BISHOP GARLAND'S PLEA
Tells Lenten Audience Duty of Aiding
the Needy.

Bishop suffragan Thomas j. Garland
addressed a large audience at the noon
day Lenten service at the Garrich Thea
tire this afternoon on "one Thing Thou
Lackest" He drew his story from the
parable of the rich young man.
This young man, so the story goes, once
asked Christ what he could do to make
himself a perfect Christian. The answer
was "Give away your money" The
young man said he could not do this.
and he thus failed in his first test.
Being rich Is no sign Of ungodliness."
said Bishop Garland. ut Is being able
to be rich and yet be godly that counts.
Our one great lack is in having nothing
to do l do not refer to the unemployed
who cannot help themselves. We should
do all we can to help these men. No
matter how rich we are, We should find
something to do. 1t occupies the mind.
1t is not the manner in which we live
that counts so much as the love we show
in living

BISHOP TALBOT SPEAKS
Prelate Appeals for Communion with
God in Daily Life.

God in Daily Life.
Unless YOU have in your home and
heart an upper room facing squarely upon
the sky looking out upon horizon
pounded by nothing nearer than the stars,
ana see God. YOU are not living in the
world for which you were intended"
This was the keynote Of an address
made by Bishop Ethelbert Talbot. OF the
Diocese OF Bethlehem, at the MONDAY
services today in st. Stephens Episcopal
church, 10th street above Chestnut.
Bishop Talbot said the philosophers are
informing the world that each mans i'm
preston of things around him Is the only
reality before him. Viewed from this
light, he declared, an endless variety Of
worlds are presented.
Speaking after the manner Of such
men, the Bishop said Christ did not live
in much Of world SO far as outward
environment was concerned. He called
attention TO the birth OF Christ in n
iTanger and his death between two
thieves, and said that when Christ was
asked where he lived he told his uues-
tioners to come and see."
"our Lord had sense of divine COM
panionship," he concluded. 'He had a
sense Of mission. He had the spirit of
service. We can all have these three
great inspirations OF life."

DIVINE POWER ON EARTH
The Rev. c. M. Jacobs Explains 1t as
Authority.

"Christs Power Upon the World and
tho Way He Used IT, was the subject
of the MONDAY Lenten sermon preached
today by the Rev. C. NJ. Jacobs. of the
Lutheran Theological Seminary, at st.
Johns Lutheran Church, Race and 6th
streets. The speaker said that the power
of Christ is spoken of not as power in
the ordinary sense. but as authority.
"This," he said. has the guarantee
and the limitations of power. There were
things that Christ could not do, because
they would have been beyond His au-
thority. He could not refuse to die and
He could not perform a miracle for
Herod.
For the one thing that He came to
do His power was perfect and complete.
That one thing was to give eternal life.
Eternal life Is life lived In and by the
love of Cod
