More impressive than any Easter
observance In the past decade and dif
ferent in the solemnity of its empha
sis, was the observance in the churches
of Portland yesterday, in which the
emotion of patriotism ran deep and
strong beside the emotion of religious
exaltation.
It was as though men and women
were holding solemn celebration of the
.revival of the spirit of intensest patri
otism while they were observing the
ancient religious ceremonial in cele
bration of the resurrection of th.e Sav
ior. The light vein that has ran through.)
certain phases of Easter Sundays in
times before the emphasis on bril
liant now Spring costumes and hats,
and the gorgeous traditional "Easter
parade" after churchdropped Into
Insignificance.
Perhaps It was the feeling of the
seriousness of the times that silenced
the lighter tendencies and turned con
gregations more strongly toward the
devotional attitude; perhaps it was the
uncompromising appearance of the
sky that predicted calamity for Easter
finery that might dare to come out.
One could not help feeling, mingling
with the crowd, however, that It was
more the former influence than the
latter.
Nation's Colors Predominate.
There was not the cool, white and
green of Easter lilies alone In the
decorations of the churches. Inter
mingling with these symbols of the
religious element In the day's ob
servances were the colors of the Amer
ican flag; the colors that used to be
recited In the schools "red is for
bravery, blue is for loyalty and white
is for purity."
Scarcely a minister In his Easter
eermon failed to devote some portion
of his exhortations to the call of pa
triotism and the revival of the Ameri
can spirit which calls for service for the
liberation of -umanity and the prin
ciples of humanity.
There was something else besides
the decorations, besides the deeper se
riousness of the congregations, besides
the stirring patriotic utterances of the
ministens. that characterized the East
er Sunday of "patriotic resurrection."
Sprinkled among the people in the
congregations in many of the churches
could be seen young men in the khaki
color of the service, young men with
the new set of seriousness and renun
ciation about their faces that one sees
in the pictures of the old crusaders.
All Churches Filled.
In one of the churches, as the con
gregation rose to sing the Easter an
them, there was a turning of heads
at the thud of steel on wood the re
volver In the holster of a young re
cruit striking against the pew as he
rose to sing.
Practically every church In the city
was packed to the doors with the
throngs of worshippers participating
in the ceremonies and the parade from
the church doore moved for more than
an hour in a solid stream in the main
part of the city after the dismissal.
But there was strangely a lack of
the color of new hats and costumes
that used to be seen on other Easters,
and there was a new element of color
added the red, yellow and blue hat
cords of the recruits In different
branches of the eervice, the light, yel
lowish fabric of their uniforms, and
the dashes of color from flags and pa
triotic Insignia upon the lapels of the
people In the moving mass.
WESTMINSTER FLOWER-FILLED
Eev. Edward II. Pence Takes Im
mortality for Topic.
Westminster Presbyterian Cnurch was
typical ot the Easter spirit. The space
around the pulpit and in front of the
choir was almost covered with nodding
palms and fragrant Easter lilies, while
the quiet glow was helped by six can
dlesticks, in each of which were five
lighted candles. The church was
crowded to overflowing" with an atten
tive congregation.
Rev. Edward H. Pence, D. D., the
pastor, preached a sermon on "immor
tality," taking his text from the words:
"If a man die, shall he live again?" He
made a close study of probabilities that
death does not end all. Instead of
preaching a plain gospel-sermon affirm
ing the fact.
"Accept immortality on your faith,"
said Dr. Pence. "Voltaire once said to
a. woman: I do not know that I am
Immortal. Tou may not know that
you are immortal,' replied the woman
"But I know that I am.' Not to believe
In immortality Is to dry up the springs
of moral character. Your child takes
your love on trust. Tou don't have to
demonstrate It. It is probably true, for
Instance, that certain things will come
to pass. It is almost absolutely certain
that the sun will rise tomorrow, but
it may not rise upon you. The proba
bility Is that when we die as die we
must we will live again.
"It has been said that thought is
reflected from the brain, and when the
brain stops, thought stops also. The
brain is rather a loom on which the
master hand weaves a pattern by
means of a shuttle sent back and forth,
until, say. a Shakespeare Is evolved.
You may say that William Shakespeare
Is dead, but does not Shakespeare live
today, in a higher sense? I saw an old
tree recently that had fallen down near
a brook, and out of the old tree's roots
a new tree had begun to grow. You
cannot say that your life will be snuffed
out in'o the nothingness from which it
came.
"Everything that is within me has
been made by my God, and if I deny
immortality I deny my intelligence.
Yes, out of the hands of God I come,
and back to the hands of my Father
I go.".
PASTOR CONDEMNS DISLOYALTY
Departure of Traitors Is Invited by
Rev. W. B. Hinson,
"I challenge no man's right to think
for himself, but I do challenge any
man's right to be traitor to the United
States at this time. There are several
trains out of this United States which
are availiable to persons who cannot be
loyal." So spoke Rev. W. B. Hinson,
pastor of the East Side Baptist Church,
at special Easter services yesterday.
"Gofl knows we deplore war," said
he, "but war has been declared and we
have entered upon a fight for humanity.
God give America the Christ faith. I
cannot go to war; my country does
not want me. But if I feel I am needed
my country cannot keep me back."

GROUPS
BAP GIVEN DISLOYAL
Desire to Display Finery in
Church Also Criticised.
END OF LUST SEEN IN WAR
Greedy, Grasping Type of Human
ity, Causing Conflict, "Will Be
Crushed Out by Indifference to
God, Says Rev. Morrison.
Those folks who go to church only
at Easter time and then merely to
see the Decorations or hear the music
or, mayhap, display their new Spring
finery received a sharp rebuke from
Rev. A. A. Morrison, rector of the fash
ionable Trinity Episcopal Church yes
terday morning.
The minister combined his caustic
criticism of derelict church-goers with
a few burning words to those who ap
pear to be short on patriotism during
these troublous times.
"I sincerely loathe the man who
hasn't the stuff in him to be aroused by
the present needs of the country who
is not patriotic. -
"And I have the same kind of con
tempt for the man who dodges Into
church once in a great while to see
the flowers, or to make a feeble pre
tense of keeping up his relations with
the church.
"It is the merest mockery. Tou can't
expect to keep your faith with God
by that kind of neglect of your plain
duty."
Dr. Morrison's sermon was punctuated
with frequent references to the pres
ent International "situation.
Thepresent world war, he declared,
is due to the "moral degradation" of
the world and to Its failure to practice
the precepts of the Christian religion.
"It is due to selfishness," he con
tinued, "to lust to lust in the indi
vidual and to lust In the state. It is
this selfish Instinct in the human race
that makes this world war possible.
"The world Is cursed by Its lust, its
pride. Its Indifference to the pleadings
of Almighty God."
He likened the present situation to
the developments In the ancient temple
wherein the young Saviour found the
traders and merchants bartering their
goods and chattels. As Jesus Christ
at that time poured forth his wrath
upon the blasphemous crowd, so the
Lord today has stricken the world, he
said, for Its sins and Its transgres
sions. "If they choose to turn away from
Christ such a situation Is Inevitable,"
he declared.
"The greedy, grasping type of hu
manity is sure to kill Itself and it Is
bound to be crushed out in this war."
The attendance at the morning serv
ice was unusually large and the music
was exceptionally fine.
SPIRITUALITY GREATEST NEED
Dr. J. II. Boyd Says Inward Illumi
nation Brightens Life.
The need of a sense of spirituality
in life for a man or woman to de
velop into their highest possibilities
was emphasized by Dr. John H. Boyd
In his address "The World's Greatest
Hope," delivered at the First Presby
terian Church yesterday morning.
"We need an inward illumination to
brighten the commonplace, otherwise
life is a routine," he said. "We are
little and commonplace, and. unaided,
our. minds and personalities cannot
make an impression upon the world
which will endure."
Dr. Boyd declared that there was no
life so small or uneventful but that
there was a time when duty calls, when
the battle for manhood is to be fought,
when the call comes to lay oneself upon
the altar of sacrifice.
"Where shall be secured ' the vision,
the inspiration to nerve to the best
and strongest endeavors?" he asked.
"The heroism of the world has been
accomplished under the inspiration of
the inward vision . of spirituality."
Dr. Boyd referred to Oliver Cromwell
and declared that Anglo-Saxon liberty
owes more to him than to any other
man.
"On the eve of the battle of Marston
Moor Cromwell could not be found,"
he said. "His officers sought for him
and finally discovered him In prayer.
It was this same spirituality, this abil
ity to see the vision which nerved him
to do what he did for the race."
Charles Klngsley, reformer and au
thor, the Earl of Shaftsbury, philan
thropist, and other great men of his
tory were referred to by Dr. Boyd as
having been sustained by this same in
ward vision.
Dr. Boyd referred to what he de
clared, to be the tendency of the age
to get away from the spiritual life.
Easter music was furnished by the
church choir. Among the numbers
were: "Welcome, Happy Morning," by

Boyd related Van Dyke's story of the
Little Lump of Clay" preceding
sermon.
the
DAY CALLED SUPERNATURAL
Easter Expresses Hope of Resurrec
tion, Says Rev. E. O. Eldrldge.
"Easter is the day of the supernatu
ral," said Rev. E. Olin Eldrldge, pastor
of Mount Tabor Methodist Episcopal
Church, in his sermon yesterday morn
ing to a large Easter congregation.
He spoke of the hope of the resurrec
tion and of the beauty of -Easter
thoughts.
"It is today that the heavenly and
divine seem to be nearer to us than
at other seasons, for Easter is the an
niversary of Christians' vitality," he
said.
"Look out of your window this
Spring and you behold the miracle of
life. All nature Is vibrant with re
newed vitality. Nature's graves are
gardens from which its dead come
forth, clothed In beauty and life.
"To be effective Easter must first
be a personal experience in our lives
as well as a believed fact. Our church
life must be expressive of a living
Christ. Its organized and social life
must give forth from the buds of
Easter Truth.
"Other things" have diminished with
the ages; Jesus Christ is more firmly
enthroned in the sanctuary of the
world's thought and affection than
ever before, for a new race with new
capabilities and possibilities came into
being when Jesus arose from the dead.
"Christianity is deathless because
Christ is its author. It is no wonder
then that people clothe themselves in
gayest attire, since the shining angels
set the fashion. On this glad day we
have the assurance in Christ of eternal
iife for the body, soul and spirit. He
conquered sin and death for all man
kind. Our loved ones who have died
are not dead but alive painless, death
less and happy. Let us then await
calmly the time when the angels shall
draw the curtains and let us see be
yond." PATRIOTIC SERMON PREACHED
Father Hogan Tells Parishioners
to Heed Their Country's Call.
Easter services at St. Francis Roman
Catholic Church were highly patriotic
and Father W. R. Hogan, who preached
from the text, "He Is Risen," ended
his sermon with a peroration on "De
votion to Country." Solemn high mass
was celebrated at 10:30 o'clock, with
Rev. Father J. H. Black as celebrant.
Father Hogan acted as deacon of the
mass and Father John T. Costello was
sub-deacon. '
The church and altar were elabo
rately decked with lilies and other
flowers and was crowded to the doors.
More than 600 took holy communion.
"After what a man owes to God," said
Rev. Father Hogan. "nothing is more
sacred than the love of country. In
this hour let our object be our country.
When our country calls she claims the
best that is in us and it Is our proud
privilege to grant it. 'Had I a dozen
sons each in my love alike I had
rather have 11 die nobly for their
country than one voluptuously surfeit
out of action,' said the great master
of human thought, Shakespeare. Next
to the love and obedience to God the
noblest motive In man is his country's
honor and safety. It claims every vir
tue possessed by man and no Catholic
loyal to the church can be other than
loyal to his country and ready to do
and die for her without a moment's
hesitation.
" 'In this great emergency," says Car
dinal Gibbons, 'It behooves every Amer
ican to do his duty and the primary
duty of a citizen is loyalty to country.
Loyalty Is manifested by acts, not
words; by solemn service, rather than
empty declamation. It is exhibited by
absolute obedience by the citizen to
his country's call'."
RESURRECTION PROOF THEME
Human Life Level Declared Raised
by Scriptural Teaching.
"The greatest proof of the resurrec
tion of Jesus is not in the testimony of
the women who came to the sepulchre
nor the apostles to whom he appeared,
but is in the fact that wherever it has
been preached it has raised the level
of human life." said the Rev. Joshua
Stansfield, In his Easter sermon at the
First Methodist Church yesterday.
"How could a falsehood ennoble and
sanctify life as the doctrine of the
resurrection has done? The intellect
may not be convinced, but the In
tellect is satisfied with only a small
part of life and the conviction of the
truth comes to one through a deeper
and greater channel."
The church was decorated - with
Easter lilies for the service and the
American flag was prominently dis
played. In the special Easter musical pro
gramme, the choir presented the chorus.
"God Has Appointed a Day," and the
quartet sang, "Awake. Glad Soul,
Awake I".

ARCHBISHOP IS CELEBRANT
Cathedral Is Scene of Unusual
Splendor Father O'Hara Ex
horts People to Fortify Them
selves With Loyalty.
Real fervor and enthusiasm with a
mingled patriotism marked the Easter
morning services at the Catholic
churches of Portland, and the largest
congregations that ever attended mass
at St. Mary's Cathedral and St. Francis'
Church were those that attended the
11 o'clock solemn high mass. More
than 1000 persons took holy com
munion at the cathedral and more than
600 at St. Francis, while the Easter
masses at 6, 7:15, 8:30 and 9:45 filled
the churches.
There was the usual splendor of pon
tlflclal high mass' at the cathedral, the
radiance of smart Easter attire and
bonnets Just lifted from their shop
boxes, but over it all was a religious
feeling that held even the hundreds
compelled to stand for lack of seat
room in close attention throughout the
mass.
Archbishop Is Celebrant.
Archbishop Alexander Christie was
celebrant at the cathedral high mass,
and the sermon was delivered by Rev.
Father E. V. O'Hara, assistant priest.
The church was decked in Easter lilies
and ferns, which, with the gleaming
white altars and the statues, unveiled
after 40 days of seclusion under their
purple Lenten wrappings, made a
striking background for the rich gold
and white vestments worn by Arch
bishop Christie and the priests. Im
pressive, too, was the march to the
cathedral residence after the mass,
headed bv the 24 sanctuary boys and
deacons and sub-deacons, followed by
the archbishop in his great purple and
ermine robe. The music of the mass
was especially selected.
"Eternal peace shall come not by
vast armaments but by the adoption of
Christianity as the rule of the individ
ual." said Father O'Hara In his ser
mon. "We hear much about the won
ders of invention: that no age has been
greater in art, in learning, in science
and In war, but to the modern pagan,
who styles himself a thinker, the hero
Ism of humility, the wonder of chastity
and the grandeur of a simple faith are
unknown. These are the gifts of the
soul, and to them many are blind.
Soul Outweighs Jewels.
"But. true though it is that the
human soul cannot be weighed In the
scales of science. It far outvalues the
greatest jewels and gifts of the world.
Take away the glory of the resurrec
tion and you plunge the foundations of
good and morality into inevitable ruin.
Unbelievers In Christianity would In
deed wonder could they but see the
hundreds who have come to the house
of God on this morning of the resur
rection of Christ. Our hearts burn
within us at the blessings He has
given."
Rev. Father O'Hara touched on pa
triotism in his sermon, exhorting the
people to believe in their own land and
government and fortify themselves
with loyalty. Archbishop Christie and
Father O'Hara were assisted by five
other priests at the mass. Rev. Father
F. W. Cunningham was deacon; Rev.
Father William Cronln, sub-deacon;
Father Arthur D"e Lorlmer, master of
ceremonies; Father Charles Smith, dea

CHURCH GAINS 45 MEMBERS
Stirring Patriotic Address Delivered
by Rev. R. E. Smith.
Forty-five persons were received into
the membership of the Sunnyslde
Methodist Episcopal Church yesterday
morning at the Easter service, and 15
more were baptized. Rev R. E. Smith,
pastor of the church, officiated at the
services and also preached the sermon
and a brief patriotic address preceding
the service proper on "Loyalty."
"We are living in one of the most
tragic of times. The Nation is in
peril," he said. "I realize that before
the last crisis persons of the congrega
tion may have had conviction concern
ing certain phases of the situation, but
I think, my brethren, that the time has
come to abandon all these and harbor
nothing bi t pro-American ideals.
"I think there is not one person in
this congregation who is not absolutely
loyal. Let us get behind the President
an' the Government and help "our bit.'"

GIRLS MAKE READY
Honor Guard Soon to Have
New Military Uniforms.
HEADQUARTERS IS MOVED
Miss Imclle Dan forth Orders Reg
istration Closed April 15 so Real
Work of Service to Na
tion Can Be Started.
The girls of the Girls Honor Guard
are to be real military in some spick
and span new uniforms shortly. Arm
bands of red, white and blue are to be
worn as their badge of service.
Bids for the uniforms are now being
submitted, and It is Intended to have
them available in the shortest possible
time.
The uniforms will be in two styles,
a single white, one-piece dress for the
work of the first and second corps, and
a coat suit, of olive drab if possible, for
utility work. "Each girl will pay for
her own suit unless the local guard
should raise sufficient funds to defray
this expense.
The Portland headquarters of the
Honor Guard have been moved from
the state office to 312 Selling build
ing. Business pertaining to the Honor
Guard in Portland will be handled in
the new office.
IHIsa Danforth Has State Office.
The state office at 901 Electric build
ing will be occupied by Miss Luclle
Danforth. state manager; Miss Edna
Mtnslnger, state secretary and treas
urer, and Miss Esther Zimmerman, as
sistant state manager, who will tran
sact the work of organizing and direct
ing the Honor Guard work throughout
the -state. The office will be open
for visitors from 11 A. M. to 6 P. M. on
Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sat
urday. Plans for closing the membership
lists of the various Honor Guard or
ganizations in the state on April 15
in order that active service for the
country may be taken up are contained
In a letter sent out to leaders by Miss
Luclle Danforth. state manager. Some
of the requirements of lrls who join
the Honor Guard are also outlined.
The letter in part follows:
Active Service Now Required.
"The time for organizing has passed
and now we may be called upon at
any moment to give some actual serv
ice for our country. For this reason I
am asking you to close your member
ship lists by the 15th of April and to
send a full report of your members.
"Again, I wish to take up the matter
of service as required by the Girls'
National Honor Guard. No girl is re
quired to leave home. Every girl is
required to learn to do "one thing well"
and to give her services In that "one
thing" when she Is called upon or when
the necessity arises. Impress upon the
girls that this Is a guard for service,
not for self Improvement or any petty
reason. Try to make the girls realize
that this la not a social club, a fad
if you will, but rather an organization
dedicated to upholding our National

honor, which means not only to talk
patriotism, but to act it by offering our
services to our country In Its need.
"Very shortly you will receive bolts
of red, white and blue ribbon, from
which you are asked to cut arm bands
about 16 inches long, or sufficient to
be pinned around the coat sleeve. These
are our badges of "service" and are
only to be worn when working in the
name of the Honor Guard or represent
ing it at some gathering, etc. The
bands should be worn on the left sleeve
with the blue stripe uppermost. Be
sure that these bands are not worn
promiscuously and that no girl who
Is not a registered member receives
one. If actual hostilities occur In this
section of the country, they will con
stitute our admission In the ranks and
you can readily see that they must not
be allowed In the hands of one liable
to take advantage of such, for pur
poses detrimental to our Government-"
Experiments by a British expert In
re-foresting some of the hills of China
have led to the establishment of a com
prehensive course in forestry in a uni

Expectant Mothers
Relieved of Pain
Women Use Prescription ef Fam
ous Physician.
Since the days of our first parents
in the Garden of Eden, women have
borne the pain and discomfort of
childbirth. Science on its part, has
vrorked to modify and to relieve in
part, the dreadful suffering at such
a time.
The preparation known as "Mother's
Friend" is applied by the mother-to-be
herself, externally, night and
morning. It relieves the tension on
the muscles, cords and ligaments of
the abdomen, and the expectant
mother is made much more comfort
able. The crisis is one of much less
pain and danger.
Thousands of women who have used
it successfully state that they cannot
say enough about the good "Mother's
Friend" did for them and refer par
ticularly to the absence of nausea or
morning sickness.
