TTTE BICmXTXG OTtEGOXIAN, 3IOXDAT, 3IAUCII 5, 1917. 13 DR. C. B. WALLER IS AT WHITE TEEV1PLE Opening Sermon Brings Pledge to Serve Church, but Not to Take Dictation. FAITH HELD PRE-EMINENT Congregation Is Urged to right Good Fight and to Win, Even to Sacrifice, and to Suffer, and Find It Worth While. With a large congregation assembled to greet him. Dr. Calvin B. Waller yes terday took up bis duties as pastor of the White Temple. Before his sermon on "The Race Set Before Us," Rev. Mr. Waller announced in his "platform" that he would try to serve his church to the best of his ability; that he would be its leader, not its dictator; that he would welcome suggestions from all, but dictation from none. "I take my orders from heaven," said the pastor. "Don't expect too -much at first." -warned the new minister, who said he must first learn the people and the city. He expressed his intention to serve in any way, saying: "I cannot neglect my study and the pulpit; but. I yearn for fellowship with you in home, office and store. No night will be too dark; no hour too late for me to come to you. If you need me. Treat me as you do your physician if you need me, call me. Don't expect me "just to know your needs that you are sick, without your seeing that I am told. Call the church phone when your need arises. Own Family Is Discussed. "Don't expect too much of the pas tor's family. They are simply people like other people. They live by the same standards as others. My wife is my most confidential and efficient helper; she is the pastor's assistant, but not an assistant pastor. Her small children, home cares, and health will not permit it. "Don't tell me each other's faults," admonished Dr. Waller. "I don't need to know them. Tell me all the good things about each other; I'll find out the bad. if there are any. Don't point to the weak places In the church life -that is disheartening. Say encourag ing things. "Many a leader has been killed by discouragements; many another has been made by words of good cheer. Flowers In the life help far more than flowers on the grave. With me and mine, a little encouragement, an un expected kindness, a word of good cheer, an evidence of appreciation, so a. lone way. Platform Statement Is Made. "My people to be, again I join all I have with you; will you Join all you have with me, for the glory of our blessed Lord and Master, and for the saving and uplifting of humanity? "In order that you may know me and what I stand for, and what I am to expect of you, I beg to state my platform and principles. "A befitting feature of every Inaug uration is a declaration of principles by the one inaugurated. "In assuming the responsibilities of the pastorate of the White Temple, it seems especially in keeping that 1 should state clearly some things. "X affirm my abiding faith in the in spiration of the old book the Bible; and, without apology or compromise, I accept its teachings as the revealed word of God, and the rule of human conduct. "I stand for. and shall preach, a sane, aggressive evangelism salvation from siu through repentance toward God, and faith in the atoning blood of Jesus Christ, by the effectual working of the holy spirit in regeneration," an nounced Dr. Waller. Church Held Pre-eminent. "The church, to me. Is the pre-eminent organization of earth, commis sioned by Jesus to evangelize the world. There is no sphere of human need that should not be met by the church. The ministry of Jesus' was three-fold healing, teaching, preach ing meeting the three-fold need of mankind body, mind and souL No church has come to its best, that is not fulfilling this three-fold mission. My heart's desire and prayers have long been to be the pastor of a church keyed to this broader ministry. "The chief business of the church and Individual Christian, however, is as suredly soul-winning. Our blessed Lord taught this truth (John 17:1, Luke 19:10). It shall be my consuming . passion to lead each of you to be a soul-winner, and this church to be a mightier life-saving station. In my former pastorates I have attempted to key my evening services to soul-winning. I believe in a constant revival. "The efficiency of the church de Sends upon the training, consecration and loyalty of the individuals compos ing its membership. It shall be my endeavor to aid In training all our people (especially our youag people) for service, and to inspire to complete consecration of time, talent and money to the will of God. i "In assuming this responsible posi tion today, to which your confidence and, I believe, the spirit of God, have called me, I am intensely conscious of the vast meaning to us all. Old Ties Broken by Family. "My family and I have left all our ties of nature and years to come to you; you have placed your all with lis in bringing us. I can but feel that God Is in it. I come to offer you my best for the future. I shall endeavor to be all to each of you that a pastor Should be. I may not reach the ideals of all; few men do. I came to be your leader, not dictator. But I shall ex pect that the same confidence that trusted me so much in the call will RUN-DOWN WOMEN We Have a Remedy That Will ' Cost You Nothing If It Doea Not Help You. Portland women will please realize that we mean just what we say in the above heading. Letters like the fol lowing prove the efficiency of Vinol in such cases: "For the benefit of the other tired women, I want to say that I keep house for seven in my family. I became run down, all played out, I did not seem to have any life In me and looked badly. I read so much about Vinol I decided to try it and I must say it helped me in every way.

The scores of expressions received by letter and telegram -Inspire me with this confi dence. "I shall welcome suggestions from all but dictation from none. I take my orders from heaven." In his sermon Dr. Waller urged bis people to fight the good fight and to win. He said, "Every great hero Is a martyr. To do well you will have to sacrifice and suffer, but it is worth while. If we are going to succeed we must do the hard things. We can not win unlesB we lay aside our weight of unbelief and get away from our beset ting la." New Member Welcomed. A large number of new members. In cluding the pastor and his family and several of their friends from the South, were welcomed Into the church before the communion service. Dr. K. A. Woods, a veteran preacher, pronounced the consecration prayer which was elo quent with faith and inspiration. Deacon Lewis presided at the ceremony In which the pastor was given the hand of fellowship and the welcome of the official board and the church. In the evening Dr. Waller spoke on "The Lepers of the City." Plana are made for a large prayer meeting on Thursday night, when the church will meet 'Dr. Waller and family. MEN TO WEAR CORSETS K. S.

PEACE MEETING IS HELD Addresses Made Mostly in Norwe gian language. A peace meeting directed by Social lsts was held yesterday at the Public Library, under the name of the "Scan dinavian," and voiced short speeches extolling the blessings of peace. Most of the talk was in Norwegian. The chairman was Charles Soderback, and about 160 persons were present. The impression prevailed that all war Is wrong, and that the Ideal to strive for Is an international co-operative com monwealth of love. "I don't want to fight because I havi nothing to fight for,' asserted one speaker, who spoke In Engllsh"I don't own a home; I pay rent for a house; I have a Job but may lose that tomorrow and then I won't have anything.

BRIEF INTRODUCTION MADE "I Know That Some of the So-called Biggest People of This World Are Really the Smallest," Large Audience Is Told. Dr. W. B. Hlnson. ex-pastor of the White Temple Baptist Church, officiated for the first time yesterday as pastor of the East Side Baptist Church at East Twentleth'and Ankeny streets. A large congregation attended and heard his sermon. "You all know who I am and what kind of a preacher I am," he observed by way of dispensing with any formal Inaugural remarks, "so I needn't waste any time In Introducing myself to you. I am happy, therefore, to devote all my talk to my Maker. Dr. Hlnson dwelt on the Biblical ao count of the Apostles who went Into an ('upper room" of the temple that they might receive the visitation of the holy ghost. "How many of us," he asked, "go often enough Into the upper room? How many of us went Into the upper room this morning?" He urged that followers of the Chris tian faith must give united effort to the work of Christ that they must go with greater frequency into the figura tive "upper room" of their own lives. Through his discourse he touched hopefully and optimistically on the work that lies before him as pastor of the East Side church. "This is to be a church 'of the people, for the people and by the people,' " he asserted with emphasis. "We are 'not going to ask how much you have or what Is your station In life. This is to be the people's church. As such all will be welcome. "Why, some of the poorest people I know live in the biggest houses," he continued, "and some of the biggest people I know live In the smallest houses. "And I know that some of the so called biggest people of this world are really the smallest. "It's not hard to learn how big a man Is by letting him talk a while. Most people give a true Insight Into their value when they have talked for 10 minutes." In his appeal for united action toward perfecting a loyal Christian organiza tion he related the respective experi ences of Achad and Abraham. The Lord permitted his people to suffer de feat because of the transgressions of Achad; while he visited blessings upon them by reason of the virtue of Abra ham. "Here we have proof." he declared, "that the Lord Is concerned over the welfare of the least or the most humble among us. "So the works of every Individual member of the church is the concern Of all of us. We have a common bond of union a common sympathy In our belief In Jesus Christ. "Even the soldiers fighting In oppo site trenches in Europe Germans and British, Austrians and French are bound by their common faith in the same Christ," Dr. Hlnson again conducted services before a large congregation last night. His church is in a populous neighbor hood. , Many people attended yester day's services regardless of their per sonal religious affiliations. Mount Hood Pictured by Dots. HOOD RIVER, Or.. March 4.

RELIGION DECLARED ALIVE "Our Manner of Presenting Gospel In Life Slakes It Appear as Sack cloth and Ashes and World Re coils From Ghost," Theory. "The world !s waiting for a religion of Joy. We have enough of sorrow as It Is." declared Rev. JS. Olin Eldridge In his sermon yesterday morning . at the Mount Tabor Methodist Episcopal Church, on "Adorning the Doctrine of God. Our Saviour. In All Things." That the demeanor of the average "Christian" was such that It led the worldling to think that the Chris tian's ''manna was more a medicine than angel's food, and that the water ef life was the "water of Marah." was said by Rev. Mr. Eldridge to be re sponsible for the failure of many pos sible conversions. 'It will not do merely to talk holi ness and heaven; it must manifest Itr self In our lives, for religion is not skeleton, but a living cramture. The goBpel in glad tiding, a message of divine love, and yet our manner of presenting it in our lives makes it appear as sackcloth and ashes, and the world recoils from a ghost, always. "Our duty and privilege is to make religion lovely to weave Into the heavenly gems the flowers- of earthly beauty. We are to live In such a man ner that our dispositions will not be that of the gloomy, fanatio Pharisee, but rather that of a kfnd and gentle and lovely and joyous nature. The world has enough of sorrow. It awaits a religion of joy. VV e are pot merely to be resigned. hopeful and peaceful that Is little. We are to be exultant, triumphant, and to carry the swing of victory. This is our Christian task to make the gospel of our Savior attractive and alluring. What angels can da we can. They were called to serve we to glorify God. From our breaking hearts, crushed hopes and torn affections rises to God his richest Incense praise. We must have the fragrant spirit from fellowship with Jesus. Mere forms and cold obedience will not answer." SELF-REPRESSION ADVOCATED Human Character Must Be Ready to Get Most In Life, Says Pastor. Self -repression. - This was the keynote of the sermon delivered yesterday by Rev. Edward E. Pence In the Westminster Presby terian Church. "The human personality and charac ter must be prepared to get the most out of life and to put the most lntq it, urged the Rev. Mr. Pence. "What about the. educators of today who ask that the child be allowed to exercise Its own free and winsome dis position?

"There was the lad who was born in Kentucky in 1809, without any of the commonest advantages but whose soul cried out for greater things.

VALUE OF SOTJL IS DISCUSSED Rev. C. C. Rarlck Explains Possi bility for Growth and Happiness. "What is the value of an immortal soul?" asked Rev. C. C. Rarlck of his congregation at Central Methodist Epis copal Church yesterday morning. "You and I do not know," he said, "but Jesus knew and showed us by the fight he put up for it and the price he paid. "The soul Is measured, then, by its exquisite organization, its capacity for happiness, by its possibility for growth, its inexhaustible energies and by the value that Jesus put on it." Bones that break are quickly re paired, and the inflamed eye can And relief, explained Rev.

Time does not exhaust it. Can we not, then, see by all these things and by the great home that God has deemed the soul worthy enough to occupy in the future, by the sufferings of our Lord, the immeasurable value of the immortal soul?
