Sermon on the Mount
Was Preached for Fu-
ture Kingdom.

today for a man to live according to
the ethics set forth in the sermon

mon on the Mount" said the pastor,
He was setting forth the ethics of
the coming kingdom. a kingdom
that will be free from modern ras-
caiity. wickedness. deceit and sin"
The pastors subject was. "A Sad
Break in an Eventful Career" He
referred to the mistake of the
prophet Moses when he smote the
rock instead OF speaking to it as
commanded by God. And for this
sin." the pastor said. ''he was for
bidden to enter the land Of Canaan"
1T Is wholly impossible" the pas
tor declared, for man to live to-
day without making a mistake. None
OF us can be perfect. We cannot do
to others always as we would have
done unto us. The world has not
yet reached that stage.
But we can in many instances
prevent our loss OF self-control and
we can prevent some of the failures.
When We do succeed in not doing
those things which we ought not to
do. we should not then fail to give
God the glory He Is due.
1T is with the strength He gives
US that We are able to Withstand
modern temptations. 1t Is certainly
not our strength that keeps us out
of sin and temptation. No man can
live and keep himself normally clean.

mentally without the help of the
power OF God.
ITO err is human. to forgive divine.
God is ever ready to forgive the
sinner who Is repentant and ready to
begin over again and with the help
of God thereby keep from sinful

Spiritualism Tells What
Happens After Death, Says
Rev. Alfred I. Terry.

"spiritualism." said Rev. Alfred 7.
Terry. pastor OF the First Spiritual
list Church last night. lis the only
religion that gives us a clear, con-
else idea Of what happens after
death.
IF it were not for spiritualism." !"
said the pastor. death would not
only be a mystery to ali Of us. but
Il would be. q horror and a thing
to dread.
Death itself does not. end all for
us, the pastor continued. "and
therefore we need not fear Il. II
Is merely that the spirit passes
from the body 10 remain near those
II associated with in life.
Man does not change by death,
He remains the same as before with
the exception that his spirit il not
clothed with the flesh. We would
not know these things II Il were NOT
for Spiritualism.
1T is already an accepted fact
that after death our spirits COM
municate with the living. There
are numerous authentic records of
this having been done Especially
since the world war there has been
great trend toward Spiritualism.
Many Of those who died on the
field of battle are still with those
they loved in spirit. They stiIl
comfort their loved ones and give
aid and comfort to those they would
have aided and comforted in the
flesh.
Many Of our great scientists are
beginning to acknowledge the fact
that Spiritualism has a firm founda-
tion. What more proof do we need
than that the dead communicate
with the living?
In order that we may communi-
cate with a departed spirit our own
minds and spirits must be clean and
in a receptive mood. The spirit of
our loved ones Is ever near waiting
to comfort us il we will only let
it,"

AIRPLANE NESTS
0NBATTLESH|PS
Plan Of Foreign Nations
Renders America Liable
To Serious Attack.

Aviation officers who made the
tour of England. France and Italy
have returned to Washington and
declare the present work of all big
nations is toward perfecting the air
service in all it's branches.
If one thing. they say. could be
pointed to as indicating what the
big navy nations mean. 1t is the
equipping of all battleships with
runways for the catapulting of air
planes for attack against the shores
of an enemy. All believe there Is no
one branch of the service of more
practical value than the airplane-
Need Ships and Planes.
The experts made these points:
First-That in order to execute n
dangerous attack against any sea-
not necessary to possess airplanes
that can fly across the Pacific or the
Atlantic.
Second-That the plans now being
carried out by foreign nations to
make battleships the bases. planes
make long distance flights a sec
ondary consideration
Third-That any plan which. by
the use of battleships as bases.
brings planes near a coast, secures
long flights over cities to be at
tackled, which otherwise would not
be possiblei
Scientific investigation OF these
possibilities abroad indicates that
the answer to the problem always
comes back to the original issue of
having an American fleet equal to
the best fleet that could be mobiliZ-
ed against the United States. east
or west
Strengthen Coast Defenses.
Experts say the permanent safety
of the United States from successful
attack depends on three great fac
tors. One is the creation OF a fleet
that would make IL hazardous for
any enemy to establish a battleship
base for airplanes any place in the
Atlantic or Pacific. Another Is that
when the modern attack comes. the
United States must have completed
such a number of airplanes as will
be sufficient to fight the oncoming
enemies In the air. A third is that
as attacks of the most serious char
acter would be at night. the coast
defense must treble its present
searchlight equipment along the
whole coast line. This includes the
means of rapid concentration of
both additional lights and anti
aircraft guns at points on the coast
line, and would mean the carrying
out Of the prewar plan of having
special roads for tractors all the
way from Jacksonville to Boston. or
from southern points of the Cali
fornia coast to Puget Sound.
