ACQUISITION mystical religion pretends
to ensure, modern man has learned
THAT these are attained not by indi
viduals who withdraw from worldly
pursuits and devote> themselves to
supernatural concerns, but by those
who avail themselves most success
fully of the spiritual resources of
their fellow-men, as these are devel-
oped through personal association and
cooperation. Herein a cleaning
jewel of truth is certainly caught on
the prongs of error. The modern
man" would make perfect society
out of religion; so would, and also
has, Christ. But surely the best
means of securing the general good
is to devote time and attention to the
study of the Source of all good This
does not mean that terrestrial con
Germs are to be quite neglected in the
interim. Mystical religion never
taught that a man should gluttonA
ousIy feed his soul on God and let his
family starve If Professor Wright
has monasticism particularly in mind,
he should recall that monks never
constituted more than a meager part
of any Christian community. He
might reflect also upon the fact, which
has always obtained, that.
Enough there are who reap and SOW,
Enough who give their lives to
common gain,
Enough who toll with spade and axe
and plane,
Enough who sail the seas where rude
winds blow,
Enough who plead in courts and
physic pain.
Undeniably saints in no way hurt
society by being such. Assuredly
they gave the greedy world examples
of abnegation which it sorely needed.
The Professor forgets that real sane
tity is heroic unselishness. The
names that find place in the eccles-
iastical calendar are those of the men
and women who lived, and often died,
for others, Nor let sneer be passed
on the contemplatiye recluse God
only knows how frequently the lily
white prayer, rising from lowly cell,
has restrained the divine wrath from
pulverizing our Ubiquitous sphere. In
a word, he who loves God, lives and
labors corporeally or spiritually, for
the objects of Gods love: men.
If Professor Wright would peer
more closely into Catholic Christian
ity, he would see that it has all the
merits of the proposed religion Of
democracy, none of the defects, and
far more sublimity than any merely
man made scheme ever possessed or
ever shall.-Edward F. Murphy, M. "A.

THE RELIGION OF THE FUTURE

Now that men, heart-sick with
tickle temperatures, are beginning to
turn once more to the skies, they be-
hold the Star of Bethlehem, alleged
to have been extinguished by the
French directory about a decade back,
sparkling as majestically as it did
two thousand years ago over Judea's
hills. 1t is indubitable that religion
is again coming into it's own; indeed
to what could the quivering soul
cling in the present mad seethe of hui
man affairs save to the Rock of Ages?
Our novelty-loving modern spirit of
thought, however, is stirring mischief
into the great revival. Instead of adj
vocating a return to the sterling form
of faith on which the centuries have.
stamped their approval, scholars are
striking out along lines of their own.
From the pages of the Forum, Henry
w. Wright, professor of Lake Forest
College, breathes representatively
misleading concept of what the re-
ligion of the future will be.
In place of the creed of Christ for
which hearts are so hungrily calling,
he modestly and generously substi-
tutes a religion of his own. The pur-.
pose of his preferred system is to
lsurpass prevailing types of Christian
ity-to sway men more effectually.
Briefly, he would saturate religion
with democracy until the mustiness
of centuries is washed out. He would
make social, rather than individual
perfection, the aim of religion: an
parently oblivious that Christianity
has always aimed at both.
Mr.. Wright is a philosopher. One
can not but judge his incursion into
the field of theology rather rash.
Surely it would be better for him to
let divines determine our religious
needs. But, able in things of the
mind, he can not resist the tempta-
ton to prescribe for the heart too.
Genius is VIGOROUSLY and painfully
lop-sided. No wonder the Wright
doctrine is perilously unsteady.
The assumption on which DUR Pro-
lessons thoughts evidently rest, the
failure of prevailing forms of Chris
tianity, is obviously queasy. Not to
Christianity, but to dispensation of
Christ which, if duly observed. does
not make for the ennobling of in
dividnals and humanity That with
Gods grace we have had sufficient
lstrength to conform to the law il we
willed to do so. conscience can tell.

as master of the religious world and
set about knocking down what Christ
and the piety OF centuries put up?
Professor Wright does.
Says he, confidently: Modern
man secures his own natural exist
ence and well-being not by bargain
ing for divine protection against
natural ills but by gaining mastery
over natural forces through his own
experimental science, inventive skill
and technical proficiency. He does
not rely upon divine Providence to
protect him from ship wreck at sea !;
he makes a compass, constructs a
steamship, invents the wireless tele-
graph From which the Professor
deducts that the old prudential type
of religion is far behind our times.
Let him cast his gaze across the
Atlantic and undeceiVe himself.
Modern man so wondrously capable,
according to Mr.. Wright, of providing
for himself, has strangely created for
himself fairly good inferno. The
Shiny serpent of sin and excess, which
has been slowly coiIing about the
globe and sitting the lives OF nations,
Originally crept forth from the very
principle which the Professor approx.
ingly depicts: self sufHciency. The
powers OF self are instruments that
Eventually kill, unless God is rever-
emily permitted to direct US In their

tally in our own sad day, for parley.

Therefore, Be it resolved that this
Pomona grange through its Master and
Secretary ask our county court to ap-
point our present county engineer as

This resolution brought out consider
able discussion and fully exposed the
almost imperative system of road laws
we now have. And owing to the CON-
plication of our road laws and believ-
ing this is the easiest and least expen-
sive and most efficient way out of our
trouble the above resolution carried.

sembled this, the 10th of February,
1915, do urge of our two representa-
tives and senator now in our legisla-
ture to vote against Sen. B. 81, unless
it can be so amended as to strike out
all powers given to the Railroad Com
mission and also to permit the use of
the law in any local community of the
state, and

large state road fund of about 81 ,000,-

of six men, who may or may not be
road builders, and -
Whereas, We have many illustra-
tions where such large appropriations
handled by similar body of men have
proven to be both expensive and un-
satisfactory,
Therefore. BE it Resolved, That our
representatives and senator from this

H. B. 249.
Carried unanimously.
Our press committee made a very
lengthy report on the utility bill, and
we regret that space and time Will
not permit of some of the arguments
they have placed before our legisla-
tors. The same might be said relative
to the road bill, hence they were in
structed to continue their good work.
Our next Pomona grange will meet
at Odell the third Wednesday in May.
Remember, we only meet four times a
year, so let US be ready for better
and more profitable days meeting than
any we have had. All public or eco
nomcal questions affecting the inter-
ests of the farmers are especially de-
sired to be presented for discussion and
action thereon. Hence get your
thoughts in concise form to be pre-
sented at our next Pomona grange at

NOTES OF THE
POMONA GRANGE

| The Hood River county Pomona
| range held their second meeting at
Pine Grove grange all last Wednesday
and it certainly was a splendid meet
ing. All of the oranges in the county
were we'll represented and the almost
| impossible roads did not deter their
coming. The Parkdale grangers are
full of the real grange spirit for they
came all the way down to Pine Grove
IN large numbers, and in doing so
passed through several climatic zones.
Some of them started in slelghs with
over foot of good sleighing snow un-
derneath them and they passed through
the various climatic changes until they
landed at Pine Grove grange hall sur
| rounded with mud and water almost as
deep as the snow they left at home.
When the Masters gavel fell all of
our IL officers were in their chairs, ex
| cept one. This is a good record. If
| the officers of any organization are
punctual and take interest in their or
ganizaton then the members are sure
to follow. The morning session was
mostly taken up with reports of the
! secretaries of The various oranges in
our county. At present we must take
off our hats to Parkdale, both in num-
bers and doing things. Some of US
Lower Valley people are wondering if
there are any up there who are not
grangers. If so, we are sure they
would have to go some to give good
reason for not being.
Fifteen new Pomona members were
obligated, after which our press COM
mittee made quite lengthy report
telling of their action in handling some
of the legislative bills, now being con-
sidered at our legislature. The report
was heartily endorsed and vote of
thanks was given with instruction to
continue their correspondence with our
legislators until the session is over.
Perhaps it is needless to say just
what took place about one o'clock,
when the ladies from our grange an
nounced that all were wanted in the
dining room. We obeyed orders and
were we'll paid for doing so. At 2
O'Clock everybody was back in the hall
ready for our real interesting work.
The first on the program was the initi-
alton of large class of fifth degree
members. We were again favored with
the presence of Sister Hattie Vail.
state organizer, who ably assisted in
placing before US the impressive de-
gree work of Pomona. After this came
very interesting literary program,
arranged by our Worthy Lecturer, Mrs.
Nettie Kemp Crockett. 1t made some
of the Older ones, smile to hear some
of the readings given which were just
as good 40 years ago as now. 1t is said
that history repeats itself, hence some
very popular songs and readings of 81
years ago are quite fashionable now.
Our committee on resolutions was
presented with several important reso.
lutlons and they reported favorably
upon the following resolutions:

county court has been petitioned tc

HAWAIIAN VIEWS
FOR Kl]HIO'
At WASHINGTON


From among the large stock CT pie-
lures of Hawaii that have collected at
the Promotion Committee rooms, As
sistant Secretary Taylor is sending
several large framed views to Wash
ington where they will be placed in
the rooms of the Hawaiian delegate.
The committee is also putting forth
efforts to stock up more fully the pres
ent library Of city directories. The
library was first started through gifts
of directories from r. w. Robinson,
superintendent of the Polk-Husted Di-
rectory Company of this city, who from
his list has supplied the committee
with many books. IL. order to increase
this supply letters have been recently
sent to nearly so cities of the main
land, asking that the 1914 directory be
forwarded here as soon as the one
for the present year is complete.
BY this means the books are secured
very cheaply and the library is con-
tinually growing. The San Francisco
directory was received yesterday.
The big wall map of the islands that
has. hung over the secretary's desk
for some years has been taken down
for remodeling. Steamship, automo-
bile and other routes will be placed
upon it.
