cese the great spiritual movement
now before the church in America,
received a telegram yesterday from
William H. Taft, former president of
TTr,itri states, eiving a hearty
indorsement of the nation-wide cam
aitm which comes to a climax
Oregon next Sunday with an every
member canvass.
Mr. Taft's message said:
"I am very glad to hear of the
nation-wide campaign and the every
member canvass.
It Js, as 1 understand it, an or
ganized effort of the Episcopal
church in this country to enlarge its
influence and usefulness, and gather
into dynamic form the spirit and les
sons inculcated by the late war.
In that war we faced God. We
approached the judgment seat. We
rame to realize that nothing was good
but service; the pomp, the vanity, the
comforts and ambitions of material
lite lost their glitter and became
the dross they are. in comparison
with virtue and the Christian spirit
and the character that these develop.
Reaction Held Natural.
"The reaction of the war to ma
terial things has been natural, but
discouraging to the hopes of many
more which were raised by the many
evidences individuals gave of being
roused to a love of mankind, a sense
of responsibility to society for one s
brother, and a quickening of re
ligious spirit.
The reaction has been natural,
but he would be a pessimist indeed
who concluded that the lessons of the
war and the spirit engendered by
it did not furnish an opportunity for
the church, and a foundation upon
which to build.
fc'T- that reason. I welcome in
every church the effort to extend its
influence to bring witnin its uisnm
nation the indifferent and the inert
laitv and all associated with the
ami to stir them to a consciousness
f tho e-nnrl thev can do. and there
,! tii a-ood thev ought to do. I
wish for the campaign every sue
cess."
Hen Viewpoint Given.
"My view of the nation-wide cam
u,,n in the Oreeon diocese," said
Mr. Etheridge, "is it gives us an en
tiielv new viewpoint.
"My experience in liberty loans was
that by the loans Oregon got a new
state consciousness. We ceased to
think as cities and counties, but
leached out for a bigger and higher
view, and learned to think from
state basis and from a national view
point.
"Now I am hopeful that the nation
wide campaign in Oregon will give
us members of the church a bigger
and broader vision: will enable us
to see and think and act not only
as a parochial church, but as a dio
cesan church and as a national
church.
Duty Is Sn
"Now I want to urge every chair
man, every team captain, to remember
that he or she has just as important

S PI RITUALIST BELIEF RAPPED
vancelist Dickson Says Bible
Story Is Contradicted.
"Han's belief In the doctrine that
the soul of man does not die, but after
death has the power to communicate
with the living: is a most startling
contradiction of Bible revelation, ye
it is the natural conclusion which
must be drawn from the popular
teaching of the immortality of the
eoul."
In this language Evangelist L. K.
IMckson. in his lecture in Christen
sen's hall last nifrht on "Modern
Spiritism and the Bible" pointed ou

Bolt is palming off on humanity
through the aid of men and women
who have given their lives into hi
lunula, and who are now everywhere
taking advantage of men and women
in their bereavement and weakness
as they seek comfort in their dis
tress." Mr. IMckson gave a graphi
history of spiritualism, declaring that
it originated in the Garden of Eden
when Satan, through the first me
dium, the wily serpent, tempted Ev
to eat of the forbidden fruit, declar
lug to her that if she would disobe
God she would not die, but should
have her eyes opened and become as
God. The speaker said in part:
"The Bible teaches that there are
rood and evil spirits, and that both
orders of spirits are angels and have
definite connection with men in the
world. Therefore John admonishes us
to "try the spirits-. If men would do
eo they would find that they are not
tbelr dead friends, for the Scriptures
clearly teach In Eccl. 9:5 and Psa.
146:4 that 'the dead know not any
thing.' Satan has always manifested
his power of transformation, and in
Cor. 11:14,15 we are told that he
will continue to work in this decep

SHE "and her company" are Will
Morrissey and a group of special

should read Will Morrisey in the
Overseas Revue with' Elizabeth Brice
instead of the other way around, for
Will Morrissey's fun and foolery and
ngaging manner fairly permeated the
whole big entity.
Will is a big buck private with his

private. He sings one happy promise
"You'll Never Get a Whimper Out Of
Me," the words of which he wrote
to the end that there's so much good
in the worst of America and so much
bad in the best of France that he'll
never complain again
The show takes place in a hut, any
of the many where Miss Brice and
Mr. Morrissey entertained in the Ar
gonne woods and the entertainment is
part of the original performance as
presented when this well known team
was a big patent part of the first
shock unit to go across to cheer the
boys.
Miss Brice is a charming, graceful
girl and her offerings flavor of the
artistic. She has one specialty.
'Carolina and Dance de Luxe," which
is notably original. As a vivid vampire
of the streets of Paris she charms
sailor lad until she asks him of his
girl back home. Then he sings of a
maid in Carolina, who is waiting.
With easy good -nature he saunters
through a dance with her and when
her own Apache swain takes her
away, the sailor lad recaptures her
and whirls her through a jazz jig
and then leaves her. Miss Brice's "Sal
vation Sal" in the lassie uniform is an
attractive number, too, with a pic
turesque chorus of bonneted and
caped Joan of Arcs adding lustre
A half dozen others have exhilarat
ng specialties in dance or song and
smart interesting characters, all quite
as real as if they were the French
girls, villagers, aviators, second lieu
tenants, gendarmes and soldiers they
represent, fill up the picture delightfully.
Al and Fanny Stedman have the
cleverest idea of an exit and if it
isn't copyrighted some one will come
along in a week or co aping Al. He
flutters in, in response to the clam
orous handclapping and immediately
when he poises in midair to execute
an esthetic obeisance, the stage goes
dark. Again and again ad yet again
the shrieking audience recalled Al,
only to see him swallowed in darkness
in the middle of a lovely pose. Then
the lights flared up and Al was seen
to pick himself sadly and deject3dly
out of the footlights. It isn't funny
n cold type, but its funny when Al
does it. He plays the piano. Fanny
sings and steps And pokes fun at
Al and they have a lot of comedy in
terchange of gayety that has the ear
marks of being made up as it goes

Everybody liked Al and Fanny.

BY LEONE CASS BAER.
PECULIAR law of precedence
holds good in stock companies.
PASTOR'S FAITH IS
STEADFAST AS EVER
Any hut part of the original j wherein leading women always play
the leading role no matter how
youthful it may be. The same law
does not hold good in inverse form,,
for they do not always play the lead
ing role no matter how elderly is
the part.
Occasionally a downright clever
actress like Verna Felton, who puts
the role's value before' her personal
preference, comes along and will play
an old, old lady like Rosalie La
Grange in "The Thirteenth Chair," or
the mother In "Turn to the Right."
Then, for instance, she does the
youthful hoyden Sis Hopkins as well
as its creator ever did it. Now comes
Polyanna.
I'm not managing the Baker Stock
company, and they know more in a
minute about their business than I
do; but it seems as if for once that
the law of precedence could go hang
itself. Mayo Methot should have
been Pollyanna. She has the little
girl ways and the youth incarnate.
Instead Mayo is a boy, Jimmy Bean,
and a right likable, rough and ready
boyish chap she is rn the first of the
play, when Pollyanna thrusts him
or her into Miss Polly's home. When
five years later Mayo is still Jimmy
we sense disappointedly that she is
still a dear, feminine, graceful little
girl masquerading in trousers, and
Miss Felton in her blonde sophistica
tion has put years between herself
and the supposedly 17 they both repi
resent. Their love scene and taLk of
marriage is incongruous. Mayo as
Pollyanna would have preserved its
traditions: .
The play itself is almost actor
proof in so far as the lines go. Every
one is sad about something or other
until the daughter of a missionary
comes to live with her auntie. The
child is an optimist and preaches the
gospel of looking for a rainbow.
When the play ends everyone has
been regenerated through listening to
Pollyanna's philosophy and where
grouches and invalids reigned before
now abideth faith, hope and charity,
with much love.
Pollyanna is called the glad girl
and the book Catherine Chisholm
Cushing wrote about her is called the
glad book, and the play is called the
glad play. It is saccharinely sweet in
spots and Pollyanna is amazinglv
precocious for 12 years, with e-rown-
ups leaning on her every word, but it
is moral and clean and full of the
sentiments of law and order and
neaven knows we need ontimism
preached even if it does come coated
in sugar.
David Herblirt is John Pendleton
the grouch, who becomes Pollyanna's
uear King. rle invests the role with
all the attributes required of a hero
who has nursed a grief for 20 years
and suddenly finds his sorrow turned
to joy. His artistry is dignified
ana direct.
Lee Millar is excellent as Dr. Chil
ton, playing with forcefulness a most
likable role.
Claire Sinclair is admirable as Aunt
Polly, who takes Pollyanna into her
home against the promptings of her
own heart and then grows to love the
cniia.
jaiss Sinclair evinced the proper
repellant attitude and later the
change of heart, with skill and
suotiety
Geraidine Dare hides her lovely,
youthful body in a voluminous gown
oi the vintage of 1850, smears her
dusky hair till it is gray and puts
lnes of age on her pretty face. Then
sne peers through her specs and cre
ates a riot as Mrs. Gregg, the only
kind-hearted one of the trio of elderly
members of the ladies' aid who are
iittcftiiig a missionary Darrel the day
Pollyanna arrives. The other two
"ladies' aiders" are Barbara Haaland
and Ada Rose, who both stay nicely
in the type.
One of the ablest contributions and
a fine .piece of comedy are contributed
by Anna McNaughton as Nancy, a
devout Irish maid at Miss Polly's.
George R. Taylor as a valet at the
"King's," and Irving Keniedy step
ping in as a chauffeur to carry Polly
anna to her chair the eventful day
she is hurt, complete the cast.
It is a play that will draw well.
People are seeking crumbs of com
fort, hoping for happiness, .willing to
listen to sermons told attractively.
Pollyanna is all of that.

son began his duties as rector of Trin
ity Episcopal church, then located at
Sixth and Oak streets, and yesterday
morning the people of Trinity, in their
present church building. Nineteenth
and Everett streets, celebrated the
anniversary. A large congregation
was present, and among them were
old personal friends of Dr. Morrison
friends who belong to different reli
gious denominations, but all animated
by friendship and love for the rector
of Trinity.
Dr. Morrison took as the subject of
his sermon yesterday morning the
theme: "Love and Service," the text
being Matthew XX: 25-28.
"1 am happy to address you in this
sacred house consecrated many years
ago to the worship of God. our heav
enly father," said Dr. "Morrison. "The
conclusion of 20 years of service as
rect-or of this well known and hon
ored church in this community finds
no boastful thought in my mind "be

to personal efforts, as 1 stand at the

out. Were I to boast, it would be for
the loyal friends who have stead
fastly sustained me in what I am fret
to say is one of the most difficult
tasks allotted to mere man, the work
of a minister.
Rector Still Looks Ahead.
"Profoundly convinced of immor
tality, 'and of the ascent of man to a
higher destiny than that of our earth,
I confidently expect to continue to
enjoy the friendships made during
these 20 years.
"The Christian ministry, as its des
ignation implies, is service of the
people in all that involves the preach
ing of the gospel of life and its prac
tical application as taught by Jesus
Christ. . It is a world-wide mission of
men, most of whom are quite as sin
cere as those who undertake other
works of reformation. It has as its
purpose the reconstruction of the
whole fabric of human society, found
ed upon ideal justice, peace and good
will, righteousness of life, which will
exalt, the human family to a com
mendable, beautiful and efficient
standard which we hold to be desir
able and possible."
Here Dr. Morrison paid loving trib
ute to the memories of the late Rev.
William Richmond and Bishops Mor
ris and Scadding. . ,
Outlook Clearly Hopeful.
"These 20 years," concluded the
preacher, "have led to a height from
wherce I can clearly see the golden
glow of a setting sun that lures me
on, without thought of misgiving. The
pace seems to quicken. When the
shadows deepen and the somber man
tie enfolds the day, I shall lie down

MOTIVES FOR GOOD ANALYZED
Highest Held That Which Delights
In Will of Good.
Why are men good? Some are
good because they are afraid to be
bad. The fear of punishment that
follows wrongdoing deters them.
The shame, disgrace and other un
pleasant and painful consequences of
evildoing restrain them." So said
Dr. W. T. McElveen in his sermon on
"Motives" yesterday morning at the
First Congregational church.
Some are good because they do not
wish to go to hell after they die," de
clared Dr. McElveen. "The old-time
preacher appealed to this motive. He
thundered about the 'terrors of the
Lord," and urged people to 'flee from
the wrath to come. He talked as if
good behavior here was insurance
against future punishment, and a
guarantee against future risk. Now
fear is a low, but a legitimate mo
tive.
"Other men are good because it
pays. They are moral utilitarians.
They try to be and do good because
such effort returns dividends. But
doing good because of -the reward it
may bring may be only self-interest
parading under the cloak of religion.
It may be selfishness in disguise. The
proverb, 'Honesty is the best policy,'
states the truth that the path of duty
usually is the path to prosperity. But
no man is really honest who is honest
simply because it is the best policy
You recall how Satan inquired if Job
served God for naught, and Satan
intimated that if Job served God for
bribe, perhaps he could be led to
serve the devil for a larger bribe."
"There are still other men," said
the preacher, "who try to be good be- I
cause they leel in their, souls that
they ought always to be and do their I
very best. Their minds and spirits I
are held in the splendid grip of this
moral imperative.
"Now, this attitude toward good
ness is splendid. It is very different
from being good because we are
afraid to be bad, or being good for
reward here and hereafter. Yet It is
too stoical and arbitrary to be alto
gether Christian. It regards God
more as a stern lawgiver than as a
loving, living heavenly father.
"But there are others that are good
because they love goodness. They are
good because they thoroughly enjoy
it. They just love to be and do good.
They are enamored of goodness. They
dellght to do the will of God.
