MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 192X '. TH E : . OREGON DAILY , JOU RNAL, PORTLAND, OREGON. AFFECTING HOME ARE SUMMED UP "Even a cursory glance at conditions in the average American home reveals evidence sufficient to warrant the most careful study of those influences now affecting these homes from the stand point of morals and religion."' states the report of the joint commission on home and family life in Jts relation to religion and morals, which, will be presented to the Episcopal General Convention, now in session here. The report continues, "the attitude toward youth, even more than the atti tude of the youth, will scarcely bear severe scrutiny. Left severely to itself during' the exigencies of war, the home life more or less disintegrated1 by the extraordinary demands upon each member, youth sought an outlet for its natural, demands elsewhere than amid the home environment. "The results were inevitable. But the reaction was unfortunate in that it has left a stain upon the character of our youth, reflecting the follies and outhful ebullitions as sinister actions and questionable behavior. This has had the natural effect of causing the youth to look behind the criticism and search out the causes of his own con ditions. XATIOXAL LIFE MENACED "Again, the reaction has been as un fortunate as it was inevitable. The youth has found the lack of serious religious and moral influence in bis U home ; he has been enticed by the glit tering generalities of various forms of activity extraneous to domestic life. And whatever attacks the home is a menace to the national life. God has set the sacred names: 'Father,' 'Mother. at the center of His com mandments. In thel home the child io to be taught obedience to his earthly father that he may learn to reverence his Father in heaven. In the family he begins to say 'Brother,' 'Sister,' that later he may see himfeelf in the wider relation as part of the family of men. Thus it is in the home the child first realizes the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man. The home jou are rearing your children in. will c'eterrnine whether you .are bringing up Christians or atheists, patriots or Bolshevists to be future citizens of the TJnited States, indeed the family is a i thing so divine that Almighty God re veals Himself under a family name. He is a Father : In the Godhead itself is Father and Son. He has a great family in heaven and earth. THE CHRISTIAN HOME "The center of the Christian hfrrae is Christ. Father, mother, child, are one in Him. therefore united with, each ether. They form the earthly trinity, counterpart of the heavenly trinity. Christ is the head and heart of hu manity. The home is the circle drawn ( loKe around him. The church is the larger circle including many homes. The state is the largest circle includ ing all mankind. This is not man's arrangement, but God's appointment Pollute the source and the whole stream will be unclean. Keep the home sweet and strong, and every life that goes out from it will be a power to save the nation. No country is strong where home life is despised. Church and state are built on the family. While the family is safe they are safe. "Now there are some forces which ten to promote family life and others ! to hinder it. Not only should we as Christians foster the Christian spirit in our families, and cooperate with the forces which upbuild the home, hut we should also fight the forces which prey upon the family Hfe. When the home is wrecked, church and state totter to their ruin. The family is the key ptone of the arch. If that falls the xvhole structure of society crumbles away. KACIAIi POISOXS REE Jf ."Industrial conditions affect the home ; for example, those conditions under which many immigrant families live, are inimical to the maintenance of the Christian standard o family life. There are conditions of the employment at girls under which they are Influ enced to supplement their remunera tion with the wages of shame, tending to prevent the realization of a Chris tian standard of family and home life. The same may be said of men who, be- ' cause of insufficient wages, are unable to marry at the time nature intended , and early turn to vicious courses which are now recognized as sowing seeds of frightful racial poisons. The church must take note of these facts in some way other than merely personal ex hortation, necessary as that Is. "A recent study of certain foreign born workingwomen In New 'Tork city has revealed the fact that the majority of the members of given households have, from economic pressure, been forced out Into remunerative Industrial occupations. This, of course, , means that the ideal of the family which rests . upon the bread-winning labors of the husband and father, has been violated, largely under necessity, and that mothers, wives, sisters, and small chil dren have had to hold up their share of the common family burden. CHILD LABOR FLATED "Child labor must either by wholly abolished, or else so rigidly controlled as not to do injury to growing boys and girls by sacrificing them either to the greed of employers or the tempor ary necessity of parents. Particularly is it necessary that the employment of women should not be allowed , to harm future generations by forcing expectant mothers to work at heavy tasks up to the time of childbirth, or compelling them to fesume Industrial occupation before they are fit to do so. In these matters the church Is directly con cerned. The relation of Industry to the family is one of the most urgent which the church or any Christian community is compelled to face. "We have given, careful thou-fht to these and other sodologic and economic conditions as they affect the family, but we are convinced the final remedy for all Is the bringing of the home under the dominion of Christ. The great curse of drink has been throttled. Commercialism of vice la passing. Even war is going the way of human slavery, polygamy and other creatures of the night. All abuses finally yield to the resolute advance of the Chris tian conscience. Therefore t8 would concentrate upon the one essential thing making the home Christian, be lieving that thereby all economic prob lems will In time b solved. Under separate heading the report takes up "Education and the Family, "Family Religion," "Home Teachings," -Lost Paradise of Parental Control." "Indlaclriminata Marriages," Th Pur pose, of Marriage," "Recreation and the Family." and "Work for Preachers and Pastors." - LIGHT CONTRACT LET Chehalis.

D., suffragan bishop of Arkansas and the Southwest Province, who is attending the General Convention. "The belief of many people 'that the negro desires social equality with white people is false." said the Right Rev. Edward Thomas Denby, D. D., suffra- bishop of Arkansas and the south west province, one of the two colored bishops in the Episcopal church. Bish op Penby is attending the General Con vention. . "It is only the lower classes of both black and white races that keep this old fallacy alive. If the better class of white people display any interest in the negro, they are immediately characterized as 'negro lovers' by the lower and more ignorant whites and if negroes take up any kind of work with white people, the ignorant col ored people immediately declare they are an enemy to their race. "All the better class of colored peo ple want is to be treated like human beings." The work of the Episcopal church among the colored people of Arkansas is 20 years old, but it is only within the past three years that there has been any appreciable growth. There are now about 450 communicants and there are TOO children in the Sunday school. The church has one parochial school, one kindergarten, six church There are four clergymen In the dio-i cese and six catechists. Bishop lenby is a mild mannered, soft spoken mar, who accepts with good grace the discrimination between whites and blacks in the South, al though he is a Northern negro and so finds it a little hard to go without a sleeper at night when traveling, and without food if the dining car is the only place where food can be secured. Episcopal Laymen Plan to Discuss Social Problems Social problems confronted by the church will be discussed by leading Episcopal laymen and clergy during the coming week at a series of public forume to held in hall x of tte Labor temple, under the auspices of the Church League for Industrial Democracy. The conference will conclude with, a mass meeting next Friday in the Labor temple auditorium, at which the Rt. Rev. Benjamin Brewster, bishop of Maine, will preside. The mass meeting speakers and ; their subjects are : The Rt. Rev. Charles D. Wil liams, "The Labor Movement in Eng land and What It Can Teach Us in America" ; " the Pjt. Rev. Edward L. Parsons. "The Japanese Problem on the Pacific Coast" ; Norman F. Cole man, "How Employe Representation Works" : and Otto Hartwig. "Federal Injunctions and the Labor Unions." The forum speakers Include Bishop Brewster, the Rt. Rev. William F. Faber, bishop of Montana ; the Rt. Rev. Logan H. Roots, bishop of Han kow, China ; the Rt. Rev. Henry St. George Tucker, bishop of Kyoto, Japan ; Dr. P. A. Parsons of the Uni versity of Oregon ; Professor Edward O. Sisson of Reed college, and E. P. Marsh of the United States department of labor. Greek Archbishop Weds Local Pair; Guests Kiss Bride With elaborate ceremonies the wed ding of Panagoula Irougas and James Meletls, a son and daughter bt Greece, was solemnized Sunday by Archbishop Panteleimon of Nea polls. Palea tines, one of the notables attending the Epis copal convention. The wedding took place at Hibernian hall In the pres ence of a large number of guests. In Greece, it is a rare occasion wben an. archbishop performs a wedding cer emony, but as the principals were na tives of the archbishop's birthplace, Argos, Greece, he consented to offi ciate. Crowned with wreaths of flowers which were Joined together by long flower garlands, the rbide and groom stood before the archbishop, who from time to time exchanged the wreaths upon the heads of the bridal pair, as an outward symbol of the unity of the two. The entire ceremony was chanted by those taking- part and a group of singers from the local Greek Orthodox church. Following the bridal rites, the guests kissed the bride in thor ough western fashion sad dropped coins in a large platter placed before the couple, : i VISITING BISHOPS OCCUPY PULPITS Business details were put to one side by the Episcopal General Conven tion Sunday and the day was devoted to worship. Eighteen of the visiting bishops oc cupied pulpits In Portland churches Sunday morning and evening conduct-' Ing the services in all the Episcopal churches Bave the smaller missions. One of the most unique services of the day was conducted Sunday morning in front of St. Stephens pro-cathedrai. The church was packed to capacity before the services were called and to meet the situation. Bishop Quin of Texas and Bishop Howden of Xew Mexico, held an open air meeting near the church. Five hundred persons. Including some Of the higher officials of the church, took part in the services. Bishop Anderson of Chicago was in i charge of the services within the ! church. The feature of the day was the of- lering or cnuaren 01 ine r..pijopi , church from all the world at The Audi- torium meeting in the afternoon. The offering totaled more than $7000. each i child giving a penny for each year of age. The money will go to missionary work in Alaska conducted by the Right Rev. Peter Trimble Rowe, missionary bishop of Alaska. Recently the bishop's launch was wrecked while he was going about his duties in the Alaskan islands and a portion of the money will be used to buy a new one. Sunday night, a tremendous throng gathered at The Auditorium for a mass meeting conducted by the nation-wide campaign department to , explain the plans of the church and to waken the people to the conditions which the church must face in the future. Rev. George Crarg Stewart, rector of St. Lukes church of Evanston, 111.. Bishop Mize of Kansas and Bishop Reese of Georgia were in charge of the meeting. Hawaiian Bishop Stickler for 100 Per Cent Christian Church members who go to their places of worship occasionally, pay a small pittance and think they are Christians, have anotherthought com ing, said Bishop La Mothe of the Hawaiian Islands in a sermon de livered at Grace Memorial church Sunday evening. And in the same class are the churches which serve merely as sociaj centers and make no effort to spread the gospel through the world, accord ing to the visiting churchman. Bishop La Mothe chose as the sub ject for his discussion at the evening service aid to missions and spreading of faith. He took as guiding verse : "Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it." The miracles performed by Jsus were accomplished only through the implicit faith of his followers, in the opinion of Bishop La Mothe. who said that the work of Christ could not be wrought into good unless the peo ple had faith. And the church man, who would do good in the world, ac cording to Bishop La Mothe. must do his best to spread the gospel of faith to foreign lands. "What would you think of a power house which was able only to supply enough power to run its own ma chines and light Its own building?" queried the visitor. "That Institution would be useless and the citizens would say scrap it. Churches which do not send power outside of their four walls are just as worthless and are an economic loss to the com munity." The sermon of Bishop La Mothe was brief, and he invited the members of the congregation to come to The Auditorium Tuesday night if they desired to learn of the work being done in the Hawaiian Islands. Women's Auxiliary Given Gavel Made From Historic Tree On behalf of the curator of the Oregon Historical society, a gave was presented to the Women's auxil iary of the Episcopal church Saturday by Mrs. J. H. Bagley of this city at the second session of that organiza tion. The gsvel is made fiom a locust tree from Rose Farm, south of Ore gon City, which belonged to Mr. and Mrs. Holmes, the first Episcopal fam ily to take up residence in Oregon territory. The Right Rev. Thomas F. Scott, D. D., first missionary bishop of Oregon, often visited the Holmes family and sat- under this tree. The handle of the gavel is made from a chair which was the property of Dr. John McLoughlin and bears the as sociation of the first Episcopal serv ice read in this community. The gavel will remain .In possession of the Ore gon branch of the Women's auxiliary. With one or two exceptions, the recommendations contained in the ex ecutive secretary's report were car ried as read. It made provision for the establishment of a rest room at the Church Mission House in New York, and a sum to be given as a memorial to the late Julia Emory, beloved and honored executive secre tary of the Women's auxiliary tor 40 years, the memorial to be placed in the Mission House. A request from the Girls' Friendly society, that the head of the department of missions of that organization be made a mem ber of the executive board of the auxiliary, caused considerable debate and was referred to a committee to report at a future meeting of this convention. Pacific Primary Contests Called Warmest in Years South Bend, Wash.. Sept. 11.

House of Deputies Announce Approvals By Bishops' House Business in the House of Deputies this morning at the General Conven tion of the Episcopal churcjh included the announcement of the approval of the House of Bishops of a number of recommendations placed on the cal endar the latter part of the week. These items included the work of the hostess houses, service clubs and sim ilar organizations in army and navy centers, and a numbe of minor changes in the text of the Book of Common Prayer. A commission on personnel to be made up of three bishops, three pres byters and a like number jof laymen be made up to investigate ind supply parishes in need of men for special ministry was recommended by the Rev- yW. A. R. Goodwin Of Western iw ua reierrea to a com mutee. CZECHOSLOVAK AUTHORITY DOING VALUABLE WORK Rev. Robert Keating Smith of Westfield Parish, Mass., Prominent in Conference. One of the interesting figures on the conference of the department of the foreign born is the Rev. Robert Keat- i mg Smith, whose parish is in West i fields Mass., where he has been recog nized as pastor by 500 Czecho-Slovak-lans who have come from across the sea to become a part of this great na tion. The Rev. Mr. Smith's church has received much notice because of its famous vested choir composed of nearly a score of young Czecho-Slo-vakians, all of whom, he says, have wonderful voices and are eager to use them under training. One of his choir boys is a junior at Harvard uni cersity and all of them are American citizens. The Rev. Mr. Smith is expert ad visor to the department of foreign born of the Episcopal church and is considered an authority on Czecho slovak problems both here and abroad. REPORT VALUABLE In 1920 he was commissioned to go "to Czechoslovakia by the presiding bishop and council and made the trip at his own expense, returning with a most valuable report on a problem which has baffled students of this par ticular racial problem for years. He was also able to secure a num ber of confidential interviews with the organizing committees of the Czechs and on the never-to-be-forgotten oc casion of the first union meeting of the Serbian church and the Greek or thodox church held in St. Nicholas ca thedral August 29, 1920, at Prague, he delivered the sermon to a congregation of over 2000 jammed Into a house of worship designed to hold only half that number. The bishop Diostej cele brated the Serbian orthodox service at the same time. The national orthodox church of Czecho-Slovakia. which came into be ing in 1920, is represented in Portland by its only bishop, Gorazd Pavlik, a former monk of the Roman faith. 1,000,000 IX CHCRCH His church now numbers 1,000,000 souls and is increasing in thousands each month. Because the state favors the Roman faith the new church is not yet equipped with properties for places of worship. Bishop Gorazd is receiving members for the national church at the rate of 1000 a day. The revival of their an cient national Episcopal church which was wiped out by their oppressors 300 years ago is experiencing a miraculous development. The Rev. Mr. Smith says it is safe to say that practically 15 per cent of the new members were affil liated with no church and 50 per cent of the others were merely nominal members of the Roman church, follow ing the order of the nation which re quired all persons to be members of one and only one church. IS ( Continued Prom Face On) reary of War Weeks stated Mrs. Hard ing's temperature was nearly normal, which was regarded as a favorable sign. Following the examinations con ducted Sunday by Dr. Charles B. Mayo of Minnesota, Dr. John Finney of Baltimore, and other physicians, Mrs. Harding slept peacefully during the night. President Harding, after spending most of the night at his wife's bedside, retired early this morning. Other physicians went to their homes and hotels, leaving only Dr. Mayo at the White House as the guest of the president. After a conversation with George B. Christian Jr.'. the president's secretary. Senator McCormick of Illinois told newspaper men on duty at the White House that Mrs. Harding's condition this morning was more encouraging than iast night when It was said offi cially that she was resting comfort ably.

' MRS HARDING REPORTED MPROVED CHURCH ADS AID RELIGIOUS CAUSE, DECLARES BISHOP "Advertise religion advertise the church." This is the slogan of the Rev. Robert F. Gibson, executive secretary of the bureau of publicity of , th enational council. Episcopal church, by virtue of which the whole attitude of the church towards publicity and advertising has been changed during the last two years. And, also, this new tendency to let the public know what ' the church is doing, lends importance to the mass meeting of the members of the pub licity bureau that is to; be held in The Auditorium tonight. According to the announcement of John Stewart Bryan, secretary of the American newspaper -Publishers as sociation, and publisher of the Rich mond News Leader, "much criticised the department of publicity," will at this meeting, "report en Its activities and take council with the General Convention as to how best to use pub licity for the advancement of the work of the church." Bryan said : "Not even the church can live with out publicity. The apostles all car ried news, and St. aul was an expert Jn the art of getting a hearing. Why. the very word Oosp$' means 'good news." The sole question is one of means, not of purpose. And to dis cuss the best means of getting the widest publicity, Uie meeting will be called." Rev. Gibson will go into detail as to t tne work or the bureau. Rev. E. Clowes Chorley will give the differences between publicity work at this conven tion and at previous conventions. Bry an will sum up the work of the depart ment and make a forecast as to the future. The publicity bureau, which is a di vision of the national council, pub lishes at Its New Y6rk headauarters several papers. "The Church at Work," a iree publication, comes out about six times a year and has a circulation of 500,000. "Exchange of Methods," also free and also .published about six times a year, is for clergymen and active church workers and has exactly the' purpose that its name would Indi cate. Rev. Gibson is editor of both of these and has as his assistant editors Roger Daniels and Miss Gladys Barne. "The Spirit of Mislons" deals with missions in this country and in foreign lands. It circulates by subscription and comes out monthly. Rev. Gibson-is editor in chief, with Mlrs. Kathleen Hore as active editor. Besides these publications, bulletins on various subjects from every corner of the church field are issued by the bureau whenever local workers prepare these bulletins. Daniels maintains a weekly 6ervlce of news and illustrations for church weeklies, while Miss Barnes collects and di tributes news to small church paper in each diocese. Then there is the national news bu reau, under the direction of William Hoster,' which connects the church with the daily newspapers. "We have the theory," said Hoster, "that there is as much news in the church as in sports, politics or any other field and that the papers stand just as ready to publish it, provided It is given to them in crisp, newspaper style." Each of the 60 dioceses has a local correspondent who sends material to the Js'ew York bureau, and the bureau In turn supplies each diocese with ma terial which may be rewritten with a "local end." Since this bureau was started in Novemer, 1921. church news paper publicity has increased maaifold. The Rev. Gibson, head of the bu reau, served as a copy reader on the :sew York World. He was then ad mitted to the ar in Pennsylvania and practiced In York. Pa., where he was later editor of the 3"ork Gazette and twice mayor of the city. He used to let one of the aldermen handle police wuri wi ounuay morning, wmcn was one of the mayor's duties, so he -could go to the country to preach. He was then a student, seeking admission to the ministry. Hoster served with Hearst's papers ror 17 years, most or the time as po litical correspondent in Washington and elsewhere, five years of it with Roosevelt. He went to, Europe with John jj. Rockefellre in 1906. .Daniels is an experienced newspa perman, having worked on numerous papers on the east coast, and Miss Barnes also gained her knowledge In the thick of it, where the presses roar ana tne typewriters rattle. BISHOPS VOTE TO OMIT WORD OBEY ( Continued Tram Put One) together otherwise than in accordance with God's word, their marriage is not such as the church alloweth for the present wording which ends by stating that "their marriage is not lawful." (9) Favored addition of a rubric requiring the man and woman to kneel while the minister gives the prayer oz blessing. Other proposed chanares In other parts of the prayer book is the short ened form of the Ten Commandments, and also a change requiring- the Ten Commandments to be said one Sunday a month instead of every Sunday as at present. The bishops did not approve the addition to the prayer for the church militant, of a thanksgiving: for the saints and a special prayer for the departed. . SUBSTITUTE WOED PRIEST They recommended, the report shows, the substitution generally of the word "priest for the word "minister In those parts of the service where it does not so appear, and also a change in the title of the office of holy communion to read as follows : Th Divine Lit urgy, being the order for . the Lord's Supper, or Holy Eucharist, commonly called the Holy Communion."

"Too many things are measured in dollars and cents. All of . the differences between em ployes and employers could be ad justed if love was given a place in the councils.

PRAYER BOOK REVISIOIT Revision of the prayer book was the question, which occupied the time of the house of bishops this morning, the office of baptism, the question being presented by the Right Rev. Edward L. Parsons, .bishop coadjutor of California. t The Right Rev. William Lawrence, bishop of Massachusetts, and the Right Rev.

We have many things oetore us oi more vital Importance to the church than revision of the prayer book." The product Is not such as to jusuty the attempt." J ' . We have consumed two conventions already in discussing changes in the prayer book'and constitution, and have accomplished nothing." he said. I , believe we are attempting to do some thing ourselves '. which the people do not demand or wanttl I do not be lieve the General Convention a compe-. tent body to revise a -prayer book. They , might as well try to revise a score of music. ". The prayer book is a literary production, and I never saw a literary production produced by 720 people. We have nuttjr. more things before us of more vital importance to the church than revision of the prayer book." ASKS TEST VOTE . j " Bishop Johnson then Introduced a resolution asking the house to register its opinion through a test vote, as to whether It desired to consume the bal ance of this convention In discussing trivial - prayer - book i revisions. - The chair held the resolution out of order at that time, but allowed Bishop John son the privilege of making . it later. - .
