DISCUSSES STORY
Of CAIN AND ABEL
Rev. J. |. Gardiner Declares
Man is His Brothers
Keeper.

Am Ny Brothers Keeper 80
was the vital and timely question
discussed last evening 10y Rev. James
L Gardiner. D. D., before a large
audience 81 St PauTs Memorial
Methodist Episcopal church
You Will remember" said DR.
Gardiner. THE circumstances under
which this question was first asked.
cain had killed his brother Abel and
then God had come 10 the murderer
and had asked him Where is thy
brother Abel? Cain instead OF aC-
knowledging that he had killed his
brother: instead Of falling down be-
fore his Maker and asking forgive
ness for the wrong he had done, re-
piled in the language Of the text.
Am / my brothers keeper?
This then is the thrilling ques-
tion OF the worlds first murderer
20 which / would direct your at
tention tonight Ii is an old ques-
ton. II was asked as YOU see many
many centuries ago and yet IL is a
very modern question II Is one that
we would do well to ponder tonight
Ann l. my brothers Keeper
Reply OF Cain Selfish.
The manner ina Which Cain re-
Piled to the Almighty implies that
he did not feel himself responsible
Tor his brother. The reply of Cain
IS the reply that has been given by
the selfish and sinful human heart
in all ages Of the world
But thank God the answer Of
cain, the answer of human selfish
ness is not the answer of Jesus Of
Nazareth. With a voice loud and
strong for three years Jesus by His
words and by His life and by His
death taught that we were respon-
sible for our brother. Then there
came one called Paul, a follower
"a the Nazarene. who taught that
we who are strong ought 20 bear
the inhrmities Of the weak and that
III some poor weak brother be over
taken in a fault that we who are
spiritual ought TO restore him in the
spirit OF meekness.
Jesus and Paul Right.
II am glad 20 say that in open
ing years of the goth century we
are coming 10 see that Jesus and
Paul and not Cain were right. once
we thought that human slavery was
right. but under the sublime teach
ing Of Jesus Christ, slavery in Eng
land and the United States was
abolished SO that now there are no
slaves under the Union Jack or the
Stars and Stripes. Once we thought
the compelling of children 10 labor
was right. but / trust that under the
teaching Of the one who taught as
never man taught that the time will
soon come when neither in this
country or any other land will chill
dren Doe compelled 10 labor that mill
or factory owners may make fat
dividends.
Am 1 my brothers keeper? We
today answer yes. and thus will
continue 10 send our missionaries
10 foreign fields 10 preach the gos-
pei of good hdings to those who sit
in darkness. until the Kingdoms Of
this world become the Kingdoms OF
our Lord and His Christ"
The sermon was strongly en-
forced by motion pictures on the
story OF "Cain and Abel" and on
children Who Labor" The latter
picture was produced in coopera-
tion with the national committee Of
child labor.

What do you think OF my construc-

Helen's gaze rested modestly on her
table. She seemed to contemplate the
picture with q quiet pleasure. Then
she looked slowly up at seagrue.
This doesn't show very much OF the
camp'-she drawledp the words the
very least bit-"you are awfully busy
over there. ] suppose aa
Never too busy TO welcome our

close and lock the desk after he had
taken the task out. How, she asked
berself. was she to get that desk open

Seagrue dismissed his serving man,
and this did not allay Helen's uneasi-
ness for herself. She did not want
to he left alone ! minute with him
now; things were getting too compli-
Gated. But could she IN some way
get into the desk!
Rising. she said she would clear the
table a little. Taking hold of the flask
he had just taken from the desk and
holding out her hand with a smile she
asked him for his keys. Seagrue was in
no position to refuse SO intimate a re-
quest. With an air OF camaraderie he
handed them over and Helen pushed
back the cover OF the desk. But as
she did SO Seagrue threw his arms
around, her. She struggled indignant
~, but could not get away. For a mo-
fn1entt there was q fierce struggle.
Then with q superhuman effort she
tore herself free, caught up the first
thing she could lay her band ont

He went completely over, leaving
Helen horror-stricken at what she had
done. She listened. Outside she
heard no sound. Selling the blue
print that lay under her hand. she
gained the door and ran out just as
Seagrue regainod his feet. She had
resolved to nag the Limited. Hardly
touching the earth. she dashed to the
station. hurried to the key and tele-
graphed R~hinelander:
"Have blue print of survey. Will

Il was not too soon. Through tho

the platform. She slammed the office

FOURTH DEGREE KNIGHTS TO IN.
STiTUTE EXERCISES IN CON-
MEMORATION.

With regard to the celebrations
planned for Washington's birthday by
the Knights of Columbus, Colonel P
H. Callahan, Louisville, KY, and Johr
H. Reddin, of Denver, Colo, Supreme
Master of the Fourth Degree, have
laid the foundation for the Fourth
Degree Knights taking charge of the
patriotic activities of the order.
AS a result, a plan for nation
wide commemoration of Washington's
birthday has been evolved. Thirty o.
the leading and largest cities of the
country have been selected, and ar
orator of national prominence will be
sent to each city to deliver an ad
dress. The subjects and exercises will
be patriotic, and the Fourth Degree
assembly in each of the cities will
provide a public auditorium or thea
ire, and the lectures will be free tc
the public. The addresses will be
made by the most prominent knights
in the country-judges, United States
senators, governors and others.
1t is expected that deep impress
sion will be made on the public mind
and that anti-Catholic prejudice will
be to some extent allayed. It is prob
able that the Fourth Degree will make
the celebration of Washington's birth
day an annual event. It is not in
tended to go outside of the order fol
speakers.
The principle of the Fourth Degree
of the knights of Columbus is patriot
ism. This subject will hereafter be
taken up in national way. Matters
of that kind have been managed here
tofore by the order in general, but
from now on the Fourth Degree is
expected to lead in them.

UNDER SECRETARY A CATHOLIC,

Appointment Of William Patrick Byrne
In Dublin Of Great Importance.
Great surprise has been manifested
by the appointment of William Patrick
Byrne as under secretary for Ireland.
Mr.. Byrne is an Irishman and Cath.
olic. He has been very successful in
the English home Office where he has
taken an active interest in social re-
forms. There is belief in many quar-
tiers that this appointment is but the
beginning of series of radical
changes in England's policy towards
