AFFLICT|NG EVILS WILL
VANISH, SAYS MINISTER
Rev. R. E. Blight Declares People
Tired of Worshiping Po-
IticaI Mud Gods

I'm days of old the nations gave OF
their gold, their jewels, their most
precious adornments of which to make
their gods, but our popular gods are
made Of mud" declared Reynold r..
Blight, minister of the Los Angeles
Fellowship, yesterday morning. 1--WE
are professedly a Christian nation, buL
should Christ appear in our legislative
halls he would be laughed to scorh
should he enter the drawing rooms or
society he would be voted a bore, and
should he lift his voice in the markets
he would be stoned. We Vociferously
proclaim our allegiance to the truth,
unselfshness and idealisnl, and turn 70
grovel before our dirt gods.
I'm politics we worship the mud
god of expediency. In political coun-
sells the question of righteousness is
seldom raised, but ever and always we
ask what is the expedient thing. We
avoid moral issues, compromise princi-
pies and give heed to low prudence.
AS a result our politics is a stencil m
the nostrils of decency.
But these mud gods are totterlng
on their thrones. Their worshipers are
gradually tecoming ashamed o2 their
worship Socr we shall bend our knees
in homage to the God cf truth, of rlSl:-
eousncss, of sincerity, of love, AMI The
evils that afflict us, politically, social
ly. industrially, shall vanish"

PATRONAL
FEAST At ST. V|NCENT'S
Two Bishops Commemorate the
Translation of Relics of
Great Churchman

The patronal feast of the Church of
st. Vincent de Paul was celebrated
yesterday with beautifully solemn SER
vices in commemoraton of the trans
lation of the relics of st. Vincent.
founder of the Congregation of the
Missions. Bishop Conaty, head of the
diocese of Monterey and Los Angeles,
ceuebrated solemn pontifical mass at
10;30 o'clock
The elaborate Easter musical pro-
gram was repeated at the solemn mass,
at which Rt. Rev. John ]. Keane of
Cheyenne, Wyo., preached the sermon
Bishop Keane spoke at length on
the life and works of st. Vincent de
Paul, founder of the Vincentian order
of priests and the Sisters of Charity
The bishop said in part
"St. Vincent de Paul walked along
the way and reached the heights-not
that he was fired with any ambition
save. that to show forth the Christ
France in his day was afflicted. She
has not seen such an age since, though
she has gone down to lower depths
nor Is 1t likely that she ever will wit
ness such a trial and fate as that
which her children bore in the days of
St Vincent de Paul. He came with
the spirit of the Good Shepherd He
loved for Christ.
I'VE marvel that a country so lost as
France was on the day of his ordina-
ton should present to the world on
the day of his death so beautiful an
image of Christianity planned in the
distant east by apostles with ideals of
beauty. goodness and holiness, not
only conceiving and realizing in the
lives of the multitudes within the
century and without, but who, when
he began his ministry knew not God
and cared not for Jesus Christ"

URGES THE NECESSITY
OF A WORKING CREED
The Rev. William H. Day Declares
Simplicity Must Be the
Beginning

In the ninth chapter of the Gospel
of st. Mark we find man who wanted
a creed that would work. The great
physician of Galilee had just told him
that all things are possible to him
that believeth.' His old unbelief was
powerless to help that sick boy. Even
his traditional creed which he had
learned as a boy would not serve in
that hour of need. He must have as
his working creed something absolutely
real. Many of you have not been able
to accept the traditional creeds of the
church, but you would give much to
find a working creed that would pro-
duce results in efficient living"
These were the opening words of a
sermon at the First Congregational
church yesterday by the pastor, Will
liam Horace Day, on the subject, "A
Working Greed.
"A working creed must begin in sim
plicity, must grow toward complete
ness and must rest on absolute sin
cerity.
Though you may not be able to ac-
cept all the articles of one of the his
toric creeds do not forget it's sanctty.
Frederic Harrison has said that the
Parthenon has sanctity because its
threshold was trodden by Pericles, So
crates and Plato. Precious is ma
donna of Bellini, a manuscript OF
Dante, a song of Mozart or statue
by Phidias. DR.. Hills has carried this
a step further. saying: Far more
precious and sacred are these old creeds
which are like cathedrals across whose
thresholds of faith have passed the in
Vulnerable multitudes of generations
now gone"

VALUE OF MAN MUST Be
UPHELD BY CHURCHES
Human Beings Are Wasted, While
Riches Are Saved, Says
Or. Brougher

DR.. ]. w. Brougher yesterday morn
ing preached to a large congregation
at the Temple Baptist auditorium on
The Value of. Man." He took for
his text, Luke IA: 1-6, where Jesus
asked the lawyers and Pharisees the
question, "It is lawful to heal on the
abbath, or not?" And He said unto
them. Which of you shall have an
ass or an OK fallen into well, and
will not straightway draw him out on
Sabbath day?'"
Among other things, Dr. Brougher
said; THE humor, the sarcasm, the
irony, of the situation as Jesus faced
it are well set forth in this text. The
lawyers and Pharisees were willing to
ignore the law of the Sabbath In or
der to pull an OK or an ass out of a
ditch but they condemned Jesus for
healing a sick man on that day. OF
course they would pull the OK or the
ass out of the ditch, for oxen and dom
keys cost money in the markets of
Jerusalem. If an OK fell into ditch
and broke his leg he would be alb
solutely useless-he would be finan-
cial loss They hastened to save the
OK or the ass because they would have
to pay money to get new one. But
it was different with a man. The men
could ole ana II would not CoSl lhell
any money. If you break machinery
you have to pay for the repairs but
If you break hearts you can get more
for nothing. The philosophy of the
ancient lawyers and Pharisees is not
dead today. It was against this ma
terialistic philosophy that Jesus pro-
nounced his most forceful sayings.
rs man worth more than beast or
a bird? Jesus Christ asked this ques-
tion with all seriousness. He said
'Behoud, the birds of the heavens, are
ye not of much more value than they|
Still, it was a fact that the Phari-
sees put q higher value upon the beasts
and upon the birds than they did upon
man. The ass, the OK, and the fowls
of the air were of more value than
men. There are so-called homes in
America where a poodle dog is regard
ed as of more value than a child.
Jesus Christ believed that all men
were worth saving. He made no dis
tinction as to race, color or condition.
1t is for the church Of Christ to show
its appreciation of mans value by
being willing to secriflce time, talent,
powers and money for the salvation
of the world"

POLICE ARE BAFFLED
BY MURDER OF BROOKS
Perkins Denies Former ConfeS-
sion and May Be Released
~ After Investigation

Despite the efforts of officers work.
ing under the direction of Chief of
Detectives Paul Flammer no headway
has been made toward learning the
identity of the two men who robbed a
saloon at Thirty-eighth street and Gen.
trail avenue and soon after held up
and killed Patrolman David Brooks at
Thirtieth street and Grand avenue.
There are several suspects in the city
Jail who are awaiting investigation.
They were arrested Saturday.
r. F. Perkins, known as Red" Per-
kins, a crippled newsboy, who was the
first man taken into custody because
of his having related a remarkable
story of the affair, still is in the city
Jail While drunk he told a story of
having been in an automobile with
the bandits and of having been a short
distance away when the saloon was
held up and when Patrolman Brooks
was killed. and gave the officers mi
mute details of their movements.
The detectives are satisfied Perkins
is not guilty of completely in the
crimes, but believe he knows the iden-
tity of the men who are wanted.
When seen in the city Jail yesterday
Perkins declared that his strange story
was a fabrication and that he was
under the influence of liquor the night
the murder was committed and con-
cocted the story for the purpose of
achieving notoriety.
II was no farther south than Seventh
street the entire night" said Perkins
yesterday. 81 had been drinking at
several saloons and was intoxicated
when / appeared at a pool room in
South Spring street. Soon after leaV-
ing the pool room met fellow and
he told me that a policeman had been
killed by two men after the latter had
robbed a saloon in Central avenue.
"I visited several saloons after hear
ing this and finally telephoned the mat
ter to the police station and said that
I knew the men who committed the
crimes"
Several persons say they saw Perkins
near First and Broadway directly be-
fore the holdup and murder and it is
thought the newsboy will be released
within a few days
An inquest will be held at the under
taking establishment of Overholtzer &
Mills company today.

ARRANGING MIRRORS

If your dressing room contains two
mirrors, of which only one Is of extra
length, dress before the smaller one,
and have the latter so situated on the
opposite side of the room that you
can see your back while your toilet is
in progress. This is much more satis-
factory in every way than picking up
hand mirror at intervals.
