DEFINES UNIVERSALISM
AS VOICE OF THE AGE
Rev. EIIWood Nash Appeals to Recog-
nized Authority of Science, Art,
Literature and Modern
Social Ideals

Rev. C. Ellwood Nash, d. D.. Univer-
salist pastor, spoke on 'Universalism,
the Voice of the Age" in Blanchard
hall yesterday afternoon, taking for his
text Ephesians 4:6: "One God and
Father of all, the God who rules over
all, works through all, and lives in ALL"
He said in part
"Our very topic will scandalize some
people. What do we care, the will
says, for public opinion? ''Vox populi"
is not "Vox Del" The Bible is our or
acle; let God be true and every man a
liar But by voice of the age 1 do not
mean the clamor of the multitude.
though the instincts of the plain folks'
are not to be despised. Majorittes are
sometimes right. My appeal is. how
ever, to recognized authority, to what
apart from religion at any rate
would be regarded as the best products
or symbols of a Christian civilization:
to science, art, literature, the new
thought, reforms. social ideals.
1.-The Bible under deeper examination
has been found coordinate with and
causative OF the enlargement of ideas
and ideals.
"The expression of our Universalism
may be thus phrased:
1.-THE Universal Cause
Acts not by partial but by general laws"
zone God. one law, one element
And one far-off divine event
Towards which the whole creation moves.
''I say, then, that this universalism
is clearly voiced by science. Science
has arranged choas and filled in the
vacuums; she has lifted the ornament
and pushed out the horizons, and given
dimension to the universe. Especially
she has verified her hypothesis of uni
formity in natural operations-not so
as to exclude the possibility of special
providences, but so as to make them
seem improbable because unnecessary.
She knows no here nor hereafter, no
now nor then, but only a continuous
movement and steadfast trend. The
little gods have become naught before
her march, the devils, too, have faded
into phantoms, and woe to the Achilles
that defies her lightning! Under her
spell time and eternity have become one
august and splendid Now; the future
has no terrors more than the present,
because she holds it's clew; God
energies from the shadow and shows a
friendly, omnipotent face"

POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS
HAILED AS DELIvERANCE
Describes Fundamental Principle Of
New Thought as Harmonizing
Apparently Discordant
Facts of Life

1.-THE establishment of postal saw
ings banks next year will mark an
epoch in the economic evolution of this
country" said Reynold E. Blight, the
minister of the Los Angeles Fellow
ship, in an address at Blanchard hall
yesterday morning. These savings
banks will put into circulation many
hundreds of millions of dollars that are
now boarded in small sums; and Will
be a great factor in recalling prosperity
to the country. The money will go
into circulation in the community
where it is saved, and it's safety will
be guaranteed by the government. The
redemption by the Republican party
of its prediction pledge will go far
toward breaking the financial ring that
has dominated the nation for many
years 1t is a frank acknowledgment
that the government owes a duty to
the people. 1t is truly democratic in
principle. and will be a further illus
tration of the advantage of letting the
people do their own business"
After this prelude Mr. Blight spoke
on 1.-THE New Thought in Practice, -
and said in part: 1.-THE fundamental
principle of the new thought-the inn
nanence of God-glves a rational or
DERBY, progressive, purposeful uni
verse. It harmonizes many seemingly
discordant facts of life. 1t proves
mans divine origin and establishes the
filial relation with God that can never
be severed. 1t gives sure foundation
for the brotherhood of man, destroys
artificial distinctions between the sa-
cred and profane, eliminates fear and
distrust from the human heart and
gives a rational basis for a conquer
ing optimism.
self expression is the basic passion
of the human heart. New thought in
practice is art expressed in terms of
conduct. Conservation to great ideal,
the mastery of the mind and persist
ence will make life beautiful, good and
powerful Above all, cultivate char
acter, because that is the only thing
that endures."

PELS REFORMATION
Denver Speaker Declares a Human
Being Requires to Gain New
Ideas and Ideals to
Know Himself

Frank A. Gustafson of Denver de-
livered an able discourse yesterday
morning at the New Jerusalem Chris
tian church on 1.-THE Making of a
Man." taking his text from John 1886:
Jesus answered and said unto him,
Verify, verify, L say unto you except
one be born anew he cannot see the
kingdom of God. Verify, verify,
say unto you, except one be born of
water and the spirit he cannot enter
into the kingdom of God"
MAN." said the preacher, lis born
for heaven. The object of creation is
a heaven of angels. But man is born
into the love of self and the world.
He must be reborn into the love of
God and the neighbor. Therefore, by
endowment he is created to love him
self and the world first, that out of
that love and life may come a con-
quering, superior life and love that
shall be his own and felt as his own.
Men are always led by their loves
and delights. Their love is their life
and all things loved appear as good
until condemned by the intellectual
element of their mental sphere. There
fore a man must have his mind re-
formed-gain new ideas and ideals
see himself as he is and as he appears
before God. This is reformation, but
is only change of viewpoint. What
is now necessary is change of heart
and motive and practice according to
the new ideal. This is regeneration.
How then is a man made? First,
by acquaintance with self and the
world; then acquaintance and expert
ence intellectually with God and the
things of God, and a judgment and
comparison of them with the things
of self and the world; finally, a giving
up of the delights of self and the
world for the sake of themselves and
learning to experience delight and joy
in service of the Lord and the neigh
Dor. This is a mana man of large
view and great power"

is an evidence of the watchfulness of
the Catholic Church to allow no inno-
vations in faith which would tend in
any way toward the minimizing of the
doctrine which the church has main
tanned for twenty centuries as the doc
trine of Christ.
"Schism and heresy have always met
with condemnation, even though at
times this has meant the cutting off
of entire nations from union with the
church. The truth of God and the sal
walton Of man were in question:, and
the church was the witness of the
truth and the commissioned teacher of
it. So far as the Catholic Church is
concerned there is absolute unity of
belief. and absolute unity of doctrinal
teaching"
