TWE MORXING OREGOXIAN. MONDAY JTTSE 29, 1914. 14 DIRECT REVELATION IS WOMAN'S CLAIM "They Come to Me Same as to Isaiah' or Jesus Christ," t Declares Mrs. Towne. "ALL 'MAY ENJOY POWER" Three Sessions Held by Xew Thought Convention Rev. A. C. Grler Preaches Morning Sermon, Kev. John Ring at Night. "Just as direct revelations have come to me as came to Isaiah or to Jesus Christ himself," said Mrs. Elizabeth Towne, editor of Nautilus, in her ad dress before the New Thought conven tion, in Christensen's Hall, yesterday afternoon. Mrs. Towne's statement created a visible Impression on the vast audience that crowded the halL Continuing she aid: , "You all get revelations. There isn t a human being that doesn't get them, but the trouble Is we so frequently turn our attention to the things and forget their source. "There is a spirit in man and an inspiration of the Al migrhty griveth him understanding. When I got to the point where I could know thoroughly that God is infinite wisdom and believe that the Spirit would lead me into all truth, I began to understand." Spiritual Experiences Told. Mrs. Towne's subject was "Revela tions That Have Made Me." She spoke interestingly, giving an outline of her life, telling of the evolution of her in tellectual and spiritual experiences and pointing out the lessons to be deducted. She said: "I do not tell you these things to take special credit to myself. What 1 am is due to expressing myself and living as well as I could up to the standard I aspired to. Tou can all be the 'Light of the World.' provided your light isn't hidden under a bushel of worries. I believe that success can be gained by living New Thought. Dissi pate the bushel of worries and frets. What I am New Thought has made me. I have grown through revelations from God. "Prayer Isn't a long talk with God. It isn't telling him all about your fam ily and everything else. It is a quiet, earnest moment, a devout attitude of spirit, a desire for wisdom and then comes revelation. "When I was a little girl attending the old Central School, where now the Hotel Portland stands, there was posted a motto on the wall, 'Whatsoever Thy Hand Findeth to Do, Do It With All Thy Might.' This made a great impres sion on my mind. I took it literally, and when I began to serve God, I served him furiously. I did this till it got on my nerves, and, after a semi breakdown, I had to readjust my meth ods of serving." Mrs. Towne spoke of overcoming pov erty by changing the mind and not thinking of being poverty-stricken. "One hundred dollars a month is enough for a family of six or seven, if you don't try to keep up with the neighbors. It will buy the necessities," Mrs. Towne said. Bright Answers Given. At the close of the address several questions were asked by men and women in the audience, and for each the speaker had a bright, logical an swer. When asked if she believed in future punishment Mrs. Towne created merriment by replying: "I'm not con cerned with future punishment. There s plenty of it in the present. There will be punishment as long as there is ig norance." Mrs. Florence Crawford gave a short talk on "Ye Are the Light of the World." Mrs. Edith Haines Kuester rang "Queen Anne's Lace," and George Hotchkiss Street rendered a baritone solo, "To a Violet," the words of which were written by Mrs. Crawford and the music by Mrs. Kuester. The morning session of the conven tion was devoted to a sermon by Kev. A. C. Urier, of Spokane, who took as his topic "The Lost Trail." It was an in spiring address, full of hopeful thoughts "and helpful suggestions. He said that Jesus had walked the trail that leads up and that man, too, could walk it, the trail marked with health and happi ness. ' Rev. John W. Ring, of San Diego, was the speaker at the closing session last night. "The Universality of New Thought" was his theme. Mrs. B. O. Carl sang "When Cecelia Sings," and Mrs. Elizabeth Bond sang "Sweet Mig nonette." Mrs. Kuester and Mrs. Mark Smith served as accompanists. CHARLES BACHMAN AND MADAUJtE " AVISTHROP MAKE HIT.

"Their Get-a-Way" is another title for "Kick In," which Mr. Mack and Marjorie Rambeau presented at the ; Orpheum last season. This . time Charles Bachman, a brilliant portrayal of crook characters, brings the play l.t to Portland with Madaline Win- throp as the crook's wife and partner in crime.

The policeman comes to their apartment and - tells them that the brother has confessed. He tells Terry and Kate that if they ' will give him the necklace he will let them all go. men ne turns inuwr. The dialogue is forceful and logical, the action is rapid and highly dramatic ' Grant Gardner comes next in the line ot winners. Grant is blacker than a doien aces of spades, but it's the sort that comes off in the dressing room. He dresses in a freakish "sojer" uniform of brilliant red coat with white skin-tight trousers and a " Napoleonic lid - atop his kinky dome.

True Christian Will Acknowledge Keepership and Seek Those Gone Astray, In Pastor's Assertion. Takins: for his text the lesson of Cain and Abel, Rev. Maxwell Hall, pas tor of the First Christian "jnurcn, ye-ti-rinv nreached upon - "Social Re sponsibility," or man's duty to his fel lowman. "Our individual responsibility." he said, in part, "is not bounded by the four walls of our home nor the circle of our acquaintances. There Is a re sponsibility resting upon us regard ing every person witn wnom we cume in contact, whether Intimately or dis tantly. "How often men try to ease their ennsrionces bv nrs-insr that they have never done anyone any harm, as if that would make them virtuous. This Is the cry of worldliness. "Many a thorough-going rascal naa been eulogized after he was gone, by the statement that he was good-hearted and never did anyone any harm; and many others press their claim to respectability on this ground. But is this not really a repetition of the old excuse of Cain: 'Am I my brother's keeper?" "You may hot like Cain, have ma liciously murdered your father's son, but how many victims of the licensed saloon, the social evil, and industrial oppression have gone down through misery to their graves, with your con sent, or at least without your open effort to destroy these worKS or. me evil one? Worthlessness is not a vir tue but a vice. Malicious mischief Is not necessary to make a person a sinner. "The question of responsibility comes not onlv to the individual, but to the church as the organized body, of the believers of Christ. The church is not merelv the Institution of the wealthier classes or any other class, for that matter. The church Is the spiritual society founded by our Lord himself to be the outward expression 01 nis kingdom in the hearts of men. "The responsibility of the church is not confined to the membership. Christ himself has laid the responsibility of missionary service upon the church and it will never be ignored by the true church of Christ. It is the busi ness of the church to follow in the footsteps of him who came to seek and save those who are lost, and to go wherever the lost may be found, com at home and abroad. "The true church of Christ will never rest content until it has found those at hand who know not the Christ and until it has sent its messengers to the uttermost parts of the earth to seek and save.- The intelligent and sincere Christian will ever stand ready to ac knowledge his keepership and none or the mountain paths of earth will be too steep and rugged to seek for those who have gone astray."

CIVIL ORDER UPHELD Possibilities of Progress Dis cussed by Rev. W. G. Eliot, Jr. ANARCHY. IS CONDEMNED Minister Declares That Those Who "Would Destroy Without Rebuild ing Are Dangerous Oppo nents of Civilization. PnnRArTfttlnn of civil ordei. as the onlv bane from which to make prog ress in the betterment of the condi tions of society, was upheld yester day hv Tfev. W. a. Eliot. Jr.. pastor of the First Unitarian Church, in his sermon on "Constitutionalism Versus Anarchism." Mr. Kliot in this sermon rienlt wlrh the essential elements Of differences between the two doctrines and the fallacy of the theory or an archism. In his sermon next Sunday, he will take up the constructive phases of the question of social reform under the existing governmental systems. In his sermon yesterday, Mr. Eliot said in part: "There was once a man wno ownea an orchard. It had cost him mucn. He had to clear the land, and scratch along on a scant living until the trees came into bearing, and meanwhile cultivate the soil diligently and fight iuuIr. When the orchard matured there was still more work to do. But it was a fair orchard, yielding an in creasing crop from year to year. "The owner of the orchard took his brother into partnership. The rirst apple xne orotuer maicu was decayed, the next had a worm at the core and the first tree he ex amined had a root disease. The new oartner insisted that the orchard be destroyed immediately. Did he not know from his own experience mat the orchard was totally bad? Had he not tasted the fruit of that orchard and Investigated it? "Har. wan o A on hi a hindrance to the development of the orchard. The new man might nave done nis part to im prove it. Instead of that he insisted unon its destruction.

Is the disproportionate distribution of wealth. The cause of poverty is not the civil order but, at most, delects in the civil order. Whatever else the cure may be, therefore, it is certainly not to be found In the total subversion of the civil order. First and funda mental is the conservation of the civil order as the only reasonable base from which to make more progress. For our own Nation this does not signny anv sort of blatant Americanism nor superficial optimism. It does not mean blindness to social ills and Btu pidity and laziness in their remedy. But it does mean essential loyalty o the Constitution of the country, written and unwritten. It is actually possible for a man to be loyal to nis country and at the same time wish to see .. ... rio-hteH inn nrapreaa made!

Your true anarchist would cure his dog or distemper uy .cuiiing the tail off up to the ears. "It Is unjust to charge all anarchism to the direct-action anarchists, to those whose only ethics Justifies whatever will enable them 'to take this wealth and wallow in it.' There is essential anarchy in every man who has not out grown the unchecked tyrrany of his own congenital greeds and lusts, in every soul circling around Its own dead center, unmoved and unguided by submission to transcendent forces, in every - houshold where distrust and waywardness hold sway, in every es sential disloyalty or antipathy whether In Individuals or in groups."

"Play demands a large and legiti mate place In human life," he said. "It ia not irreverent to think that the happy spirits of little children play In heaven. Assuredly they need play on earth. "Children should know how to play. So should adults. The world can never grow old with its sorrows, its burdens and It cares so lone: as most of us know how to play. Play has Its place in me ine 01 childhood, not merely for the sake of velopment of the children. For adults it means the harmonizing 01 tne over strained parts of human life- and the conservation of health, physical, mental, moral and spiritual. Let our modern life demand the right sort of play for children and adults; give play Its rightful place; determine tha proper function of play by Its effects upon the human life; in the great game of life make fair play a prime factor; when seriousness is turning to dullness make play and recreation the divine deliverer, and retain the fresh ness of feeling, and youthfulness of life."

Yoga Means "Unity." Mr. Mozumdar, who is to be a speak er at several of the meetings In Port land, ba? been in the United States for nine yef.rs. He was the first Hlr.du naturalised In this country. The T'ga philosophy differs from other religious philosophies In that it starts on the postulate of our own existence ana from that works out the theory of God, instead of starting with the assump tion of God. Yoga means "unity," the followers of the philosophy maintain ing that God. being perfect, cannot create, because creation Implies changefulness and, hence, imperfection. Mr. Mozumdar has not been pressing the organization of this sect for more than about three years, yet It has grown with great rapidity, especially on the Pacific Coast. Programme Ia Announced.
