    ALL OWE CHURCH
THEIR SUPPORT
Dr. Dyott Finds No Reason for
Religious Men Staying
Outside.
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 They I.ave cither withdrawn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

ILL MEN BROTHERS
Dr. Heppe Finds This Is Real
Christmas Spirit.
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.
