"What was the basis of Samson's
strength? Abstinence, purity, self-control,
separateness. Samson broke his
sacred vows not less than seven times,
and thus gradually but surely lost his
strength, though he was all uncon
scious of the fact. Note further the
temptations of his life were all through
the healthy organs of the body sight,
taste, tongue. He saw a Philistine
woman he ate from the dead body of
a lion, aye, and a lion he had slain.

victories become the occasion of his

"VTilliam T. McEIveen. pastor of the
Manhattan Presbyterian church of New
York City, who occupied the pulpit of
the First Congregational church of
Portland yesterday morning, based his
eermon on patience and its various
meanings.
"The Perfecting Power of Patience"
was the title given to his sermon. He
announced his text as: "JLet patience
have its perfect work, that ye may be
perfect and entire, lacking in nothing."
James 1:4.
He said in part:
"Patience is a virtue that works; it
is a virtue that does a beneficent work;
aye, it is a virtue that does a perfect
ing work. It is the sculptor who puts
the finishing touches upon the statue
of our characters. Patience is not only
a grace; it is an energy. It is not only
an excellency; it is an efficiency. It is
creative ajid ennobling and beautify
ing; it supplies what is lacking in us;
it completes and consummates our be
ing. The perfection of our characters
is wrapped up in and depends upon our
being patient. If patience performs her
perfect work in us, we shall eventually
be 'perfect and entire, lacking in noth
ing. So says the scripture verse which is
guiding our thought. And so say a
number of other scripture verses. 'By
your patience ye shall gain your soul,
."-aid Jesus. Patience is the one virtue
possessed of which we gain in self
control and self-ownership. The Apostle
Paul, in the Koman Epistle, declares
that he glories in tribulation because
he knows that tribulation worketh pa
tience as if patience was very well
worth while striving for and possessing.
"Again" he says that it is 'by patient
continuance in well doing that we gain
glory and honor in this world, and im
mortality and eternal life in the world
to come. Patience, according to the
apostle to the Gentiles, is a pearl of
greatest price. He thinks it is a key
that is stout enough to throw back the
bolt that may bar the pearly gate of
heaven. He regards it as a. crowning
virtue.
Definitions of Patience.
"All knowledge, says someone, begins
with definition. "What is patience?
'Patience is sorrow's salve,' says
Churchill. 'Patience is lying to and
riding out the gale, says Henry Ward
Beecher. 'Still achieving, still pursuing,
learn to labor and to wait, sings Long
fellow. But patience is something more
than endurance. People often endure
impatiently. The sick man finds fault.
the bankrupt merchant frets, the be
reaved parents complain that provi
dence is unkind. They endure, but
there is no charm or calm in their en
durance. Patience is a virtue; endur
ance is a necessity. e may or may
not he patient; we must on certain oc
casions endure. So let us try again to
dfcfine patience. Patience is eelf-con-tro!
and t'orbearanre under the with
holding of things desired and the im
position of things not desired. It is re
maining quiet when our desires are im
petuous and when our pride clamors for
redress. It is abiding in sweet seren
ity of spirit when the spirit is torn and
o.ssed with anguish and disappointment.
"Suppose for the moment we accept
this definition of patience: Patience
the knack of getting along comfortably
wnn uncomfortable things and beings.
Patience A'ot Stolclnra.
"Patience is not dulling the edge of
discomfort by steeling our hearts
auahi.-rt it. It is not the will hardening
i;se! f into flint, or the sensibilities
deadening themselves by studied and
assumed apathy. Jf your neighbor's
v, ays are rasping there is a wav of
knotting your nerves and plaiting your
sensibilities over each other that will
enable you to view his exasperating
conduct with naughty indifterence. But
Kuch gritty, stoical self-adjustment is
not fragrant with the true aroma of
srospel patience. The old stoics are
Thought by some to have been men of
remarkable patience. But their so-
r;t!led patience was a benumbing of
their feelings against suffering, not
.-offering willingly and meekly. They i
s;ubhornly refused to say that they
suffered any pain. They made their
he.irts hearts of stone. By cold calcu
lating reason they blunted the fine edge
f their feelings. True patience means
nerves that have been despoiled of none
of their sensitiveness, but that,. are in
stinct with an energy of endurance that
enables them to pay without impover
ishment any tax that may be levied"
upon them. Patience makes us eerene,
not stoical.
"We may get a little further insight
Into this energetic virtue of patience
by considering its opposite. Impatience
is expensive; it is a sad drain upon our
vitality; it is like friction in a machine
which is the conversion into handicap
ping heat of what ought to go into
propelling force.
"Hut impatience is not only expen
sive; it is a confession and advertise-tm-nt
of mental and moral weakness.
It is .-hallow water that is easily stirred.
Breakers form where the water is not
deep. So there is a kind of exasper
ation which is only the indignation of
jniall, s u pt rfK'ial minds.

SELF- CENTER EDNESS DECRIED
made by the Herald of Asia (a Tokio
paper), transmitted by the correspond
ent of the- Associated Press, says:
Japan Is protecting: China chiefly for
her own eecurlty,' " were, characterized
as "so fictitious and contrary to fact
that they are certain to cause laughter
among those Americans who know
Japan's wanton tricks."
All China wants now, the state
ment said, "is to be freed from Japan's
propagandas, intrigue and aggres
sions. She needs absolutely no Japa
nese protection. The sooner Japan's
hands, which are so instrumental in
creating China's Internal discords, are i
kept off, the better it will be for the
development of democratic Institutions
in China an dthe future peace of the
world."
Rev. E. H. Pence of Westminster
Says 'Iiet Xot Go of Gospel."
"Take away the gospel and your
Christmas is gone; take away the gos
pel and your Easter is gone," said Rev.
K. H. Pence, pastor of the Westminster
Presbyterian church in his sermon yes
terday morning on "What Is the Gos
pel?" He continued:
"The gospel is the form in which the
truth is placed before us. The New
Testament is the truth. Read the 15th
chapter of First Corinthians and see
what Paul had to say. You know Cor
inth was the most desperately wicked
city of antiquity.
"Take Christianity, the gospel, from
your life and what have you left? The
Corinthians were self -centered, proud
and wicked. Paul's preaching was
meant to get them from that condition
of things. If you are self-centered; if
there is something gripping you,
wouldn't it be good news to you if you
felt a realization of that greater some
thing, better far than we know, seize
you in that restoration and forgiveness
which comes only with the grasping
of the truths of the gospel teachings,
which would bring you out of that
self-centerednees which is warping
many lives of today. '
"The Pharisees of yesterday we have
them today were self-centered, proud,
better-than-thou folk, who were
warned in the end of the proken Ufe
that would be theirs; that they would
lose all those things which they con
sidered worth while if they did not turn
to the teachings of the gospel and prac
tice them in their lives.
"The New Testament is the one price
less possession in the world. We may
lose Shakespeare and yet get along
fairly well. We knew all that Shake
speare wrote before he wrote it. It
was the form in which he wrote it that
was new. But we :annot let the gos
pel go. For in it are placed the truths
which make us free, the truths which
make life worth while, the truths which
get us away from that self-centered
spirit which kills many a good soul.
It is that gospel which we must ad
vance, for it is the gospel of progress."
BEAUTY OF WORLD IS THEME
Dr. Morrison, at Trinity Episcopal
Church, Tells of Today's Joys.
"We do not need to wait for eternity
to realize the beauty of this world.
Isn't tills world good enough and beau
tiful enough for you? In all my ex
perience, I have found very few people
who are willing to leave it for heaven.
We can experience heaven here." said
Lr. A. A. Morrison, rector of Trinity
Kpiscopal church, in his yesterday
morning sermon.
Dr. Morrison took as his text part
of the fourth chapter of Micah, in
which a declaration for world-peace is
made, using especially the third verse
which says: "They shall beat their
swords into plowshares, and their
spears into pruning hooks. Nation shall
not lift a sword against nation; neither
shall they learn war any more."
I shall not pretend to state that I
have agreed to the Almighty to present
an infallible interpretation," proceeded
Dr. Morrison. "In those olden days they
were ignorant oi an tilings, and re
ligion was no exception. It will be no
mark of heresy on my part if I tell
you that I do not believe God spoke
nto tne ears or every prophet and said
ieu tne neome mis ana mat i never
question the genius of my creator,
Wherever I go or look I glory this
genius. Yet people say to the pulpit:
ion t coddle tne laboring class. Be
practical trimmer.
"No matter - hat senator this-or-that
may say, I know that Almighty God
ha,z determined that this world shall
live in peace. It is impossible to be
lieve that God. who scatters his sun
shine around the world, is a patron of
sin in all Its vile forms. Jesus came
as God's ideal man, not to bewilder or
perplex us. He never stopped his love
for a second. I believe in working for
the new ideal of love. The world must
have peace. The only winning king in
all the world is the love of human kind
ness. The day will come when justice
will be as God meant it to be. The
home will be a contented family of
love."

JAPAN FEARS BOLSHEVISM
Strikes Are Increasing and Are
Liable to Jcad to Violence.
TOKIO. (Correspondence of the As
sociated Press.) The increasing ten
dency of the Japanese workers to as
sert their rights and to interest them
selves in socialism is causing leading
Japanese to study tle means of meet
ing this labor problem. It Is pointed
out that strikes are increasing and
that as Japanese labor has no organized
voire, the strikes are liable to lead to
dangerous violence, as in the case of
the rice riots last year.
The Herald of Asia says that there is
a considerable element affected by
socialist theories, but that owing to
th-e severe repression imposed by the
authorities there is no means f know
inc how far socialism has spread. The
journal adds: "That the bacteria exists
here, there is no doubt. It is kept
under so far, but it only smoulders.
ready to break out on occasion. If
socialism cannot legitimately rai;e its
head, then it will try to do so illicitly,
and the result is bolshevism and

conditions in line with the suggestions
of the icagueof nations, politieal and
educational reform, the elimination of
bureaucratic methods and a true res
toration of the Ideal of democracy.

GOVERNMENT AND MUNICIPAL BONDS
There is every reason why you should invest your money in Government and
Municipal Bonds. They are the "promise-to-pay" of nation, state, county, district or
city. Bonds are usually issued in order that needed development or improvement may
take place which, in turn, enhances the value of the resources and property pledged
to the payment of principal and interest.
The proof that Government and Municipal Bonds are the safest and most desirable
securities in the world, is that they are required by the United States Government to
secure postal savings and other Federal funds on deposit in the banks of the country
and by states to secure their funds on deposit.
In the critical hour when other securities fail. Government and Municipal Bonds
withstand the financial shocks which have made many men penniless, because their
money was invested in speculative securities.
Consult the following group of Bonds; consider the safety of the different issues,
the interest yield, and property pledged to their payment.
If you do not feel disposed to make your selection alone and want our assistance
we shall be more than pleased to recommend a particular issue best fitting: your
requirements and circumstances. '
