things but that don't remove them from

don't like to think there Is a hell is no
reason for believing that II doesn't exist.
"Fellows who don't believe in hell asked
me why God didn't kill the devil In the
very beginning OF things. Well, ! suppose
God didn't want to leave those fellows
orphans If 1t is reasonable to hold out
a hope Of eternal reward for doing good.
It is Just as reasonable to believe in eter-

the doctrine of future retribution; If we

TYPES OF DOORS OF GOOD
Rev. f. A. Bowers Lauds Christ
Wav" of Aiding Others

There are three types Of doers Of good
in this world" said the Rev. +. A. Bow
ers today al the MONDAY Lenten services
in Old St Johns Lutheran Church, Race
street below 9Th
our first type is very common one"
he said. "and one your pastor meets too
often at funerals. We can always expect
what is coming when we are called aside
by an interested mouruer and mysteriously
told that the deceased was n good fellow.
If he was "a married man we are too fre-
quently I'm a home Of sGualor You know
the man good to all men, but to those of
his own flesh If 1t Is not the home of
poverty you will find other marks that
Indicate the tyne-a proud woman hiding
behind her grief children with scared
memories God forgive that we should
be this kind OF doer.
"The second type is the man who will
do good for others il he sees that he will
do good for himself He is generally
hiCh.dagree pharisce. When he does his
good he clothes himself In the full rcgalia
Of his odprifcrous order. His goodness

WEDNESDAY, PENITENCE DAY
DR.. Tomkins Urges Lenten Worship
ers to Make Peace With God

"wednesday is the day of repentance,
On this day repent ye of your sins" was
the thought of the Rev Dr. Floyd w
Tomkins, rector of Holy Trinity Protest.
ant Episcopal Church, in a sermon at the
MONDAY Lenten service today at Old
Christ Church, Cd and Market streets
"It Is fitting that Wednesday should be
the day of repentance for on this day
Judas arranged to betray his Master.
Wednesday is a day of sorrowfUl, yet
hopeful, confession to God. He will bend
His ear to our forgiveness at any time,
but must we not think that His ear is all
the more willing when His breast is full
of sorrow at the memory Of that great sin
of Judas?
Let us set aside Wednesdays for the
Acknowledgements of our transgressions.
Let us confess them and turn from them.
Then we are forgiven for our sins and can
go on our way refreshed in body and
soul"
Doctor TomlIins said that repentance
meant right about face"-a complete
change in attitude.

FATHER BUTLER DEFENDS
DOCTRINE OF PUNISHMENT
Lenten Speaker Also Warns Against
Envy of Rich

The doctrines Of certain modern reli-
gionists who maintain that God Is too
mercirul to torture souls in hell were
attacked by the Rev John d. Butler in a
Lentcn sermon today at Old St Joseph's
Church. vikings alley.
Father Butler also warned Catholics
to abstain from envy of the rich" The
sight of the rich" he said. "tenpts some
to become Socialists or Nihilists. Many
poor people would like to be worldly rich
If possible"
In dealing with religionists who say
there is no hell. Father Butler said
you may find some people who hold
that there is no hell that the words Of
our Lord are not to be taken literally.
Cod, they say, is too good, too kind to
nnct such punishment even on his enc
mics. But II we are willing to take the
word Of our Lord there is no doubt on
the subject. He teaches us clearly that
there Is a state in which demons and men.
who have died in mortal sin will be pun
ished forever with terrible punishmeuts."
