Yesterday morning in the First Pres
byterian church the Rev. Burt Estes
Howard took his text from Matthew
RIFLE: How much, then, is man OF
more value than sheep?" In brief, Mr..
Howard said:
"The religion which Jesus held pos
sessed two main characteristics-a pro-
found reverence for and faith in GOD.
and a profound reverence for and faith
in humanity He did not separate the
fatherhood of God and the divine SON.
shin of every man-it was the simple
expression Of the very profoundest con-
victions on which his religion rested.
"He gave the disciples and the world
to understand that God reveals hlmselI
best not in books, or visions, or miracles,
or prophetic OBSTACLES, but in the COM
mon life Of the true man. In the mimi
of the Master, there existed deep ard
divine conviction of the inherent value
of man as man. Jesus did not begin to
account of a man at the point OF spe-
cific material accumulation, but at the
point of moral possibility.

economic factor but as moral per-

degraded man. He respected no render

the free movement of men toward a
larger and truer moral life, that did not
tend to lift men nearer the divine ideal

tude Of true Christianity toward the
problems Of life. He forever made 1t I'M
possible for those who would be his dis
ciples to found their judgments OF men
on mere economic considerations, or on
any consideration other than tho inner
ent worth Of man as man.
"Sheep represented money value, an
economic worth. Is man, the most in
significant man, to be measured by econ
omic standards? Have we any right to
estimate the value of a mans labor,
while ignoring tho essential and poten-
tial value of the laborer as man? The
problem Of the age is to individualize

THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD
Only By Following Him Can We Hope
for an Ideal Life

David Walk, IN the Church Of Christ,
on Eighth street, near Central avenue,
last evening announced 1.-THE Light of
the World" as the subject Of his SER
mon. He said: The great question of
every thoughtful mind is, What shall
be hereafter? And the only satisfac
tory answer to this question Ia found in
Jesus Christ. We ought, then, to be
familiar with him through whom we
hope to pass beyond the sphere of the
present world until we rest our pilgrim
feet upon the golden shore Of the River
of Life.
The highest mission, then, Of the pres
ent life is to struggle up out Of the dark
ness into the ineffable glory of the Sun
of Righteousness. But it is necessary
that we should have one to guide US,
and an ideal life placed before US.
In Christ we find this model. If we
follow him we shall often find the road
a thorny one. At times we shall be
able to track him only by marks OF
blood. The road is one of duty. 1t
knows no windings or turnings in order
to shun the crosses and burdens of life.
So cur faith is that Christ alone can give
such rest

was to find the source from which the
gold of the Yukon placers was derived.

auriferous rocks at least 500 miles
long and from 80 to 100 miles in width.
