"The problem of character is ulti mately one of self-control." he said, "That which distinguishes a sane man from an insane man or an animal, is self-control. It Is the root of all the virtues and the center of character. "But the center of self-control is will, and the center of will is attention. "The man who would safely combat temptation must move in conformity with the physical and mental laws of his constitution. In the realm of the physical, the condition of attention, which is the condition of control, de pends on surplus nervous energy. Noth ing is so fatiguing as attention. The man who would light the adequate moral right must take care of his physl cat reserves. The primary requisite is to be a first-class animal. In the realm of the mind, remem ber that you can think of only one thing with concentrated attention at once. In this connection face yaur sin and call it by its right name. Let the student call ponying living, a lie,- and the drunkard call his drinking drunk enness, and he will find that in the ef fort by which he -keeps the right name unwaveringly in his mind, a saving moral force. OLD PRAYER IS OPPOSED Appeal Taught Children Declared to Be Bad Xor Them. The childhood prayer, "Now I lay me down to sleep," ought never to be taught to a child, because it is not conducive to the health or well-being of the child, was the assertion of the Rev. P. J. Green in an address at the New Thought Temple last night on How to Pray to Get Results." The psychology of this prayer he de clared to be bad, since it carries a sug gestion of death-to the subconscious mind of the childf at a time when it is easily subject to suggestion. Supplicatory prayer he declared also to be the wrong procedure. bupplicatory prayer is based on tne assumption that God either does not know what is best for us, or else that he must be persuaded to do the right thing, said the Rev. Mr. Green. "This is the wrong procedure in prayer. On the contrary, we must as sume that God knows what is best and is always anxious to do what is the right thing for us, without persuasion or coaxing."

ECONOMIC SIDE PRESENTED Pacific University Student Prohibition Talk. Makes Declaring that saloons are an eco nomic evil, S. W. Grathweil, the "boy from the Cincinnati slums," now a stu dent at Pacific University, attacked the liquor traffic at the Taylor-street Methodist Church yesterday on what he asserted is the only level on which the saloon and anti-saloon interests can meet. The social and moral as pects of the question, he said, were of little value in political debate, because the liquor interests defend themselves only on economic principles. "Although It is a hard pill for most moralists to swallow," Mr. Grathweil said, "it Is a fact that an argument which appeals to a man's purse is much more persuasive than one addressed to his conscience. Prohibition would not iurt business. Every dollar spent in saloons takes that much away from legitimate business. Liquor is not a real source of revenue. The liquor in terests paid t300.000.000 in revenue last year, but about 2,000,000,000 was required to take care of the criminals, the Insane and degenerates whose idowfall can be traced to its use." Announcement was made that a number of reformed drunkards and Seneca. Fouts, an attorney, would tell their experiences in the prohibition meeting in the church on March 29.

Diamond Corby Points to Halo on Commonplace. ALL ARE INVITED TO SEE Tremendously Important Events As soclated With Small Matters Cited to Show Need of Prop er View of All Things. The tremendous Importance of trifles In the world was the theme of the ser mon preached yesterday at the Univer salis Church by the Rev. J. Diamond Corby, whose subject was "Seeing the Halo on khe Commonplace. Yester day was his first reappearance in his pulpit since his recent visit to Cali fornia. "The surprise of life comes in finding- out how we have missed the things that have lain nearest to us," he said. - "Moses found God's message and call while tending the flocks. Jacob at Bethel found the stone which pillowed his head a stepping place for angels. The men on the Emmaus road found the Christ in the dusty pilgrim by their side. "There are certain lines of effort that take the heart out of men; there is work performed by women which is such drudgery that it saps vitality and brings depression. God help those who toll without vision or hope, where hu man life is reduced to the machine level and then go to a home where there is little to lift the mind, even if one were not too dead tired to use that uplift For such we have a message of good tidings. Ws can help them see the halo on the commonplace. "If it was a brave, heroic thing to leave home and fight to strike the shackles from slaves it is equally needful to do battle for those who have no time to think nor pray, who are deaf to the divine music of the world. "This is the Church of the Good Tid ings. It opens the eyes of those who bear heavy burdens so that they see the halo on the commonplace. The old time artitsts painted the nimbus over the head of a few children and termed them saints. Today we observe thel halo over all childhood. We are living In mMst r, f t.rt-lhld roulittow 1 "Our universallst idea helps you to see clearer. It is eyes to the blind, strength to the weak, health to the sick. You who are housekeepers, who labor in store or office or mill, use thii church, its music, its prayer, its joyfu message . and your work won't be so hard and disagreeable. "A great occuilst once told me that few eyes were accurate and normal they needed lenses properly adjusted that removed the eye strain, the nerv ous discontent. What the expert does for the eye, that and more this dear faith and church does for the spiritual vision. ELKS' PLAY BEING MADE Vancouver Lodge Will Give Musical Comedy In April. VANCOUVER, Wash., .
