While Adams was the first Presi dent to call e. peace prayer day, the custom dates back to the earliest New England days. In 1621 Gov ernor Bradford called on the people to give thanks for their crops, which call resulted in the American Thanks giving custom and day. A second day of prayer was also called In the colonies " hen a drought threatened, and while the people were praying in the church, rain began to fall, history records. "Peace Week" was launched under the auspices of the Portland Rotary Club at a mass meeting of Portland citizens in the old Baker Theater yesterday, and throughout this week meeting: after meeting will be held by various clubs at which the interest of the public will be directed persistently toward the move ment tor universal peace. In all churches of the city the ser vices were devoted to the cause of peace at the different worship hours yesterday. Special peace music, spe cial prayers and programmes had been arranged and large congregations re sponded to the local application of l'resident Wilson's proclamation and request for a peace devotional. The rally at the Baker Theater was fittingly led up to by peace sermons in practically every church in the city, and the speakers of the day at the theater dwelt persistently upon the vital necessity of keeping the public opinion of the United States directed toward peace in the present crisis, rather than toward war. Patriotic music by the Police Band, which had donated its services, open ed the programme, after which N. G. Pike of the Rotary Club, introduced Ur. W. T. Foster, president of Reed ' College and vice-president of the Ore gon Peace League. lr. Foster spoke on the "Fallacies of War." The per sistent teaching of the "glories of war" he denounced, saying that - the char acteristic of war is that it is not glo rious, but terrible and destructive, and he dwelt upon the economic wasteful ness of the doctrine of armament to maintain peace, and also the futility of hoping to maintain peace by armed preparation. ' The Old Theory Refuted. "Preparation for war does not guar antee peace," he said, "and this is most truly shown by the present condition in Europe. It is not unarmed nations, but the nations that have made the greatest and most elaborate prepara tions for war, that are involved in the struggle. Neutral and unarmed Switz erland and Holland, Spain with little armed preparation and Norway and Sweden, are not the nations that are affected by the war. "Where there are no soldiers, where there are no forts, where there are no guns, thre will be no war. What have the- thousands of miles of forts done on the German, French and Rus sian frontiers to prevent war? Be tween the United States and Canada we have 3000 miles of frontier with not one fort and not one soldier on it, and it, is 3000 miles of substantial argument for disarmament, and has been so for the past 100 years. Dr. Foster praised the policy of the administration and the attitude taken by the United States in the present war. "The Nobel peace prize has never yet been given to a nation, but if the United States continues to act with the same wise moderation and zealousness for peace and civilization that she has used thus far, at the end of this year the nations of the world will agree that for the first time in history the Nobel prize should be awarded to a na tion, and that Nation the United States of America." Patriotism la Denned. C. E. S. Wood spoke of the horror and destructtveness of war, and urged that every American citizen should with broad patriotism make himself a cen ter for the formation of a public opin ion that shall be forever opposed to the hasty declaration of war. "Patriotism is not to fight at the be hest of another, in a selfish war of in vasion and aggression, but' it is to de fend our own homes against the inva sion of any who are still savage enough to invade them. "Wars have ever been declared by a few men. Had war been declared against Mexico a few months ago. even here in democratic America, it would have been by a few men before the mass of the people could say whether or not it should be. Wars of Invasion and conquest are the mere game of Kings and leaders of governments by a few for the benefit of a few. "If we glorify war it is because we are in intellect today no better than savages. The art treasures of the world, which can never be repaired or dupli cated, the flowers of the labors of ages in Europe, are today going up in smoke before the shot and shell of barbarians, I care not which side they may fight on. "Let each of us, then, go from this hall and become a. center of influence among our fellows, working to bring about the time when each man shall say 'With my consent, there shall be o more war! " . The second feature of tfce peace week observance under the auspices of the Rotary Club will be the addresses at each of the public schools this morning at 9 o'clock, speakers having been pro cured by the club. The weekly luncheons of each of the leading civic organiza tions of Portland will make peace week the feature of their programmes. First of these will be the East Side Business Men's Club, which meets to day, and the midday meetings of other clubs through the week will be as fol lows: Tuesday. Rotary Club: Wednes day, Ad Club: Thursday, Progressive Business Men's Club; Friday, Realty Board; Saturday a joint peace rally of all of the organizations of the city at 12 o'clock at the Commercial Club. WILSOX DEEMED GOD'S AGEXT Rev. Luihcr It. Dyot Thankful That Peace Plan Wins Kespons. "Let us thank God for thinking through the mind of President Wilson, and that we have a President who calls upon us to pray that the European war shall end, and that speedily," said the Rev. Luther R. Dyott. in his Peace sermon at the First Congregational Church yesterday, "and let us thank God that so many have ' responded to the President's request. "These things are worth something. We shall at least be on record as hav ing entered our prdtest in the highest and most solemn terms against war. There can be no higher protest than that which we send by way of the throne of God. Even if, in spite of our prayers, our brothers in Europe con tinue to fight it out to the bitter end, still it shall have een worth some thing that we have prayed." HYMXS PRESENT PEACE PLEA Silent Prayers at First Church of Christ Scientist Give Opportunity. No sermons in the ordinary accept ance of the word are preached in Chris tian Science churches. In place of these, citations are read from the Bible and also from "Science and Health, With Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy. .The subject chosen for yester day was "Unreality," consequently there was no audible discussion on peace as at, other churches, but In tl-.e ob servance of "silent prayer" it was fit ting that the congregations included in their supplications a plea that peace will prevail in Europe by which the present war will cease. At the First Church of Christ, Scientist, Nineteenth and Everett streets, all the hymns sung ty tne congregation reflected the thought of "peace." Itailroad Uses Peace Emblem. In recognition of President Wilson's Peace . day proclamation the Northern Pacific dining-car department has ar ranged to place in each of its dining cars the figures of two large doves symbolical of peace. The doves will remain inthis silent service all week. Peace Tags Sold at Hood River. HOOD RIVER. Or.. Oct. 4. (SnecialA School girls sold'"peace tags" yester day bearing the inscription, "Peace Sunday, October 4. 1914. I will go to church." All local ministers spoke on peace. UNIVERSAL PEACE TOPIC I'll. MORRISON DECLARES MIGHT IS NOT NECESSARILY RIGHT. Strife of All Kinds Deplored and Hope la Expressed That We May Catch Spirit of the Master. "Might, as represented by, armament, does not necessarily represent right. There is coming to prevail in the minds of the people who represent- the prog ress of the world a conviction that armament is a failure," said Rev. A. A. Morrison, of Trinity Episcopal Church, yesterday morning in his sermon on "Universal Peace." "We have approached a new era." said Dr. Morrison; "an era in which certain disclosures are being made. The woria is learning, and when it learns there will be a change marked by prog ress. I do not mean that with one sweep we can throw away every gun, sink every battleship and level every military post and prison. A certain amount of evolution is necessary. "It does not necessarily follow that those who possess the greatest strength of armament represent the highest type of National consciousness. We are com ing to suspect that when a nation is trained to war and has all the machin ery with which to fight that it will yield to the call of greed, covetousness and selfishness. "It has been proved that armament does not keep peace. Yet, the main taining of armies and navies has not been altogether a bad plan, nor alto gether at variance with the will of Almighty God. Each thing, each event. contains its lesson and application to the strife between man and man. This war is a reflection of the inner strifes. Shall we exempt the church from this stigma of strife? No. We have had church against church, and now it is time for all men to realize that there is one God, one Father who holds all nations closely to his heart. Away with tnis nonsense or caste, creed and color hatred. Away with the idea that God made one nation better than another. Away with pride, bombast and pretense. Let us eaten the spirit of the Master and believe that 'unless a man become as a little child he cannot enter the Kingdom oi heaven. Dr. Morrison, in speaking of the dav set apart for prayer for peace, said: "It is significant of the approach of a higher and holier concept when the chief executive of this great Nation, in rear, love and reverence of Almisrhtv God. turns his heart and the hearts of nis people to so splendid a theme as universal peace. Dreamers of ooetrv. and prose who have been hoping and looKing into tne rar-away future, when war shall be no more, did not alto gether dream in vain. There seems to be in the atmosphere a longing born of necessity, but strictly human, for peace. In all the world's progress, however, the old is rarely supplanted until we are ready for the new to take its place. Many areN now seeing that the old venerated ideas regarding war should pass and that & period of urjlift should come." CHURCHES HAVE RALLY DAY Special Services Swell Audiences to Hear Peace Sermons. In addition to the observance of yes terday as an occasion for prayer for peace, a large number of the churches of the city held membership rallies. In the First Congregational Churcli Sunday School there was a rally day programme for the young people. In the First United Brethren Church at East Morrison and East Fifteenth streets there was an Inspiring rally service. A special rally and prayer service was held in the First Universalist Church, it being the fifth anniversary of the placing of the cornerstone of the church. Calvary Baptist Church, Rev. Walter Duff pastor, held a peace day and rally service preparatory for the annual roll- call which will take place next Friday evening. "Home-coming Day" was co-incident with Peace day in the Church of our Father (Unitarian.) At both morning and evening services the auditorium of the church was well filled. SOCIAL SIDE IS SEEN Christ's Teachings Expounded . . by Father O'Hara. VIEWS RADICALLY OPPOSED Church Takes Middle Ground in Philosophy, Declaring Spiritual and Social Life to Be Insep arable, Says Priest. "Man is a social and economic as well as a spiritual oeing." said Father O'Hara, who, as chairman of the In dustrial Welfare Commission, has been active in promoting better economic conditions for women and" children workers. In his sermon on "The Social Message of Christ," at St. Mary's Ca thedral last night. , "Christ came for the salvation of man." said Father O'Hara, "but man is composed of both body and soul. His soul is. indeed, by far the more important, but his body cannot be neglected. "In a day of social reform pro gramme, there is no more fruitful study than the social teachings of Christ. Two views radically opposed to each other have been set forth con cerning Christ's attitude to social re form. The Catholic Church, as Is usual, occupies the middle ground between them, recognizing the truth in each view and rejecting the extravagance of each. "Christ's primary message concerned man's relation to God. 'Seek ve first the kingdom of God.' The spiritual is always first; 'What doth it profit a man to gain the whole world -if he lose his own soul." But as a necessary supplement to this first law of the love of God, Christ enunciated his sec ond law of the love of the neighbor, the foundation of all social reforma tion. "Nor is it possible to separate com pletely the spiritual and the social. To do so involves a great fallacy. Indi vidual rectitude is the beginning of so cial well-doing No man can be justi fied in the eyes of God if he be unjust to his fellow-man. In preaching a spiritual doctrine Christ was laying the foundation for a social ernni Christ insisted on unselfishness and tnus laid the ax to the root evil and greed. He proclaimed the eaualitv of ail before God and thus undermined all slavery. tie raised marriage to the dignity of a sacrament, elevated the state of woman and recreated society." PASTOR'S FAREWELL SAID Rev. Delmer H. Trimble to Depart for Tacoraa This Week. "The past four years have been harmony and progress," said Rev. Delmer H. Trimble in his farewell message to his congregation at Cen tenary Methodist Church yesterday. Dr. Trimble will depart this week for Tacoma to take the pulpit of Dr. T. W. Lane. Dr. Lane will come to Port land Wednesday and will preach his first sermon in Centenary Church next Sunday. Dr. Trimble spoke in retrospect of the pleasure that had come to him in his work and urged members of the congregation to continue in the splen did work they were doing. His out look for the future, he said, was full of hope A demonstration of the Sunday school work that had been Mrs. Trimble's especial charge called forth the high est praise from visitors, who had at tended the world's Sunday school con vention at Zurich. Of Dr. Lane, Dr. Trimble said: "The pastor appointed is without doubt one of the forefront divines of the Pacific Coast. He has been greatly beloved by his people in Tacoma and will find ready access to the hearts of this people and make himself felt in this city." Sermon Thoughts From Portland Churches. F YOUTH grows up in idleness 1 and sin, when old age comes the streets will be desolate and the doors closed for that life," said Dr. W. O. Shank, of the East Side Baptist Church, in his sermon yesterday on "The Picture of a Wasted Life." Continuing the general theme he said: "Youth is a time for building up character. It is a time of preparation. Middle age is the constructive period. Old age is the reaping time. I appeal to the young people to remember their Lord in the time of their youth and bless ings shall come to them throughout the years and when old age comes there will be for them no picture of a wasted life." Special prayers for peace and for the general love and fellowship of all mankind were -a part of the service conducted by Dr. Shank. AT Kenilworth Presbyterian Church, a large congregation assembled last night to hear Rev. Lw K. Richard son's sermon on "The President's Prayer Proclamation." He said: "The greatest act of President Wil son's administration was his national proclamation urging the citizens of this land to go to church the first Sunday of October and pray for peace and forgiveness of sin. It is the greatest act because it concerns the people of five continents and involves issues which are as far-reaching as eternity itself. It is a cause for great re joicing that our President is a man who believes in prayer. Although prayer is the mightiest force in the universe today and as real as teleg raphy or telepathy, it is little used by the American people and therefore as a Nation we have deservedly lost benefits and blessings which we could Just as well have enjoyed. t"T HE kind of man the woman of X tomorrow will look for will not be the millionaire's son," said Dr. E. S. Bollinger, of Highland Congregational Church, last night, "but he will be a man rich in moral influence -ot in heritance of the past. He will be a man of heroism who will play the hero in life's struggle for the main tenance of peace. She will look for his sympathy in the noblest instincts of womanhood. He will be a strong, manly man, one who is not afraid to do right." ifX HE cause of this war is the 1 lack of the reign of the Prince of peace in the hearts or mankind. The common, people in Europe, the masses, the men who are fighting and the women who are suffering, they are not the ones who want the war. It has- been forced on them by condi tions," said the Rev. J. B. Thoren. pastor of the Swedish Tabernacle who has Just returned from abroad. "I have talked to the people, have read the white and yellow papers of the various nations and I feel deeply for the men engaged. This state of affairs brings to us strongly the need of the presence of the Prince of peace In the hearts of alL We realize that 1 under the stars and stripes we axe greatly blessed and that we must give of our deepest sympathy to our brethren across the seas, t "I nave seen the midnight sun and the total eclipse in Northern Scandi navia and many other wonderful sights but the horrors of war have been very close to me and I am thankful to be among my congregation once more and to lead them in prayers that universal peace may Boon come." Rev. Mr. Thoren, however, said that from his observations in the lands en gaged in war, he feared that the end was not near. A large reception by the members of his church welcomed the pastor's home-coming. REV S. R. HAWKINS, pastor of the Central Christian Church, voiced the general peace theme of the day in a few short talks Interspersed among the prayers that were the order of service. in his church yester day morning. "The hope of the world lies in Christianity," said Dr. Hawkins. "Christianity and the United States must and will bring permanent and world-wide peace. This country must put itself in a position to stand firmly for arbitration, to command the situa tion and settle differences." In the evening Mrs. Mary Harris Armor, a temperance worker from Georgia, spoke on prohibition. Music, hymns and talks were all along the line of peace. t( ND, seeing the multitude, he was . moved to compassion, was the Biblical inspiration for Dr. F. L. Love land's eloquent - sermon on "Christ Weeping O'er a World at War," deliv ered yesterday morning in the First Methodist Church. Dr. Loveland said: "It was Christ's obligation to the mul titude that caused him to weep o'er their trials and passions, their wars and sorrows. The trouble with man kind has always been that he has sought to localize patriotism and re ligion. Christ's , attitude was not so. He extended his' love to all men alike. France, Germany, England, Russia, each land has seen only its own prob lems. The world problem it has not seen. Only as we come to recognize the world multitude and the great needs of humanity as a whole, can we do away with world war." (tfl OD is not always with the victor. VI He Is with moral victory any where and everywhere." avowed Rev. W. G. Eliot yesterday in his sermon of "Prayer for Peace" at the Church of Our Father. "A true prayer to heaven releases into our lives all that God can give." HOMAS was an unqualified re porter. He wasn't there when the story broke. He. got the informa tion later, but missed the point." The Rev. A. B. Calder. who made these statements yesterday morning in Trinity Methodist Church, was not referring to the modern newspaper man. He spoke of Thomas, the disciple, as the "unquali fied reporter," the man who wasn't there to receive the message of his Master. ' When the church members do not at tend service, he said, they invariably miss an opportunity to hear some mes sage or to receive some blessing that Christ has sent for them. This was the general theme of Rev. Mr. Calder's sermon. His text was: "Thomas, one of the 12. was not with them when Jesus came." His subject was "The Unqualified Reporter." BOLD 'BAD MEN' CAUGHT Al'GlST LARSON, 10, AND WILLIE POOLE, 12, HELD BY POLICE. Numerous Burglaries Charged to Bandit-Aspirants. Recently Es caped From Detention. They were bandit aspirants and their exploits were as near the lines set forth in "Diamond Dick," their hero, but nevertheless generosity filled their little souls and while on lawless missions their motto always was "Have a Little Heart." Such is a synopsis of the careers of August Larson, 10, and Willie Poole, 12. Willie bestowed upon himself the title of "Woody" and he crowned his daring pal with the title of "Dead wood." Their adventures led to their in carceration in the Frazer Detention Home. Not to - be daunted, the boys escaped the "Sheriff's posse." personi fied by the matrons at the home, a week ago. They robbed the Failing Market of $47.65 a week ago by break ing a window, the police say. They then rounded up some newsboys and proposed a chicken dinner. Sev eral of the newsies had papers to sell and didn't want to leave the streets until the sales were made. "Woody" and "Deadwood" settled the difficulty by purchasing all their papers. The boys were caught again, but Wednes day they again ran away from Frazer Home. That night they are said to have robbed a Jewelry store, a hard ware store and another meat market, all located on Union avenue. They were arrested yesterday at Grand ave nue and East Morrison streets by Pa trolman Ennis. So ends, the police hope, the daring exploits of "Six-Shooter Woody" Poole and "Deadwood Harry" Larson. They will be returned to the home today. A cache was located and a quantity of tobacco was found. 1 High Cost of Dyeing Is De clared Serious Matter. As Germany Produces Great Bulk of Dyes, American Market Is Sadl Depleted. A JOKE relative to the high cost of living in America, due to the war in Europe, is now in order from some amateur jest-maker, and it will have a pretty solid foundation of reality back, of it at that. It costs nearly . 100 per cent more to day to obtain the material with which to dye than it cost before the war be gan, and accordingly the prices in all of the dyeing establishments have been boosted to meet the emergency. Most of the dyestuffs are produced in Germany, where the system of utiliz ing by-products has made it possible for them to produce at much less cost than factories in other countries. This source of supply is now cut off and prices accordingly have Jumped about 150 per cent. "Dealers had become so accustomed to prompt supplies from Germany that the present conditions' hit them unex pectedly and naturally made things more difficult than would have been the case ordinarily." said E. L Braden, buyer for Woodard, Clarke & Co. "In time things may adjust themselves, but for a while high prices in dyestuffs and in dyeing are likely to prevail." "While the advance in the price of dyestuffs has been about 10 per cent," Bays the manager of the City Dye Works, "tho charges for dyeing have not yet made a corresponding advance, because many of the establishments have on hand a -fair supply of dyes. No advance in the cost of dyeing men's suits has been made by our firm yet. The charge for dyeing women's suits has been advanced from $3 to $3.50. If the war continues, however, and no means is found to bring supplies from Germany or the factories in Germany are permanently closed or destroyed, there probably will be a still greater advance, urtil American industry can find some way to make up for the lack.'' MINDS ARE TESTED Three Classes at Reed College Still Undergo Experiments. CLASS WORK IS COMPARED Effort Being Slade to Find Basis for Psychological Examination to Gain College Entry, as Old Method Is Disliked. Psychological experiments on the students at Reed College that have been carried on now for over two years for the purpose or oevjsing a new and better method tor admission to college are nearlng completion. When the ex periments are finished they will have been performed on three classes in the sophomore year and the present fresh man class In its first year. In all the tests will have been given to more than . 200 students. The general plan of the psychological tests Is to devise a series of tests that will give an indication of the mental ability of the student under examina tion without regard to the extent of specialized knowledge. Thus in a for mal examination in English a student might be required to quote a poem from some particular author, and his success in that question would be large ly a matter of chance. In the mental tests, however, if this point were cov ered at all, the ability of the student to learn poetry would be given a thor ough trial and the results could be compared with the results attained by other students in exactly similar con ditions, ''he tests are given in memjry, association, suggestion, ability to Tea son and ability in mathematical calcu lation.' Comparison Made With Classworlc After the tests are given and the re sults tabulated they are compared with the grades obtained by the student in his regular college work. If on the whole it is found that the students average about the same in the tests as in their college studies it will be taken as evidence that the tests furnish an accurate means of determining the ability of students to do college work. By these comparisons it Is possible to make the tests more effective and to eliminate those that do not correlate with the college grades. The ultimate purpose in making the tests is to have means of determining admission to col lege. High school grades given by various teachers in different parts of the coun try are declared unreliable as a means of Judging the relative merits of stu dents who may apply for admission to college. Work Covers Wide Scope. As the Investigation at Reed College is strictly scientific in its character, nothing- definite hae been given out regarding its success. However, it Is known that President Foster and Dean Rowland, professor of psychology, who has the tests in charge, are well pleased witn tne results so far obtained. The reason that they are being con tinued with a large number of students Is that the results from a large group are naturally more reliable than if taken with only a small group. The work is slow necessarily, since each student must be taken separately, and it requires about two hours to give the test to each student. The tests made true semester will be correlated with the grade given out at the end of the semester, and it is expected then that the results will be ready for announce ment. WATER VOTE IS PROBABLE New Payment Plan May Be Sub mitted at Recall Time. If a recall election is held, the City Commission in all probability will sub mit to the voters at the same election a measure providing for the quarterly collection of water rates, the fixing of a new minimum of 50 cents a month for both metered and unmetered service and the billing of all charges against the premises instead of against the oc cupant, as at present. The City Com mission instructed- City Attorney La irCoche Saturday to prepare a measure for submission to the Council at its next meeting. At that time Commis sioner Brewster will have returned to the city and the views of the entire Commission can be had. The plan Is similar to that proposed by Commissioner Daly about eight months ago and which was voted dow by the Commission. His plan is to send out bills for water only every three months, the bill to be for three months in arrears. The bill will be against the premises and not against the occupant of the premises, as at present. In the ordinance Mr. Daly proposes to fix a lower minimum charge lor service. He would have the least charge for service 50 cents for metered or unmetered service instead of 76 cents for these services, as at present.
