past because of their loyalty to these
two great principles. 1t is high time
we recognize true nobility in any man,
whether he be white, black, brown, red
or yellow. We ought to recognize true
goodness and greatness, whatever name
a man bears, whatever his nationality,
whatever century he belongs to, what
ever church may claim him. The real
church of Christ is bigger and better
than any of its sects. Let US join
forces. He that is not against us is
for US. The most promising movement
which has ever occurred in The history
of this city is that of the church fed
Grafton.
Again. the CHI ch must loarnl to rec
ognize, harmonize and use all the good
and all the truth in this world, no mat
ter what its origin. There are many
agencies of good outside the church
and many sources of truth beside the
Bible. There are great many things
that contribute for the advancement of
the race. 1t is too late in the day for
the church to look askance at any
truth, scientific, social or philosophical
and we must learn how we may send
cur young people to our highest insti-
tutionc of learning, and let them come
face 10 face with all the very highest
thought and education of the day can
give, without losing their interest in
the church, or without the church los
ing it's interest in them.
Pleads for Rationallsm
More than all this, we must adopt
the Language and the conceptions which
have to do with the spiritual life of
man, with our growing scientific, intel
lectual and spiritual conceptions Man
is not only spiritual being, but he is
an In ntellectual being. He must think,
and ne ought to be free to think with
out weakening his spiritual life or low
ering his spiritual ideals. We have got
to solve the great problem as to how
man is to preserve his spiritual integ7
rity. and do so in connection with the
light that is coming to him from his
expanding Intellectual life. We need a
set of new expressions for the spiritual
experiences of the soul, new concep-
ton OF God, of man and his destiny
which will correspond with the modern
rational conception of the universe.
"Anothtr problem which the church
positively must settle is how to make
eur theoretical doctrines OF human
brotherhood practical thing. There
is more real Brotherhood in the church
today than anywhere else, but the
church has come very far from realiz-
ing Chrlsts divine ideal, and the church
touches only a very small fraction of
the human race. There is absolutely
no room for a competitive system of
life or business in civilization domi-
rated by Christ. The brotherhood OF
Christ knows no bounds but humanity
and no conditions but need. How are
we going to establish this divine COM
munity of interests, which should mark
the life of a race which looks TO God
as the common Father? In this prob
icm the church OF the future will find
it's most difficult task and its most glo-
rious opportunity.
To Hold the Young
"And, finally. the church must stop
the tremendous loss which comes to 1t
along so many lines. How shall we

Interviews in yesterdays Herald
with prominent business and profess
sional men in favor of an owl car sys-
tenn on the street railways of Los An
geles contain arguments and facts that
should impress the railway managers
with the Importance and necessity Of
at once inaugurating owl cars. More
over, they should indicate to the city
council the widespread demand for
such system, and that the people ex-
peet their municipal body to enact an
ordinance requiring all street car COM
panies to comply with the public de-
mand An agreement could easily be
reached between the council and the
railway managers for the Introduction
OF owl cars upon an equitable basis.

VI THAT is said to be the greatest
wv automobile run made in the
west was that of L. Bleakmore
and wife, 1923 Oak street, Los Angeles,
and party OF friends in their recent run
from Los Angeles to San Francisco. IN
which the party crossed the treacherous
Refugio pass in the Santa Ynez mount
aims.
AS described by Mr.. and Mrs. Bleak
more and the Mesdames w. II. Lang
Sol Camp and j. Silvers all of whom
were members of the party, the trip
was one of the most hazardous ever
undertaken and accomplished in the
history of automobiling in Califor-
MIA and the west.
The party left Los Angeles on the
afternoon of July IA last with Mrs
Helen L. Bleakmore at the wheel. That
same night Santa Barbara was reached
where the autoists remained until Sun
day evening.
Desiring to continue the trip to San
Francisco as soon as possible the party
left Santa Barbara Sunday evening and
headed for the mountains.
Travel by Night
1t grew dark rapidly, but the mem
bers of the party believed they could
make the roads with safety and even
travel so by night.
Before they had gone many miles into
the canyons they discovered they had
lost the roads. For several hours the
machine was run up narrow paths and
down steep grades. but none of them
proved to be the regular automobile
roads.
Believing that to turn back would be
taking chances equal to those of forg-
ing ahead the autoists kept on ahead
not knowing where they would come
out.
All Sunday night Mr.. Bleakmore and
his party kept driving on his big
twenty-five horsepower Rambler tour
ing car. SO sharp were many of the
curves that in rounding them the ma
chine had to be backed up several
times. In many instances the rear
wheels rested over the embankment of
the road and desperate chances were
often taken.
On Monday morning as the autoists
emerged from the canyon they discov-
cred they had not been following the
roads but had become sdetracked on
COW paths and various way thorough
fares leading to ranch houses all about
the country.

SAGE IS TAKEN
As AN EXAMPLE
WE FORGET TO LIVE, SAYS
REV, PIERCE
Late Financier, He Declares, Became
Money-M akine Machine and
Lost Sight of Good Uses
of Wealth

At the Memorial Baptist church. Sun
day morning, the pastor, Rev. C. C.
Pierce, preached on 1.-The Problem of
the Church." taking for his text, Work
out your own salvation" He said:
'These earnest words of the apostle
to the church at Philippi were said as
much to the church as a whole as to
the individual members. The injunc-
ton is a timely one for the days in
which we live. Humanity is coming
more and more to see that all men are
bound together into single great
whole, and that in very large sense
the salvation of each is linked with the
salvation of the whole. The whole
church has just as serious and impor-
tant problems to work out as has the
individual. The church which sup
poses it has worked out all the prob
lens of it's existence Is only getting
ready for the graveyard. where 1t be-
longs.
First of all, the problem of the
church is to successfully stem the tide
of mere worldliness and materialism,
which in all walks of life is threaten
ing to throttle the religious instinct Of
humanity and reduce man to a mere
money-making machine. We were Gre
ated for something better than to
merely possess the things of this life,
and man was meant for something
higher than merely to enjoy the ma
terlal pleasures of this world. We have
lost sight of the end in our absorbing
interest in the means. We are spending
SO much time on the house we live in
that we forget to live. Life is more
than meat and the body than raiment.
The late Russell Sage degenerated into
mere money-making machine and
lost sight almost entirely OF the high
uses TO which money may be put. How
small such lives compared with such
lives as that of Toistoi!
Problem for the Church
Again. the church must solve the
great problem Of uniting all good peo-
pie on the fundamental issues Of the
truth. We have been divided into sep
arate camps too long. Let us seek real
fundamentals. l have found my fund
