Rev. Hirarn - Vrooman Says
Worry and Regret "Are Wholly

(.. .
Rev. Hiram Vrooman last night dis
cussed the effect of religion upon the
work and life -of man In a sermon de-
llvered before the congrsgallan of ,1he
Swedenborgtan . church, . now holding
eervives in the Knights of Pythias ball.
Alder and Eleventh street a. In dlscuaa-
Ing the -question, .the speaker said, in
part: '. . ' .' .. . f .
worry, and waxte their mental energies
In regretting -the oeeulngr mistakes of
thelr-past the Christian religion, baa
some truths of consolation to give.'
-In the flrst place, the truly religious
person Is not only willing, but anxious,
to obey the rails of duty even at the
coat cf great seir-soerlnce. He who1 naa
not so mastered his will aa to be thor
oughly loyal to duty. a a guiding prin
ciple throughout Ufa has yet to be born
again. ,'.-....'. ; ,'
If a roan's will Is so perversa and
i irreligious wui lie iookm upon amy
W'"'"LJ",t'r then the mistakes a
I . u.-j. . ..jh;i-
Irreligious that he looks upon duty as a
md
blunders of that man are a sufficient
cause for the deepest and most sorrow
ful kind of regrets. . '
But If the will ia trained. to respond
to the calls of duty with unhesitating
obedience, then that man should never
ai.ow himself to regret any mlatakea of
judgment whatsoever. -"'
"Mistaken and blunders In life that
are due to an Imperfect Judgment and
to lack of Information are entirely dif
ferent, viewed from the spiritual -standpoint
as different as white Is from
black from those other, mlstakea and
blunders wbioh are - due to selfish un
willingness to obey : the. demands . of
duty.:. - " '. . - - "
If a ftiaas will Is right tn Its rela
tion to duty he Is always going to sot
as wisely as he can under his circum
stances going to do the beat he can.
And who amonc mortals ran do. mere
than thlsT And when the best that can
be done under the circumstances la
done and seemingly evil consequences
resuit therefrom, what idiocy and waste
It is to regret: Kegrets under such
circumstances are equivalent to r-grat
ing that one did the best he could. .
' When mistakes .have resulted from
our best snd stneerest and moat con
scientious endeavors, then we meet the
situation where we are called upon to
place truat in the Lord's divine provi
dence. '" " . ' '
There Is a spiritual law of protec
tion which" emanatea from-the -divine
providence of the Ird, which . guaran
tees aplrltual aafety to every man whose
will Is rightly determined toward duty;
and tola notwithstanding., any . defects
that there may be in the man;a judg
ment or personal .temperament .
"When the true patriot Is wounded In
battle does he regrat having enlisted?
Patriotism prevents such regret. . He
accepts with brave heart whatever for
tune or misfortune that fulls to his lot.
Likewise the follower of Jeeus Christ,
the follower of the calls of duty, when
he receives the wounds of mlsrepresen-l

"Sheriff Stevens is not doing the
square thing by St. Johns. says' W. I
Thorndyke. city recorder and municipal
Judge. "St. Johns should have a aeputy
sheriff and all the offlclala -of this
ne eskeil of the elierlff that he
appoint a deputy In BL Johns without
pay and be haa absolutely refused to do
anything for our neea. - ?
Chief of Polios Bredeson stated that
Whenever a crime la -committed or If
any one Is wsnted In St. Johns to ap
pear before the court he can easily go
to the river get a small boat and soon
be out of Jurisdiction altogether and
the court ia helpless. ..- . -t
.. It la slso stated by the officials that
there are other-deputlee appointed In. the
county with pay where their dnuea are
not so necessary ss they are al. at.
Johns at times. . Judge Thornayse cited
the case of last Saturday where an Im
portant assault and battery case was
to have been tried and in wmcn w
chief . witness suddenly betook himself
to Linnton. causing the dismissal of the
case.
City Attorney Oreene repeated "The
sheriff Is unfair to St. Johns." Judge
Thorndvke added: ."It Is true that St.
Johns went against the -snenir last
June but we think that ' that Is small
grounds for this discrimination against
our town and we might say that the
sheriff may ask for a reelection some
day."
Attorney Greene thinks that a' deputy
district ' attorney should ' be appointed
also for Bt. Johns and says thst he
haa asked severs! times for thte favorl
for bla, town but District Attorney Uu'
ning has failed to comply. 1
"livery time that the atate has nad
a case in St. Johns." says Attorney
Greens. "Mr. Manning baa asked Judge
Thorndyke to appoint an attorney' ao
that he would not have to appear and
prosecute the case. ' This' always causes
some inconvenience, but I can say that
the state has never lost a case In Bt
Johns." ;,; j, 4, , ; y t -j.-'

Judge Olson of the eaat side justtoe
court waa called upon to officiate at a
wedding. Saturday aftarnooa. The. bride j
waa Miss Laura, mcuowcu. wnoee noma
Is In McMlnnvllle. and the groom, Harry
S. Franks, a bookkeeper, who glvea New
Tbrk aa bis home. . " '
The judge says that the average num
ber ot weddings In his office run from
sis to eight a month, so that He Is used
to being called from the bench to make
some couple bsppy. All the preparation-
be makes is to flick a few stray
specka of dest from his shoulder., re
arrange bis golden locks and then nerve
up and walk Into the sanctum where
these ceremonies -are-wont - to be, held
with an added air of dignity ao as to
impress the couple with the Importance
of the step they are about to make. ..

"Tn" whatever community of the east
side that there Is a dormant or Inactive
Improvement association, an awakening
Is in progress. Ths whole . over-river
district seems to be wsking and work
ing Yor a greater east side. .Other dis
tricts that have not had such -.an or
ganisation previously are organising as
fast as -possible. '. Recently the- North
eastern association organised and will
work for the Vernon and Highland aeo
tlona and all the district lying east of
the north end of Union avenue. - And
now It Is announced that ths-property
ownere and business men along East
Burnside and tributary streets will bold
a meeting this week, and organise a
push club for their territory. Very, few
districts are now without a progressive
organisation of soma character. If the
work goea on every street will have Its
Own appointed push club for ttsrown tm
provement. . " ' - :
St. Johns Is spreading and gradually
utilising the brush-covered-territory
surrounding it for more homes. -M. Lb
Holbrook announces that he will open a
tract in what Is known aa Eaat St.
Johns soon. The oar Una rnna through
the location and It is one of the most
desirable ' residence districts of this
faatly growing section of the peninsula.
This station has been always known
heretofore aa Brolth'e crossing, but that
name Is now obselete and the streetcar
conductors will soon cesso to call
Smith's Crossing and will aubstltuts the
more- appropriate name of East St.
Johns. ; - '.' - "'' - '
Another Improvement thst Mr. Hol
brook Is now working for Is the exten
sion of the work recently put In . on
Columbia boulevard as far as East 81
Johns: . This thoroughfare has - been
graveled this far, but it .Is "Mr; Hoi
brook's plan to have It graveled te
where It connects with Willamette and
Linnton boulevards, completing an Ideal
set of drives about St. Johns. . ' A peti
tion, is. now being circulated for this
purpose and the- work will perhaps be
expedited as soon as . possible. Hol

Ing Friday evening started a vigorous
