The Cure of
Souls," taking the two texts "No man
careth for my soul," Psalms 142:1, and
"I seek not yours but you,"t .COrln
thlana. 12:14. Dr. Foulkes said tn part:
"My text Is a complaint and an
answer, a challenge and a response.
It is the sob of soul-loneliness checked
by the assurance of soul-fellowship.
It is the minor chord of human misery
hushed In the "C major of Chrlstlanllke
sympathy.
" 'No man careth for my soul Is
neither a motto nor an epigram. It
is the bitter epitaph which, uninspired
the human race Is carving on its tomb
stone before It dies. It Is the recog
nition of its mutual woes, the ac
knowledgement of Its spiritual bank
ruptcy, the confession of Its common
guilt.
"The spiritual unrest of the multi
tude is no occasion for panic in the
church. The Imperishable wants of the
linmiin rntTA v41l aIw&vb reassert them
selves. Hungry souls will never be
wennMH from e&tinr husks except by
being given bread; denunciation of sin
without presenting the sin-bearer;
tongue laahlng of worldllness without
Riving that "hidden manna' on which
alone other-worldlrnass Is fed. will
never avail. Not alone will men laugh
to scorn the dlletante church but her
lord will call her to a certain reckoning
when she forsakes the. cure . souls.
Lengthening of Odtds.
"I" have no censure for the church
which lengthens her cords to include
civic righteousness within her tents.
How dare the body of Christ be less
than acutely sensitive to that which
exalts a nation? When she fails to
preach and practice righteousness, let
her be smitten with spiritual paralysis
and let her be shunned as a moral
leper.
"Yet there is a task .and a high. call
ing to whose fulfillment she must
above all, devote herself to be the
cure of sln-slck, sorrow-smitten, care
worn souls, to provide gnirltual cleans
ing for the defilement sin has wrought,
to pour the balm of Oilead upon
bruised hearts, This is her mission,
this the fellowship of service and
suffering In which she walks closest
to her lord.
"May I admonish her through you,
! her members, that she must be the
cure of souls because there is no other.
The philosophies of the day are big
with promise for the perfection of the
universe. Political parties vie with
each other in presenting the Issues of
the day, each alike timorous lent to
morrow's achievement shall make
obsolete today's record. But between
the cosmic theories which embrace the
universe, and political promises which
provide for a passing day, the souls or
men are ground as between- -the upper
and nether mill stones.
Talus of Club X4S.
"For example, take our modern club
and lodge life. I speak not an an out
sider but as an Insider, not as an
Inimical to either but friendly to both.
Neither, I am Wot abashed to 'say, Is.
hopes to be, or can be, a cure for souls.
By common consent, such a mission Is
tabooed. The care of the body, the
cultivation of social Instincts, even the
exercise of human sympathy, these
things arc done, and well done.
"put the recognition of the eternal
value of souls and the passion for their
healing must burn in the heart of some
other Institution than a lodge or a club,
whose terms of membership are fitness
and congeniality, rather than common
spiritual need. So, not only because
the souls of men need a cure and the
compassfonate savior of men has en
trusted the remedy to her. but- because
there is no other healing for the hurts
of the soul, must the church surrender
herself to her mission,
"The gospel message is as new as
life and as old as eternity. It is be
gotten but not created, coeval with
the love of God. It Is Ood's best
thought for men. his tenderest love,
his omnipotent purpose accentuated Into
life and revealed tc conscious experi
ence. It is simple enough for a child.
and too deep for an archangel. It Is
pertinent to the needH of tpday and Is
the key to the mysteries of forever and
a day.
"The church's sphere for the cure of
eoula does not center about a message
but rather revolves In an eclipse about
the two foci, message and ministry.
With either lacking or obscured the
church-will lose her Identity and the
world her cure orTgouls.

Bishop n-ll Predicts Great Change In
Industrial Conditions.
Bishop William M. Bell preached on
the problem of social unrest at the
First United Brethren Church yeator
dy morning, in which he commended
t lie) growing Independence of the Amir
lean voter and declared that the exac
lions of predatory wealth will he
remedied within the next 16 years,
either by adjustment and regulation or
ii y revolution. Bishop Bell slso an
iiotinced the appointment of ministers
for the Portlsnd d strict for 1908-09.
The spesker said that the preacheru
musi give a message or reuer ror con
dltions of unrest. With 7,000,000 men
out of employment with child labor In
ine lactones, ana weaun concentrated,
there must come an adjustment ol con
ditlons. He continued:
"In America there will be a revolu
(Ion within 16 years unless there be a
change ror the better, witnin that time
we shajl come to a great crisis. We
see it demonstrated In the disintegra
tion or political lines and the breaking
up or political parties, una great tn
Mora of our Journals may become cross
over the fact that men will no longer
vole together as so many sheep. The
bosses may grumble over the lndeper.d
ence of the hour. The editor or politi
cian must respect the trend of affairs
or be unhorsed ana coverea under a
moss-grown tomb.
"I do not expect revolution, but it
may dome. Evolution sometimes brings
results, but the people will not wait
long for results through the slow pro
cesses of evolution and themselves set
things in motion. Readjustment may
come through knocks and Jars. Some
times we have the electric storm that
upheaves and kills, but It brings read
justments in the atmosphere, and so
our readjustment may come this way."
Bishop Bell said that one tidal wave
swept slavery away, another Is sweep
ing the liquor traffic from the country.
and a third Is thundering at the wills
of corporate (treed and predatory wealth.
The corporations must yield to law, he
said, for the moral sense of the na
tion Is aroused and the demand will
not abate.
In the afternoon Bishop Bell dedi
cated the Second United Brethren
church at Kast Twenty-seventh and Mil

by Bishop Castle and Dr. W. R. Funk.

JOSEPH SMltrT, PROPHET.
Mormon Leader Tells Followers of
His Divine Authority,
Joseph F. Smith of Salt Lake, head
of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter
Day Saints, delivered an address yes
terday to the members of the church
In Portland at the Woodmen of the
World hall. Addresses were also made
by. First Councellor John R. Winder
Patriarch John Smith, Presiding Bishop
C. W. Nlbley and George A. Smith, onj
of the 12 apostles of the church.
President Smith In his address held
that divine authority was necessary in
the administration of the church. He
said that truth was essential to tlie
happiness and progress of men but that
the truth can only be administered by
divine authority when it has to do with
the plan of life.
The speaker contended that the divine
authority was given to the prophet
Joseph Smith Just as it was to the
ancient prophets whose works are re
countelln the Bible. It made no dif
ference, he said, whether men believe 1
in the truth of the statement still It
was a fat and this authority was for
the use of the followers of the Mor
mon church.

of people who had liberty, but so little

of liberty that outward freedom was
Inward bondage.
