THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL. PORTLAND. MONDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 19,, 1903. If LOVE AND LOVERS Dr. Brougher Gives interesting Sermon for Guidance of Those In Love. : SAYS TRUE LOVE IS NOT BACKWARD OR ASHAMED Person Who Lovci Cannot Help but . Tell It, Declares White Temple Paator to Audience Which Fills the Big Church. ;,' , "Lov" was th subject of Rev. J. Whltcomb Brougher at tha Whit Ttmili last evening. He Mid in part: , "Tha arra teat word in human lan . iiiim, la the -word 'lov,' It (a -the greatest word to be found in tba Blblt, . next to th word Ood. Lovo la tha mightiest motlv powar in tha world. It waa lovo that moved Ood Almighty -to wvar"nrmsirma- owrTttrer.-ir waa love that sent Jesus Christ from his homo in aiorr fo suffer and die for a, loat world. . Every act in hie Ufa la - exnlalned by' tha word lova. Tha Apostle Paul declares lova to ba the arraatest ' thine In tha world.' To aMdeth faith, hope and lova, but tba srreateat of theaa la lova.'. "If you lova a person sincerely and truly, that person will find it out. - Tou will either tell Mm or aomenoay eise. Lova will never be ashamed of tha ob ject loved. When the woman bowed at - tha- feet -of Jeaua to-expree her- love for what he- had done for her, th Pharisees and those who Were gathered at tha table sneered both at-tier and at - Christ. But lova will never stop for .criticism. Whan Mary broke tha ala - beater bos and anointed her Savior, the disciples themselves declared that tha money ought to have Deen saved ana given to tha poor: but Jesus defended her from the cruel, harsh criticism of the unsympathetlo. "There la Uttl danger ' that anyone ' will confess lovo for Jeaua Christ who really haan't any. But on tha other hand, tha man or woman who claims to love Jeaua Christ and then la shamed to tall It and to oonteee It. it ia a good , alga that they really have no geauine lova for him. Lova Is bound to hnJ ex pression. - , ; ; ...... Will rial Sspresaloa. "Love Will And expression in seeking the company of tha person loved. Those who lova each other ilka te be together. Thta la tha fundamental principle which underlies the home. Two young people fall In lova. They enjoy tha company of each other. They conoluda that th height of their happlneaa would be reached If they could have tha exclusive company of each other for life. "Lova will find expression1 in seeking to - know tha will of tha person loved. Jeaua said, 'If ya love me, ye will keep toy commandments. Thia statement is based upon tha fact that lovera aeek to know the desires of each other. They want to please each other. In order to do It, they must know the desires of one another. How eagerly a, love letter la read In order to find out the ex pre seed wishes and desire of the lover writing the letter. How anxious the real lover isb please, and In doing so, J tion. However, we believe it la poe na aaeks to know Just what would be pleasing to tha one he loves, .. "Love will find expression In obedi ence to the will of tha' person loved. This Is the ultimate test of love. When we know the desires of our loved ones and believe them to be right, then we will hasten If within our power to obey and f ulflll" "those wishes. Love " will serve -the object loved In spite of all opposition. "Again, love will serve the object laved when It must auffee tar it. .. Tha self . sacrifice of love is - proverbial. Jesus Christ waa willing to suffer and to die that he might save , alnful world that he 'loved . Love knows no opposition 'or difficulty to which It will yield. It will live foi the object loved. It will die for the object loved." BLAMES OFFICIALS Pr, word, molda Plstrlot Attorneys Ba- sponsible for the Whitney sCurder. That a hop field la a dangerous place for young people to meet, and that the district attorneys of Multnomah and Marion are morallj .responsible for the killing of Lincoln Whitney by a 8. Murray were the conclusions reached by Kuv. T. B. Ford, pastor of the Sunnyslde Methodist church. In his sermon last evening. "Frequently hop fields are the gath ering places of the. very worst of char acters," aald he. "They fall In love a serious matter under any " circum stances. Too often Is the tender pas slon trifled with, usually with sad re- witrw twtn lovera."' The" visited the home of the young man. a most unwise and dangerous act on her part. They became engaged and Inti mate relatione were entered Into which la usually fatal to true love. Toung women, let me say to you tonight, be reserved, maintain your dignity at all tlmea, even if you die an old maid. and never tolerate liberties. Dr. Ford than deacrlhed the end of the, hop field romance and told of the killing of Whitney by th ruined girl's brother. . ' "When appealed to, the district at torneys ..gave scant sympathy, if . any, and no 'encouragement at all, though they wer put into office to enforce the law. The' ruin of th girl waa a crime that they should have Inquired into and righted, so far as lay In their power. Th promise of marriage is often made - for unlawful ends, and a crime la committed when that end is attained, even under promise of mar riage." Dr. Ford concluded by saying that, in his opinion, Murray ahould be pun ished, aa one crime doea not excuse another. slble, without much difficulty, to unite; the ... various branches of the same denomination into one organic whole.

TATTrTlNTR OORESSf CHURCH UNION BT. lu Smith Discusses ft In All ; Ita Fhases. - At th First - Evangelical church. East Sherman and Tenth streets, laat evening. Rev. A. A. Winter addressed his flock on the necessity of the al liance of evangelical congregations. The pastor was a delegate to the gen eral conference of his church at Cedar Rapids, Iowa, last month, and his ad dress waa based on his observations at that meeting. After dwelling at length on the federation of churches and voicing the opinion that there would- never be a complete organlo union except in certain churches, he said In part: "Aa to the feasibility and adriaa btlttyof organlo vmloaofjajinany, of these churches," we do not feel called upon to speak.

Church, Dr. -Clarence True- Wllaon preached an eloquent sermon at Orace Methodist church lust night on "Faith In Prog ress." In developing bis subject he said: 'Ther Is a romance in. tha. life of the sailor, the explorer and of.the mountain-climber which Is commensurate only with the peril incurred, and the In fatuation is Intensified aa th peril la augmented. , Burn natures are eonetltu tional heroes; they are such stuff aa martyrs are made or, fit for th lead' era of society, the conquerors of the world.

W have all seen a Christian upon whom a cloudburst of trouble came; but, main taining his faith in God, like Job. he ex claimed: Though he slay me. yet will I trust him.' And he found that faith la assurance of things hoped for, a con viction of thlnga not aeen. To the faithful Christian, troubles and temp tations are like mists they gather with the clouds, sweep over us in storms, and then pass away Imperceptibly Into mists again. - In thia conviction and assurance many a Christian has weathered a stormy day and at night retired to aleep the Bleep of lnnoceaca, lulled by the soughing of the western wind and watched uy tha stars, God's guardian angels, that looked with their whit faces out of a cloudless autumn sky." Miss Ethel Lytle sang the offertory. and a choir of 14 male voice rendered a number of selections. - THINGS THAT ABIDE A Modern : Trust Company- -,--iThat is conservative in its methods U an im portant factor in the business life and develbp- ment of any community. -Its scope is broadr and service effective.
