(The following sermon was preached as m ante-labor day discourse on the Sunday preceding Labor day. Labor not for the meat that perisheth tmt foF the meat that endureth unto eternal life which the Son of Man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed. John 0:27. BY FRANK D.

It would put an end to all trade, commerce and industry; to all invention, science and progress. It would be the undoing of civilization. And Is therefore contrary to God and the whole genius of Christianity. We have to interpret it in the light of the fourth commandment "Six days chalt thou labor and do all they work" - which puts God's premium and sanc tion on labor. AVe must hartnoniie it with God's de cree to humanity that "in the sweat of thy brow- thou shalt eat bread." That t$& ls I positions for young people who are strangers in the city and who desire employment, at the same time contrib uting to the social life of the church by their informal monthly socials. All young people of the city who are stran gers or who have no other church af filiation are urged to become members. The Business Girls' Club, a social or ganization of the First Congregational Church, holds regular meetings on the first and third Tuesdays of each month. Its membership is limited to young women who are employed in the city, though not necessarily members of this church. Though primarily a social club, many young women who have come to the city as strangers are assisted in obtaining employment or in finding de sirable homes in Portland. Day of Atonement Will Be Observed This Week. Initial Service to lie grin In Temple Beth Israel Saturday lffht and Continue Sunday, THE next Jewish holiday, the Day of Atonement, will be observed this week. In Temple Beth Israel and all the other synagogues appropriate cerv ices will be held. - -- - The initial service will be the night of September 17. The entire day of Sep tember 18 will be devoted to it- The ritual of the day will be public and congregational; but its significance Is personal. Of the celebration a Jewish authority says: The day brings the people together, be cause they share the limitations of human nature and because they are equally aware of the fact that careers, whatever they may be to others, satisfy or dissatisfy our selves in accordance with our moral or im moral interests. This holy day gives op portunity for earnest thought on our inner life. The difficulties men encounter In the course of a busy year may prove, after self examtnati jn, to be not "decrees" of God but instances of their shortcomings. The an cients frankly and humbly called them "sins." The reminiscences of centuries cling to this day of days and make its lessons sug gestive and impressive. In ancient times priestly solemnities invested it with dignity and the persecutions of later times gave it pathos and intense fervor. It is always a salutary experience to face the facts of life as they are, to realize that there are illu sions and delusions, to bring home to our selves the truth that we work under the limitations of mind, heart and will. Men who feel their responsibilities will "neither ignore this reminder nor evade the appeal. They will avow frankly the shortcomings of their common human nature in the midst of their fellowmen. The day of atonement is not for selfishness. It is for moral uplift by which we may acquire moral strength. The first act of moral health Is humility. mm The Guilds of the P'irst Congrega tional -Church. Chapters 1 and 2, con fine their membership to the young married women of the church and con gregation. Their meetings are held on the second Thursday of each month in the church parlors or in the homes of their members. Their time is given to sewing for various charitable organ izations of Portland.

The Ladies Aid Society of the First Congregational Church met in- the church parlors Wednesday. This was the" first meeting of the church year, and one of the social events of the Fall. After a short business meeting, con ducted by Mrs. W. E. Mclnheny, presi dent, the afternoon was passed in sew ing and in talking over plans for the Winter. The members of the society had as their guests members of the other organizations of the church. Light refreshments were served. EXPLAINS PART - ... , . . . . Rev. Frank D. Findley Declares It Is Necessary to is no reflection on the bread. It is an ! exaltation of the method by which we are to get hold of it. We must adjust it to fauie vigorous law "if a man will not work, neither shall he eat" which would out distance Fletcherism several parasanges and consign some dear folk to a per petual fast. We must interpret it in the light of the context and the circumstances under which Jesus uttered it. Trailing of Crowd Recalled. The crowd was trailing around after Jesus because he had wrought a mir acle for them and fed them with loaves and fishes. And that was all they were after. But Jesus didnt come down here to glorify a man's stomach or to relieve him of the blessing of work. He came to bring the bread of heaven, the truth and the love of God. the priceless gift of eternal life. It's trifling with time, duty and opportunity to be always tramping and clamoring for loaves and fishes when heaven bends low to give us all an eternal kingdom and make us spiritual kings and millionaires. But how the animal within us growls and barks and refuses to die! How the physical fights for the ascendency! How the temporalities of life blind us and the dust of the road rises to put out the sun and the stars of God's heaven above us! It is the old story of Esau over and over again, losing a birthright for a bowl of soup. It is the old story of the muckraker with eyes on his feet and blind and dead to the jeweled crown held overhead by the shining hand of angels. It was a new phrasing of that classic utterance, "Seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things shall be added to you," It was an arresting of the stam pede of materialism with that luminous and sobering interrogation, "What shall it profit a man if he gain tho whole world and lose his own soul?" No, we are not out of sympathy with Portland P actor to Lecture on Oregon in East. Rev. J. Richard Olson to Give Scries of Illustrated Talks on Columbia Highway and Pacific IVorthwest. REV. J. RICHARD OLSON, pastor of the Immanuel Lutheran Church, at Nineteenth and Irving streets, will leave tonight for a trip to the East. He will give a series of lectures in several cities.

This morning there will be a communion servlee and reception of new members at Immanuel Church and tonight there will be an elaborate service with spe cial music. During the absence of the pastor, the pulpit will be filled by prominent men who will visit Portland. The pipe organ society of the church held its last meeting Friday, when it was entertained by Rev. Mr. Olson. A programme of music and a social hour were enjoyed. The society has already accumulated a large sum toward the purchase of the new organ. The Ladies' Aid Society of the church went by special car to pass the day re cently with Mrs. Anna L. Smith at her country home at Bonita. There are SO members of this society. m The Multnomah County Sunday School Assciation will conduct a community Sunday school workers' training school. Lectures will be given by Professor Norman Frank Keed Colman. Reed Col lege has consented to combine his ex tension lecture No. 24 with the Sunday school training lectures. The associa tion will meet every Tuesday at the Central Library, beginning September 28, at 8 o'clock. Millard - Avenue Sunday School Plans Rally Day. Effort to Be Made to Have Full At tendance on September -t. THIRTY members of the Millard Avenue Presbyterian Church Sun day school gathered at the home of Rev. W. H? Amos, at 7420 Sixty-second street Southeast, on Monday, for the regular monthly workers conference of the school. The teachers of the school were present and great Interest was manifested m the work for the com ing search. Preliminary steps we're taken to provide for the needed im provement in Sunday school rooms in the basement of the church. Definite plans were completed for rally day, which will be observed Sep tember 26. As feature of the plan, an effort will be made to have every member jf the Sunday school present at the rally day service, which looked upon as a day of welcoming back to those who have been away, as Labor day. On the contrary we hail it with delight, we bless the circum stances that gave it birth, the senti ments, ideals and struggles of men that made it possible. The world of labor what a thrilling sight, with all its energies, pursuits and achievements! It is a dream of the gods. In the broad field of battle and in the bivouac of life men are not dumb driven cattle, men are heroes in the strife. World of Labor Landed. Indeed, properly understood, there is no world worth talking about outside the world of labor. In this world of labor we find every normal man and woman: in it we find every toiler and every thinker; -the maker of marbles and the builder of empires; the man who digs ditches and the sage who dreams dreams; the plodder. who plows and the prophet who preaches; the hand that threads the neeale and the hand that charts the star-lit heavens and counts their threads of light. In the world of labor Is the vast army of the redeemed. In it is Jesus the founder and maker of Christianity, working, always work ing to carry the world onward and up ward. In it are the saints in glory, who work on without suffering and fatigue, singing as they work in that beautiful world above. In it is the great God of creation, providence and redemption, working a work or infinite love on a prodigious scale through the ceaseless eternities. Yes. you and I belong to this world of labor and this Labor day is our day pf labor for God and humanity. But let us give these terms their or dinary usage. Labor day then is the holiday of tomorrow given in honor of labor, and the world of labor is the working man's world, with its toil and problems, its wealth and its glory as we find it in commerce and industry. Let us think of this toiling multitude building up the Nation's wealth, feed ing it, clothing it, housing it and serv i v SSS V I - ) - "7":,-';, V- V 7r t7 . . t ssMTiirnriTii-iiiiiiaiiiiirrn iln ri an ini I I I CHURCH W ORKERS PROMINENT IX AFFAIRS OF THE WEEK, Rev.

Standing in the midst of it we hear the hum and the music of industry, we see the roar ing and belching furnaces, we feel the wild Joy and the glad freedom and the rugged power of a world at work. Then with all this smoke and noise, this struggle and achievement and glory as a background upon it all let us throw the lighted words of the great Nazarene: "Labor not for the meat that perisheth, but for that meat which endureth." Friendship for Labor Announced. It means that men are not always working for the best things; that in their labor they may miss the real work and wealth of life; that in the ab sorption of their task and the weak ness of their soul they may dethrone the supreme things and put the crown on trifles. It means that every work man is to outlive his work and if he is a man of wisdom and forethought he will daily lift his eyes up from his tools and his task and contemplate some real things that are inrisible and eternal. Yes, I am in deep sympathy with Labor day. I am a friend of labor. I, too, belong to tnat craft. I am work ing that -the yrorld of labor may come into its divine heritage of Jife and riches. '" It has been said there is an estrange ment between the church and the cause of labor. This is tire wildest kind of fiction. There is no basis for it. Where it may chance to exist it is a bit of ignorant prejudice which some men have brought here from other lands and other conditions. The church is the friend of man and the servant of humanity. Its estrange ment is with nothing, but with sin and wrong wherever found and to this it is held irrevocably by the will and power of God. The church is democratic and there fore cannot be out of sympathy with labor. In a true sense it, too, is of the people, for the people and by the peo Girl Ushers Act at Calvary Presbyterian Church. SutmtAntlal Growth In f'onKrcKatloa of "Family Churrh" Reported During Dr. Baan'i Pastorate. GIRLS are ushering at the regular church services at Calvary Presby terian Church. Heretofore men always have served as ushers and the innova tion is creating great interest in the church. The girls started their new work last Sunday and much surprise was expressed by several of the older and more" conservative members. Calvary has been termed "the family church." It has grown substantially during Dr. Oliver S. Baum'a pastorate. Many new families are uniting with the church. The chairmen of the Neighborhood Clubs of the First Congregational Church met in the primary rooms on Wednesday for luncheon. Plans were made for these meetings soon to be re sumed. The organization was perfected last year, that members of the church tn various localities might become bet ter acquainted and to promote socia bility and good fellowship. Rev. John Ii. Boyd, D. "D., pastor of the First Presbyterian Church, corner Twelfth and Alder streets, was wel comed home from his Summer vacation last Sunday by large audiences at both morning and evening sevices. Unique plans are in embryo at this time, which are promising to work out into the greatest series of opening entertain ments and homecoming receptions that have ever been attempted in the an nual rally week of this congregation. The dates have been set for September 22-27, and full programme will appear next weeK. The Women's Missionary Society of the First Presbyterian Church will fire the first shot in the Fall campaign in a meeting to be held in room A of the church house Tuesday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock. The subject for the day is rews from the front, with Mrs, John S. Dunning and Mrs. David Lor- ing as leaders. Mrs. Eva Hallis Doug las, a member of this society, and t missionary to Persia, who has been in this country for several months on furlough, sailed from New York on ple. If there is anywhere any true and pure democracy, it is represented by the Church of Jesus Christ. Moreover, the church preaches a dem- 1 ocratic gospel, one gospel for every body, one gospel for all the world. There is no world-message, and there fore no message really democratic, save the gospel of Jesus Christ. Does not the gospel stand boldly for the equal ity of man not an equality of talents, capacity or efficiency? for the stars have not the same magnitude; the birds have not the same song; the flowers have not the same beauty or fragrance. But an equality of right and opportunity, and that is all that labor can ask for. Chorea Formation Discussed. The gospel stands for love, service and brotherhood, and as I understand it, labor is not seeking for anything less than that. The gospel is against any system of caste and class, for that would be a curse to all who labor; would strangle our liberties and cru cify the spirit of brotherhood. Furthermore, the . churches them selves are composed of laboring peo ple, the most earnest, industrious, en ergetic people in the world people who labor with brain and brawn, who have their shoulder to the world's burden, who believe that labor is a sacrament and work is a gift from God. Tho church universally and sympa thetically recognizes Labor day. It does this because it appreciates the achievements and triumphs of labor; it sees the problems and the perils of labor; it knows the foes of labor; it has its eyes on the great Master of labor, and wants to do a brother's part and cheer up the heart of labor to fol low on where the Master leads. Not on the first Sabbath of Septem ber only, but on the first day of every week the year throughout, the church stands forth n behalf of all who labor. It pleads for justice; it calls to the September 29, to return to her field of labor in the tragedies of the Eu ropean war. A letter received from Mrs. E. T. Allen, who is also a mission ary to Persia from this society, will be read at this meeting. Rev. Mr. and Mrs. Allen are well known in Portland, and news already has been had through the press concerning the hardships and thrilling experiences they have suf fered, and Mrs. Allen's personal report on present conditions is of intense in terest. All women interested in mis sion work are invited to be present at this meeting. The world-renowned "Passion Play, as done every 10 years at Oberammer gau. will be presented in moving pic ture at 12:10 today in the Sunday school auditorium of the First Presby terian Church, corner Twelfth and Al der streets. This is the promised cli max of a most successful Summer ses sion, during which a continued course of study on the life of Christ has been followed out. with beautiful and ap propriate lantern slides In illustration.

The Silver Circle of the First Con gregational Church met at the home of Mrs. E. C. Cook Thursday. Mrs. AV. B. Knapp is president of this society. which numbers among its membership many of the women who have been in active work In the church for years. Eight new members were added to the White Temple (First Baptist Church) last Sunday, and at the even ing service four more decided to unite with the church and more than 20 came forward as a result of the appeal for decision in the after-meeting.

At night Dr. Hinson will commence a series of sermons on "The Home." The series will deal with the home at large, how It is made and how sustained, and will be an effort to discuss fully and fear lessly the whole subject from court ship to divorce.

It creates the sweet atmos phere where man can sing at his toil and eat the fruit of his labor and rest serenely in the hope of a better and brighter tomorrow. When the church pleads the cause and flie rights of the immigrant it has not ceased to be the friend of labor. It is proving its loyalty to man. It is recalling the days when our fathers also were immigrants and when other men lived and wrought and died for their liberties. It remembers that the glory of all human life is service, and its blight and curse is selfishness. It remembers the health of our .institu tions is Imperiled where ignorance and disease are allowed to work and that no man can be permanently up while others remain hopelessly down. Slave Peril Explained. When the church pleads for the Sab math it is anything else but Pharisa ism. It is her passion for the poor, her sympathy for the weary, her solicitude for the struggling, toiling mass of humanity And if there is any heat In ler heart and firmness in her lips and any uncompromising insistence In her speech, it is because she knows that with the passing out of the Sabbath men would cease to be laborers and hasten to be slaves. When the church pleads for temper ance it is because she knows that liquor and labor cannot both live and prosper on the same hemisphere. When the church pleads the sanctity and integrity of the home it is be cause it knows the home to be great labor's mighty refuge where its cares are lifted, its wounds are healed, and its arms are given power tot the task of tomorrow. And when the church lifts her phine Marx, O. B. Hughes and William Montgomery, wiil sing, "Awake TL'p My Glory" (Chadwick). In the evening at 7:45 there will be a special young peo ple's service. At this time Dr. Dyott w-ill take for his theme. "Are Toung People Making Good?" There will be special music by the quartet, and all young people of the church and their friends are most cordially welcome. The Epworth League will have charge of the evening service at the hour for preaching the hour having been changed from 7:45 to 7:o0 at Kp worth Methodist Episcopal Church, Savier and North " Twentieth streets, next Sunday.

Randall, secretary of religious work in the Young Men's Christian Associa tion, will sum all up with an address on "The Conclusion of the Whole Mat ter Personality Plus the Holy Spirit." Special music and new voices in the addresses promise a meeting of inspira tion and uplift to the young life of the church and community.

Column 4.) blanched face up against the wild curse of war it is because she knows that through war labor's homes are wrecked; labor's wives and mothers. are eaten up with famine and grief; labor s children are made odphans; labor's wealth is consumed like stu b ble; labor's back is bowed with war taxes for generations to come; and that labor's genius and toil and sweat and tears will be summoned to clear awny the ruins and rebuild, if possible, the torn and desolate nations. Counteractions to War SoaKht. One year of war turns " to smoke and ashes what ages have built up and the church seeks to call the world of labor not to a programme of de struction and annihilation, but to the slower, nobler, and diviner programme of construction, redemption, and world betterment. Yes, the church is the friend of laoor, because the church is the friend of man, and is seeking to make man universally and permanently the friend of God, helping him to reach up after God's thoughts and to travel on in the pathway of his feet. m The church invites the world of la bor to share with it everywhere tht patient divine task that will heal the human heart of passion's fever and sin-sickness and that will bring nearer to the world that radiant day of hope and prophecy. When navies arc forgotten And fleets are useless things. When the dove shall warm her bosom Beneath the eagle's wings. When the memory of battles At last Is strange and old When nations have one banner An 1 creeds have found one fold. When the hand that sprinkles midnight With its powdered drift of suns Has hushed this tiny tumult Of sects and swords and guns. Then hate's last rote of discord In all God's world shall cease In the conquest which la tervloo, , In victory which, is peace.
