The Herald's Weekly Sermonette
THE NEEDED CHURCH OF TODAY
By HENRY ALLEN TUPPER, DID, LID
Pas First Baptis hmch

The church is not a fixed organ
ism. and it must be capable Of re-,
spending to and vOicinE the deep
est, truest aspirations and lOngings
of the changing world about it
The mission of the church is to
capture, mould. direct and Chris
tianize the tremendous forces that
are shaping the age. Materially.
mentally and morally. an unsettling
revolution has swept through all
the channels of human existence;
and while the truth of God and the
gospel OF Christ remain cternally
the same, in their essence, the
church must introduce this truth
and this gospel in new ways and by
new methods, adapted to changed
conditions. What is needed in the
church of today?
1st-An Attractive Church. Next
to the home. the church should be
the most attractive place on earth,
to persons of all ages. all classes
and all conditions; but. alas, it is
often the most unattractivc. The
average church services are proSaic
and wearisome in the extreme. Ec-
clesiastical ruts, dOlCful music, tire
some and somniferous sermons and
gloomy surroundings are the chief
characteristics. Many of our
churches are fine ice plants; others
are comfortable dormitories. To
remedy this evil of dulness. it is
not necessary to resort to sensa-
tional expedients; but to interest
we must be interesting. The church
edifice should be homelike and beau
tiful; the exercises should be bright.
breezy and brief, and the pulpit
should ring out with messages of
joy. love and hope.
2d-An Instructive Church. The
prime object of the church is
not to entertain. but to teach. The
worlds greatest preacher was the
worlds greatest teacher; and to all
the people what an impressive
teacher he was! In our day the
educational ideal is a master pas
sion. and the. church must see that
it is met and moulded by the Christ
spirit.
3d-A Progressive Church. 1t must
not move by jerks, like the automo-
bile that is propelled by explosions;
low; and it should blaze the path
through the wilderness of sin, sorrow
and suffering toward the city of God.
4th-A Responsive Church. The
church was organized under the power
of the omniscient Spirit of God, to re-
spond to the highest and holiest needs
of humanity. The great movements
of our times must be captured and
Christianized; and the church is the
divine agency for this supremely i'm
portant service. Social currents can
be guided. utilized and made a bless
ing by properly equipped and inspir-
ed church. but self-sacriiice not self
satisfaction must be the watchword.
5th-A Christie Church. Within the

lures the Sunday School is undertak-

SUE "BIG five"
SAYS MURDOCH
Federal Trade Member As
serts Investigation Proves
Collision.

Victor Murdock. OF the Federal
Trade Commission, told the House
Interstate Commerce Committee
yesterday that the Department of
Justice would doubtless proceed
against the big five" packers un-
der the Sherman antitrust act.
According to Mr.. Murdoch, the
facts and information gained by the
commissions investigation of the
packers have been turned over to
the Department of Justice. Mr..
Murdoch asserted that the division
Of stock by the big packers was by
collusion and agreement rather
than by chance, as the packers con-
tend. Enactment of a bill pending
to regulate the packing industry
was urged by Mr.. Murdoch.
The Importance of enacting legis-
Iation that would make the refrig-
orator cars owned by the big pack
ers common carriers was stressed
by c. c. McChord. chairman of the
Interstate Commerce Commission.
Mr.. McChord declared that he was
opposed to government ownership
of the packing plants, but was very
much in favor Of drastic govern
mental regulation
He also suggested an amendment
to the interstate commerce act that
would eliminate mixed shipments in
refrigerator cars.

PIGEONS AMONG
HEROES OF WAR
Lecturer Baynes Describes
Thrilling Incidents Of
Animal Help.

Thrilling stories of animal inter
est" were related by Ernest Harold
Raynes, known as "the man who
saved the buffalo" when he told
members of the National Geographic
Society at the New Masonic Temple
Yesterday afternoon and evening,
how animals helped to win the war.
There was the pigeon that brought
in the news of a stranded hydroplane
in the North Sea. and fell dead just
as 1t reached a naval port Six men
were saved, and the bird, stuffed, is
a priced possession of the port.
Dog Brought Message
Two pigeons and a dog, Mr.. Baynes
said. were the heroes of the last siege
of Dounamont One portion of the
French defenders were cut off from
their batteries. There was no means
of communication. Suddenly the des-
pairing French saw a speck shoot out
across No Mans Land. 1t was dog.
1t fell, but rose again, and limped in
on three feet, one leg hanging from
the hip. 1t brought a message, Hold
on. We are coming" On its back II
bore two pigeons, trembling from
fright. The pigeons were sent back
with the message "silence the battery
on our left" from which the most
deadly fire had come. In a few min
utes the French batteries cut loose
with a hail of fire that turned the tide
at that point.
More than 1000, 900 horses were with
the allied forces, the lecturer said,
when the armistice was signed.
