MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFOR1). ORECOX, MONDAY. SEPTEMBER 17, 1934. PAGE TTTREE LIFT WORLD FROM In speaking last night from the local Church of the Nazarene, Fred M. Weatherford, pastor-evangelist, used aa his topic, "Lifting Bewil dered World Out of Chaoa." He said in part as follows, as he addressed a keenly Interested hearing: "In the relation the church sus tains to the world, It will be neces sary to consider such principles as are fundamental to life. Including education, social utility, and the posi tion the church holds in the field of V direction, as affects social well-being. "Education, First of all, we will view the educational status. During the era of the immediate past we have largely trusted to mere eduoalon to solve, the problems of the nation and of the world. An education that does not give due recognition to moral dis cipline Is as likely to produce a John Dilllnger as a William Jennings Bry an. That kind of education which has substituted free thought In cul ture for discipline, has opened the flood-gat to imperil the moral life of our republic. "During that period which the hos torlan's pen has Just finished record ing, we had turned to science as the open road to success. But time has revealed that the attempt to make science the source of our social struc ture rather than its servant, has proven the futility of a false premise. Science has taught us how to make the desert blossom as a rose, but it has remained Impotent to give a recipe for rebuilding the social etruc- ture It has robbed. In -our outreach for the control of the forces of na ture, we have lost the recipe for self control. "It the freedom of our democracy Is to survive, our curriculum must again embrace those Christian Ideals that made our democracy. "The Social Utility of Life. That there are social. Industrial and eco nomic Injuries that need to be nursed back to health again, no one with the spirit of good-will and ethical sym pathy will deny. There hsve been so many quacks prescribing for the social adjustments of mankind that the social world is- In a maze. But any variety of social a-p pending es tied to the relationship of men can never make them brothers. We shall never see the dawn of a social Utopia through any process of a mere social ized program. The direction of so ciety through legislation may fill dinner palls, but It Is Impotent to minister to he sobs of man's broken step with God. "The only thing that can save clv- Utzatlon Is a Christian reformation. The church must repossess the God given commission." DIES, CALIFORNIA Mrs. May Carle, wife of W. M. Carle, who formerly lived on Foots creek and was well known In Medford, where they had a number of friends, passed away Sunday evening, Septem ber 9, at their home near Chlno, Cal.

GENEVA, Sept. 17. (AP) The League of Nations assembly today elected Chile. Spain and Turkey mem bers of the league council. Chile received 81 votes, Turkey 48 and Spain 51. In all, 53 ballots were cnt. The three nations are elected to non-permanent seats on the council Of the two permanent seats not occu- : pled vacated by the withdrawal of Germany and Japan one has been assigned to Russia, expected to Join the league this week. The intense interest attaching to Moscow's candidacy, was attested again tcday as delegates, spectators and newspapermen in unprecedented numbers Jammed the room where the league's political committee began public examination of the Russian issue. China Lorm. China lost the privilege of re-ell-glblllty for a seat In the council when the assembly gave her only 31 votes of the 34 necessary. As a result, observers deemed the Japanese influence In the far east and In the League of Nations, from which Japan withdrew last year, as decidedly strong. Japanese observers here did not conceal their elation over the vote. One Japanese spokesman told the Associated Proas: "We are greatly pleased, because now that China has been virtually cast out of the coun cil, China will be more disposed to carry on amicable relations with Japan."
