ENTHUSIASM DYING.
Culture Has Killed 1t in Religion and
Politics, Says Pastor.

PLAINFIELD, Oct. 21.-The Rev. DR..
George Edward Reed, president Of Dick
inson College. gave an address at the
diamond jubilee Of the First Methodist
Church here last night on Enthusiasm
and Enthusiasts" He declared that there
IS no longer any enthusiasm in religion or
politics; that the churches have to strug-
gle to increase membership, while on
election Gay one-third Of the voters stay
away from the polls in this country,
where every man is a sovereign with a
duty to perform with his ballot. He said,
in part:
Culture is paralyzing enthusiasm, es-
pecially in church, and the good old-time
amen corner. once a greatly exhilaratlng
Institution of the church, Is dom away
with. 1t is not good form to express
emotion in church, and to shout, after the
fashion of old-time Methodists, would be
objectionable. With culture comes a
waning of enthusiasm, because cultured
people are always passing criticism, and
the rest are afraid of Mrs. Grundy, whose
eye is ever on them. We are In the half
cultured state. which makes one class
critical and the other afraid to speak or
act naturally. and the result is a repres-
sion of all manifestation Of sensibilities.
Religion must, therefore, under this handi-
cap. he quiet and cultured.
Why, in Boston they have a society to
teach You how to laugh, and no member
may laugh al a joke without first taking
proper note to begin on. 1t is a wise
man who can stand the present day culture
and keep his heart warm with religious
fervor. Yet with all our boosted culture
we have not reached the beginning Of
that which existed In Greece ages before
the Christian era, and can make but a
poor showing against the culture of the
little island country OF Japan.

PLEADS FOR RELIGIOUS
EDUCATION I'M SCHOOLS.
The Rev. Henry Merle Mellen Says That
without Its Teaching Entire
System Must Fail.

In Christ Reformed Church yesterday the
pastor, the Rev. Hepgy Merle Mellen,
preached on "The School Problem which
he held was a vital importance to the
country and the people. He said that
without religion every system Of education
must fail, and he declares that the Bible
must be retained in the public schools. He
said:
Education is one of the mighty questions
of the day and has a threefold meaning.
First. 1t is the great instrument OF gov
eminent; second. it is the great handmade
en- of religion, and, third, 1T Is the mighty
bulwark of the home. These three cover
the whole range of human desire and pos
sibility.
Knowledge is threefold. 1t is the accu-
mutation of facts. the application of these
facts and a combination of the application
and knowledge In understanding the facts.
Education means the highest type of cit
izenship and the highest type of the
church. II is our duty to pass people out
of the world ready fof immortality. Amer
lean education is second to none, and
eNcels that OF all other countries. When
I was In Germany during the past summer
| read in the German newspapers of tho
exceedingly large number of suicides
among school children caused by the en-
forcement OF military discipline in the
schools.
A danger is the clamor for the exclusion
Of the Bible from the schools. The Bible
should be in the curriculum in the public
school system.
The object of the State should be to turn
out men and citizens to take part in ma
tional affairs. and the church should be
enc of the main supports Of education. 1t
is the duty OF all religious institutions to
help build up the educational system.
Without religion every system of educa-
ton must aud will fail.
The schools should have the support of
the government, the church and the Chris
tian home. The church should pray for all
educators. lend its sympathies and assist
in ether ways Unless Christian people do
this the whole fabric will be honeycombcd
ard ultimately the whole structure viii
fall.

SAGE GIFT FOR Y. M. C. A..
Widow of Wall Street Wizard Provides
Home for L. I. Railroad Members.

NEW york, oct. I 21.-Mrs. Russell
Sage has given $4,000 to the Long Island
Railroad branch of the Young Mems
Christian Association for a new building.
The branch has SIS. 900 in addition to the
gift. and will use all for the structure.
The land is owned by the association, hav-
ing been given by the company.
Mrs. Sage has a country home on Long
Island. Many years ngo she began to take
an interest in the railroad employees and
in their Young Mems Christian Association.
When it was maNc known to her that the
association needed a large addition to Its
present home she contributed $4,000. That
was in August. The addition was to oc-
cupy a vacant plot next to the present
house. It was found that to put in the
new foundations would seriously damage
the old house. and then the proposition TO
have an entirely new building was made.
Mrs. Sage heard of the plan and an
nounced that she would give $4,000 more.
Ground Tor the new building will be broken
about December l. and the work Will be
finished within eight months thereafter.
In the basement will be a gymnasium,
bowling alleys and shower baths; ON the
first floor a large reception hall and a din
ing room, and on the second floor an audi
torium and classrooms. The third and
fourth floors will be given UP to living
rooms.
A great many Of the~men whose runs
take them away from home at night will
sleep at the Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation. TIL frame OF the building win be
Of steel and the walls of brick. The plot
has q frontage OF sixty feet In Borden ave-
nue'and 50 feet IN West avenue.

THE FOOLISH RICH MAN.
DR.. M'DOWELL'S TOPIC.
Uses Biblical Parable to illustrate Use
lessness of Entire S~elf-Interest
and Neglect of Soul.

THE Fool. or the Man Who Fed His
Soul OH Corn was the subject of the
sermon of the Rev. DR.. Joh Mcdowell,
in Park Presbyterian Church, last night
The sermon was based on the parable
IN the twelfth chapter of st. Luke, OF
the rich man whose fields yielded SO
plentifully hat he did not know what
10 do with the excess products. DIR.
Mcdowell said the parable was the out
come of an interruption of a discourse
by Jesus by a man who asked a ques-
ton that did not relate to the discourse.
Jesus then showed the folly of allow
Ing material things to nave a supreme
place ia life. DIR. Mcdowell continued:
rhis he did by means OF the parable on
the man whose ground brought forth so
much that he did not know what to do
with II. After careful thought. he came
% tne conclusion that he would teal. down
his barn and build a greater one. Having
lone this. he would say to himself, Soul,
thou hast much goods laid up for many
years, take thine case, eat, drink and be
merry
Bnt at this point in the parable comes
Jesis's estimate of this mans progress.
for he says. Coz knows every man." He
is never absent when men are laying out
plan was. Thou fool, this night shall thy
soul be required of thee" Now. when God
calls 4 man z fool. you may make up
But why was this man a fool? So far
rs we ean see. he had gotten his gains
honestly; he was doing, what every. thrifty
business man would do, by making ar
engagements to take care of his goods. All
this may be true. and yet there remains
The fact that In Gods eyes he was a fool,
and the evidence Of this fact is found in
the proposition he addressed TO his soul.
He was not II fool because he had &C
CURED these goods. or because ne wanted
TO protect and care for them, but because
his proposition TO his soul showed that bis
life was built entirely on self interest,

PRACTICABLE

JERSEY CITY. oct. -21.-"The true
wife is a busy bee. rather than a gaudy
butterfly" said the Rev. JOIN l.. Scud-
der, preaching on Unhappy Marriages
as Caused by Feminine Defects" in the
First Congregational Church last night.
The minister said many interesting
things as he talked on the subject and
a resume of his views as he gave them
in the pulpit follow:
Men may joke about m%atrimony and
prate about single blessedness, but
deep down in their hearts Is a longing
for a happy home of their own-some-
thing better than a boarding house.
Married men live longer thai bachelors.
A bachelor is a case of arrested de-
and polished and tanned by the loving
heart OF woman. There is q world OF
meaning in the expression He married
and settled down. Whose hndeth a
wife findeth a good thing
Men are often deceived by appear
ances and the real nature OF woman
comes after marriage. as gay colocs
soon wash out if poorly dyed in cloth.
In addition to having a sweet dispos1-
ton, a good wife will be a practical
woman. who can take charge of a home
and fulfil a wife's duties with dispatch;
She will possess a sound body and
prefer roast beef to cakes and candy.
She will be able to bring up a family
of the time. She will be able to walk
a dozen blocks without taking a car
from good RED blood, and not from
rouge. She will not grow prematurely
old and peeVish and will carry her good
spirits to her journeys end.
"a good wife will have some concep-
ton of housekeeping. being able to
make q good cup of coffee and pie
crust fit to eat. A hungry husband can
feed on fancy embroidery, nor get
much nourishment from B~eethoven's
sonatas. He has a stomach as well as
a soul. It the husband is to provide for
the outer woman 1t is the wife's duty
to provide for the inner man.
Furthermore, a good wife will not
be e~xtravagant. Young wives should
not run costly establishments when
husbands have moderate salaries.
The true wife is a busy bee, rather
than a gaudy butterfly. The best wife
is a real Christian. not one with a
of piety, but one who knows
the meaning of self-sacrifice. The best
are made in church, between
who love God and each other"
