CULTURE IS NEEDED
IN OUR PULPITS
Ideals of Zion and Greece Corn-
spared by the Rev. Dr.
E. P. Hill.
ATHENIAN 8ELFI8HNE83
AND ZIONIST SEVERITY
Knowledge of Art Doee Not Make
Up for Ignorance of the
Commandments.
At the First Presbyterian church yes
terday. Dr. Edgar P. Hill delivered an In
structive and interesting- sermon from
the text:
"Thy sons, O Zion. against thy sons.
O Greece. And the Lord shall be seen
over them." Zech. lx., II.
The preacher said:
"Zion and Oreece are here brought
face to face. Two ideals confront each
other. Two civilisations are arrayed on
the battlefield. Athens has sent her
men to make war against the men of
Jerusalem. The men of culture stand
opposed to the men of righteousness, and
this suggests the morning theme. Men
of righteousness versus men of culture.
"The histories of the two races offer
points of striking contrast. Zion traced
its beginnings back to Adam, whose
most noteworthy act was disobedience
of the divine commandment. Conscience,
duty, sin are the words ws use in de
scribing that strange transaction In the
garden of Eden. The Oreeks traced their
ancestry to the gods and goddesses of
Mount Olympus, where Apollo played on
the lyre and Hephalstos wrought forms
' of wondrous beauty and Aphrodite
talked of love and Athene talked of
wisdom. The Greeks engaged in many
wars and so did the people of Israel.
But what a difference. That long and
bitter conflict which the Oreeks waged
against Troy, which Homer has immor
talised in his great Byte; was all be
cause of a woman. The beautiful Helen,
wife of Menelaus, king of Sparta, was
carried away by Paris, and then the
long-drawn-out war began. But think
of the wars in which Israel engaged.
Israel fought for God. The object was
to destroy ths enemies of Jehovah, and
the dependence was not so much on
the prowess of the soldiers as upon the
presence and help of Him who rules all
tilings.
"Zion had a temple, and so did Oreece.
But how different! Zion's temple was
msde of Cedars of Lebanon and was
( ornamented with gold and silver; but
no sculptors or painters adorned It with
pieces of statuary or pictures, for God
had said: Thou 'Shalt not make unto
thee any graven Image, or any likeness
of anything in heaven or in the earth
beneath, or that is In the water under
the earth.'
A Thing of Beauty.
"But Greece's temple was a thing of
glorious beauty, wbloh the greatest
sculptors the world has known adorned
with works of art, that today, after so
many centuries, are cherished as treas
ures of priceless value. In the oella
of the Greek temple sat a silent figure
of marble and ivory, beautiful to look
upon, but in the holy-of holies of Zion's
temple within the sacred ark there
rested the tables of stone on which Je
hovah had made known his righteous
' will. The distinctiveness of ths two
opposing powers, Zion and Greece, may
perhaps be most Impressively empha
sised by calling the roll of their great
heroes. Oreece had such poets as
Homer, who sang of war and love and
the intrigues of men. Zion had such
poets ss David, who confessed their
sins and praised God's law and sang of
the mercies of the Lord. Greece had
her srtlsts like Phidias, her orators like
Demosthenes, her philosophers like
Kiii-rates, snd her people loved to come
together under' the open sky and listen
to the plays of Aeschylus or Sophocles.
Zion hsd her Moses, mighty law giver;
her Abraham, friend of God; her
Isaiah, the lofty-minded preacher of
righteousness, and when her people
came together It was In the courts of
the Lord's house to pray and to make
Inquiry concerning the Lord's will.
"Zion and Greece were arrayed against
each other In the olden days. All down
through the centuries the two Ideals of
these old centuries have confronted each
other. Today Zion and Oreece are
represented by two classes of people
who look with suspicion upon one an
other, each proud and self sufficient,
looking upon the other with anger or
distrust or ridicule. Who are the sons
of Zion In these days? The sons of
Zion are the people who write the word
Duty with a big TV
"They have sensitive consciences.
Their great concern Is to do God's will.
Now the sons of Zion have discovered
thst in the great strugrle toward a
righteous life there are great 'enemies
to be overcome, named pride and greed
and sensuality and selfishness. These
contest the way that leads towsrd the
place of holiness. Therefore every son
of Zion finds his time must be largely
given to struggling with these enemies.
He must slay them, else life Itself will
be In Jeopardy.
A Heart-Cry from lion.
"Again and again the cry escapes
from his lipe, 0 Lord, let them not
hsve dominion over me.' This son of
Zion comes to love certain books. He
pores over such a book as the 'Imitation
of Christ,' by Thomas A. Kempls, the
sweet poems In which ssplrlng souls
have expressed their longings and de
scribed their visions.

of the old book we call the Bible, which
recounts ths struggles and the victories
of ths prophets aad the great preachers
of righteousness. He has certain heroes
They are the reformers of all ages, the
Bavonarolas, the Oliver Cromwells, tne
Martin Luthers, the John Knoxes. What
magnificent men they were. To what
high purpose they lived. How the heart
stirs with admiration as one reads of
their courage and their loyalty to prln
clple. The son of Zion regards it ai
his great task to help make the world
a righteous world. Therefore he is al
ways fighting the battles of righteous
ness. Ha cannot remain silent when
evils are prevailing. He must engage In
the conflict and to him there Is no
keener Joy thsn to see the black hosts
of sin put to flight and the whits army
of righteousness in possession of the
field.
"And who are the sons of Oreece T We
call thorn the disciples of culture. They
believe that our powers havs been given
to use; that while man has a conscience
he slso has an Imagination; that while
he has a soul he also has a body; and
that his Intellect was given him to be
trained and brought to its highest ef
flclency. The son of Oreece finds that
he has certain powers, therefore, of body
and mind that need to be cultivated, and
he sots before himself the task of train
ing his powers. What a tremendous
task it is. and what giant enemies must
be overcome before he can hope to reach
the place for which he longs! And the
greatest of these enemies is Ignorance.
This son of Qreeco soon discovers that
certain books possess a peculiar fascina
tion, for him the writings of the great
poets. Homer, Dante, Virgil, Shakes-
Lpeare, Tennyson. He delights In every-
tning toai is dwuiuui. m iuvw iu
wander through art galleries and study
the canvases of the great masters. His
soul Is thrilled as he listens to fine
music, and he can sit for sn entire after
noon looking out on the ocean watching
the changing colors snd listening to the
deep diapason of the surges againat the
shore.
Struggle Against Evil.
What an impressive sight is a schol
ar a genuine scnoiar aevotea utterly
to some special field of knowledge and
giving up all lower pleasures In order
that he may have the rare Joy of easy
familiarity with some phase of learning.
Mark Rutherford tells most Interestingly
bow he shook off the grip of strong
drink which had fastened upon him.
One day he awakened to the fact that
he 3 had come under the spell of
the drink demon. He resolved
that he would never take a glasa
of liquor except at night. nut
he soon discovered that the days only
existed for the, sake of the nights. What
should he do to get away from his re
lentless enemy? Ho was eagerly Inter
ested In Intellectual pursuits, and he de
termined to array his love of letters
against his love of drink. And that he
did. with the result mat nis love 01 let
ters drove away the more Ignoble love
and he was left free. That was fine
was it nott A man devoted to intellect
ual pursuits snd delighting in the noble
pleasures of the mind rather than the
degrading pleasures of the body. Thus
you see the son of Greece lives in a
world peoularly his own. Hs has cer
tain Ideals, struggles, peculiar to him
self Joys that are rich and ennobling.
"These two forces are on the -fleh) to
day looking at one another with sus
picion and irritation. Each scorns the
other. Each feels that the other is half
a barbarian. Each would be glad to
see the other put to confusion. The
sons of Zion scorn the sons of Greece.
Why? The man of righteousness has
little patience with the man who spends
precious time looking at pictures and
reading poems. It seems such a waste
of time when there is so much hard
work to be done, so many battles to be
fought To spend one's time In study
ing art aeema to the man Of righteous
ness aa wicked aa for soldiers, when
their comrades are falling by hundreds,
to laugh and carouse. The man of
righteousness scorns the man who talks
of culture because of his absorption in
things that are only material. Jhn said.
Love not the world nor the things or tne
world. If any man love the world, the
-love of the Father la not In him. For
all that la In the world, the lust of the
flesh and the lust of the eyes and the
pride of life Is not of the Father.' The
son of Zion Insists thst the son of Oreece
Is doing this very thing. He is loving
the world and the things in It He be
comes proud and arrogant and selfish.
'With what disdain the ordinary re
turning traveler looks upon those poor
mortals who have never passed the
boundaries of the commonwealth In
which they were born. He has been to
Italy and can talk of art galleries by
the hour. He has promenaded the gay
boulevards of Paris, and the mere recol
lection of It gives hire a feeling of su
periority. He can talk familiarly of
Switzerland and London and his trip
across the Atlantic. Ah. me! how wise
and superior and vain he is' The dis
ciple of culture has wealth. He has a
country estate with spacious grounds, an
elegant house ndorned with all that
money can furnish costly paintings,
rare curiosities, the latest books.
Selfishness o Oreece.
"How he enjoys withdrawing to this
snug place and feasting his eyes on the
beautiful things of nature and art! The
city which he has left behind may suf
fer and weep and sin. He does not think
of that It Is nothing to him. He does
not care even to mingle with the social
world. He does not like to be with peo
ple at all. He prefera flowers and books
and rugs. And thus thin man's selfish
ness becomes stonier with every passing
day.
"There Is another Item In the Indict
ment of the son of Zion against the son
of Oreece. This lover of righteousness
has discovered that the people who are
ao Infatuated with pictures and books
are frequently people devoid of princi
ple. They rave over a painting or an
opera, and then regard It aa the proper
thing to go out and play golf on Sunday.
Beer and music somehow seem to go to
gether in the minds of some people. An
artist with long locks, whether he paints
or plays the piano, la entitled to as
many wives as he chooses, even though

he la -not married to any of them.
Genius, In other words, la a thing quits
outside the world of morale, of responsi
bilities, in which the rest of us poor
mortals must walk. Goethe was perhaps
as great a lover of culture as the world
has known. He mads It the great aim of
his life to develop every capacity of
mind and body. And when he lay on
his deathbed the last words that fell
from his lips were. More light, more
light!' And yet who can read the love
affairs of Goethe without a flush of em
barrassment coming to his face?
"Did you ever hear the story -of
Oeorge Romney, the celebrated portrait
painter? He went to London, leaving
his wife and two children In Lan
cashire. Pame came to him and
fortune. He became the moat fashion
able portrait palntsr of. the. day. But
during the SI years of his career in Lon
don he never sent for his wife. He had
been told that marriage spoiled art and
he was ashamed to Introduce his wife to
the fashionable set In which he had
found a place. And then when old age
came and he became helpless, he crawled
back and the wtfe forgave htm and
cared for him until he died. That man
wan right who said that the quiet act
of the deserted wife was worth more
than all the pictures George Romney
ever painted. Thus you see the son of
Zion has a pretty strong case against
the son of Greece.
But we must allow the, other to be
heard. He has something to say. He
has an arraignment to make that we
dare not put hastily aside. The lover
of culture Insists that the man of
righteousness mutilates life', that he
Ignores some of the most glorious
powers with which the Creator has en
dowed htm; thst he, too. Is prbud and
arrogant and selfish. Let us see. In last
week's Issue of the Chicago "Interior
an old friend oNmlne tells the story of
k hunting expedition in Missouri. Far
from the haunts of men in an old oabln
he found a family composed of children
dogs, cats, father and an old mother.
who was seated before an ancient stove
with a pipe in her mouth and a huge
Bible on her lap. .She Informed the
stranger that a certain cousin named
Johnny had been converted, but she was
doubtful of his sincerity. It seems that
Johnny had been a great lover of the
fiddle. He had played on It morning,
noon and night. When ha went to the
Held to plow he would hang his fiddle
around his neck so that when he reached
the end of a furrow, while the mule was
resting he might sit on s stone and play
his fiddle. When the lad got religion.
they told him he must give up the
fiddle. So the precious thing was hung
up on the wall, and he had not touched
It since. But, said the womsn with the
pipe In her mouth and the Bible on her
lap: 'I was over there yesterday and
there sat that boy. He didn't say any
thing, but he Just kept looking up at that
fiddle, a lookln and a lookln' Just as
if he loved It as much as ever. I asked
him about it, and he said, yes, he'd give
It up, but he said It slow like, aa If he
wasn't resigned. That's why I can't help
but believe he ain't genuinely, plumb
converted.'
Mutilating litres.
"The lover of music listens to that and
he lifts his bsnds In horror. Why this
Is a tragedy. Here la a lad who perhaps
has within him the fire of genius. God
has placed It there. And here comes a
harsh, narrow, dogmatic religionist and
says, 'Tour love for music is sinful.
Tou must turn from It as you would
turn sway from satan himself.' Tauler
the German mystic, used to pull his cap
down over his eyes as be walked in the
fields so that the violets" might not dis
tract his attention from his plods medi
tations. The lover of nature reads that
and he cries out with Indignation, 'How
Idiotic for a man who haa within him a
lore of the beautiful, thug to mutilate
his life and to think he Is honoring God
by thus despising the works of God.
"One of the best known lovers of cul
ture during the past 100 years was
Matthew Arnold. The sons of Zion
were repulsive to him. He lived In a
world of letters. His heroes were Dante
and Raphael and tha like. He once ex
pressed the hostility between the sons
of Oreece, of whom he wss one, and the
sons of Zion, by nsklng his readers to
Imagine Shakespeare and Virgil on
board the Mayflower and Intimating that
they would be atrange fellow travelers
with the Pilgrim Fathers the poets,
happy, far sweeping In their vision, in
terested in all that pertalna to man; the
Pilgrims stern, taking little Interest In
the world about them, lost In medita
tion of the law of God. Thus you see
the son of Oreece Is able to make a
strong cane against the son of Zion.
" 'And i the Lord shall be seen over
them.' The Lord who is Father of both
la over them; the Lord who hath made
of one blood all nations of men to dwell
on all the face of the earth. God never
Intended that people Interested in higher
things of life should thus be arrayed
against one another The well rounded
life needs those things for which the
man of culture stands, and It needs
those things for which Uie man of
righteousness stands. The life that la
only righteous is after all only a poor
half astarved life. The Bible says so.
Be not righteous overmuch," the psalm
ist says, and I think Paul was getting
near the aame thought when he said,
'Let not your good be evil spoken of.'
Culture la the Pulpit.
'There Is now In this country an Eng
lish preacher Who the other day. In
speaking of the next revival said. Whet
la now needed is a presentation of the
gospel by men of greater culture than
those of the past Too often evangelists
sre Ignorant men who disgust people of
Intelligence. They show no familiarity
with history or science or sociology.
Thoughful men will not listen to them.'
What la needed, said the Englishman, la
a setting forth f the old truths with not
less fervor nor fidelity, but with greater
intellectual power snd scholary attrac
tiveness. The life thst is only artistic
and aesthetic la after all only a super
ficial snd partial life. A recent writer

who hold the only true views about wall
paper and oriental rugs. A mere knowl
edge of art will never make up for Ignor
ance of the commandments. A love for

the place of an appreciation of the
beauty of holiness. That culture that
leaves out Ood, that looks upon religion
condescendingly and studies a saint with-
some such Interest as It would a piece
of bric-a-brac, is no culture at all. It
la only snobbishness and prlggishness of
the very worst sort Culture needs
righteousness to give it solidity and
strength. Righteousness needs culture

It possible for the two to be brought to
gether into a well rounded, strong, beau
tiful life? Listen now. Righteousness
was represented oy the Jew to whom
Ood had said: Thou shalt not steal,
thou shalt not kill.' Culture was repre
sented by the Oreekr -whose wise men
had said: Thou shalt love the sea snd
the sky, the songs of the poets and the
visions of the artists.' But behold, a
third has appeared. He la neither one
of the sons of Greece, nor one of- the
sons of Zion. And yet he is both, for
he is Bon of Man. He stands for righte
ousness as the Jew did. for it was bis
meat and drink to do the Heavenly
Father's 'will. He stands for beauty, life
and Joy as the Greek did. for he talked
of birds and flowers. He entered into
the Innocent pleasures of a marriage
feast. He said, 'I have come thst ye
might have life and that ye might have
it more abundantly.' He who catches
the real spirit of the son of man, will
have all the strength of a son of Zion
and all the graces of a son of Oreece.

London, Dec. 6. London shopkeepers
are anything but hopeful over the out
look for the holiday trade this year.
Tha general depression throughout the
country Is regarded aa the worat In
many years. Not since ths great dock
strikes haa the metropolis seen so many
unemployed workmen. The effect of
the bad times extends to the humblest
ranks of industry. The prospects for
the winter are particularly bad in the
building world and the riverside and
shipping business.
Under normal conditions the west
end shops would now be filling with
Chrlatmaa buyers. But the real holi
day rush haa failed to materallse as
yet and the shopkeepers view the con
ditions with a pessimistic sye. The
railways likewise anticipate a great
falling off In holiday travel this year.
Only In the topmost ranks of society
Is It expected that Chrlatmaa this year
will be observed without any curtail
ment In the exchange of gifts and the
usual feasting and entertainment. The
king and queen of Portugal bought a
number of Christmas presents while
they were In London, chiefly diamond
studded bonbonnleres, flat pencil cases-

and cigarette holders made of delicately

studded with diamonds or encrusted
with tiny emeralds or rubles.

received by a number of the royal
warrant holders. Tha instructions to
the shop keepers are to lay down the
class of goods that her majesty wishes
to be sent, but ample latitude is allowed
In this matter. Mention Is made of the
day when they should reach Buckingham
palace, and meantime the ahop keeper
selects his choicest wares.
In charge of some responsible mem
bers of the firm these are duly taken to
the palace, where rooma are assigned
for their display. Aa many tables as
are needed are available to set them out
In their most attractive array, and every
item Is labeled with the name of the
shop that Is sending It, as well as the
price, which must not be a "fancy" one,
but the ordinary selling retail value.
Her majesty spends considerable time
In selecting her gifts, and some days
will probably elapse before the shops
sre summoned to remove what will not
be required.
Jewelry and stiver work always figure
.largely In the collections placed before
the queen. In occasional instances,
very rich and costly ornaments sre
chosen, but more generally her majesty
looks for fanciful grace of design and
dainty novelty. Photographic framee
of the most dainty and delicate descrip
tion are favorite gifts of the queen.
Brooches for lace, charming little
pendants snd fascinating bangles are
other favorite forms, in diamonds,
pearls and other stones. A large num
ber of plna and links, too. are In
variably kept by the queen, whose aim
Is always to give what will afford a
real and lasting plessure to Its recipient.
Presents Characteristic.
In sending to Denmark or other
courts, the queen usually chooses what
la characteristically English, while to
her English friends a very favorite form
of present with her majesty Is that of
pottery from the royal works at Copen
hagen. In the selection of gifts she Is
slso a marked patron of the several
societies formed for the encouragement
of home Industries, Including those of
Scotland and Ireland.
The equipment of the boudoir or sftidy
writing table gives her majesty a wide
range of charming little Items, and
clocks are also frequently chosen In
some quaint aettlng.
Queen Alexandra retains the kindly1
custom Initiate! by Queen Victoria of
giving presents to all the servants of
the royal establishment. These sre al
ways of useful character, a very favor
ite one for the upper servants being a
dress length of good silk, either In color
or black. Toys, too, enter largely Into
the queen's list, and the Immediate
pleasure of her grandchildren Is an
especlsl source of delight to her majesty.
