GREETING FOR DR.. fRDMAN.
rlcKinIey's Example, Need of Bible
Training for Youth.


On Sunday morning large congrega-
ton gathered in South Street Presbyter-
ian Church, the pastor, the Rev. DR..
Erdman, occupying the pulpit for the
first time since his return from Syria. The
platform was tastefully decorated with
golden rod, hydrangias and other flowers
appropriate to the early autumn season.
Following the invocation the hymn,
" Holy Holy Holy Lord God AL
mighty" was sung and the 91st psalm
and the first chapter Of Hebrews read.
DIR. Erdman then referred to the pleasure
it afforded him to again meet his people,
saying that all should unite in gratitude
to God for His watchful care during the
past months. In calling attention to the
fact that the Governors of several states
had issued proclamations setting apart
Sunday, Sept. 14th, the first anniversary
of the death of William Mckinley, and
recommending that special services be
held in commemoration of that event,
DIR. Erdman spoke of the great influence
for good life like that of Mckinley s
exerted upon nation that it had been
one of simple trust in God, and because
of that trust the late Presidents life had
been pure, uplifting and one that should
especially appeal to the young.
The day, the speaker said, had also
been recommended by the Presbyterian
and Reformed churches as an occasion
for prayer for pupils in public and pri-
vate schools. The speaker deprecated
the fact that the study or even the read
ing of Gods Word had largely been elm
mated from the public schools of the
land. When it is remembered, he said,
chat there are in this country between
eighteen and twenty millions from five
to eighteen years of age, the necessity for
their being familiar with. and trained in
accordance with the word of God if it is
expected that they should become useful
Christians, must be apparent to ALL" Fol
lowing, the hymn now generally known
as McKinley's, "Nearer My Godto Thee. y
was sung. During the offertory Mr.. Ea-
ton sang with much expression, " The
Holy City," Prefacing the sermon,
which was preached from Hebrews 13: 8
" Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, to.
day and forever DIR. Erdman said it was
the same text from which he had preached
in the saloon of the steamer on the home.
ward voyage. The sermon briefly re-
called Gods watchful care over His peo.
Pile; His promises of care in the past had
been made good, for Gods yesterdays
included all the past, while for the pres
ent and future his hearers were urged to
place their trust in the same Father,
who, with Jesus Christ, His son, was
not only able to save all who believe, but
to keep them safe to the end of life's pill
grimage.
At the conclusion of the services g
large number shook hands with both
DR.. and Mrs. Erdman.
At the evening service DIR. Erdman

THE MONROE
DOCTRINE
Foreign Comment on President
ROOSeyelt'S Speeches.

Uncle Sam will Interfere Only In Case
of Oppression on Part of Foreign
Powers -Qerman and Austrian
Newspapers Would Like to Embroil

Gus Difficulty.
Some confusion appears to exist in the
minds of most people as to what is
meant by, or practically what is, the
Monroe doctrine, and the recent speeches
of President Roosevelt have re- awakened
the old interest. Monroe, who was Pre-
sident of the United States in 1928, de-
livered a message to Congress with the
idea of frustrating the schemes of what
was known as the "Holy Alliance, !"
which sought to back up Spain in its
policy with regard to Spanish America.
The Monroe message was a domestic
simply stated the principles which
would guide the United States in exer-
cising her rights and defending her in
terests, and its Importance has been de-
rived from its substantial adoption by
successive Presidents and by the people
of the United States.
At the same time as the delivery of
the Monroe message, action was taken
by Prime Minister Canning, in a confer
ence with the French Ambassador, in
objecting to any foreign interference on
behalf of Spain. We do not know that
the policy of Great Britain is different
today, both England and the United
States being interested in maintaining
the status QUO. Interest in the Monroe
doctrine was revived some years ago in
connection with the dispute as to Vene-
zuela, and it may be remembered thai
this was settled amicably enough.
British rights in any part of the Ameri-
can continent, North or South, are never
likely to be interfered with by the U.
s. A.
In 1928 Spain was in sad state both
with regard to the home government
and her South American colonies. With
the idea of restoring order" in Spain,
which meant ire establishing absolute
monarchy" the French army, with the
concurrence of the Holy Allies Russia,
Prussia, and Austria,) on April Z, 1923,
crossed the frontier, and in May occu-
pied Madrid, and in August Cadiz That
moment, Canning, the British Prime
Minister, began to act. He proposed
that the u S. A. should join with Eng
land in a declaration that, while neither
power desired the colonies of Spain for
herself, it was impossible to look with
indifference on European Intervention in
their affairs, or to see them acquired by
third power. But England declined to
acknowledge the independence of the
little South American Republics, as de-
sired by the United States, and the joint
declaration was never made
Monroe announced the policy of his
country in these words =

April, the Church of the Redeemer,
which was seriously damaged by fire on
that date, will reopen next Sunday
The first service will be held at 1870 am.
Both the external and internal appear
ance of the church is greatly improved,
the repairs and enlargement being now
completed. Each of the side aisles has
been extended some twelve feet so as to
open up the whole interior and appar-

maple floors have been substituted for
carpets. These two changes have had
marked effect on the acoustics, especially
for the music. The decorations, though
largely on the former designs, are en-
tirely new, and such changes as have
been made add greatly to the general
effect, making altogether one OF the
most picturesque and tasteful of ecclesi-
astical interiors.

FRATERNITY.

IF I could write but one little word
Upon the hearts OF men,
ia dip into the fount OF love
And write with golden pen
One little word, and only one, :,
And feel life's work on earth well
done;
For every heart would speak TO me
That one sweet word-Fraternlty.
The angel throng would sing song,
The sweetest ever heard,
If they could read in human hearts
That precious little word
For Kindly thoughts and kindly deeds
Are treasured more than crown or
creeds.
In these the angel host would see
The children of-Fraternlty.
And man viii need no other creed
To guide him on llfe's sea,
If he embark within the ark
OF true Fraternity.
For love divine will clasp his hama
And lead him to the promised lano
Love to his fellow man shall be
His passport to Eternity.

1OGS TO GUARD InE LOUVR..
Precautions Take by Paris AuthOri'
ties to Protect Priceless Col
Iections of the Museum.

Though the "diving dogs" of the
Partisan river police have been rather
ridiculed since they absolutely refused
to 90 to the rescue of the enterprisinS
journalist who threw himself recently
into the Seine from the Pont de la
Tournelle to try their mettle, dogs are
to have another official appointment in
Paris.
The authorities at the Louvre are
instituting dog service" to supple
ment the night guardians OF the
museum. This excellent innovation
has been brought about by the action
of an irrepressible journalist, who IN
his thirst for copy" hid himself in one
of the Roman sarcophagi when the
doors of the great museum closed to
the public at five in the evening. he
was not discovered, and would have
remained there all night with the
whole of the priceless collection at his
mercy had it not beer that frlend
to whom he had confided his intention
wisely informed the authorities.
This fact conclusively proved tho
journalists contention that the place
was not properly guarded, and the au-
thorities for once thought it was best
"to shut the stable door before the
horse was stolen" and so have settled
that in future the night patrol will be
accompanied by dogs who can be trust
ed to scout out intruders.
