T. C. KNOWLES SPEAKS IN
BOYLE HEIGHTS CHURCH
Recent Graduate Of U. S. C. Says Most
Students and Scholars Are EN-.
braeing Christianity, Which
Is Hopeful sign

T. c. Knoles. a recent graduate oi
the L. S. c., spoke last evening at the
Boyle Heights NJ. f.. church on Chris
tianity from the Viewpoint of the Col
lege Man" He said in part
The attitude Of the college man
toward Christianity is undergoing a
significant change.
"As the result OF the cramping. illogi-
cal, unscientfic position of the medieval
church the school became somewhat
opposed to Christianity as a virile faith.
THE church placed the stamp of
authority on its own statements of
truth, irrespective of the results of
careful investigation, and so alienated
scholars of the highest type.
This gave rise to the so-Called con-
f1ict between religion and science,
in which for many decades religion
seemed to be worsted. The immediate
effect of this was the creation of an at
in scholastic circles antago-
nistic to spiritual life.
The reaction of science upon philos-
ophy was marked, and in due time we
were deluged with the productions of
the materialistic thinkers.
But truth wins in every prolonged

and was abrogated by the coming OF
Jesus. and Is no longer in force. This
covenant with all its teachings was
laid aside when the great Teacher came
and instituted his church in the world.
with this covenant the old testa-
ment scripture. SO far as authoritative
teaching Is concerned, has been set
aside. We live under the Christian
covenant today.
The new testament is our rule of
faith and practice and we are bound
only by its teaching. Its teaching is
amply sufficient to guide men into all
truth and the way of eternal life
The disciples plead for proper di-
vision II the new testament. The great
purpose of the four gospels is to make
men believe I'm the gospel of Jesus
Christ. Matthew, Mark, Luke and John
were witnesses to set forth the mar
velous teaching and matchless works
of his life and to make men accept him
as the son of God and savior of the
world. The Acts of Apostles deals with
the establishment on earth of the
church Of Christ and points out what
believers in Christ are to do in order to
be saved from sin and thus get into
covenant relations with Christ and his
church. But for the teaching of Acts
of Apostles men would not know what
to do in order to be saved.
Teach How to Love
The epistles of the new testament
are designed to teach Christians how to
live Christian lives and to point them
to the service they are to perform in
the world.
"The book Of Revelation points the
Christian to the riches of his eternal
reward. Thus interpreted and under
stood the Bible may become a new book
THE disciples also plead for the all
sufflciency of the teaching and require
ments Of the word of God as a rule of
faith and practice for Christians. This
book is divine; all creeds are human.
This book is inspired; all creeds are
of men. This book has the authority
of God in in it's teachings. Creeds set
forth the doctrine and teachings of
men. This book is unchanged BILE;
creeds change with the generations of
men.
The Bible is consistent and harmon
ious; creeds are inconsistent and often
contradictory. If creeds contain more
than the Bible they contain too much:
II they contain less than the Bible they
contain too little. If they contain the
same cs the Bible they are of no value
and ought to be dispensed with. The
marvellous growth of the disciples is
largely due to their fidelity to the word
of God"

I'VE cannot trust to our own reason
ing. No man should he a judge In his

THE question is not DO you think
you are doing right? but Are you
obeying Gods law
1T is essential that this law should
be revealed to us, and that the pun
ishnent for its violation should be
made plain.
God says that disobedience Of his
laws is sin, that the wages Of sin is
death and the soul that sinneth II
shall die. But God also reveals way
of escape to us, for we are all sinners.
"Christ is the way. Take his life as
the souls example, then may we real

BEGINS SERMON SERIES
ON DOCTRINAL TOPICS
REV. A. c. SMITHER SPEAKS ON
"DIscIPLES OF CHRIST"
Says Adherents of Christian Church
Plead for Proper Division and Un-
derstanding of the Scriptures Ac-
cordlng to Teachings Of Nazarene

At the First Christian church last
night Rev. A. c. Smther began a
series of sermons on "The Distinctive
Doctrine of the Disciples of Christ"
He said in part:
THE disciples of Christ are a great
church, having grown in a century to
nearly one and one-half million adher-
ents. The secret of this growth has
been because of their positive adher-
ence to the strong, vital truth of the
word of God They have agreed with
all Christians upon the Inspiration of
the scriptures. They teach that holy
men of old spoke as they were moved
by the Holy Spirit.
THE disciples plead for a proper di-
vision OF the scripture. 1t is divided
into three distinct dispensations, the
patriarcha in which God dealt with
men as the heads of families, the Jew
ish in which God dealt with a nation,
the Jews; the Christian in which the
message of love is sent to all men every
where A record of the patriarchial
and Jewish dispensation Is found in the
old testament, which is no longer bind
ing on Christians. 1t deals with dis
pensations which are no longer in force,
only the new testament is binding up
on Christians.
Divided Into Covenants

covenants or testaments, the old and

ways dressed with a certain note of
distinction and is one of the leading
members of the inner circle of the

was pale hydrangea blue, but beneath

BELIEVES BOOM YET
TO COME IN NEVADA
ROBERT LANkA TALKS ON MIN
ING CONDITIONS
Says Men of Brains and Money Are
Rapidly Going to Sage Brush
State-Engneer Will Make Home
in Los Angeles

1.-THE financial and productive condi-
tion of the state of Nevada of today as
compared to that of one year ago is so
far in advance that there is almost no
chance for a comparison" said Robert
Lanka, one of the best known mining
engineers of the west Mr.. Lanka is
also a well known writer on mines and
mining. His remarks about Nevada
were made while talking with business
friends an associates at the Hotel AL
eXandria yesterday.
In one years time more millionaires
have been made through the gold
mines of Nevada than in any other part
of the country and quicker than any
other medium Nevada has by this
time shown clearly that it is going to
be one of the most if not the most
substantial mining camps in the world.
Capital and brains are pouring into
the sage brush state every month and
the progress and growth of the mining
camps there cannot be imagined un-
less personal visit is paid to them.
From a camp of a few tents a few
months ago with a population of not
more than fifty miners, many of the
camps today are boasting of a popula-
tion of between two and three thou
sand. The camps have almost every
modern convenience. This includes
electric lights and heating plants, tele-
phone and telegraph communications
with outside towns and camps, and in
many instances telephone systems of
their own.
Stock Business to Increase
During the coming fall. from my
personal investigation of the condi-
tions of the state of Nevada and its
hundreds of richly paying camps, 1
look for a great increase in the stock
business 1t is apparent that the big
boom of Nevada is yet to come This
will undoubtedly take place this fall.
New camps will then have been opened
and thousands of mining men will flock
TO them from all parts of the world"
Mr.. Lanka is a graduate of the Uni
versity of California. and during his
college training and ever since has been
connected with large corporations in
doing field work. Recently he was en-
gagged by the Cox Investment company
of Los Angeles and is at present doing
the field work for that company.
During his college coreer Mr.. Lanka
carried off many scientific honors and
by the professors and scientific schol-
ars of the state is looked upon as one
of the most competent authorities in the
west on mining.
Mr.. Lanka left last night on the Owl
for Nevada to look over several prop
ertles that the Cox company is nego-
tlating for and financing. His trip he
said yesterday would occupy about
three months, after which he will re-
turn to Los Angeles. During his abb
sence a beautiful home will be built
for him here. Upon his return from
Neva' Mr.. Lanka will locate here
permanently.
