PEACES SUNDAY THOUGHTS IN
I'OKTI.AND SKRMONS
YESTERDAY.
Feace and prosperity are twins,'
born of the same blood. No pros-,
perity is possible without peace.
The world is becoming spiritually
awakened and men are crying:
out for peace. Rev. A. A. Morri
son, rector Trinity Kpiscopal
Church.
God will not be held responsible
for calamities that come on men
through envy, pride, greed and
luet of power. The way back to
peace for men and nations is the
wav of God's counsel. The ap
peal of force is futile. Rev. T.
Bowen. rector St. Michael's and
All Angels' Church.
When we behold the nations of
the earth prostrate before God
pleading for clean hearts and a
right spirit, then and not till
then will there be peace on earth
and good will among men. Rev.
IajuIs Thomas. Woodlaw . M. E.
Church.
True reverance will bring
peace. Where reverence is culti
vated it fills society with purity
and kindness and invests those
who possess it with a spirit of
optimism. Rev. IS. Olin Eldridge,
Mount Tabor Methodist Church.
Nothing tends more to create
peace than cheerfulness in the
minds of the people. Cheerful
ness is a mental tone that puts
itself into everything. Rev.
George Dareie, First Christian
Church.
The world has become a melt
ing pot. The war is stirring all
humanity together. If one suf
fers, all suffer; if one shall pros
per, he must share his blessings.
Rev. J. D. Corby, First Univers
alist Church.
In the heart of every hardship
is a blessing. In the bosom of
every hindrance is a help. The
Lord has promised us vic
tory in the final issue of every
conflict in life, but he has not
promised ease on the way to vic
tory. Rev. T. W. Lane, Centen
ary Mehodist Church.
What the world needs, today is
something compelling us to do
the right, which our conscience
tells us ought to be done. Kev.
J. II. Boyd, First Presbyterian
Church.
Yesterday was observed as "Peace
Sunday."
In a large number of the churches of
the city the sermons dealt with the
need of world-wide peace, the causes
that lead to war and the means that
might be applied to bring about har
monious conditions.
The peace-Sunday movement was in
augurated by the clergymen of San
Francisco, who sent a general call to
t-lergry of the United States asking them
to co-operate in holding special services
in the interests of peace and in com
memorating the anniversary of. the
earthquake and fire that devastated San
Francisco April 18, 1906. Large con
gregations attended and united in the
prayers for peace and tnanksglving for
blessings. Hymns and anthems were
especially chosen for the occasion. While
"I'eace" was not in all instances the
topic of the day, it found a place in
the general thought emphasized by
nearly every pastor.
Dr. Morrison Heard at Trinity.
"What man is he that desireth life,
end would fain see many days? Keep
thy tongue from evil and thy lips from
rpeaking guile. Depart from evil and
tio good. Seek peace and pursue it."
With this text as his inspiration. Dr.
A. A. Morrison, rector of Trinity Epis
copal Church, preached one of the
strongest sermons of the day.
"The world has come to a stage when
it wants to know why." said Dr. Morri
son. "Why is death, why is war, why
desolation?" It isn't sufficient for men
to stand up in pulpits and say the
Bible says this and that. That isn't
enough. Men and women are asking
"Why?" Intelligence is one of the char
acteristics of life. It tnust always have
existed. Mind, since it is an existing
tiling, must have substance. One of the
manifestations of life seems to be in
stituted comparison. There is more or
leys, great or small, happiness or sor
row, peaco or war, states of progress
or retrogression. It Is not all Summer
and sunshine in the experience of liv
ing things in the world. : It is not all
Summer with the nations of the world.
There are trials to be gone through,
disciplines to be exacted. It was God's
plan for men to seek peace, to guard
their tongues. In spite of the war, I
maintain, the world is better now than
It used to be. It is emerging: from a
materialistic basis and has gone through
a whole scries of birth pangs in the
process.
Splrilnnl Awakening Noted.
"The world is becoming mentally and
spiritually awakened to great truths.
It ia learning that the biggest armies
and the most money are in no sense a
Buarantee of permanence for a nation.
They are now bringing God into the
battle and each side asks God to make
It the victor. They do not stop to rea
son that the face of God is set against
their unholy actions. God has suffered
man to make a food of himself that
through it all he may be made to think
and cry out for redemption. I tell you,
it's all wortli while. For It will make
men realize the need of God's peace.
Men have preached Justice and have
not been just. Justice and peace are
needed. The justice of the past has
been adulterated with greed. It has
not been Justice. The awakening is at
hand and men are eager for peace."
With "World-Peace" as his subject
Rev. Louis Thomas, pastor of Wood
lawn Methodist Church, emphasized
tnuteria lism and greed as the causes
fnr war and pointed out the duty of
the church to create a right spirit In
the hearts of .mankind.
Blame I, Bid to Materialism.
Dr. Thomas said:
"While the church prays ardently
for "world peace" she knows that her
desires cannot be realized until the
causes of war have been removed. This
or that event may have precipitated the
Ftruggle, but its real causes are psy
chological. They lie in the material
ism, the greed and lust of power, that
so often characterize National policy.
Man's heart Is out of tune with God
snd with his fellow-beings. 'The
wages of sin is death." The cure is not
to be found ia treaties and laws only
so far as these are the expression of
the real sentiment of the people. The
task of the church is to create the right
sentiment. When we behold tho na
tions prostrate before God pleading for
clean hearts and a right spirit, then
and not till then will there be "Peace
on earth and good will among men.
"Some European power or powers
have sinned and millions of inoffensive
people are unhappy victims. Can we
hold God responsible?" This was the
question asked by Rev. T. V. Bowen,
rector of St. Michael's and Ail Angels'
Church yesterday morning in his ser
mon from the text "Carcst Thou That
We Perish?"
Man'a Deafnesa Deplored.
Rev. Mr. Bowen said: "Can we point
to the bloody battlefields, the shattered
nomes and the- millions of dead and
say to God: "See thy work. Thou hast
done it!" God will not be held responsi
ble for the calamities that come on men
' FUNERAL OF SALEM HOP
DEALER TO BE HELD

Joseph Harris.
The funeral of Joseph Harris,
one of the leading hop dealers
of Oregon, who died suddenly in
his office at Salem Saturday,
will be held at J o'clock tomor
row afternoon at Elks' Hall, Sa

Salem lodge of Elks. A widow
and two minor children survive.
Several Portland hop dealers will

through envy, pride and lust of power.
'O Israel, thou hast destroyed thyself!"
Is his language that of indifference?
No, it is his call back to peace for men
and nations. He says: 'In me is thy
help. Not by might, nor by power, but
by my spirit.' saith the Lord of hosts.
Jesus came to bring peace to the earth
and fidelity to his principles will yet
bring war to an end."
In the First. Universalist Church Rev.
J. D. Corbj spoke on "Training Our
Boys Away From Military Ideals."
Boy Scout Phases Explained.
In the course -of his address he ex
plained many phases of the Boy Scout
movement. He said:
"Our most urgent work is with the
children and young people. It has been
the custom to give the little ones toy
soldiers to play with and knock them
over as sport. We have dressed the
babies in soldier and in sailor cos
tumes; we have supplied them with
guns and pistols, and many a luckless
animal, to say nothing of playmates,
have been wounded as a consequence.
We have glorified militarism and im
bued children with the idea that the
only heroism was on the field of battle.
Because I have been a boy. love boys
and with them far more than most men,
I realize the boy's hunger for adven
ture. I rer-.lize that he's a fighting
animal. The Boy Scouts of America
provides an instrument that develops
physical strength and preparedness of
our growing boys and men without
the military training. Boy Scout
work demands resourcefulness, orig
inality. It forces the boy to hammer
himself out into something individual.
As never before the whole world has be
come a great melting pot. The war
is stirring all humanity together, and
each is learning the good qualities of
the other. We can never put these
men back where they were. The uni
versallsm of art. of education, of com
merce, of science, must be followed by
universal brotherhood, which shall
sweep away the prejudice and suspi
cion." Salt of Christianity Urged.
In urging peace. Dr. A. C. Moses, of
the Waverly Heights Congregational
Church, spoke of the part that con
sistent Christians might play in the
world. He compared Christianity to
salt. He said:
"Like salt, the Christian is used for
two purposes in society to make It
palatable and to preserve it from de
cay. Making society palatable is but
sprinkling a bit of salt on the surface
of society. Salt must be held in solu
tion to preserve society from corrup
tion. "The sea is a true type of salted so
ciety. The briny deep carries salt to
everything in it. Like the sea. the
church must be liquid and flowing. It
must sweep over and saturate human
society.
'Salt in the sea is in the right place,
and the church in society is in its
rightful place."
MORE PART THAN WED
JUDGE GATKS S SCORES ALLEGED
GROWING IMMORALITY.
Sacredness of Marriage Relations Dis
regarded, Jurist Says, and Ar
Churches Are Doing Little. ,
In his address Saturday night before
the Woodlawn Grange on "Some Prob
lems That Interest Our Citizens," Judge
Gatens said that more divorces were
granted in Multnomah County last year
than there were marriages, and asserted
that much immorality was a conse
quence. 'We build fine courthouses and mag
nificent churches," said Judge Gatens,
"and then miss the real thing in the
moral training of our children. Of what
use is our $1,600,000 Courthouse? And
our magnificent churches, what are they
doing to improve moral conditions? Not
much. The congregations erect costly
structures, and their pastors go about
in automobiles! Think of Jesus Christ
going about in an autoniobile. '
"1 do not set myself up as a reformer,
but I have studied these problems in
the court, and I think I can see the
causes of divorce Increase and immor
ality. It is in the disregard of the
sacredness of the marriage relations.
We have set up a double moral stand
ard for men and women. The innocent
girl, the victim, is scorned, while her
betrayer is received in polite society.
Think of it! There were 11 children
born in Portland in one week who have
no name and no claim on their father.
At the last session of the Oregon Legis
lature I tried to have a bill introduced
compelling parents of these children to
marry to give these Innocent children
a name, but not a member would touch
the bill, and it is a much-needed meas
ure. These are some of the problems
we are confronted with and that must
be solved by common-sense methods."

Emma Cams, in Singing and
Dancing Act, Pleases
Her Audience.
TRACEY AND STONE CLEVER
Harry Cooper as Postman About
to Take Examination Wanders
Amid Audience and Hands
Out Letters Comedy Good.
BY LEONE CASS BAER.
While we watched Emma Carus hop
and roll abotit the Orpheum stage and
later when she sang most delightfully
I discovered that there Is absolutely
no difference between the plump head
liner on the Orpheum and Enrico
Caruso. One is E. Carus, t'other E.
Caruso. The o at the end of Caruso's
name means nothing (play that both
ways). Which makes Caruso equal to
Caruso. They're alike in respecta
oiner man a Juggling of names. Both
are plump both warble for pleased
audiences and get paid for it. Emma
is an intentional blonde with a Kitty
Gordonish backbone expose, an in
fectious chuckle and a rare sense of
comedy. She registers an emphatic
hit. calling up a picture of Trixie
Friganza done in azure and pink and
gold. Emma's best offering is "Tip
perary Mary,"" sung in an excellent big
voice, and Irish as to interpretation
and apparel.
Noel Fahnestock Is in the act, too.
Noel is exceedingly tall, exceedingly
thin and dances tall, thin, eccentric
dances, while Emma changes her gowns
off stage. As a finale the two give a
modern dance with acrobatic embroid
ering. An act that proved deservedly popu
lar is that of Stella Tracey and Victor
Stone, clever comedy folk, who sing
with original interpolations. Miss
Tracey has a package of personality
and her foolery delights.
A pretty girl with a contralto voice
is Ethel Ponce, who keeps the piano
busy for Stone-Tracey songs and
dances. These folk have new songs
and fresh bright patter, for which they
receive grateful appreciation.
Harry Cooper comes on as a post
man and wanders down into the audi
ence to distribute his letters. This
starts his act rolling along famously
and when he returns -to the Mtage it is
to pass an oral examination for a place
as commissioner. The questions asked
by Charles Henderson are of a nature
that affords Cooper every advantage
for comedy and he rises nobly. He
sings, too, a tuneful travesty in an ex
cellent voice.
A colorful and sensational act is
presented by the five Marvelous Man
churians, who vary their offerings
from tumblings and balancings to
swinging in midair suspended by their
queues.
Lee Bryan with a high tenor voice
and Mary Cranston with a flock of
golden hair sing Irish songs and
chatter a bit. A twain of Turners
play, appear xylophonically, and a
brace of Carletons open the bill wttn a
quiet and uneventful gymnast act.

"Too much father-in-law" was the
explanation o"f family difficulties at
an informal hearing in Juvenile Court
Saturday morning by Mrs. Mary Ed

"Usually troubles like this arise over

The hearing wa held to determine

STRANGE VOICEWINS
Canadian Woman Charms All
at Teachers' Concert.
$200 IS ADDED TO FUND
Orplieus Male Chorus Also Delights
Ileilig Audience and Grouping
of Singers Increases Vocal
Effect III Are to Be Aided.
BY JOSEPH MACQL'EES.
Mrs. J. Macdonald Fahey, dramatic
soprano, from Victoria, B. C, captured
a willing-Portland audience yesterday
at the Heilig Theater, on her first visit
to this city, by her exquisite vocal
artistry.
The occasion was at a concert to aid
the fellowship fund of the Grade
Teachers' Association of this city for ill
and needy schoolteachers, and the event
was a great success. A large audience
Comfortably filled the theater, and after
paying expenses it is estimated by one
of the committee that between $200 and
$300 will be available for the fund.
" The concert was given jointly, so far
as the fine programme is concerned and
the great pleasure it furnished, by the
Orpheus Male Chorus, William Mandell
Wilder, conductor, and Mrs. Macdonald
Fahey, as soloist.
Canadian Singer Delights.
The Orpheus chorus is well and de
servedly known in this city, where in
musical circles it is a household word.
But Mrs. Fahey, until yesterday, came
to this city as a stranger. Such Is the
power of a magnificent singing voice,
coupled with gracious personality, that
Mrs. Fahey can now reckon that she
has made many Portland friends. Mrs.
Fahey is a native of New Brunswick,
her home for several years has been in
Victoria, B. C, where her father is edi
tor of the Colonist newspaper, and her
voice was trained by George Sweet, of
New Tork City.
Mrs. Fahey is easily one of the prin
cipal dramatic sopranos of the Pacific
Coast, and can be reckoned as a great
Canadian soprano. Her voice is big.
strong, sweet, ringing, grand. It is
well under control, both in full voice
and "mezzo voce," or half voice.-
Voice Remarkably Flexible.
It is dramatic enough to render, with
success, the "Infelice" aria by Men
delssohn and the "Vissi E' Amore," from
Puccini s Tosca, yet it is lovely and
flexible to use in the difficult aria.
Rejoice Greatly." from Handel's "Mes
siah." Her voice is full and bright also
in "The Years at the Spring" and dainty
in A Memory (Parke). Mrs. lahey
was recalled every time she sang. She
has a tall, stately, splendid stage pres
ence.
The Orpheus choral singers num
bered 35 men and they sang with charm
and splendor of fine vocal shading.
The first tenors were placed exclusive
ly in the front rank, with the bassos
behind them on much the same plan
as the grouping of first-class symphony
orchestras and, accordingly, the audi
ence drank in admirable ensemble
choral effect, with no one body of
voices predominating.
Mr. Wilder made an excellent con
ductor, and E. E. Courser was admir
able as piano accompanist for Mrs.
Fahey.
FIRE WORK IS OUTLINED
MARSHAL STEVEXS SAYS HALF OF
BLAZES ARE INCENDIARY.
Portland Theaters Generally Declared
to Be Dangerous While fnrtalni Are
Held to Be not Fireproof.
Jay W. Stevens, fire marshal, out
lined In hi3 talk yesterday before the
Current Events Club of Westminster
Presbyterian Church what is being done
in Portland to reduce the number of
fires and consequent heavy losses, and
he received assurances of support of
the men present. Mr. Stevens said the
losses In Portland for the last year
were about $2,000,000 and 16 lives, and
that practically all fires were caused
by carelessness or arson, the latter
causing, he said, about 50 per cent of
the fires where the loss was heavy. He
gave some of his experiences while in
the East and the things he had learned.
To prevent fires in. Portland and
lessen the loss of property and life a
system of inspection had been started,
he said, and a school for the prevention
of fires established. The inspection
showed where there was danger that
can be prevented, but commenting on
fires caused by arson Mr. Stevens said
they are great problems, as the evi
dence in arson cases Is practically cir
cumstantial, and one case is now pend
ing in the court-
The fire marshal said that the fire
losses in Portland had been heavy and
the loss in life correspondingly heavy,
but with the introduction of inspection,
with the co-operation and support of
the public, both can be reduced. Mr.
Stevens said that the Portland theaters
are generally dangerous, and that the
so-called fireproof curtains are not fire
proof at all.
DARING FEATS PLANNED
Y. M. C. A. BOYS TO PUT ON CIRCUS
PERFORMANCE.
Donald Bennett Victim of Many Acci

Grand Trapeme Act.
Donald Bennett. 13, Is the "nerviest"
of the many nervy young performers
in Jarum & Bingum's Circus, to be
presented by the boys of the Young
Men's Christian Association Friday
and Saturday nights.
In one. of the most risk-defying acts
of the circus Donald Is held by the
ankles by one trapeze performer,
swung far out over the arena until the
trapeze gets up sufficient momentum
and then is thrown to another aerial
bar artist, who grabs him as he goes
shooting through space, turning all
sorts of contortions in the air.
Several times, during tho preparation
of this act for the circus In the Y'. M.
C. A. gymnasium, the receiving per
former. Rex Thornton. has missed
Donald when he was thrown by Philip
Wilder and the lad has continued hie
flight through the air, coming up short
against the floor and gymnasium wall.
In one of his latest rehearsals Don
ald slipped from the grasp of Thornton,
dropped 10 feet and skidded across the
gymnasium, floor on his hands and
face. Although thisvha happened sev

been hurt and goes back to do the act
over again. This will be one of many
thrilling acts that the boys are plan

Probably the most popular number
on the Lyric bill this week Is the ren
dition of the prison scene from "II Tro
vatore." by the Duroma duo. The work
of those two singers is of a higher
artistic finish than is usually found on
the vaudeville stage. They give a num
ber of duets, all of which are good and
catch the audience.
In their opening number the soprano
enters on the stage alone and begins
the sons. The tenor, dressed as a news
boy, takes his place among the crowdB
Just below the footlights, and when the
chorus is reached Joins in the song with
his clear tenor.' The result is a pleas
ant surprise for the audience.
Sam Rowley, the little man with the
big voice and the mysterious whistle,
is popular with the crowd. He has a
number of good jokes and song bits and
brings in his whistle In such a way as
never to fail to make a laugh.
Miss Ollie, billed as America's finest
developed woman athlete, gives ex
hibitions with the punching bag and the
Indian clubs, and demonstrates a num
ber of blows which have made cham
pions in the pugilistic world.
"Love and Love" is a musical skit in
which a number of good songs are in
troduced. The act ends with a solo,
accompanied by chimes, which is new
and good.
The moving picture numbers are
good, there being several pictures
which prove popular with the crowd.
"The Tramp." featuring Charlie Chap
lin, is a particularly good comedy. It
brings in a number of funny situations
Incident to the tramp's attempt at farm
life. "The Girl Engineer" Is a picture
