THE MORNING OREGONIANV MONDAY. OCTOBER 19. 1914. 200 PRAY OUTDOORS Methodists Hold Service Rain Near Closed Church. in MEETINGS TO CONTINUE others. In other words, we cannot impart what we do not possess." Worshipers Before Padlocked Old Taylor-Street Edifice Declare Intent to Assemble Outside Until Old Home Opens. More than 200 members of the old Taylor-street Methodist congregation grouped about the padlocked doors of their dismantled church at Third and Taylor streets yesterday in a drizzle of rain and held a short service of prayer and cong. That they will continue to worship I outdoors until the church is opened to them once more and that they will not go with the other congregation to 'the new church at Twelfth and Taylor streets is indicated by their declaration that- they will hold similar services again next Sunday morning at the same place at 10:30 o'clock. Outdoors to Be Chores. "How many of you think that we should hold services like these here again next Sunday morning?" asked B. Lee Paget at the close of yester day's gathering. "Everybody!" came the answer. , "Very well," he said, "we will be here at 10:30 o'clock next Sunday morniefs." Throughout the service the tone was one of sorrow and regret on the part of the worshipers, rather than of bit terness toward the congregation of the church which had abandoned the old building for the new one at Twelfth and Taylor streets. "We only want to be let back Into our own church, to worship God as we have been accustomed, in the place we have been accustomed to," said one of the members of the congregation. Letters of Sympathy Read. Mr. Paget, who presided over the service, reaxl from Nehemiah, the chap ter descriptive of the defamation of the temple by Tobias and the restora tton of the holy utensils to it by Nehe miah. Hymns were sung and letters were read from sympathizers who did not belong to the congregation, but who desired to express their sympathy with the homeless worshipers. Ernest Stansbury, a young man, opened the meeting with prayer and at its close C. W. Gay, who first vis ited the church in 1862, prayed with tears that God might make it possible for the congregation to return to wor ship in the old building. After the meeting the greater part Of the people went to the First Con gregational Church as guests at the services there. "Everything else has been tried to curb the avarice of the liquor traffic, but there is but one remedy and that is Prohibition," declared M- J. Fanning, national Prohibition lecturer, at the White Temple yesterday. "Pro hibition has never failed. Never has a prohibition law been repealed by the people it has always been by poli ticians." The reason for seeming failure of prohibition to prohibit, he said, is that there are licensed states from which liquor may be shipped into dry terri tory. Extension of Prohibition will obviate this, he declared. "It is easier to watch a brewery than a blind tiger," he said. Mr. Fanning left yesterday after noon for Sheridan. Later he will go to Southern California and take the southern route to his home in Philadelphia. "Christianity is essential to suc cess in the life of any man, and to neglect it is essentially wrong," said the Rev. C. C. Rarick, pastor of the Central Methodist Church, yester day in his sermon on "The Tragedy of a Useless Lire. "Money, fame and position promise themselves to the young man just starting out in life and he is apt to pay more attention to these than to the deeper truths of life. But the world does not always keep its promises, and too often the man finds himself look ing back in old age, upon a life in which all of the bright promises have fallen to nothing.- Christianity alone gives- a man comfort and happiness that nothing else on earth can offer." TALK STIRS PRIEST Father O'Hara Decries Anti Catholic Sentiment. CHURCH'S DEEDS RECITED Free Classes in Knitting and Crocheting Art Department, 2d Floor 9 to 12, 1 to 5 Daily . "A single standard of conduct for practical and for spiritual life was argued by the Rev. J. J. Staub, pastor of the Sunnyside Presbyterian Church, last night, and he maintained that this is possible of achievement He pointed to the life of Daniel as proof of his contention. "Daniel's life was one of personal conviction; not of education or hered ity; and that individual conviction could not be lowered nor would it yield to apparently unalterable circum stances. The spiritual and natural life of Daniel proves that it is possible tor the practical and the spiritual in life to tie mixed and pursued under a common standard." CHURCH UNION LIKELY REV. FOLIXG PREDICTS BREACH WILL BE HEALED. Result of General Conference Reported and Confidence In Ontcome Is Expressed. METHODISTS PAY OFF DEFICIT Contributions Beach $'2518 to Meet Debt of but $1800. The congregation of the First Meth odist Episcopal Church, Twelfth and Taylor streets, at the services yesterday morning raised $2518 in less than half j.n iapur to pay off a deficit of $1800 and provide additional funds to pay for re cent repairs made in the church. At the close of the morning sermon on "The Tenth Beatitude," Dr. Frank L. Loveland turned the services over to George F. Johnson, of the finance com mittee, who explained the deficit and called for contributions. Pledges for sums ranging from $250 to SI were given until a total of several hundred dollars more than the deficit had been -raised. As an introduction to the financial theme of the morning. Dr. Loveland based his sermon on Paul's statement of Christ's saying "It is more blessed to give than to receive." "Only the man who appreciates the gift in the widest and fullest sense can understand the meaning of that state ment," said Dr. Loveland. "All of our progress depends upon appreciation. The native American Indians had access to all of the resources of the United States but nothing came of the wealth until the white men began to appreciate these resources and gave themselves to toil. It is only as we appreciate that we give back. "Not long since letters have come to me urging me to come back to Kansas. I am told what's the use," he continued, evidently referring to the criticism heaped upon him by the ex-members of the church who are now holding meetings in the street in front of the former church home at Third and Tay lor streets. "But I have answered that all that I Am X owe to the Methodist Episcopal Church and the gospel of Jesus Christ and that, with all the faults of the church and its members, the church is the biggest and most blessed institu tion in any community. I say this be cause of my- appreciation." In his prayer yesterday morning Dr. Loveland also made what was regarded as an incidental reference to the recent troubles within his church. Rev. C. C. Poling, who has been ab sent in the East attending the general conference and the commisison on or ganic union between the United Evan gelical and the Evangelical Association churches in Chicago, said in his address yesterday morning in the First Evan gelical Church, Ladd's Addition, that the reunion of the two branches of the Evangelical churches is now closer and more promising than ever before. Rev. Mr. Poling told" of the work of the general conference and the com mission on the subject of organic union At first, he said, the outlook seemed hopeless, as there were six points standing between the United Evangell cal Association and the United Evan gelical branches which seemed to make the union impossible. However, said Rev. Mr. Poling, a special report was made on these points of difference by a committee of which he was & mem' ber which makes union hopeful and probable. "The basis of union as set forth in this special report," said Mr. Poling "in my judgment makes ti possible for the two branches to overcome the six points of difference. Our concessions are fair and reasonable and have gone to the ii,vangeitcal Association. 1 am more hopeful than I have been for the past four years that the chasm that was opened 25 years ago in the Evan gelical family will be closed and we shall be one again. The general con ference of the Evangelical Association will meet next October and act on the offer we have made. If organic union fails I am sure it will not be the fault of the United Evangelical Church, but I feel that it will not rail." The Oregon conferences of both branches have gone on record as favor lng organic union,- and their represen tatives at the general conferences were instructed to do all they can to bring it about.

Papal Colony in America Called Cra dle of Liberty Where AU Sects Were Protected From Anger of Zealots. Father E. V. O'Hara spoke against the anti-Catholic sentiment that has arisen recently in many quarters of the United States, in his sermon at St. Mary's Cathedral yesterday, and. under the subject "The Catholic Church and Allegiance to Country," discussed the part that the Catholic Church has played in the progress of liberty in this country. 'I proclaim it as an undeniable hls- orical fact," he said, "that Catholics laid the foundation of religious liberty n the United States and have ever been t most ardent supporters. The Cath olic colony of Maryland was the cradle of civil and. religious liberty in this country. It was the only colony set tled by Catholics and it was the only one that upheld the banner of liberty of conscience. i 'Speaking of the foundation on the Potomac established by Leonard Cal vert, brother of Lord Baltimore, the historian Bancroft, whom no one will accuse of unduly favoring the Catho lics, writes, 'The Catholics took quiet possession of the little place, and re ligious liberty obtained a home, its only home in the wide world, at the humble village which bore the name of St. Mary's. The Roman Catholics who were oppressed by the laws of Eng land were sure to find a peaceful asylum in the quiet harbors of the Chesapeake; and there, too, Protestants were sheltered against Protestant in tolerance. The disfranchised friends of Prelacy from Massachusetts and the Puritans from Virginia were welcomed to equal liberty of conscience and po litical rights in the Catholic province of Maryland. 'As Catholics were foremost In granting liberty of conscience, so they have nobly fought to maintain it. George Washington, In an address to his Catholic fellow citizens after the War of Independence, observed: T pre sume your fellow citizens will not for get the patriotic part which you took in the accomplishment of their revo lution and the establishment of their government, or the important assist ance they received from a nation in which the Roman Catholic faith is pro fessed.' f.ome of our fellow citizens. however, seem to have forgotten the things which the Father of his Coun try signalized." HOME DIOCESE CONSENTS Election of Dean Sumner to Bish opric Approved at St. Louis. Rev. H. M. Ramsey, president of the standing committee of the Episcopal diocese or Oregon, has received response from the standing commit tee of the diocese of St. Louis, Mo., consenting to the election of Dean Wal ter T.

William Wallace Youngson took wni-iri'a iiaseball series as . -t m ni aermon at the Rose City Park Methodist Church yesterday on "The Third Strike." and he applied the characteristics that baseball develops in men to the moral problems of general life Baseball." he said, "is a clean and manly sport. Never was it so insistent as now in its demands for moral men. In an interview with 40 men la the major leagues it was ascertained that every one had been trained religiously. Many of them were members of some church, while others attended church regularly. "The things that help put a player out of the game are also the Important and potent factors in me s game. MatfaevwoB Is Quoted. "Over anxiety is a strong hindrance. Christy Mathewson. in his book, "Pitch ing in a Pinch,' Bhows that men fail because they lack confidence and are gripped by little bits of superstition. Fretting upsets the control of one's ssbilitv. Self-confidence makes him lose poise. The pitcher or the batter who is put in when everything goes wrong and is depended upon to stop a slump is called the 'pinch" man. He must be one who is always calm and steady. That made Crandall the res cuer of the Giants many times. Some pitchers will put all they have on each ball. When the pinch comes they haven't strength to last out. "A man should always hold some thing in reserve, a surprise to spring when things get tight. One must do his best, ignore the crowd, be unwor rled. calm-headed, steady and sure. "Frank Chance was hit in the head forty times, but he always went vig orously into every game.

(i V OST people have a Bible in their I I home; they take their little children to be received into the church; they prefer marriage by a minister and they desire a church burial." said Rev. F. D. Findley, of the First United Pres byterian Church, at the morning ser vice yesterday, "but they neglect to go deeper into the fundamentals of Chris tianity. They fall short on three things "vhich the Bible demands of each Christian, namely, that men be 'born again.' overhaxiled and regen erated within, that they assume a God given attitude toward Christ, one of loyalty, belief and concern and that they assume a God given attitude to ward fellowmen. "The forms and conventionalities of Christianity are among the most beau tiful things in our civilization but the true Christian must go deeper into the foundation of the whole." OPEN-AIR CHURCH IS HELD FOR MEMBERS OF OLD FIRST METHODIST CHURCH, WHO REFUSE TO WORSHIP AT NEW FIRST CHURCH. "The great trouble with most Christians of today Is that they ask. 'What they shail do to serve the "Lord before they ask who the Lord is,' aid Dr. Hinson In his sermon on "Who Is the Head of the Church?" yesterday morning. "Because they do not real ize that Christ is King, the Head who commands, those commands are un bearable to them and they fail to be true Christians. "The man with no outlook beyond this lire cannot respond to the voice of the Savior. Live in the realm of the spirit and the commands will not seem harsh and unjust but the rightful commands ot the Leader. "The clergy and the people have the same power To forgive which the Eon of God possessed," said Rev. George B. an Waters, of Grace Memorial Church, yesterday morning.
