NAV Rs Serial Affair.

Berlin via London May 2s-Germany's
answer to the American note Is goinG
to be a serial affair. The first install
ment is going forward today, preceded
by verbal expressions of friendship and
good will to Ambassador Gerard.
It is learned that the preliminary
note will not contain Gernlany's deftn-
ite answer, but will be exclusively q
statement Of all the facts In the sew
eral cases involved. as the Germans
see them. with a courteous request to
the American government to confirm
their accuracy in order to reach q
full agreement on the basic facts.
These in the Lusitania case will prob
ably include the important point al
legged by Germany that she was an
auxiliary cruiser and that her cargo
included arms and ammunition. pos
sibly also that the Lusitania waa
armed.
A high official Of the foreign Office ID
authority for the statement that the
idea was first to get all the facts
straight, so as to avoid the possibility
Of Germany and America engaging IN
discussion in which they might base
their cases on facts which were at va
riance-in other words, to get together
on sound working basis.
Germany's full and definite answer
viii follow promptly on receipt Of .ad-
vices that the American government
finds the facts as stated by Germany
to be correct.
It is understood from well-informed
source that the kaiser. despite the
Italian war and multitudinous other
troubles. has been taking q keen and
active personal interest in the answer
to the American note, which has been

PALM BEACH, Fla, Feb. S.-Four
masked bandits climbed on To the OBJ
Servation platform Of the Palm Beach
limited southbOund while the train
was taking water at Stuart, 80 miles
north of here Sunday night, drew re-
volvers on the passengers and then ap-
parently losing their nerve had the
train stopped and escaped without fir

The Palm Beach limited is known
as the "millionaires' train" because il
was one of the most luxurious in the
service.
A brakeman locked the forward
door of the car the moment the alarm
was given. but the bandits forced him
to open 1t and sent all the women
ahead, saying they wanted nothing
from them.

Augustus; T. W. Kirkland. freight

under way.
Forcing these passengers ahead of
them into the car the wOuld-be rob-

all passengers to hold up their hands
Women forced to enter a forward

FAITH is REQUIRED
FOR BELIEF IN GOD
Even Though We Cannot See God We

Henry Il. Davis.

MANS difficulty in believing in
God is that he cannot see Him and
il requires faith" said Rev. Henry
L. Davis. pastor of the First NJ. l..
church, last night in his sermon on
Jesus, the Son of Cod
Even though we cannot see Coo
or feel Him, scientists declare His eX-
istence and also the existence or
faith. While we cannot see God He
is revealed TO us in Christ. Hagel,
SchIeremacher and other great men
Of the past century brought God again
into nature.
Nineteen centuries ago Jesus
christ brought God unto US and re-
vealed Him through our humanity.
,Th4 divinity of Jesus Christ appears.
erst in the revelation we have of Him
in the New Testament; second
through history we have the divinity
Of Him. Even though His divinity
appears in these different ways, stll
we can only realize Hint by expert

How was It that John the Bap-
list discovered Christ? ii was not by
his reading OF the gospels, for he did
not have them TO read, neither was IL

WORLD TODAY IS
WORK OF CHRIST
References Human Life Much
More Than Before His Com
ing Taught That God Holds
Men of Infinite Value.

THE Debt We owe to Christ" was
the subject OF the sermon used by DR..
James L. Gardiner. pastor of the St
Paufs NJ. r.. church Sunday morning,
in which ne said. The birth Of
Christ Is the dividing line between
the old and new civilization. His
coming TO this earth marks the great
est epoch in the history Of mankind.
I'm noting the difference Christ has
brought about in the world, and the
consequent debt OF gratitude we owe
20 Him. for all that He has said and
done, / would remark first, that we
owe much TO Him because He discov-
cred God TO the minds and hearts Of
men. Have you ever thought how
different this world is today. because
Jesus taught US who and what God
is?
Before His coming the world mis-
understood God. They thought or
Him simply as a creator or the moral
governor. Jesus came 10 reveal the
great fact of the divine fatherhood,
and that the essence Of this father
hood Is love.
we owe much to Him too. because
Of His doctrine of man. The world
today reverences human life much
more than the world did when Jesus
visited this earth. And why? 1t is
because He taught that in the sight Of
the Father, every man. woman and
child. was OF infinite value.
I'VE owe much too, to Christ, for
His teaching as to our proper rela-
tons toward our fellows. 1t was
Jesus who said 'Au things whatsO-
ever, that we would that men should
do unto you, do we unto them. IL
was Christ who taught us 10 pray
Forgive US our trespasses as we for
give those who trespass against us. +"
Last night the question discussed
was. Are the Men Outside the Church
Opposed to the Teachings of Christ2'
This was the third in a series OF five
evening sermons on the general topic,
Men and the Church of Today. The
question TO be considered next Sun
day evening is, should the Churches
Provide a Substitute for the SalOon?'
