SHOULD WORK TOGETHER Me Explains Away Frequent Kxriises Given for Many Kemainlng Outside of Various Relig ious Organizations. "Ought a RpliKious Man to Join a Church?" wan the title of Dr. Laither R. Ijyott's srmon last nlRlit, at the First Congregational Church. In which he an alyzed the various reasons why so many religious people decline to Identify them selves with religious organizations. The speaker admitted that there may be some ground for the claim made by certain classes of men that the church places too much emphasis upon traditions, dogmas and creeds. But he declared that a more thorough Investigation would doubtless convince them that they are held back by an excuse rather than a reason. In concluding his address. Dr. Dyott said the world needs t!ie church and the church In turn needs the religious man outside and. therefore, that Individual nhould contribute to its activities. Said Dr. Dyott: Oulht a religious man to Join a church? In asking the question it Is assumed that there are reunions men who do not helons; to any church. They I.ave cither withdrawn from the church, or they have never Joired a church. No reasonable person can th'nk of the church and religion aa being alto gether synonymi.ua. There may be a want of parity between ecclesiastical organiza tion and practical religion. It la ouite pos sible that pome churchmen may put rhurrh lanltv ahead of Christianity. Churches may. sometimes, become selfish. Tticy have been kuewn to have bigots and hypocrites among their adherents. They have, at times, per secuted those with whom they did not agree. Now and again they have been kt-own to oppose those things which have contribu ted to the welfare of human society and the progress of the human race. Itut let It be remembered that In spite of all these things, the time has never been, nor !s it now. that human society can think of dispensing with the church. To some It may seem unnecessary: to others it may seem an ex pensive luxury, and to others a burdensome Increment, but there always have been, there are now. and there always will he many who believe that the church. Its life and work, are to ba reckoned among the necessities of human society. But. still we are bound to admit that there Is a vast amount of practical religion outside of the church. Moreover, there are some persons who believe that vital and practical religion Is growing mere rapidly than the church. There are many good and j thoughtful persona who. while not alto gether antagonistic to the church Idea, are still unwilling to Join" any church. Soma of these contribute financially to the sup port of a church, and they attend church, but they are not Inclined to Join any church. There are many othera who are not at all In sympathy with any church, and they never attend any church, but tiiey do A great deal of good in many ways. Tra ditionally and dogmatically they are not religious, but practically they are religious. All men are religious In some respects. Some men are religious In all respects. Some t these religloua men outside of the church do not Join church because they feel tnst the church caters too much to rich people. The poor man Is Just as fond of good ser mons and beautiful music as the rich man. Hut when he enters our large churches h finds that the best pe are rentfd by the rich people. He finds that. In order to do his part In the financial support of the church, he will have to pay more than ha can afford. At least, this Is what he thinks. But his grievance Is mors in his Imagina tion than In reality. If he doubts this as sertion, let him give the good the benefit of the doubt, and make a fair test. Just give the church a chance. There are others who fancy that the church Is placing too much emphasis upon traditions, dogmas and creeds. They are thoughtful and educated men. and they cannot believe the things taught by some of the churches. Here and there mny be found some ground for their complaint. But a more thorough investigation will doubtless convince them that they are held back by an exruse rather than a rea son. Many other excuses are submitted by those who do not wish to Join church. It Is not. however, for the church to censure the religions outsider. We ought to make our churches more necessary to the masses. We ought to find the point of contact In the masses. We ought to help the people outside more than we do. We ought to help the people Just where they are. An extensive work depends upon an intensive life. Then, when the church Is trying to do her part the religious man outslil 5 ought to Join the church because, in spite of Its faults. It is still the best Institution In the world, and has within it all of the agencies for the great uplift of the human race. He cug.it to Join the church because It will place his life with an organised oppor tunity of life, or growth, of service. The world needs the church. The religious man outside Is needed by the church as certainly as the world needs the church. Ought a religious man to join a church? Yes. VltAISK FOK SIXDAY SCHOOLS Only Place Child Itccelves RellRlous I ust r net ion, Says I'H-tor. In hla address in the fnlversalist Church of Oood Tidings. Bast Couch nnd Kast Kighth streets, yesterday morning. Rev. James D. Corby, the pastor, exemplified the Importance of childhood and the necessity of develop ing the child along broad spiritual lines. After the singing of carols and recita tions by the children. Rev. Mr. Corby called attention to the work that Is being done in the Sunday schools and said: The puhlle schools claim your tflilld and mine for five days in the week, but the schools do not teach anything along religious and spiritual lines: they are forbidden to do that. The athletic training develops the bodv. but not the mind and heart, where else can the child get his religious Instruc tions but In the Sunday schools? The Legislature which will meet next month cannot legislate religious and snliitual truths, nor will the new charter bring to this city new moral regime. All this must be done through the child. He must be fortified by religious and moral training in the Sunday schools against the temptations that beset him. Pence, the work the Sunday school has undertaken is wtrth your best efforts. PLAN ATTRACTS ATTENTION Grange Methods Are Copied by Other States. ' The educational programme developed hy State Lecturer J. J. Johnson, of the I'atrona of Husbandry of Oregon, assisted by leading educators of the atate, is at tracting wide attention. On Saturday 1r. Johnson'recelvcd an application from Pennsylvania for a complete outline, eo it can he used In that state. This was sent with full Instructions. The method Is proving remarkably successful through out the entire elate, and those who have considered the value of the educational programme declare that its adoption marks a great advance In the history of the Grange, and one that will do more to make the order a great power for good than any measure it has adopted since It was organized. In Oregon the state lecturer constantly receives letters from local Granges com mending the plan. The only obstacle en countered, and it Is a slight one, te the cost of postage on literature sent out from the state library. For some of the smaller Granges this is a burden, but not a heavy one. Uterature is sent out from the state library, and on this material the Granges pay the' postage, as there la no fund for that purpose at present. In Multnomah County the supply of litera ture conies from the Portland Library'. State Lecturer Johnson is well satis fled with the way the new educational plan is working, and says that It Is bring ing the people of the. farming districts Into close relations with the state library. He reports that one Granse has been or ganized In a remote section of the state, after the people had read Miss Lilian Tin gle's domestic science outlines in The Orcgonlan, as they desired to get the heneft of that branch study through the Grange. At the May session of the State Grange In McMlnnville. the new method will probably receive substantial assistance. The plan places on the shoulders of the state lecturer a great amount of work In the way of correspondence. It is gen erally believed that the method will ulti mately be extended to other states, and become a permanent educational feature of the Tatrone of Husbandry. CIST'S LIFE HIS TOPIC DR. YOt'XG TELLS OF IXKLV KXCE' OX CIVILIZATION'. Pastor of Taylor-Street Methodist Church Speaks at First Presby terian in Pastors Absence. In the absence of Dr. "William Hiram Fou!k-s, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church, the pulpit was yesterday oc cupied by Dr. Benjamin Younff. pastor of Taylor-Strert Methodist Church, who spoke on "Tho Man Christ Jesus." Dr. Younjf referred to the sublime qualities In his character, the simplicity of his pre cepts, and the tremendous influence he has bad upon philosophy, poetry and every other department of human thought. Said Dr. Young: Jus ChrUt is the marvel of the wc Thai he lived, wrought and taueht. we a il believe. That stranjre power was delivered lino his hands the rmn of his day af.'lrmcd. Roman historians testify to his existence. Certain hist It ut ions of our civilization bear wltm-s to his teach insr. The Pauline cor renpondenoe means that Jesus Christ lived and went about dolntc Kood and finally die-I for men. The frospel portrait Is based upon the real personal Christ. There must be back of the photogrraph, tb real Individual. This photograph which Is Riven us in the gospels Is sur-h that it necessitates the his toric Hi: ure back of it. Rosseau and John Stuart Mill were baffled by the artlessn?ss and the simplicity of the story. If this Is an Invention, or fiction, the Inventor had been greater than the hero. Men have marveled at the purity of the Christ character. He was a sinless re deemer. He was tempted but did not sin. He is called the Lamlt of Uod. This con ception was not e vol veil from tho Inner consciousness of the dtsclples. They did not Hnd It in contemporary life or litera ture. If you have read classic authors you know that It could not be discovered in their pages. Flack of the white purity of this delineation there is, as Sidney Lanier, our Southern poet, says, "the crystal Christ." Hut some oru snvs, tli life of that old day was responsible for him. As the Elizabethan period is responsible for Shake speare and Ha con, so that epoch made him. It is not difficult to account for men who gather up Into themselves from the age about them. We can even account for genius If we keep in mind certain laws which dominate In history. We cannot thus explain the Master. He sprang out of the heart of a dying nation and from the re mote province of an empire the most cor rupt and ruthless the world has perhaps ever seen. Since that day the world has mad? wonderful progress. If ages make men, and Jesus Christ is the product of that age. how comes it that there is but one i'hrist In history?- I mean one figure who really lays his hand upon the heart of the world. J.sus Christ is a type for men. He was a Jew. but the blood of the Gentiles flowed In his veins. .He was an oriental Christ, yet from him has come the stately edifice of Christian civilization. Ha was a Galilean but he belonged to no tribe. He Is a man to be loved and to be followed by mn everywhere. Thene is compass In his view and breadth In his vision and power In his hand : no wonder men asked, "What manner of man Is this?" . Mark this man at work. He did not live long. He taught for about three years and then his teaching becomes incorporated into the world's ethical life. If we take his name from art we destroy th? work of the great artists. If we blot him otit of philosophy, we rob It of that which Is vital. What would Tennyson or Browning be without the Christ influence? The tre mendous tragedy of Macbeth vibrates with the truth enunciated by this Galilean. He preached a clear and simple doc trine of God. There are foregk-ams of this doctrine In the earlier writings among this people. The I'salms at times approach the Fatherhood, but this groat truth of God was never so set before men. Jesus Christ Is startling In his revelation of God. M-n sometimes give us a definition of God much In the way Herbert Spencer has given us a definition of evolution. Definitions do not always define. Let a man get a grip upon the doctrine of God as given to the world by Christ and he will obtain much satis faction for thought. He brought God down to men made him palpable. He spoke in the vernacular of the common heart so that men could understand him. He brought the divine within reach. He has made it pos sible for us to understand somowhat of the Father and has helped men believe that the divine was interested in the upward pro gneHs of the race. But In the race move ment he has taught men to remember that no man Is forgotten. Every man is a re flection of God and he would win and save men for the best. His doctrine of man was no less epoch making. "hat hope has been thrust into the world because of It. Jt is this which has lifted men up. As men come to be lieve it and to receive it they shall come to find their true worth. Behind all of this toil and sacrifice for men fs love. The wonderful jniracle the ni.thig place of the Immanent and the transcendent God spells love. This song above thi Bethlehem hills means love for men. This glow In the khan; this cry from the manger means God interested In men. This life so full of labor for the betterment of men; this anguish In the garden; the cross borne wit hout the gate of the city; the uplifted tree nnd the spent strength going out in the broken-hearted cry means God reaching out after men. Calvary means love. Jesus Christ is the re vela t ion of a Father loving and longing for men. No wonder men marvel at the Christ. Think of what he has put into our civiliza tion. Think of his influence over modern life. He is the central figure of history. None has transcended him. He is the con summate flower of the race. As Victor Hugo has said. "He has turned the blind a I lev Into a thoroughfare." He live the 'mightiest among the holy and the holiest among the mighty." The pinnacles of fame which stand on the plain of history are ever and anon shadow and light but the fame of the Shrtst shines with unremitting splendor, his name glorious by his ministry of service nnd of love. Let us make It our business to interpret his spirit to men, to live to uplift and to save and to disseminate his message of goodwill and joy to all man kind. THIEF USES STOLEN GUN Holds Cp Jewelry Store Willi Pro prietor's Own Weapon. BEL.UXGHAM, Wash., Dee. 27.-Fred T.

ORIGIN AT LOWLY MANGER Wise Men of East and Humble Shepherds Knelt Together to Pay Homage to Xew Born Christ Child. In the course of his Christmas ser mon last night In Grace Methodist Church, r. William H. Heppe declared that the true Christmas spirit is that of brotherhood; that around the man ger where the Christ-child lay stood the wise scholars of the time side by side with the humble shepherds of the surrounding hills. On that night, said the speaker, heaven forever placed the stamp of Its disapproval upon class spirit. Dr. Hoppe's sermon was in part as follows:. Kach recurring Christmas throws new llarht and new meaning- upon the angel's message That made glad the hearts of watchlnn shepherds and melodious the night upon Judea's hills. That message has lost none of lis freshness, and Its greatness la still unmeasured. The truths of Christ's kingdom are not plants that bloom and fade In a day. but grow and (lower with each passing century. Had the Christmas message been fully understood by the first visitors to that Bethlehem manger, or even by the Chris tians of the first century. Its contents would not be freighted with glory. Inspiration and doxology music for each new-born aee. Lit tle did those shepherds and wise men un derstand what that holy child meant to the world. They could not comprehend the vastnfss and richness of the music: "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men." We can more clearly read and understand that supernatural occurrence, because of the greater Illumination ahed upon It by the intervening centuries, because of the 1BO0 years of Influence and power that have streamed forth upon the world from that hallowed cradle. Coming generations will understand its meaning, and see Its grand eur upon a far more magnificent scale than even our eyes are privileged to behold. This fact is simply In harmony with the law that all divine truth Is progressive. There la a "fullness of time" In relation to all the great truths and events of God's economy. God records a promise of de liverance for the human race In the gray dawn of history, and takes centuries to bring about Its fulfillment. He causes a marvelous event to take place and ages later men understand Its full significance. All prophecies when first uttered were only dimly comprehended, but gathered light with each passing century. Hence many events are but little understood until ex perience and history unveil their meaning. t'hriBt came to his own. but his own re ceived him not. Why? Because) there was doubt as to his purity, power, wisdom and love? No. They failed to understand the true purpose of his coming. This was due to a wrong Interpretation of the prophecies. Consequently It took .10 years of providen tial unfolding, and a three years' ministry of service, sacrifice, suffering and cruel death, to send even faint gleams of light Into the disciples' minds concerning the true object of his mission. And It was not until the full light of the resurrection morn hurst upon them that they rightly understood the miracle of Bethlehem. The empty tomb was necessary to Interpret the hallowed manger. The Frlnce of life could alone re veal the meaning of the holy child. In view of these facts, the angel's mes sage should mean more, infinitely more, to the million of christians today than it could possibly have meant to the humble listeners of that far-dlatant night. The seed which then gave so little promise of a glorious harvest has since come to a rich fruitage. Its steady growth. Its continual onward and upward movement, lifting as it does the very mountain ranges of society, gives promise of the ushering In of that great, divine even!, when all things shall be gathered together In Christ. KOBIXSOX LEAVES PASTOKATE Out of Harmony With Church Methods, He Resigns. Rev. F. Elmo Robinson, who had long been pastor of the Rodney-Avenue Chris tian Church.

Discharges 2500 Tons of Freight t San Francisco and Brings 325 Tons Here. The steamship Numantia. of the Portland & Asiatic Steamship Com pany, arrived up at 10 o'clock yester day morning from Oriental ports via San Francisco. The Numantia crossed the Pacific with close to 3000 tons of cargo. With the exception of 325 tons, however, the freight was dis charged at San Francisco. Japanese freight Is taxing the capacity of the Pacific Mall boats and the Numantia was called on to take part of the Kobe cargo of the Korea. The Numantia arrived off the mouth of the river Thursday night but not a pilot was In sight. Christmas morn ing it began to blow up a hurricane and Captain Feldtman was obl!;d to stand off shore. He was unable to secure a pilot until Saturday morning. The action of the pilots In coining in side for Christmas is aeverel criti cised by the master of the Numantia. Had a pilot been available Th:ira-Jay evening, the officers of the Numantia would have been able to spend CuriEt mas night at Portland Instead of bat tling with a storm. The Numantia brought 325 tons for Portland and a few padt.n-s of over land cargo. Of the Portlind stuff there was 6551 packages consisting principally of sulphur, t-;a, rice and merchandise.
