16 THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL. PORTLAND, MONDAY. . EVENING, FEBRUARY . 21, , 1910. R GHER ORDER OF LIFE REQUIRED uuld Rev- Luther Dyott Tells of De mands of Today in Inter 's, e'sting Sermon. "Our Sufficiency Is of C.oA." was the ubjott of an inlereHtinK Herman deliv ered at the First rem ft regional church - by Dr. I.uther R Dyott yostmrday morn ing. The speaker argued thiU the pres " nt day demands called for a higher or . dor of life than In times past. Stronger mn and women were needed. It Is Im possible for their demands to he met without reliance upon (Sod. Ijr. l'yott aid. In pnrt : "We are ll Iiir In an cxnc tlnK axe " The times press upon on with authorita tive demands. Some problems are con j nectt'd with all life upon eHrth. They helonc to everv (tenerfU Ion, slowly evolving and st rugjrl fiift up the slope "They were met by men and women In other asres. and we fare these same problems today, in a more or less aKra Vated condition. Other problems belong to a given age, possessed of certain dls tlncUve peculiarities. y "Our modern life Is mors complex than was the life of our fathers. The Inherent condition of' things today ad mit of more emergncles and exlgen clea. Everywhere our present tense clv- Illiatlon finds Itself frequently con fronted with sudden or unexpected oc currences and conditions, calling for Immediate action. Perplexing- Combination. "Now and again a perplexing and , pressing combination of circumstances may be found requiring prompt remedy, relief or help. So alao it i.s with in - dividual In trying places In life. "In many respects. If not in every reapect, it requires a hlglcr order of life to meet the demands of today than t any other period in the .history of the world. Hence stronger men and Women are needed. "It is well for life. It is well for us, that It Is so, if we are what we ought to be. A strong man Is not at his best In an easy place. He cannot ict him self out upon a task that Is no match for him. Concerning a Good Kan. "A good man docs not ask for an easy place, unless .he Is good for nothing; and then lie is no longer good at all. The fact of the whole matter Is that any person who becomes at all conscious of Just what is required of 1dm or her In thla serious and yet Joyous business of living finds that one not only comes to one's beet In giving the best there Is In one. but In attempting to face the whole stupendous proposition on must move up to the place where one finds that which Is Impossible without f)od. rail Below Measure. To be blind to the facts of life s they are, to be Ignorant, to be wenk, to fall back, to shirk. t offer Inexcusable excuses must mean that all such per sona as are In these conditions, and do these things, fall below the full measure of individual life, and defraud the sum total of human life of that which be ' longs to It. "No man Is even approximately near the chief contents of hlH best life who feels that be Is altogether equal to that which he ought to do'. We need to be temtited to do the impossible. We need an Insnl rut inn an Intrepidity, ft high desire to do things that never be done without God Whan On Cries Out. "When the way of 'life is hard, when there are many HiIiikk which comtilti te brlnir a person to the cruiHclouttni'ss of his. or her, Insufficiency, when In this consclniiKiieNH. one rrles out: 'Who Is .sufficient for thine thlnK'" then one of two things will lmppi n, lh.it per son will (it her he overcome by such things, or rising to meet the difficulties, will find a mii t'f'leirm y In Hod.

Three Generations Required. "It lakes about three generations of good life to produce a hlfch type of Cristlan manhood, and all the way In this progressive life one must feel that ones sufficiency Is of God. Our sufficiency Is of oid to produce Christian character. "Our sufficiency Is of God to do the ordlnAry things In the dally round of life with an extraordinary spirit. Our sufficiency Is of God to benr any cross in life t,o endure all trlnls, to be what J we ought to be and to do what we ought to do. The greatest mistake that a man ever niakta in this world la when lie tries to do without God. Man's Greatest Need. "God is man's greatest need. When we find our sufficiency In God, we find ourselves, our happiness, cur peace, our all In alt. When we open our minds to htm, his thoughts become our thoughts; when we open our hearts to him, his love becomes our love; when we open our souls to him. his strength becomes our strength, and his spirit, brooding over the great depths of Our being, bears the witness to our spirits that we are children of God." J. GORDON TURNBULL BACK FROM FUNERAL J Gordon Turnbull. consulting en gineer, with offices In the Heck build ing, has returned from Seattle. Wash., where he attended the funeral of hln brother. David T. Turnbull. wh; h whs held last week. Services were hell ai the home of I). . Hotting. fHS3 Twentv flrst avenue, Seattle. Interment was In ljike View cemetery. Mr. Turnbull, as a civil engineer, was well known In Portland and alonu the Pacific coast. He was employed !' the Pacific Coast company, Oregon V;isn fngton railroad, Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, and was one ofMhe loritlnt; engineers employed by the North Hank road.

Keb 21.-, In debate Raturday night between Grants Tase and Rosrburg high schools, Grants i'ass won. th the Portland Is so well equipped with pro fessionul musicians of unusual talent ind ability that on a few days' notice a band equal to the best In the world ouhl be organized here without seeking assistance anywhere outside. This wui lemonstrnted yesteraay afternoon when the Musicians' Mutual association gave Its concert nl the Hungalow theatre And many of those who beard it went away hoping that In the future the per formers would get together occasionally In concert, and It would not he neces sary lo wall for n Shush, Creatore or .my of ie oijier "IHii ones'' to come and charge $1' per seat fur a program of less merit than thnt played yesterday by home talent. . Tho Instrumentation was complete, every section being splendidly repre sented among tho 60 performers who had been selected for the occasion. There could have been more had the stage and auditorium been larger. Nothing' Xing'. From the oboe down to the Bh basses and the string contra ba&ses there was nothing lacking In reed or brass, nnd the result was beautiful tone effects and exquisite coloring. The tone effect was aided by tho use of four 'cellos. It Is seldom that the traveling organiza tions, even those of first order, carry such a well chosen and evenly balanced Instrumentation. The audience was not as large as might have been anticipated, but this was perhaps largely one to tho heavy showers that certainly did not Invite the people to get out and away from their cheerful firesides on a Sunday afternoon. It had been expected ' that the house would be filled to capacity. The program bad been well selected, for It contained uult numbers as the difficult "Rlenzl" overture by Wagner, the "Dance of the Hours" from "I.a Glooonda" by Ponehlne.Hl. three "Nell Gwynn" dances- by German. Victor Her brt's "Red Mill'' and the grand fan tasia from Verdi's "Aula" Solo Work Liked. The solo work Included the well known cornet solo, "Hanctus from St. Cecilia." charmingly played by Hen Drlscoll, and Titl's serenade duet for flute and French horn, played by H. G. Knight and Charles Walrath. The duet was so well received that It had to be repealed. Mr Drlscoll played "the "Rosary'' for an encore. The program opened with the mili tary march. "Pomp and Circumstances," No. , hy F.dward VAuar, conducted by Ralph W. Ilriyt, president of the Rose Festival committee and a musician of rmte. This march Is a composition ma jestic In character and calling for a large Instrumentation. The other numbers were conducted by Charles Dlerke and W. 11. Royer and both were enthusiastically applauded for their excellent work. The proceeds from the concert will form a nucleus for a fund with which to encourage street decnrntlons during the Rose Festival week. Ill timniiiniiTiHhniif AriunbniiviMnnia !E" '- yl LAS! OF MELODRAMAS WHEN YOU SEE IT IN OUR AD IT'S SO At tne Portland theatre last night "A Midnight Marriage," the third and last of Russell & Drew's melodramas to be presented here by the Portland theatre stock company, drew heaylly on the re maining thrills of sensational t heat ri als. A feature of the present produc tion Is the diversity of the settings; the Interior of the New York subway, a I glittering dance hall, a den of thieves. other dark and uncanny spots peculiar to the slums, the palatial hornet; on up per Fifth avenue are among the show ing. Through such scenes, with the hero nnd heroine pursued by the villain and confederates, this mighty drama makes Its way. And, nedless to say, all this trouble Is occasioned by the vllllan's Insatiate desire for the hero's papa's monev. Miss Neva West, the leading woman or the organization, la again seen to ad- (iinage in the part of the heroine. Miss Wewt is an earnest, conscientious player. whose chief asset Is a musical and np- eallng voire. William Dowlan played the bad and received his share of ap- plnuse. True Board man and Miss Claire were the scheming villains, acquitting themselves with credit. Miss Eva. Kurle French, prime favorite with her aud iences, contributed a character drawing that was excellent. The remainder of the cast fulfilled all expectations. ADVEN HSTS ADJOURN INK E- TERRITORY After a week spent In deliberation over the various problems which con front the church In the northwest, the North Pacific Union Conference of Seventh Diiy Adventlsts adjourned yes terday. The conference has been one of the most successful ever held by the Adventlsts. In attenijance at the convention have been over 7B delegates from other cities, representing seven conferences. The work of the conferences has so largely increased that the delegates found it necessary to enlarge the district Into seven instead of five conferences. Con ferences to be known as Southern nnd Knstern Oregon conferences were estab lished. The other five are Oregon. Washington, I'pper Columbia, Idaho and Montana. All were represented at the conference Just closed. In order to assist the work of the medical division of the church each conference was assessed the sum of lltino, the major part of which will go towards the Installing of a college at I,oma Linda, Cab. for the education of medical missionaries Copies of the book. "Ministry of Healing." are to be sold In hopes of raising at least $48,000 for the benefit of the Portland sani tarium at Mount Tabor. A missionary convention at which the delegates will be taught the beet methods of reaching the public will occupy the attention of some of the delegates up till Wednesday of this week. Most of the delegates left for their homes last night. TO CUEE A COLD IM ONE CAT Tk LAXATIVE HROMft Quinine Tablets.
