and protest against this degradation of
Ufa. Things can never constitute a life.
No circumstances or environment or
bodily condition should affect or defeat
the triumphs of life and being.
"Jesus lived like Ood himself, al
though a whole world waa arrayed
. against him. To Christ the crime of
"... wealth, the pity of poverty, the cruelty
of power, the heartlessness of society

First Christian Congregation
cusses Feasibility of Idea.
Rev. E. S Muckley. dlncusaed "Is a
Cntbn of All Christian Denominations
Deatrable?" with the congregation at
the First Christian church last evening,
nd the Idea waa received favorably.
Rev. Muckley said In part with refer
ence to unity:
I apprehend tnat a union or tne dif
ferent branches of the Protestant church
will first be affected. The Cumberland
Presbyterians and the Northern Presby
terians have already united. It remains
for the Methodists to unite and for the
different branches of the Baptist
church to enter upon unity of action, as
well as the various branches of the
Congregatlonalists. Thla union of the
Christian denominations cannot be
brought about under a human head. It
must be brought about under Jesus
Christ
"A number of things make such a
union desirable. Division has ever been
a causa of ill will and bitterness. Read
church history as far back as you like.
and you will see the unscrupulous meth
ods resorted to In order that some sect
might bring its particular ecclesiastical
notion of things Jflta prominence.
A man may or may not believe many
things, and yet be saved. I don't want
you to exercise any authority as to what
shall believe, net do I wish to bring
thority to bear uoon you to eomnel
youMo believe as t do. There are many
member of the Baptist church whose
ideas are- more nearly in accord with
my own than are some of the members
of my own church. We are all Christians."

and Princeton.
Dr. Jordan s call for tha Initial meet-
ng sava in part:
"Stanford has at one time or another
had students from all parts of the
worio. it is true tnat the roreigners
navo not availed themselves to the run
of the many advantages to be gained
tnrougn tne exchange or customs and
Institutions peculiar to their representa
tive countries. Nor has tha loss t been
confined to them alone, for the great
majority of American students have lost
the best opportunity, next to vlaltlng
the various countries themselves, to be
come better aoqualnted with soma parts
of the outside world, namely, by know
ing those persons who have spent the
greater part or their uvea there.
Provision wiU bo made for the ad
mission of a certain number of Amer
lean students, such number not to ex
ceed one third of the total membership.

Ood all glory. I believe thla to be the
r rolden mean occupied by Jesus Christ
n his ministrations while In the flesh.
and also that his church is appointed to
occupy the same relation to morally
and physically diseased humanity. In
the context Jesus healed a man'a son. It
was a supernatural work, a divine heal
ing, but not without the cooperation of
the natural man. the boy's father. So
Jesus mingled tha supernatural and the
natural to the saving of men's souls
and the healing of their bodies."

WORK FOR ITS EMPLOYED.
Walter Thomas Mills Says It Is the
Great National Question.
Walter Thomas Mills, editor of the
Seattle Saturday Evening Tribune, and
Socialist lecturer, spoke at the White
Temple laat night on 'The Church and
the Unemployed."
The speaker said that the "employ
ment of the unemployed Is of mora im
portance than the building of the
Panama canal, or the government own
ership of railroads, or the prosecution
of the grafters or the punishment of
corporation heads. He praised Mayor
Lane for having issued a call to the
Pacific coast mayors to meet and for
mulate a plan whereby another way of
dealing with the Question of the unem
ployed may be found than that of order
ing tnem to move on. He also scored
the Portland wood combine, and advo
cated a public woodyard.
"Drink is the one great enemy of the
laDonng man," said he. "Drink goes to
your head. Yours may be a very poor
neao lor tne wora you nave to do, but
my friends it is the only head you have.
so it will nay you to take care of It."
The speaker called attention to the re
cent discharge by the steel trust of
great numbers of men. "When the great
monopolies discharge men, the unem
ployed workers must beg or starve.
When such a state of things exists it Is
for the public to find work for the unemployed."
WHEN ONE IS READY.
Worry About This World, Not the
One to Come.
"Anythlnr that helns a man to rise
higher, to give his life in Its fullness,
is religion," aald Rev. Luther R. Dyott.
pastor of the First Congregational
church. In the course of his address be
fore the men's meeting at the Y. M c.
A. yesterday afternoon. He had chosen
the topic. "When One Is Ready," and
rave his attention particularly to the
mportance of better llvlne In the mun
dane world. It is not well to worry
about the world to come, he said, but

Lesson Drawn From Words of Sav
iour to Paul.
'The Purifying and Perfecting Power
of the Christ-Mind' was the theme of a
sermon delivered to the congregation of
the Divine Truth Center In the Alisky
building yesterday morning by Rsv. P.
J. Green. He took for hla text the
words of Paul to the PhlUIplans: "Let
this mind be in you which was also In
Christ Jesus."
He said: "In every soul there are
the germs of real greatness and beauty.
That this embryotlc greatness will only
be brought to birth by the right kind
of thinking and believing.
"The word thought clears up the text
much hotter than the word mind. Let
this Christ-thought be in you and actu
ate you. Thought is the Inspiration of
all our doing. Man will never rise
higher than his highest thought In
order to be like Christ, wa must think
and believe In our divinity, sonship and
oneness with the Father. Otherwise
we cannot 'Be perfect as our Father in
heaven is perfect'
"As long as we accuse ourselves of
being slnfujaj)d weak worms of the

puffed up by this thought but emptied
himself and became meek and lowly, the
servant of all, which is real greatness
and Godllkeness.
"Having through faith and repentance
cleansed our minds, let us go on to per

thought but having the same character

Illustrations of this from the insurance
