both morning and evening. Mr. Radec
baa left the active leadership of ths

In his Introductory sermon Mr. Radar
chose for ths subject of, his morolnw
sermon "The Church," and In It out
lined his beliefs and plans for tha fu
ture. Mr. Rader takes the stand that
ths church which Is crowded by people
gathered- together out of . curiosity will
not succeed. People should sttend
church from conviction and earnestness,
not from a desire to be smused. That
church which haa an earnest congrega
tion behind It will be the on that will
last rather than tha one that baa a

Presbyterian printing plant in that city,
addressed a large gathering at tha First
Presbyterian church last night. Tha
gifted speaker took for hla subject Tha
Mohammedan Missionary Problem or
the Eastern Question." He said In part:
"This subject haa offered many dif
ficulties to the American department
of state, and I believe that tha United
States will eventually be thrown Into
tha eastern question aa auddanly and
unexpectedly as she waa Into tha ques
tion relative to tha acquisition of ths

"In our college at Beirut wa have
large numbers of Moslsm. Jewish and
other boys, who are receiving a thor
ough education along Christian Unas.
Although they do not neceesarlly adopt
the religion of Chrlat yet this education
will go far In tha future to modify the
antagonism which haa caused ruptures
between tha Christian snd non-Christian
element In the Turkish empire. -
"Very few people realise that one
seventh of tha race Is of the Moham

belief which did not exlat at the time
of Chrlat that exists today. In .ne

United Brethren Pastor Calls
Rose of Liquor Interests.
Rev. H. C Shaffer of the. United
Brethren church. East - Fifteenth nd
East Morrison streets, took for hla sub
ject lsst nlsht. "High License.1 and
assumed a position diametrically -opposed
- to thst of a majority of . the
Portland mlnistsra. He pointedly crit
icised those who declared themselves
prohibitionists yet worked for tha adop
tion of a 11,000 license and said In
part: .
"I waa recently approached by a gen
tleman who asked ma to slan a petition
favoring high license. I told him that
no man who claimed to bo a follower
of Christ oould favor any kind of li
cense. He assured mathat tha Antl
Baloon league of Oregon waa ; behind
tha movement. I said to myself. 'No
wonder the league is going to pleoea.'J
xne same person 101a me inai me
Ministerial association also favored
high license. I knew that that wri not
true. - because I - sm Its secretary i ad
know Its workings.4- I wss then told
that I' should hlgn any wsy. because
it meant t cents to htm. This needs
no comment.
"The plea that the city needs the
money Is apparently tha basis for the
present demsnd for high license. But
the real faet la that tt.e liquor Inter
ests are alarmed a", tha growth of pro
hibition and ara trying to sidetrack the
people on tha hlgb license Issue." ,

pose! Destructive Higher Critics.
Rev. H. Wyse Jones, who spoke at ths
T. M. C A. , yesterday afternoon, toM
his audience that men who look for
comfort - in, other ' teachings . besides
Christianity are not only of no ass to
themselves, but are a curse to others.
Said he:
'Many scholars ara switching off to
some destructive criticism of the word
of Ood. They have discovered soms
great -teaching In -India or soma phlloa-
ophy from soma other country and set
that up as tha standard of living. Bib
lical criticism Is all right If It Is car
ried on properly, but I refer now to the
destructive criticism of the Bible. There
seems to be somebody always standing
on tha street corner with bis teaching
ready to turn tha feet out of the path
ofrtght to follow soma Joseph Smith,
soma Mrs. Eddy, or soma slate-writer.
These people who have gone off on
a tangent, on a sidetrack ao to speak,
ara of no. use to themselves and ara a
positive curse to others. Tha fraternal
order la another of the departures which
Is likely- to lead -away--from right,- -I
am not against the secret order, but I
am opposed to H In tha place of a man's
church home. There ara boats of man
today who substitute tha. fraternal or
der for tha church." .
