RABBI EGELS0N PLANS
. MODERN JEWISH CHURCH
Considering the Proposition to
Establish New Congregation
in This City.

Rabbi Louis I. Egelson. who is to sever
his connection with Adas Israel congre-
cation Wednesday, it is said, may decide
to establish new Jewish congregation in
Washington in line with his theories Of
modernism" This line of effort has
been urged upon him, it is explained, and
1t is understood he has expressed dis
tinct fondness for Washington and that
nothing would please him better than to
RENAME here in charge Of a congrega-
ton.
Rumor Without Foundation.
BY invitation of friends he preached
before a Philadelphia congregation
week ago. which gave rise to a statement
that he was to accept charge in that
city. Acceptance of an invitation to a
wedding party in the same city also did
much to spread a rumor that the rabbi
would soon go to the City of Brotherly
Love to take up his residence. There is
no foundation for the rumor, according
to one of the rabbits friends.
Rabbi ESelson preached his final SER
mon to the local congregation Saturday
and conducted his Sabbath school class
yesterday. At the latter meeting the
children, as a surprise, presented him.

SERMONS FOR CHARITY

Charity Sunday designated by the
Associated Charities for the support and
encouragement of works of mercy, was

and moral to further charity.

Sermon by DR.. Pierce.
Rev. DR.. Pierce OF All Souls. Church
brought to a conclusion a series of even
ing sermons on the great commandment,
consideration of the fundamentals Of
religious life His topic last evening was
The Love OF Neighbor, or Social SYM
pathy.''
There are in our city bands of men
and women Who. without calling their
work distinctly religious, are still bent
on Chrlsts mission DR.. Pierce said,
and In an unrecognZed way are full
filling both the first and second half of
this great commandment. / am very
glad IN this connection to pay my per-
sonal tribute to the great work that is
being done in this city by the Associated
Charities. 1t has always seemed pathetic
that this great institution from the ma
ture of things cannot have full credit
for what it actually accomplishes.
The number of men and women in our
city who are literally saved from wrong
conduct, saved from bad houses, saved
from sickness and death by the institu-
ton of the Associated Charities would
make long list The society deserves
great credit and receives it from those
who know of its work. 1t deserves credit
for what 1t does on your behalf in afford
ing you ample means for learning exact
facts regarding applicants for charity
who are otherwise strangers to You.
You will pardon me if I give simply
one instance as an illustration of what
the institution has done for you, whether
you know it or not. \ few Sundays ago

could send her children to some institu-
ton. Then she worked on my sympa-
thies BY saying that she thought it I'M
fortunate in this great enlightened age
that woman could not keep her children
with her. 1t was a letter which struck
me as being genuine. My first impulse
was the same as yours would have been,
to go at once to see her. first getting a
check caShed, or, falling to be able to do
that, at once to send some money to her.
il would be better first to consult the
Associate Charities. and learn IL they
knew of the women or had assisted her at
any time.

Found to Be Imposter.

AT my request they sent a represent
alive to see her. To make long story
short, there was found to be no truth in
her statements. If 1 had given money,
not only would the money have been
wasted, but it would have been worse
than wasted. She would have become a
vampire society. Her wickedneSS
would have encouraged others. Your
money and the money of other people
would have gone not only for nothing,
but for worse.
Now the preventive phase of the work
is dramatic and of great value. Even
that is not the real aim of the institution.
That is only incidental. You and / as
specialists are busy men and women.
We have not time unfortunately in the
completely of twentieth century life to
spend two or three hours in going into a
remote part of the city of which we know
nothing, and in bungling fashion trying
to correct an evil of which we know Moth
ing. Here is an institution which brings
service. Yet the Associated Charities Is
only one of many institutions in our city
which together constitute Gideon S
army, men and women who see that to
love ones neighbor as ones self is like
to the first great commandment, men and
women, who in serving the common hui
man race, are also serving the Father Of
the common human race, and there must
also come to them as it came to others
long ago as they trudge about their tasks
of duty, '1nasmuch as We have done it
unto the least of these, my brethren, We
have done it unto me.
1t is expected that many other pastors
will devote their sermons to charity next
Sunday.
