away from his presence. Ah. but we must remember that he was in a far country long before he ever crossed the threshold of his father's house. His heart had gone wandering long before his heels. It is not spare that makes distance. A husband and wife may sit next to one another, and yet he far apart. This young man was sick of home, which is much different from being homesick. The spirit of sin sent the prodi gal away from home, and a more powerful spirit, tbe spirit of love, will bring him back. Let us hasten to catch up with the young man. We find that he bas wasted his sub stance. There is a pleasure In sinning, but It all comes at the beginning Some of us preachers have made a mistake In talking about the results of sin. as though they were all misery. There is a pleasure In sn. or else the threshhoMs of the ?aloon. gambling-bouse, and brothel would not be so well-worn. As the prodigal sat among his gay com panions, he must have felt at first as if his dreams had come true. He had seen life. Tea. this .was living but It was "riotous living." and he had not counted the cost. Earth hath her price for what earth gjves us. A beggar is taxed for a comer to die in. The priest hath his If he comes end shrives us. We bargain for the graves we lie In. At the Devil's mart are all things sold. For a can and hells our lives we nay. Baubles we earn with our whole soul's tasking. It Is only God that Is given away; It is only Heaven may be had for the asking." Sin a Sad Waste. The worst about sin Is not only that it is experslve. but that It is a wsste. Truly does Renjsmln Franklin say. "What would maintain one vice would support two chil dren." How many a man has known the waste of sin. a missed opportunity, a broken home, a broken-hearted wiie or mother. Every man who sins, sooner or later real ises that there is nothing In it. And now Bote the Inevitable coincidence. "There aro.e a mighty famine." In his dreams about the Far Country he did not reckon with the famine. The Devil forgot to mention it. For the first time in his life he beaa to be in want, and was driven to a degrading employment. So he went and fastened him self like a leech upon a citizen of that country. Let no one think that the ocupation of herding swine is In itself degrading, but it was degrading for this young Jew. because H was beneath what it was his privilege to do. Any man who Is doing less thnn God meant him to do Is thereby degraded. Where were the prodigal's friends? He never had any In that land. Thos-.? com rades of his were nevor friends. 1 hey were busy with other prodigals as green as him self, who were willing to pay the price. Does some one. smarting under bitter ex periences, say. "This Is a hard old worl.t?" Hard only to the man who takes the far country road. Hard only to the man who wishes to use God's gifts to hlra as though they were his cwn. Hard only to the man wbo would live his life and spend his sub stance out of sight of God CON'CERT BY LARGE CHORUS Fine Musical Programme at Taylor Street Metltodlst Church. A sacred concert was rendered at the Taylor-street Methodist Episcopal Church last night by the 40 voices constituting the choir. Instead of choosing a sacred cantata, however. E. 8. Miller, the direc tor, decided upon a varied programme. This Included the "Hallelujah Chorus" from Handel's "Messiah," "The Chapel" (Kreutrer). rendered by a male chorus of 30. and a selection by the Rose City Male Quartet. The chorus of K) also sang "The Shepherd'a Sunday Song." Kreut er. which was well received. Professor J. Hutchison rendered as an organ pre lude "Adagio." by Bizet. He also ren dered the follow'lng: "Poeme" (Sgam bati), "Prelude" (Bathmaulnaff), "Bar ROM PARABLE carolle" (Faulkes) and "Allegro Vivace' (Widor). At the morning service yesterday Dr. D. L- Rader preached on the "Coming of Christ." taking for his text Acts 1: S, 7. "When they therefore were come to gether, they asked of him. saying, 'Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel 7 And he said unto them, 'It is not for you to know the times or the seasons which the Father hath put In his own power." " Dr. Rader said that some people think the advent of Christ would bring about a perfect government, but that while" he was willing to admit the desirability of such government, he believed there must be perfect citizenship first. Bellamy's theory in this respect Is right, said he. If a perfect people exists. SOLDIERS TO MAKE CAMP (Continued From First Page.) are detailed from the ranks for that work. .

TALKS OF . EARTHLY HELL Congregational Pastor Deplores Kid Glove and Parlor-Car Religion, and Asks for Active Efforts In Relieving Misery. "Are Soiils In Hell Altogether Bad?" was the subject of the sermon preached by Dr. Luther R. Dyott last night at the First Congregational Church. He took for his text Luke xvi:27:28: "And he said. I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house; for I have five brethren, that he may testify unto them, lest they also come Into this place of torment." The text Is a record of the request made by the rich man to Lazarus, when the former awoke and found himself in hades. Dr. Dyott said in part: Our text Is taken from a parable spoken by Jesus Christ. It Is the familiar parable - f , f: "'..v. Colonel George O. Toran, Fourth Iu- fantry. Eugene. of "a -certain rich man" and a "certain beggar Dives and Lazarus. Christ vividly portrays the conditions, and contrasts the Jove of these men before ana aciec- ueain. In this world. Laxarus was a aood man suf fering. In the other, he was happy. In this world, the rich man had as much pleasure as -his riches could purchase; but, it seems that he was very seinsh. In the otner world, he passed into poignant suffering. Nevertheless, he had enough . goodness in him to think of -those who were dear to him on earth, and he prayed to Abraham, upon whose bosom Lazarus was resting, and besought him to send Lazarus to warn those who were brothers of the rich man "lest they also come into this place of tor ment." Abraham did not comply with the request, but he did remind the rich man that ample oi-ovleion had been made for the warning which his brothers needed. Now, we ail know that a parable is only a brief narrative, or descriptive allegory. It is a comparison. We are not to press the figures too far. Neither should we attempt to prove anything more by It than that which the one had in mind who spoke It. But", at t"he same time, we should remember that Jesus certainly did mean something. Some theologians have made a most con ventional interpretation which is quite fa miliar to all students of the Bible. Let us DIRECTOR ElHiENE MILITARY HiENl AND. yxr ... i 4 1. 1V Dr. L. C. Read. EUGENE. Or.. August 2. (Spe cial.) Dr. L. C. Read, director of the Euzma Military Band, is a mu sician of unurual ability and expe rience and the people of Eugene, as well as the members of the Military Band are appreciative of the work which the director Is doing for the city. Dr. Read began his musical career as a cornet player in his native state, Vermont, at 16 year of ago. He was chosen bandmaster of the Clare mcnt. New Hampshire, band at ID. after which he spent a number of years on the road with different companies. Later .ho directed the band at Leominster. Mass., and played with different Boston bands, especially Brown's and the Metro politan. In 1SSO he came "to the Pacific Coast, and In 18S8 was chesen di rector of the First Regiment Band, of Portland, for two years. In 183 and 1804 he was In the Washington State College at Pullman, going from there to become bandmaster of the Colfnx band, and last year Eugene secured him to direct the military band here.N Dr. Read has composed a number of pieces for bands and solos for different instruments, which some times he uses In the programmes given here each Friday evening dur ing the Summer or at the Winter concerts. He has written two operas, "The Merry Students" and "The Alchemist.", At this season of the year the splendid concerts given by the band every Friday night are enjoyed by hundreds of people. They are known as the promenade band concerts, and the programmes given are al ways of a high class. 1 ' I " '"'.,'A'i J PORTLAND BUSINESS DIRECTORY WHOLESALE AGRICULTURAL EttPLEltENTS. A. H.

Our modern scholarship brings to light the fact that the word hell Is derived from the Saxon 'helam." which means to cover. It signifies, principally, an invisible place. In the original Hebrew and Greek of cur Bible, there are three words: Sheol. Hades and Gehenna, from which the translators took the word helL and other words. In the Old Testament the world Sheol is used 65 times. In the authorized version It is translated "grave" 81 times, and 31 times It is translated "hell." and three times it is translated "pit." In the New Testament It is used 23 times. In the original. 12 times we find the word "Gehenna" and the word hades is used 11 times. It mesne the place of disembodied spirits. In this last sense Jesus used It in our text. But we do no violenoe to our text when we siy: Hades, or Hell. Is not merely a place, in some other world. It Is a state, or condition of life found both here on earth, and because of the continuity of life. In that other world, also. Thousands of souls are in neu on eartn. It has been made for them by themselves and their fellow mortals. Sin. conscience, remorse and environment make a hell here and now. Some persons are good. Innocent and virtuous. Others are bad and vicious. But no man who knows life as It really Is, even, among the sinful, can quite believe in total depravity. There Is some good In the worst of mortsls. There is some evil in the best of human beings on earth. "In men whom men condemn as ill, I find so much of goodness still: In men whom men pronounce divine. I find so much of sin and blot. I hesitate to draw a line Between the two where God has not." It Is of this hell on earth that I speak. Men, women and children who are in hell here and now. Some of them here in Port land. What are cur churches doing for them? Some of them have been "more sinned against than sinning." All have some good In them. From their torment they are longing, no doubt, for something better than their wretched lives. Instead of finding them that we may expose and pun ish them. Instead of saying what they should suffer by law, let us fend them and improve their surroundings; let us find them and do what we can that they may be saved. , Our churches have no right to lebve the so-called rescue work to missions and the Salvation Army. Our religion should never be of the kid-gloved and parlor-car variety. Our so-called fashionable congregations should do more work among the people who need them here and now. To give money for missions at home and abroad is not enough. It Is personal work, and the personal touch which must count more and moro In reaching and saving and Improving the en vironment of souls who are in hell on earth, but hav enough goodness left beneath all sin to turn their hell Into a heaven when they have the chance they deserve. Lazarus, it seems, could not go, but we can. We sh-mld do It and do it now. Let our religion find its greater motive poweV In the love of God and humanity. On the Trail.

BAKER GIVES REASON'S FOR DISTRUST. He Says Age Is Given to Reconstruc tion Because Men Have Out lived Creedal Systems. Speaking at the Unitarian Church yes terday morning on the "Reconstruction of Belief," Rev. Neiiemiah A. Baker, as sistant pastor, said that there must be something wrong with the creed when men are largely to be found outside the churches. Men, he said, are not macie better or worse by the creeds. "Prove all things, hold fast that which is good.' was the text, found In I Thess. v:21. He said in part: ' ' The passion for reconstruction has selsea our age. Men have gone mad In their revo lutionary ardor. In the extremity of our hope in this struggle for something endun Ing. we had supposed that at least one insti tution of society would be found to have re mained Intact. As the sustalner of our faith and the guardian of our belief, we had hoped that above all, the church might stand as a rock against which this tempest might break in vain. The fact of the reconstructive process is self-evident. We have not to go back Into any dimly historic past In order to find the great reaction which has characterized this age: it began in the church less than -400 -years ago. The church then had become secular ised, paganized, and had opposed Uself to the rational and Justifiable Interests of the world and It was but natural that men of true spirit should protest vehemently against such a restricted policy. Mistakes have been made In creeds. They were not made above the possibility of change. The great misfortune Is that the change has not kept pace with human needs. Still a far greater mistake Is made when any man blessed with the clear vision and favored by every external circumstance Is yet willing to mislead others, if not himself, bv a false method of apolog-, In which he makes his new ideas fit a background for whlr-h they were never meant. When it becomes as evident as it has become today that men are not pinning themselves to the old creeds, It means either one of two things something must be the matter with the men, or else there Is some thing the matter with the creeds. We can not believe that men are better or worse by profession. It seems that deed is a better test than creed. The difficulty must be In the creed. When it happens, ss It ts happening, that a life belief, previously dormant, ceases to be accepted, then It becomes inevitable that men should do what they can to re-express themselves, either in a new revelation of truth or new -words for the old. The great souls of men are crying out for a religious belief that will speak to them In meaningful terms of life. Why, then, are we- shy of expressing our belief? If It means anything to us it ought to mean something to someone else. If you have struggled under the old creedal au thority and have found another way, even though It be called heresy, bless the name that thus marks you free rather than sur render one honest conviction. We can't walk one way and look another if we are to step with confidence. As men. we are building and rebuilding with old world materials, and In tbe light of our freedom new structures are being evolved WHOLESALE IJTHOC, RAPHE KS SCHMIDT Lithograph Co.. Weils-Fargo bldg.

Little by little mutual understanding is fusing us together In closer bonds of brotherhood. There Is no need for formal creed where each man's faithfulness to his own beBt guiding principle Is active. The days of great creedal systems are without doubt past, because no Intelligent man now aims to produce a final system of belief. But In standing in good faith for our own convic tion we are to gain a higher courage and crown our little day with Its portion of progress. Northwest People in New York. NEW YORK, Aug. 2. (Special.) The following from the Pacific North west registered at New York hotels today: From Portland Mrs. M. Brandes, T. J. Brandes, Mrs. A. Knaak, C. Talbot, at the Horald Square; R. Abramson, at the Belvedere From Seattle J. V. Wills, at the Cure To Stay Cured $10 U MY FEE in Any Uncompli cated Disorders No other physician employs a like method and so thorough is my work that there need not be the slightest fear of a relapse into the old condition. It is not a question of whether you can be cured, but whether you will be cured. Don't wait until it Is too late. My method is perfect and quick. The cure Is ab solutely certain. I use NO KNIFE, cause no pain and you need not be detained from your work for one day. I especially solicit those cases where money has been wasted on elec tric belts and other appliances. The Scientific Treatment of Weakness Dosing the system with powerful stimulants and tonics In an effort to restore functional vigor can have but one final result: The condition is rendered worse than before. "Weakness'' is merely an Indication of a low form of Inflammation in the prostate gland, and this Inflammation is but aggravated bv stimulating remedies that excite temporary activity. I employ the only scientific and fully effective treatment for "weakness." which effects a permanent cure by restoring ihe prostate gland to a sound and healthy. state. I obtain complete results in every case I treat. Those in any trouble, surrering irom SPERMATORRHOEA. LOSSES AND DRAINS, VARICOCELE, HYDROCELE. BLOOD POI SON or any other disease tending to destroy and disfigure a-nd to render happiness Impos sible are urged to call upon me without delay. CONSULTATION AND ADVICE FREE HOURS A. M. TO 0 P. M.
