SERVICES WELL ATTENDED
"Liberty" Is Noonday Topic of
Rev. II. R. White.
Tre-Lentcn noon-day services by
the Brotherhood of St. Andrew in the
Baker theater are daily marked by
larger audiences. The speaker yes
terday was Kev. H. R. White of
Ttoseburg, formerly a chaplain in
France. Today this week's conclud
ing sermon will be delivered by Rev.
William E. Hamilton of Medford.
Meetings will be resumed on Monday.
Rev. Mr. White chose yesterday to
discuss "Liberty." He said:
"Our hearts thrill to the words of
the orator, or poet, or speaker, as
he brings our minds to bear upon the
privileges of liberty. Our children,
and our children's children will hate
the thought of slavery. We love in
stinctively the thought of liberty; but
Just exactly what do we mean by
freedom? - There is a need for a far
greater knowledge and understand
ing of what really constitutes liberty
than people have. It does not mean
the taking away the rights of others:
It does not mean the promoting of
' one's privileges to the disregard of
another's privileges.
"Freedom is the unimpeded right
to realize the felt law of being and
becoming our true selves.
"Christian statesmanship is coming
' forward In this day and age. We
must begin to think of our politics
as only being built up on the real-
and vital basic principles of Christian
principles as you and I understand
them."
