The Christian church was well fill
ed with women Monday afternoon
when DIR. Doremus Scudder delivered
clear and concise lecture on Hindu
ism. -....-. y. -. -. -
Hinduism, the religion of India. is
the only one OF TIE great faiths OF
: mainland of which it is true that you
may read 4 number of scholarly
works devoted To Its unfolding and
find them dealing with apparently
totally different themes said DR..
Scudder. THE Hindu religion was
at its best during the Afyan peri0
At that time the people knew how To
build fortressCs and towns, they
practiced monogmy. the miEtreatment
of widows ana orphans was not
known nor was child marriage prac-
ticed, Their hymns, dating hack more
Than a thousand years before Christ,
tell all of this. The Vedoc hymns were
for many years handed down by word
of mouth and became ritual
Gradually a certain class of men of
meditation, known as priests, came to
administer the ritual
As a boay of priests called Brah-
mans came up sacrifice was intro
duced. 1t was at this time that hui
man sacrifice was first practiced and
became so popular that the people
finally came to believe that by making
enough sacrifices they could obtain
a superhuman power from the gods
that was otherwise unattainable to
man. So many offerings were made
that the people became sickened with
blood and a reform was Inevitable. A
reformer, Gautama by name, did come
with a Dand of reforming Brahmans
and their first work was to do away
with human sacrifice.
And SO the reforms in the Hindu
ligion went on 1t seems as though
reform was hardly completed before
it became necessary to reform some
other phase Of the religion. At the
time the people worshipped female
deities conditions were go degrading
that another great reform necessarily

Though the Raymond Teal Musical

Teal still has the Popular theater

appoint the many who expected to
hear his comic stuff for four weeks at
least, he announces the running of a

that will be right up to snuff. Curtis

! ligion CT India is continually being
changed and new branches arise. One
OF the newest OF these thciStical SO.
ciCties il called the Semaies and Is
founded upon the doctrine OF The
EatherhoOd OF God and Brotherhood
of Mankind and is very close to

In his closing words DR.. Seuader
said. India physically and intellectu-
ally is the home OF vast powers, but
powers unrestrained The land has
Ifeen blessed with plenty and cursed
with the most terrible famines in the

of India is the dirge of the triumph
iof lawlessness in mind and matter.
To-day under the developing progress
iof Gods law, Gods law of love re-
vealed in Jesus Christ, India is being
redeemed physically and spiritually
Famines are slowly decreasing and
when Britain shall have harnessed for
human use all the waters that fall
