MUSIC AS AN AID TO WORSHIP
Rev. Will D. Lands Says Song is
Sublime Spiritual Art

At the Westlake Presbyterian church
last night a unique song service was
held. The stereopticon was used to
throw the words of different songs on
the screen, so that all the people could
ioin in the service The chorus choir
under the leadership of Mrs Ignatius
Brown added to the service by several
selections. The pastor, Rev. VIII d.
Lands, p esided and spoke briefly on
Christ Song" saying in part:
Jesus Christ is pre-eminent in song
as he is in architecture and in paint
ing. Poetry and it's twin sister, music,
are the most sublime and spiritual arts
and are much more akin to the genius
of Christianity and minister more to
devotion and spirituality than anything
else save the proclamation of the word.
"a hymn is lyric poetry expressing
deep feeling and devotion set to music.
A good one must present to the throne
of God either a heart full of praise or
of deep felt need. 1t must not be sung
for the effect nor be primarily to teach
others useful lessons, but must be

Fifteen YEARS AS PASTOR
Rev. A. C. SmIther and Congregation
Celebrate Event With Special
Services

1t is accorded to few ministers of
for fifteen consecutive years. This
honor Is Rev. A. C. Smither's, who
yesterday morning began his sixteenth
year as pastor of the First Christian
church of Los Angeles. In honor of
the event special services were held.
Rev. Mr.. Smither took for his topic,
"A Fifteen Years Pastorate" He said
In part:
Fifteen years is a long time in a
single human life. 1t Is nearly half the
average life of man. That time I
have occupied the pulpit of this be-
loved church. What changes these fif-
teen years have witnessed in Los An
geles! Our city, when I came here,
was in the throes of depression, fol-
lowing the boom of nearly twenty
years ago. At that time the population
consisted of about $4,000 people.
What striking changes in the
churches have occurred since that
time. All the city churches have
changed pastors within that period and
many of them many times. The
church Of which 1 am pastor then
worshipped in a small wooden struc-
ture on Temple street, opposite the
court house. The congregation moved
to this site In 1894 and the auditorium
was erected three years later. Of the
present membership of 900 less than
thirty belonged to this church when
began my ministry here. During
these years I have preached nearly
1900 sermons and have received into
the membership Of this congregation
more than 1900 persons.
when I commenced this pastorate
there was one Christian church and
two missions, with about 400 members.
Now we have ten congregations, two
missions and more than 5000 members

taught. Now we face the present with
its problems and obligations"

have apostolic fervor, but let us not
go back. This is the age for us. 1t
is the golden age of the world. There
has not been a time since Adam and
Eve that it has been so blessed to live
as now.
There are countless millions today
who would lay down their very lives for
Christ. Is there another such army?
Oh! how noble 1t was for Father Da-
mien to go to the leper islands and
daily face a death worse than hell. Any
man can be a hero for a great deed
That young girl with Salvation
Army" on her bonnet is probably doing
greater deeds than the heroines Of his
tory"
Rev. Mr.. Lee closed with an eloquent
word picture of the life Of Christ from
the manger at Bethlehem to the scene
at Olivet and an impassioned invita-
ton to join the army of Christ.

sent direct from the heart to the
throne.
when the heart comes into the pres
ence of the throne of God it expresses
itself in much the same way in all
men, no matter how much their heads
may differ when apart. For example,
the two most favorite hymns of the
English language are Rock Of Ages
and Jesus, Lover Of My Soul
"One was written by an ardent Cal
whist and the other by just as enthus-
iastic an Arminian. Each forgot him.

the soul-hunger of each was spoken

Of both branches of faith consider q
hymn book incomplete that does not
incorporate them in 1t.
congregational singing inspires
more hymns and better worship than
any other kind. The hymn must ex-
press all the emotions Of the believer,
If it Is to abide. 1t must reveal the
trembling of the sinner, the joy of the
saved, the alarm to the impenitent,
cheer for the afflicted, courage for the
faint-hearted in time Of struggle and
temptation, comfort and triumph for
the dying and, in word, proclaim the
Savior who satisfies all the desires Of
mankind"

MISSION AT ST. PATRICK'S
Rev. Joseph A. MuIligan Urges Active
Pursuit of Eternal Happiness

The mission at st. Patricks church,
Central avenue and Thirty fourth
street, was opened yesterday at 1880
tendance. Rev. Joseph A. Mulligan
delivered the sermon, saying in part:
ITO see men so industrious, so occu-
pied, so active in the pursuit of tenn
poral advantages one might say that
they seem to labor for an endless num-
Der of years and for treasures which
could insure them a true and lasting
happiness. And yet this life passes
rapidly, and all things of earth, sought
with so much fatigue, must be aban-
doned at the hour Of death.
Temporal views influence almost all
the actions of men. The temporal
goods of fortune, which are acquired
with no less anxiety of mind than they
are possessed with disquietude, capti-
vate their hearts and command their
whole attention.
I'm vain does religion call us to
more solid cares and more serious oc-
cupations. In vain does Almighty God
himself warn that the day of our
greatest exaltation may be but the eve
of our fall. The all-engrossing cares
of temporal things, in spite of religion
and its maxims, are the most serious
occupations of the life of man.
'It is only for the concerns Of the
soul that we are idle and inactive
We are careful and vigilant in all
things else. Nothing discourages in
the pursuit of our temporal interests,
but when we have to contend for a
happy eternity we are inactive and In
different.
ASK yourselves today why am in
this world? I cannot live forever.
Time passes and is followed by eter-
nifty. What will eternity be for me?
My conduct in time will decide that !"

For a small weekly fee women may

The announcement that James b.
Duke, the tobacco magnate, has made
application for a divorce from his bride
Of nine months has caused a greater
sensation than did the news of his mar
riage last February to Mrs. Lillian Nc
Greedy of New York. There had not
been the slightest hint of domestic In
felicity UP to the time they left for
their summer home at Somerville, N.
J., six weeks ago. 1t was understood
the couple were about to take trip
to Europe. Later came report that
Mr. Duke had been suddenly called
abroad on business and was obliged to
leave Mrs. Duke behind.
Mrs. Duke was served with the pa
pers recently. 1t is said she was
greatly shocked, as she had no intima-
ton of her husbands intentions. The
work of preparing the site for ST.
100000 mansion, which Mr.. Duke In
tended for his bride, is being carried
out on his 2OOO-acre estate. Mr.. Duke
started the work just before his depart
ure for Europe. 1t is reported Mr..
Duke became suspicious early last sum-
mer and that his trip to Europe alone
was undertaken to trap his wife, and
that he employed two detectives to
shadow her during his absence. Frank
T. Huntoon, whose name is mentioned
in connection with the case, was not
guest at the Duke place this summer.

VISITING ELKS AT CHURCH
FraternaI Members Listen to Dis
course by Rev. Baker p. Lee

ANY man can be a st. George and
draw his sword and slay dragon, but
it takes a real hero to keep his temper
with the flies bothering him and the
pestiferous little things of life"
This statement was made by Rev.
Baker P. Lee yesterday morning at
Christ Episcopal church in his sermon
on 1.-THE Greatest Empire" He dealt
with the heroisms of every day life,
compared with that of great deeds the
world calls heroism, and pointed out
as the greatest empire the church of
God and the army following Christ.
A large number Of visiting Elks at
tended the service and occupied re-
served seats. Rev. Mr. Lee is a men,
ber of the order. He said in part:
Everywhere and at all times has the
world sought the holy grail of knight
hood, and only when the Christ man
stood on earth was the yearning cry of
humanity hushed. We all look back
at the great empires and the great
heroes, but the greatest empire Is that
of the church Of God. There are count
less millions today following its lead.
1--WE are living in an age when it is
almost popular pastime to criticize
the church. There are some who say
that we need no creed. That is an i'm
possibility. The creedless church is an
absurdity. You are obliged to have a
creed. VIII any one show me clearer,

have just read? 1t has been used for
