We Need Organization.

A generation ago, when asked why
they were Methodists, etc, people
would say, my fathers religion is
good enough for me. " Today brass
band is preferable to the fathers church
People say, Live an honest, moral life
and God will save you" All necessary
is to believe in Christ and you will be
saved as was the thief on the cross.
God, to be the author of peace, and not
confusion must have an organization.
We see system, order, organization
stand for progression, happiness, life.
No organization means chaos, confusion,
and belief without works stands for
disintegration, misery and death. From
the crude system in Africa up through
the secret societies and kingdoms of
the world to our grand republic, we see
essential to each. Take rules and reg
ulations from the army what would
happen? Suppose we wished to join
the Masons. We see their rites and
ceremonies. Some we think good
others we don't. If / live right and
don't violate any of your rules, think
you ought to let me join. To such an
one Masons say, put away your likes
and dislikes, comply strictly with our
rites and ceremonies and you will re-
ceive protection and fellowship I'm
agine Russian coming here desires
to become an American citizen. He is
told what to do. He replies he is tired
of red tape. He will pay taxes, lead a
good moral life and thinks Uncle Sam
should admit him. What would be the
result? In God and his laws we see
perfect system, order, organization.
Perfect means are adapted to bring
perfect ends. Surely God after exhibit.
ing so perfect a system as adorr and
beauties the earth would not throw
order and law to the breeze and say,
LEAD a moral life, live up to your con-
science and be law unto yourselves. "
On the other hand he says, There is
Oiit Lulu, VIC ldltI1, Oilt DdDJlS1ll.
Except man is born of the water and
the spirit he cannot enter the kingdom
of heaven. Where does he say we can
make our own law. He that believeth
and is baptised shall be saved and he
that believeth not shall be damned. A
young man came to Jesus with moral
life, he hadn't joined the kingdom. He
was 1000 years ahead of his time, or
has he been with us always? People
wish to enter heaven on morality. A
man believes in the bible, yet says
Christ did not leave any organization,
Seek We first the kingdom of God. Now
therefore We are no more strangers and
foreigners, but citizens and saints in
the household of God Sometimes God s
church is called an organization. king
dom, etc. The name is nothing. Does
it require too much to believe that God
will have an Universal straight way or
narrow path? Does Chiist's great
society need less system than Masonry?
If the soldiers of Old Glory need organ
ization do not Gods soldiers need or
ganization? There is one Lord, one
faith, one baptism, one church, and
God in his mercy has rest bred it in
our day. If any man will accept and
obey its principles in good faith he will
receive knowledge from the Father
that he does belong to the household of
God although it might be nicknamed
"Mormonism. " Elder ROBERT r.

Home From California.

Ed. NJ. Rowe gave this office
pleasant call today. He recounted the
events of the recent visit OF himself
and wife to California the land OF
fruit and flowers; told us Of his expert
ence at one of the greatest western
universities and gave us a description
of the leading towns in our sister state.
To him the trip added much in a social
and educational way. Not only did he
study the conditions that render socie-
ties prosperous and happy, but also he
studied several Of the industries from
an economic point of view. The prln-
ciple that specialization in any line
brings success, but variety of interest
fails. is thoroughly exemplefied by our
western neighbors along the coast.
Then. too. Mr.. Rowe came in contact
with many of the greatest minds from
Yale on the east to Stanford on the
west. This privilege alone repaid him
for the energies he expended in mingl-
ing with the learned and enlightened.
Our children will receive this pulse of
new thought in the schools this year.
California is truly sunny land where
there is still room for many an indus
trious settler and desirable citizen.
Enterprise is promoted by every res
dent, growth is on the wing, commerce
spreads wide her sail and therefore our
western sister happily bears the title,
Queen of the Golden West.

Sunday afternoon last the people of
the Third ward listened to literary
lecture by Ed. M, Rowe, During the
time occupied the speaker made on ex-
position of the trend of the desires of
the American public along the line of
pleasure and entertainment and gave
many illustrations bearing out the idea
that places of pleasure can be made
places of social m orality. The theater,
he contends has its place as a leading
educational factor. 1t can be made
school of logical thought and analysis
as well as pleasure garden where the
emotions and Imagination are set at
