TRIBUTE TO BE PAID SOLDIERS AND THEIR HOMES AS WELL
. i .
"Memorial for Living" Is Title of Unique Service in Which Chaplain Gilbert Will Participate at First Congregational Church Tonight.
10
UNIQUE services will be held in the
First Congregational Church at
7:45 P. M. Dr. Luther R. Dyott,
the pastor, has arranged what he calls
a. "memorial to the living" and has
Invited Chaolaln Gilbert to assist him
In paying tribute to "our brave boys
and the homes that gave them." It is
hoped that many soldiers, their rela
tives and friends will receive this pub
lic announcement, through the press, as
a. special invitation to be present on
this significant occasion. Dr. Dyott
promises that the services will by no
means be of a mournful character, but
of a highly patriotic order.
He will preach in the morning also,
)when.the theme of his intensely prac
tical sermon will be "How to Under
stand Man." Dr. Dyott will take his
vacation in August and may possibly
preach two Sundays in Chicago, as
two of the leading churches there have
Invited him to do so.
Harry Wade Hicks, of New York
City, spoke in the First Congregational
Church last Tuesday evening and again
on Thursday afternoon. Mr. Hicks is
general secretary of the missionary
education movement. His addresses
were designed to arouse interest in the
Seabeck conference, which will be held
the last of this month at Seabeck.
The Ladies' Missionary Society of this
church having become a Red Cross unit,
is actively engaged in the good work
and will continue activities all through
the Summer season.
The big feature today at the First
Baptist Church (White Temple) will
be the appearance of Rev. Russel
Brougher, son of Dr. J. Whitcomb
Brougher, who will preach in his fath
er's former pulpit and to his father and
his father's congregation.

The East Side Baptist Church has de
cided to erect its new church edifice
on what is known as the Couch-street
site, located at East Twentieth and
Couch streets. The building committee
has been appointed and the work, of
building will soon be commenced.
At East Side Church, Dr. Hinson will
preach this morning the fifth of a
series of sermons on "The Second Com
ing of Christ." His theme will be "The
Coming of the King to His Throne."
The audiences thronging the church at
these services demonstrates the wide
spread interest among Christians in
this doctrine.
In the evening Dr. Marshall, of Salem,
will occupy the pulpit. Dr. Hinson will
go to Albany to preach at the Chau
tauqua now in session in that city.
Dr. Hinson's sermons on "Christian
Science and the Bible" have been pub
lished in book form.
The services at this church are being
shortened as much as is possible during
the Summer months. The morning wor
ship commences at 11 and ends soon
after 12. The evening service, which
commences at 7:45. is sure to end at 9
o'clock. The mid-week service on
Wednesday evening commences at 7:45,
ending at 9. Dr. Hinson preaches at
each mid-week evening service and all
are welcome to attend.

THE service at St. Stephen's pro-Cathedral
Sunday morning will be of
an exceptional character. It will be

will also be delivered by Mrs. Ella
Flags Young, Chicago's noted educator.
The evening service will be conducted
by the Rev. J. G. Hatton, assistant rec

AMERICAN PATRIOTISM IS EXPRESSED IN
Finest Democracy Known in the World Today Has No Right to Claim a Monopoly Fiere, Says
BY LUTHER R. DYOTT, D. t)..
Pastor First Congregational Church.
He made of one every nation of men to
dwell on all the face of the earth, having
determined their seasons and the bound,
of their habitation that they should seek
God. We are also his offspring. Acts xvli:
26 and 2S.
AMERICAN patriotism is ahout to
have a new meaning, calling for
a larger and a more practical ap
plication, and a different definition.
The crisis hours through which the
world is passing, never again to be the
same old world, are fecund with awful
Import. They are. also, revelatory of
the character of men and nations, and
tremulous with apprehension as to what
may be awaiting us on the world's to
morrow. "With a terrible collision be
tween autocracy and democracy, we are
yet to see which shall constitute the
ciebris. or whether both alike shall be
wrecked, and what shall be found In
the ruins saturated with the blood of
nations and mixed with the dead bodies
of brave men.
As the "man in men" awakes, and
the serene light melts the palpitating
blackness of the starless night, and, we
believe, most resolutely, in the triumph
of right, the trend of normal faith and
sensible thought is toward ameliora
tion, and we positively refuse to be
pessimistic. God lives, and all persons
shall yet be "better than well," if we
are willing to do our part. America
lives, and America has always been
willing, is now willing, and. by the help
of the Just and almighty God, always
phall be willing to do her part that the
wrong may fail and the right prevail.
For right is right, since God is God.
And right the day must win;
To doubt would be disloyalty.
To falter would be sin.
Patriotism to Be More Extensive.
American patriotism is to be more ex
tensive and comprehensive than ever
before. Are we affirming too much?
Where does this lead us? Will it not
take away the very meaning of Ameri
can patriotism when we insist upon
expressing it in world terms? Is not
Its chief and essential glory in the fact
that it is so distinctively American?
We all know that patriotism means
love of one's country, devotion to one's
native or adopted land; it is a loyal
spirit, which, originating in love of
one's country, prompts obedience to its
laws and is willing to live one's life
to the support and defense of its ex
istence, rights and institutions, and to
the promotion of its welfare. Yes. we
all know this. But our Nation is our
family. Other nations are our neigh
bors, even though they may not all be
neighborly. Still the world has become
a neighborhood, without being a broth
erhood. This is another way of saying that
material progress has advanced more
rapidly than social and spiritual prog
ress. We are all here, and somehow
we must learn to live together as we
should. If one strong and selfish fam
ily decides that it is not satisfied with
its own material possessions, and be
comes ambitiously aggressive and
makes war upon other neighbors, then
meeting at Grace Memorial Church is
under the auspices of the Woman's
Auxiliary, and is making many articles
of outing flannel, such as capes for
convalescents and wipes for the guns.
The new St. Andrew's Church, Ports
mouth, is now complete and services
there have been resumed. The edifice
is of the -bungalow type, with a battle
ment tower in front, and is most at
tractive. Last Summer the founda
tions of the old building crumbled, with
the result that the church settled on
one side and was unsafe for use. It
has been practically rebuilt on a ce
ment foundation, the basement serving
as a parish hall and the church proper
being on the main floor. This work
was accomplished through the ener
getic efforts of Archdeacon Chambers.
There will be the service of the holy
communion in St. Andrew's Sunday
morning, at 11 o clock, being conducted
by the Rev. John D. Rice, general mis
sionary. The first service in the new
church was conducted last Sunday
morning by Paul Henderson.

the others who love their own homes
and families are, indeed, very small and
mean if they feel that the love of their
own is wholly sufficient. International
standards should be quite as high as
those for families and individuals. We
should love our country. This goes
without emphasis. We have no right
to be. and remain, in America if we
cannot love this country more than
any other. Those who are here and
feel that they can be more loyal to
Germany in the wrong than to Amer
ica in the right should remove to Ger
many and stay there if they wish to do
so. Germany needs such persons more
than America does. But all honor to
those in America who are of German
birth or extraction and are neverthe
less so truly American in spirit that
thoy are intensely loyal to America and
ready to display such loyalty, no mat
ter what may be the cost.
America Store Than Meltlns; Pot.
Germany has given our country some
of its best citizens. So have other
countries. Their brains, heir brawn.
their industry and thrift have helped
to make our country one of the great
est that the world has ever known.
The cosmopolitan character of the pop
ulation of the United States is not only
one of the wonders of the world, but
will yet prove to be one of the might
iest factors in the solution of world
problems. America ia more than a
melting pot. It is ' a human factory
where will yet be produced a new order
of humanity. It is said of a certain
American that on Monday morning a
Roumanian ash man cleaned his cellar,
and a Pole whitewashed its walls. A
German plumber came to fix a leak in
his bathroom pipes, and this man's
helper was a Dane. Mis cook was a
Swede, and the upstairs girl a Norwe
gian. The seamstress was a Belgian,
and the man pruning his vines was a
Hollander, and the one painting his
front fence was from Switzerland. He
left his laundry with a Chinaman, and
stopped on his way to see a Russian
tailor, and '.hen ordered groceries of a
Welshman, meat of a Scotchman and
fish of a Frenchman. He paused for
a moment and conversed with an Irish
policeman, and spoke to an Italian veg
etable man who was passing. The next
day he purchased some hardware from
an Armenian, and lerrned that his
milkman was from Lapland, and his
cobbler was a Hungarian. v He went
away from home, stopped at a hotel,
and a Philippine bellboy showed him
te his room, and he found at that ho
tel, among those serving in different
capacities, Slovaks, Greeks and Ser
bians. In some of our large cities, in
certain parts of these, one may observe
that four out of every five persons he
meets on the streets are foreigners.
American patriotism! O, is not such a
thing a misnomer?
They come, they come! One treads the
others heel:
And some we laugh and some we weep
to see.
And some we fear; but in the throng we
reel
The mighty throb of our own destiny.
Outstretched their bands to take whate'er
we give
Honor, dishonor, daily bread, or bane.

Cruelty of Turks Will Be
Described by Visitor.
Dr. Franklin IS. Boaklna, 30 Years
Anton Armenians, Will Speak at
Kln Presbyterian Church Today
on Sufferings Inflicted.
THE First Presbyterian Church will
have a distinguished guest in its
pulpit today. Dr. Franklin E. Hoskins,
from Beirut, Syria. Dr. Hoskins is con
sidered an eminent authority on mat
ters connected with the East and the
Turkish Empire. He nas spent more
than 30 years in the Moslem empire.
Dr. Hoskins left Turkey just before
the entrance of the United States into
the war and he will tell of the treat
ment of the Armenians by "the Terri
ble Turks." His experience in getting
out of the Turkish Empire was quite
remarkable because of an overland
Journey from Beirut all the way to
Constantinople. Part of the Journey
was taken in a motor truck in the serv
ice of the GermanAjovernment.
Some weeks ago a description of this
trip was published in the "Outlook,"
although at that time the paper was
not at liberty to mention Dr. Hoskins'
name. For a great many years Dr.
Hoskins has been correspondent of the
London Times, and as he came through
London on his way to this country he
was detained there so that he could be
consulted by the British Government
and had several conferences with Sir
Edward Grey.
Dr. Hoskins is not appearing on many
platforms as his health is impairea and
the physicians have forbidden him to
work hard, but he has agreed to this
one appearance at 10:30 today. Dr.
Hoskins is visiting his friend, H. C.
Campbell, at the University Club.
In the evening at 7:45 the pastor. Dr.
John H. Boyd, will preach on ."The
Problem of the Individual in Times of
World Unrest."
Mrs. J. F. Fulton, of 5830 Thirty
ninth avenue Southeast, left the lat
ter part of the week for Sunnyslde,
Not theirs to choose how we may bid them
live.
But what we give we shall receive again.
America, charge not thy fate to these!
The power is ours to mold them or to mar:
But freedom's voice, far down the centuries
Shall sound our choice from Dlazlng star
to star.
Patriotism 3ot a Matter of Birth.
Some have returned to their native
lands, others remain among us, and no
student of the times can positively say.
Just now, what will be the nature of
the immigrant problem after the world
war, but of one thing we are certain:
American patriotism can be infused
into the lives of those among us who
were not born in this country. This
patriotism is a spirit, and Is not deter
mined by the place of a man's birth, but
by the quality of his life, the apprecia
tion of his soul, the powers 01 His ois-
cernment. and a parity of progress.
American patriotism has, thus far.
been equal to the pressing demands
upon It. No emergency has arisen with
out our having men to matcn occasions.
When our fathers debated over that
simple, but immortal scroll, they were
equal to the demands upon them; when
America stood torn and bleeding amid
the Civil War, It was evidenced at
length that we were not to have two
kinds of patriotism, one for the South
and another for the North, but that
liberty and union were to remain "one
and inseparable." When America said
to Spain, "Cuba shall be free," worthy
sons of those who loved freedom more
than life went forth to render free
dom's equivalent.
Within the last few months great de
mands have been made upon our people
and we all know what the response
has been. Even greater demands may
yet be made, but the American spirit is
big, and broad, and brotherly; and.
while we should be sufficiently serious,
there is no need of despair. Some loyal
souls have said, "America for Amer
icans," now we must change the saying
and prove that America, with all that
she has, is for the world.
America for the world! If, as "Virgil
said, "The noblest motive Is the public
good," then that public good mv.Bt not
be confined to national bounds. The
great Daniel Webster, on fire with
patriotism, exclaimed, "I was born an
American: I live an American; I shall
die an American!" Were he among us
today, in his bodily presence, he might
add to what he then exclaimed, "but all
this I am, that my country may be for
the world!"
America Is Not Selash.
Now, more specifically, what do we
mean when we claim that American
patriotism should be expressed In world
terms? We mean that our country Is
not an enemy to any other country
upon the face of the earth. We have
rfo selfish ambition to increase our ter
ritorial possessions though, indeed, it
might be better for the world If Canada,
North and South America, were to bej
come one country. We are opposed to
nothing that is good for any other part
of the world, and are In favor of all that
is good, and right, and true for the
whole world. Being in favor of these
things, quite naturally, we cannot be
neutral when neutrality would indi

Idaho, where she will join Mr. Fulton,
who has been employed in that place
for several months. They expect to
make Sunnyside their future home.
The women of the Anabel Presby
terian Church and congregation gave
a farewell party for Mrs. Fulton at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. E. B. Couey, of
6003 Fortieth avenue Southeast. Mr.
and Mrs. Fulton have been active in
the life of the church while they have
rectly contribute to the sacrifice of a
world democracy in the agonies of Its
birth.
We are not opposed to Germany, and i
we love the Germans. But we are op- i
posed to that which Is an enemy to
Germany, and an enemy to the whole
world an autocracy which would choke
the life out of liberty, and would make
men slaves who were born to be free. ,
Too precious Is freedom to Americans
to be regarded as the Bole treasure of
America. It is ours. But it is ours
that we may give it to the world. Amer
ican patriotism would eventually die if ,
it were to remain nothing more than
American. Every part of the world, in
spite of its glaring imperfections, has
something else that is needed by all
other parts, and the human rac will
never come to its best until the best
of each becomes the possession of all.
and the world as a neighborhood is
filled with the spirit of a true brother
hood. American patriotism lives in the
finest democracy that is known to the
world today, and we have no right to
claim a monopoly here, or with refer
ence to anything else that we possess.
We are for ourselves only that we may
be for others. Our altruism must live
not merely in noble sentiments, but in
unselfish deeds, and in an unfaltering
faith in God and man.
When Jesus said, "For this cause eame
I unto this hour," he had the cause of
God and humanity within his heart, and
he paid for it with his life, and then
lived more abundantly. So. in a sense.
It is with America now in the world.
Some of our brave sons who har t gone
abroad will never come home again.
Some will sleep in unknown graves,
but the price they, and we, pay for the
world's good will not be too great. The
American spirit animates them, and
history will Immortalize that which
they are doing.
Bread Means More Tban Bullets.
American patriotism in world terms
is to open the heart and stretch forth
the hands of America to bless the world
In more ways than one. Bread will
mean more than bullets, and food will
mean mors than fighting, and our man
hood will not be limited to our soldiers
and our sailors. We will never stint our
honor to those- who, on land and sea. In
the trenches and on fields of battle and
in the air, win a righteous cause for the
world, but likewise will we always re
member the patriots of the plow, of the
open pocketbook, of the hosts who
make the work of the Red Cross possi
ble, and those who serve in the work
of the Red Cross, and all those who
are sufTTciently concerned about the
food crisis.
Some time ago President Wilson fore
saw the probability of this crisis. Now
Herbert Hoover tells us certain things
that we should duly consider. He calls
attention to the fact that the allies are
asking for 50.000.000 bushels of wheat
from Canada and the United States
this year, but unless special steps are
taken both Canada and the United
States will be able to furnish the allies
only 3.000.000 bushels. Do we realise
what this would mean? If. however,
wise measures are adopted, and our
people will guard against wasteful
ness, ilr. Hoover saya there will te

been in the community. lore than 60
friends of the Fultons were present
and spent a pleasant s octal evening.
Rev. R. N. Mclean, of Dubuque, la.,
formerly pastor of the Aaxn-bel Church,
was a welcome visitor. Rev. Mr. Mc
lean has Just Joined his- family, who
preceded him last month, and will
spend the month of July in Portland.
Mrs. Couey was assiste-d by a num
ber of the women of t aa church in
serving refreshments.
Dr. Arthur F. Bishop, (vlio has been
ill several weeks, is impro ring steadily,
and will occupy his pulpi i today. The
evening service will be oir lifted the rest
of July and all of August. In the Sun
day school, an effort is butng made to
interest all during the Summer months
by holding a general poiiular service
at noon, at which addre ses will be
enough food for the alii as and our
selves also.
In most American homej we are no
toriously wasteful. It is aid that the!
waste In food amounts to lit least t50 j
a year for every family In America.
The waste of just a little in. every home
amounts to a great deal l'x the aggre
gate. Thus a single ou n-ce of food
wasted each day in every some means
a yearly loss of nearly 600,000,000
pounds of food. The waste of Just one
slice of bread in every home each day
means the daily waste a million
loaves. Think what a thousand million
dollars needlessly (shall I aay wicked
ly) wasted in our America ji households
every year would do to help others.
Earnestly does Mr. Hoover ask: "Will
you join In the good work of saving
more food for the women and children
of Belgium, the orphans o r France, the
men In the trenches, who are fighting
our battles, and for the people of the
United States?" Let us answer from
every home in our counti y. "Yes!" But
the difficulty will be iiiund, not so
much in our want of wll Ungness as in
our cot knowing bow.
Waste Is Net late mtlonml.
So many Americans are wasteful
without meaning to be. and many who
consider themselves thiLfty have yet
some things to learn. 33vt the larger
part of the problem is not made by the
poor. It is not so much the waste in
the homes of those wbr are ignorant
and poor as it is the e gtr&vagance in
the homes of the rich ai Ml reckless that
makes the problem den .
But why ask our pcior to stint or
even our rich to econ smize, for the
sake of others if at thu same time we
do nothing about food- control and the
permanent regulation of prices that
shall be just and fair t all concerned?
It Is also patriotism of a. first-rate or
der which decides that these high
handed robbers who ha ve filched $250,
000,000 within the last five months in
excess of normal profit s from our con
sumers shall not contlxrrue their hellish
plunderlngs: neither rihall they hide
for a little while only 1 reappear with
greater greed than ev nr. Most of us
will continue to regul ite our personal
affairs so that we nray bear our part in
helping others, but 'bile we do this
let not others rob us.
Moreover, in facing the food crisis,
some of us cannot bel p thinking of the
6.000,000,000 pounds of American food
stuffs that were pu't into the manu
facture of Intoxicant a. last year, when
all these foodstuffs were needed for
feeding the people. jSow it seems that
we are determined Jo do a little, but
in our National af fairs our leaders,
back in Washington. D. C. came dan
gerously near to b &vlng an attack of
nervous postponem ent on account of
the bone-dry clause and were so afraid
that a prolonged -fight over the act
would be dangero'is for us that they
were heroic enour ;h to dodge a little
and then tell us t tat the restriction In
the manufacture of liquor would be
enough for the present and that they
were not in favor- of the prohibition of
wine and beer.
Cupidity and s appetite should be si

use of intoxicants. If it is good for
these men to abstain, then why will It
not be good for all the rest of us? Pa
triotism has much work to do in this 1
direction. Now we have seen that
American patriotism has been adequate
In so many Instances and respects In
the past and that it has greater de-
manas upon It at the present and that
It must now become and then continue
more comprehensive and far-reaching.
It is unique, exceptional and essential
In the fact that it has more for the
world than the patriotism of any other
land. Observe the patriots of other
lands. Study them. They, also, are
loyal to their own. We are constrained
to admire them and measurably to ap
preciate such loyalty. But. after all,
where In some cases does this patriot
Ism take them, and what delivery can
they make in world terms that can
equal that which our country must
make?
American patriotism is not ours so
much for comparisons and contrasts
with the patriotism of other nations,
as it is to be of greater-' service to alL
Its superlative value Is not, even now,
altogether conspicuous. It is bound to
grow and improve. This world war
will not exhaust It. Neither will it
be so brutalized as to lose its finer
ethical edge, nor so spent that it will
have to stop to catch Its breath after
it has done its part in giving democracy
to the world. We will have no time
to shout ourselves hoarse after the
victory comes and come It surely must.
Great, indeed, is the task we are now
beginning. Greater yet may be our
task after the war is over. It is too
early, at present, to say Just what we
shall have to do in its entirety. Some
things, however, that will demand our
National life and resources already be
gin to dawn upon us. It will be ours
more than ever to proclaim the gospel
of love and good will. Hatred will be
found spreading her black wings over
the wounded hearts in many desolate
homes In the world. The hot breath
of animosity will poison the atmos
phere about the lives of thousands of
men, women and children.
lesson Comes From Battle Field.
Those who are now actively engaged
in warfare, and others who will join
them, or take their places when they
are slain in battle, will not feel these
things as much, perhaps, as their rel
atives on both sides. It has usually
been so. In fact, on fields of battle,
soldiers often show great kindness and
tenderness of heart in the most trying
hours to those who belong to the side
of the "enemy." Let us notice Just one
Instance, illustrative of many others
much like it. A Red Cross worker
found a letter the other day written
by a French cavalry officer as he lay
wounded, bleeding and dying. The con
tents of this letter were somewhat as
follows:
" "There are two other men lying near
me, and I do not think there Is much
hope for them, either. One Is a Scotch
officer and the other is a private in
the Uhlans. They were struck down
after me, and when I came to myself
I found them bending over me render

Gospel of Love Mart Follow.
The letter closed with mention ot
the failing light and the constant roar
of guns. Oh, they do not hate In war
when they come to die, and prayers, not
curses, are on their lips. But those
who suffer at home do not find It easy
to forgive and to empty their hearts
of all bitterness. So the gospel of love
and good will must follow after the
war, and the leaves from the tree of
life must heal the hurts of nations. In
this blessed work America will give a
new meaning to its patriotism, as it
takes leadership in the name of him
at whose birth the angels gave an
overture of peace and good will.
It will be America's part more than
ever to help evangelize the world. She
will have to do more for missionary
enterprises and take world leadership
in bringing to pass the brotherhood of
nations and of men. This means that
patriotism and religion will have to
combine in a world endeavor for the
betterment of mankind.
Patriotism, without religion of th
right sort, is like a body without its
soul. We are bound to do more than
keep body and soul together. Let us
now take the next step toward usher
ing in the brotherhood of nations and
of men and compel the world to say:
The brotherhood of Xations and of men
Comes on apace. New dreams of youth
bestir
The ancient heart of the earth-fair dreams
of love
And equal freedom for all folk and races.
The day is past for idle talk of Empire;
And who would glory in dominating others.
Be it man or Nation, he already has writ
His condemnation, clear in all men's hearts.
American patriotism is born of Go!J
and it must ever be for the world, untif
the whole world shall become God's
complete possession, and all mankind
shall live together as brothers.
