TINE is TEACHING THE TRUTH
Rev. Thomas r. Rouse Talks ON the
Worlds Progress.

worlds Progress.
THE Truth was the theme of the ser
mon by Rev. T. f. Rouse in the First
Congregational church Sunday morning.
Think of what a wide field Truth really
is. Take any one of the sciences. chem
istry for instance and think of the vast
body Of knowledge that has been accumu-
lated on that one scientific subject But
although the truths I'm chemistry have al
ways been the same and remain unchanR-
Ing, the relations of mems minds to those
facts do change. The truth that we know
today is very different from the truth we
knew yesterday. a man who knew now
only as much as a man of the same rela-
tive education twenty years ago would
be very ignorant.
I'VE receive this truth by what might
be called the special organ OF truth. As
we grow older and wiser this organization
becomes more sensitive and more useful
and the perception we have of unohanging
truth becomes more reasonable.
"And as truth thus grows for us In
science and In every other branch of
knowledge, can we believe that IL does not
grow also In religion7 DO we not know
more of reli gion as the world grows older;
can we not learn more Of it7
I'VE hear much of the good old times
when the current of belief was so strong
and steady Yet, we can also remember
that in those times the devout churchmen
thought only burning was good enough for
witches. In those days when the Quakers
came to this country the devout could
scarcely decide whether to hang them or
to send them into the wilderness. In our
own modern times we can find Instances
Of men OF different denominations working
side by side for brotherhood and for
Christianity. So our knowledge of the
Truth Is becoming broader and more Sc
cure"

Erection Of Naval Buildings at Pearl

Owing to the condition Of tho earth n,

dock at Pearl Harbor. Hawaii. the Navy
Department has extended the time for
the completion Of that station for six
months. It Is now thought the station
will not be in operation before the lat

has been found necessary to make a
piling foundation for the drydock. The
bottom of the excavation is composed of
soft lava mud and coral formation, which
will not withstand the weight of the
drydock. Soundings indicate that it will
be necessary to go at least fifty feet be-
low the bottom of the dock to secure a
solid foundation. AS 1t would be use
less 10 erect the buildings for the plant
until the dock is completed, 1t has been
decided by the Navy Department to de-
fer work upon the buildings about six
months.
