"oUR INVISIBLE LIFE FORCES
Rev. J. S. Thomson breaches on
Source of All Power

Rev. ]. S. Thomson, pastor of the In
dependent Church of Christ, in Dobn-
son auditorium, preached sermon
on "Our Invisible Life Forces"
"All the forces of the universe are
invisible" he said. I'VE do not see the
force in electricity, or in steam, or in
gravitation, or in wind; nor can we
in the air. The great characters of the
Bible received spiritual force which is
invisible
Spirit is the source of all powers
Spirit moved upon the dark chaos and
made it a beautiful world God is
spirit therefore God is force. Spirit
uality is the root of the tree of life.
When spirituality leaves the root of a
national tree the nation perishes.
Christ breathed spiritual force upon
his disciples and said to them, All
power in heaven and on earth is given
to me-
Education is essential to our spirit
ual nature, in order to prepare it for
receiving spiritual force Theological
schools should teach their scholars
psychology, so that they might be
qualified to save the people from
quacks and impositions Power of
every kind is received in answer to
prayer.
The psalmst was wise and inspired
when he wrote. L will lift up mine eyes
unto the hills, whence cometh my
help. My help cometh from the Lord,
who made heaven and earth.'"

"WHAT is 1T TO BE sAVEDT
Chaplain kidder Gives His Ideas of
the Answer

iHC HISWCT
Chaplain Kidder of the Strangers
Friend society, spoke yesterday after
noon at Burbank hall on What Is 1t
to Be Saved?" He referred to the
various methods adopted by people in
attempting to solve the answer to the
important question. He said in part:
This is burning question. Men
consider nothing more important and
they are ever trying to find an answer.
The mother on the banks of the Ganges
throwing her offspring into the torrent.
does so believing that she can answer
the question The devotee with his
hand held towards heaven until it is
paralyzed, thinks he has answered the
question. The Mohammedan who can
make a pilgrimage to Mecca tries to
persuade himself that he has answered
the question. The conscience money
paid into the public treasury is hint
that some are trying to answer the
question in this way. Even the great
public charities are often a species of
penance with the weather eye on
heaven.
Let no one say that being saved is
simply accepting dogma; volumes
of dogmas as high as heaven never an
swered the question. They are as
lifeless as mummies. Adopting a
phlosophic scheme of salvation will
never answer the question. Chris
tianity is more than a philosophy.
Being saved is not doing great thing
ourselves, but having a great thing
done for us. The ship is saved when
she rides into the quiet harbor out of
the storfr. The prodigal is saved to
mothers face turns him homeward.
ITO be saved one must not only be
cleansed of their past deeds, but they
must have taken away the love for sim
But salvation is even more than this.
To be cured o ia malady, have it taken
out of the blood, is not life, is not SER
vice. it is only removing the impedi-
ment. To have sin forgiven and the
desire for sin removed is not Christian
living. To be saved is to have the
abundant life impaired so that the in
dividual is of service in the world To
be saved means to be i'm a condition to
serve God in serving man, to be a gar
den producing, to be a tree yielding
fruit, to be fountain ever springing." ."

for hope IN the world without faith.
There IS no ground for any confidence
IN anything beyond this world IL we
may not have confidence In this world
as II now stands.
When Col. Ingersoll says that he is
disbeliever. and at the same time
says that he is willing to trust the
order of things, he is uttering a senti-
ment of the highest and the profound
est faith. Fear Is the basis Of super
stition. Fear on the one side. faith on
the other. Faith its opposite, along
with love. is the basis of all religion. /
know IL is still said by some today in
the name Of religion, that men should
hate certain things. sin for instance,
and the devil; and that they should
fear certain things such as God and
the judgment. But this really is
irreligion. not religion Here is an
other good word from the Bible: There
is no fear in love and perfect love
casteth out fear
81 thought a while ago that l would
preach sermon on The Christianity
of Infidels.' l will give you one little
illustrations: Mrs. Sarah Il. Cooper of
San Francisco. who died recently, was
a devoted Christian of broad faith and
conservation, giving her life in good
works. She was a cousin of Col
Robert G. Ingersoll, and she wrote me
O. letter in which occurs the following
passage that will be of interest to you
She says. speaking of Col. Ingersol: 1T
was the terrible doctrine of Eternal
Pain that drove him where he now
stands. His tender hearted, loving
father Ca minister) whom Cousin Rob-
ert worshipped, almost died in tears
because of his sorrow for those who
were without hope in the world. The
colonel used to walk the floor with
him. trying to soothe and comfort him:
and he said, in telling me this, Sarah,
I swore over the dear dead form of my
sanity father that | would spend the
rest of my life in doing all 1 could to
stamp out the fires of hell. in trying
to pluck from tender loving hearts the
fiend of fear
"While 1 do not agree with Col In
gersoll in all of his opinions | believe
that his is infinitely nobler than to
believe in hell and smile, or to believe
in hell and not give ones self to long
life of crucifxion or anything that
might keep those around us from sink
ing into eternal fires
1T is far more honorable to disbe-
lieve in a God who administers
place of never-endng torture than to
believe in the divine permission of per-
manent evil anywhere in the universe
"I greet you as felow-inf1dels to all

EMPERoR'S DINNER TO BE
ENTIRELY A FAMILY AFFAIR

Berlin, Dec. %. - Probably on Eu-
ropean court is giving Christmas
presents on so extended a scale as
the court of Emepror William. Every
one gives presents to everyone else
and the task of selecting the most
appropriate gifts is not an easy one.
For weeks the emperor, as well as
the empress and their grown up
children have haunted the shops
where Christmas presents are sold,
and many a dealer has been pleas
antly surprised by large and liberal
orders for members of the imperial
family. AS usual the emperor will
distribute a large number of his por-
traits, cigar and cigarette cases,
match boxes and other trifles, while
the empress has purchased a carload
of handsome gifts for the ladies OF
the court, the hundreds of employees
and servants, and for hundreds OF
poor pensioners.
The Christmas celebration in the
imperial family will be of a strictly
intimate character Only the imme-
diate members of the family will take
part in it, and sit at the table at the
Christmas dinner, which always is a
regular family affair.

everything they could lay hands on.

washington, d. c.. Dec. %. -
Christmas is always a happy time in
the family of President Roosevelt, as
it is in every happy family where
there are many children and the
means for comfortable subsistence
are not lacking. This year the en-
gagement of Miss Alice Roosevelt to
Congressman Nicholas Longworth,
coming just before the holidays, has
added another note of JOY to the fes-
tive harmony of Christmas happiness.
For weeks the preparations for
Christmas have been going on at the
White House, and although there will
be no tree, the children having out
grown the tree period, it is safe to
say there will be no happier family
in the land than that of the presi-
dent, when the great moment of dis
tributing the gifts of love arrives.
Both the president and Mrs. Roose-
welt are devoted to their family, and
never happier than at Christmas time,
when they can fairly overwhelm
their dear children with gifts. Mrs.
Roosevelt is a thoroughly sensible
and conservative women and makes a
careful selection of the presents she
bestows. There Is some handsome
piece of her own handiwork for each
of the children, particularly the girls,
and in the kindness of her heart Mrs.
Roosevelt never fails to remember
every one of the servants and en-
ployes of the household with some
appropriate and handsome gift, which
invariably bears the stamp of her
Individuality.
There is no doubt that the presi-
dents family and the members of his
household will be taken care of this
Christmas, and judging from the
large number of presents that have
been pouring into the White House
for weeks and from the fact that the
library of the White House is almost
bulging with the gifts stored therein
this will be the merriest Yuletide
ever known at the White House. Both
the president and Mrs. Roosevelt
have sent out large number OF
presents to friends and acquaintances
in all parts of the country. Barrels
of candy and many boxes of gifts
have been sent to Oyster Bay to be
distributed among the school child
rem there, as in former years.
The wives of the cabinet members
will follow the precedent established
two years ago and will send a hand
some and valuable present to Mrs
Roosevelt. The members of the cab
met, themselves, will send individual
presents to the president The great
est secrecy has been observed re-
garding the nature of these gifts.
At the home of Vice President
Fairbanks, Christmas will be cele-
brated by a family party, which vii
include Mr.. and Mrs. Warren Fair
banks of Chicago and their infant
daughter, and Mr.. and Mrs. Tim
mons. Practically all the cabinet OF
ficers will spend their Christmas
holidays in this city, giving famil.
parties
