The adjourned annual meeting of
the congregation of the First Pres
byterian church will be held in the
church this evening- The principal
business of this meeting will be to
hear the report of the committee on
t he selection of a new pastor: ' It ' is
understood that this committee, of
which J. J. Boss is chairman, after
long and painstaking investigation,
and after a personal visit by the
chairman to several eastern cities
where men of high standing in the
church are located, has decided to
recommend that a call be made to
Rev. H. L.. Bowman, D. T., of Chl
cacra. The committee is unanimous rn the
recommendation of Dr. Bo-wmo-n and
this report will go to the congrega
tion with the unanimous indorsement
of the session, and it is expected that
the report will be adopted and that
Dr. Bowman will be elected pastor.
Vigjtn I Commanding;.
Ir. Bowman, although only little
more than 30 years old. is one of the
principal outstanding figures in the
I'resbyterian church today and has
obtained a strong following in Chi
cago through his forceful, vigorous
Interpretation of Christ's teachings.
He is a man of commanding figure
and a genial personality that invites
friendship, members of the committee
report.
The committee has been greatly
Aided in its search by Dr. John H.
Boyd, th former pastor, now occupy
ing the chair of homilectics in Mc
Cormiclt Theological seminary, Chi
cago. Dr. Boyd very strongly recom
mended Dr. Bowman as his successor.
Officers of the church say it is more
than likely that Dr. Bowman has
signified his willingness to accept the
call to this field of work, as it is
not usual to issue a call until its
favorable reception is predicated.
Dr. Bowman's coming, however, may
not be expected before August, as a
pulpit supply has been arranged until
that month. Rev. Howard Agnew
Johnston, D. D., remaining here until
May, and Dr. Boyd, who expects to
spend his summer vacation in Oregon,
has consented to occupy his former
pulpit during the months of May,
June and July.
MESSAGE OF CHEER GIVEX
Rev. E. Constant Says Resurrection
Is Hope of AH Mankind.
: "The Gospel of Easter" was the
ubject of the sermon of Rev. Edward
Constant at Highland Congregational
church.
"Easter's message," said Rev. Mr.
Constant, "was one of courage, cheer
and hope. No man who is influenced
by the idea of the resurrection can
ever be the victim of despair. Fai
ure, loss and defeat need never be
our destiny. Why make the tempo
rary permanent? There are glorious
possibilities afforded by God. In the
poet's language, 'Men may rise on
stepping-stones of their dead selves
to higher things."
As much as the crucifixion may
signify to us, we must not fail to look
beyond the cross. If we stand with
lear-fllled eyes and downcast look
we shall not detect the brilliant light
which breaks over Calvary.
"The gospel of Easter is a positive
cospel. The word of the risen Christ
Js one of affirmation. It gives reality
to cherished dreams, imparts consola
tion-to hearts bereaved and dissipates
tie", gloom of the 'funeral hour. It
places the spiritual above the mate
rial and puts upon the human the
Btamp of immortality."
PRESENT LIFE IS DISCCSSED
Dr. Johnston Preaches on Xeed for
Light of Christ' Every Tay.
Testerday morning at the First
I'resbyterian church. Dr. Howard
Agnew Johnston preached from the
teoit "Our Savior, Jesus Christ, hath
Kbolished death, and brought life and
immortality to light in the gospel."
His dominant thought was that
Christ's great revelation was not the
fact of a future life, but that he
brought life to light here and now,
"There is no reason for believing
in a. heavenly life that will somehow.
somewhere, be worth living, unless
we have known here ajid now of a
power which can realize such a life
Jn our daily experience, a life here
with, hope and peace and victory and
joy in it," said Dr. Johnston. "This
Ohrist made real and blessed to men.
Having this for him, it is natural
enough to rest tn his teaching that
in the ongoing of the soul we shall
continue to realize this worth-while
life in increasing measure."

parison. Headlining the bill is an excellent
comedian, Wilbur Mack, whose quiet
tj.cthods are more forceful and have
more far-reaching comedy results
than many of the noisier, obvious
humorists. He brings a new playlet
"Two Is Company" in .which he es
says the role of a flirtatious adven

her walk away with another man.

Charles Howard is a most amusing

cream and lolly pops. He punctuates
his non-alcoholic conversation with
long and lusty sucks of a lolly-pop on
a stick and his acrobatic reels and

Sandy Sihaw is a hardy Scot, whose
rolling r's and dialect are heard in a
series of Scotch character songs and
a war poem.
The Marino Brothers open the bill
with a sensational act- On a high

Brother Marino, acting as a balance

wide circle pursued by the whirring
torpedo. You'll have to see it to get

jazz songs and "comedy. There is a
whole family of them, the-old man,

and one in particular, a dancer, is de

Peggy Vincent, late of the Ziegfeld

has chosen her teammate well. He
is a large person, professing1 to be a
mule-skinner, who happened to be in
the audience. Peggy coaxes him to
sing with her. but he manages to be
the whole show and the girl's voice is
completely drowned out. Peggy finds
herself very much in the minority.
Two good acrobatic acts are on the
bill. There are the Ardell brothers,
who manage to drag a good deal of
fun into their stunts, and Reckless
and Arley. The latter conclude their
act with a performance on a bar at
the very top of the stage.
"At the Drug Store" is the title of a
skit in which Jack Russell and Belle
Ttus appear. Comic prescriptions and
a rapid-fire conversation, interrupted
at regular intervals with "There goes
that telephone bell." afford much
amusement. Miss Titus has several
catchy song numbers.
The Barra singers entertain with
popular song hits and ragtime on the
piano.

The reality of immortality is es
tablished beyond the necessity of
forced demonstration," said the Rev.
Robert Murray "Pratt, pastor of Pil
grim Congregational , church, yester
day morning, addressing his congre
ation for the first time since his
return from field service in the ln-
erest of the Pilgrim memorial.'
'Immortality is not something
manufactured out of mortality," said
Dr. Pratt, "nor is it a post-mortem
state conditioned upon ecclesiastical
requirement. Life is an affair of
continuity and immortality in its
quality. Truly, we are bound up in
the bundle of life. Our brothers
are the trees and we are related to
he everlasting hills. The universal
aw governs our being. We are a
part of that variously manifested life
hat characteristically moves in
cycles. We are one with the sea
sons and the stars.
Experience Brings Life's Noon.
Coming into our present state in
the blush of morning, we gr.ow into
the noontide as we accumulate ex
perience. The evening of life, though
often postponed, surely comes, and
then the night. And again the
morning.
'Our religious speculations all r
volve around that morning, has
ever been so. "Who shall roll us away
the stone?' There is the first cen
tury statement of the twentieth cen
tury question. And our perplexity is
ncreased by the complexity of the
answers. .
Truth Tested by Experience.
'The greatest truth is that which
can be tested by the common expert
ence. What is the message of the
morning of any day? Am I no, when
I arise, very much the same kind o
man I was the night before? The
agility of the quick-change artist is
not the quality of character. We are
not Mr. Hyde at night and Dr. Jekyll
n the morning. The matter of char
acter, the think with which religion
s most concerned, is the growing im
mortality of life's continuity.
'It was so with Jesus the Christ.
He lived by the power of the divine
life. Great principles moulded his
character and his character was the
text of his preaching. His sincerity
in trial and death attested his truth.
He did not make immortality possible.
He brought it to light. He proved
that the divine life could be lived.
The message of Easter is that the
Christ life is a new manifestation of
life, and the glorious radiance of the
new day will be the shining forth in
the lives of folks of him who is the
light of the world."

RELIGION" LIKEXED TO WAGER
Rev. E. IT. Pence Gives Sermon on
Question of Immortality.
"The Universe to Be Eternal Life,"
was the subject of Dr. E. H. Pence's
sermon delivered yesterday morning
at the Westminster Presbyterian
church.
"Donald Hankey said that 'religion
Is betting your life that there is a
god,' said Dr. Pence. "It is not clas
sically phrased, but the definition will
live along with the classics. With
some men it is the glorification of
the spirit of adventure; the conver
sion and sanctif tcation of the gam
bling instinct, which at the outset
risks the loss of a lower in order to
win assurance of a higher possession.
"There are two extraordinary
things about men; one is the superb
surrender to, and sacrific of all. to
get what they deem the good things
in an immortal life, and the other is
the singular hesitation of other men
to take any chance of losing a present
possession in order to be assured of
a future.
"There seem to be three major rea
sons, or excuses, for people's doubts
of immortality. The first reason
seems to be that our meager-minded-
ness is unable to conceive the vast
ness of such an idea'. Habituated to
the littleness of the life we live, there
appears no lure in any experience of
ours to draw us on to eager hope of
its continuance or fear of Its loss
Again, we permit our mental in
capacity tq think out how it all may
come to pass to chill the fervor of
hope. We forget that after the life
we- now live within these bodies no
other form of life beyond can be more
than commonplace. We wonder where
it shall come to consummation, and
let our inability to place and locate
to crib and cabin it within our little
conception give us pause at surren
dering ourselves to the sacrifices
needful to make sure of it all."
ASCENDANCY OF SIN" EXPOSED
Rev. George Bennett Lectures on
"Christ or Barrabas?"
"Christ or Barabas?" was the sub
ject of the sermon by B". George H.
Bennett. Patton Methodist church,
last night. He sai a: "Jesus stands
before the world the embodiment of
perfect life. Barabbas is the em
bodiment of sensuality and lawless
ness. The ideals of Barabbas wrecked
the ' race in Xoah's time, and have
strewed it with wreckage ever since.
They have enslaved mankind, robbed
woman of her rights in the world,
blighted childhood, and have fostered
crime, tyranny and war. that the
evil may live without work, and reap
the fruits of other, men s labor.
"The ideals of Christ would calm
the storm of wickedness and woe.
He points the way of truth and jus
tice. Christ knocks at the portal of
the heart a suffering man. He
proves his sympathy for misguided
men. But he stands at the door of
the heart a . suffering God. It
teaches the enormity of sin that re
quires such a sacrifice, and the good
intentions of God toward us. Christ
and Barabbas struggle for mastery
in your life. Do you turn Jesus
away.' Then Barabbas is released
unto you. He will devastate the
soul. The suffering world needs your
righteous influence and example."

FIRST EASTER DRAMA TOLD
Dr. Milliken Reviews Happenings
of Early Christianity.
Creeds are not the boundaries of
Christianity, according to the Easter
sermon preached yesterday morning
by Dr. William T. Milliken, pastor of
the Highland Baptist church. Dr
Milliken took for his text the passage
from Luke 24:5-6, "Why seek ye the
living among the dead? He is not
here, but he is risen."
The dramatic happenings of
first Easter were described by
Milliken, who said:
"It seems to me. this morning, that
I can see the disciples of the Lord
gathered, as history shows the Chris
tian custom was. on the first day of
the week a year later than the resur
rection. John and Peter and canny
Thomas and faithful Andrew are
there. And John, who seems to have
come a little closer to the heart of
his Ijord than any of the others, says:
" 'Peter, do you know what day
it is '."
"Peter answers: Why, it is the
anniversary of the resurrection of
the Lord.'
"The resurrection of Jesus Christ
swept the Christian faith forever be
yond the bounds of dead philosophy
into the current of life. Wo all, of
necessity, make our creeds, but Chris
tianity is vastly more than creed.
Christianity is the religion of an
empty tomb and a conquered death.
It is the tne faith that presents an
adequate Saviour; adequate because
death is powerless before him."
