Brief Account Of Sermons DeLiUered at Churches Sunday

Religion Ills text was taken from the thirteenth chapter of First Corin- tnians; and with this favorite passage from Paul as nacKground, pr. Jacobs
 save in a powerrul ana convincing
 tanner his interpretation of the real
 leaning of the keynote of the apostles
 reat utterance.
 The passage is pretty strong as 1t stands" declared Dr. Jacobs, put it was meant to be much stronger. The word, charity, has been Jumped, and the revised version has made the mean ing very little clearer by the subsutu- tion of the word, love, which is itself tarnished word. In the word, charity, we hear the rattle of subsidiary coin, we think of the paid worker of the as- sociated charities, which is only anoth- CT way of passing on the responsibility to another. And the ten-cent novel and the cheap movie have placed a very worldly meaning on the word, love.
 'As near as l can come to it. he said," it means a sacrificial love for my neighbor. The kind of love where you give your very self It is that Kind of love which is aKIn to what 1 saw in our average American soldier during the world war: he was tllled
 with spirit of apandon, possessed
 With a willingness to lay everything
 aside and to dash into sure death, to
 give himself absolutely and unselfish- ly to a great cause. Those boys were
 sacrifices upon the altar of humanity. And in those days--great days--we
 stood on the very top of the worldi We were riding on the sky lne boulevard of all times; on the very peak and summit of humanftys highest spiritual attainment! 1t was superD moment in history. Compare 1t with the spirit of some miserable, damnable Judas who wanted to count the cost of send | ing our boys to the trenches in far off Flanders
 Gan the sort or love our boys pos | sessed in those days be had in every 1 day life? Yes. but 1t is mighty hard, 1 honor those who can attain 1t. 1 envy the workers in the Salvation Army who give themselves completely, unselfishly to the world.

JAPAN DISPLEASED ABOUT AMERICAN
 OCCUPATION VIEW
Claim Their Occupation Is Temporary and United States Should Have
 More Confidence
By Associated Pres,

Tokio. August 1.-Fhe American note dealing with Japans occupation of the northern part of the Island of saghalin appears to have made an unpleasant impression generally upon the Jap anese, but the hope is expressed that the government will be able to con- vince the United States that the occu- patton is only of temporary char acter.
 The newspapers in their commen nt are adopting. in the main, three lines of opinion. The first, represented by the Kokumin shimbun. is, that Ameri- ca's attitude toward Japan is always in the nature of a challenge. The sec ond. voiced by the Yomi- -Yurishimbun, is that the Japanese militarists are to blame for what it declares is the mis- conception abroad about Japan The third, expressed by the conservative Jigi-Shimpo is that the occupation of Russian territory by Japan constituted q doubtful policy, liable to cause diff ficulties both at home and abroad.
 After pointing out that Japan had clearly stated it had no territorial ambitions, the Yomi-Yuri Shimbun continues:
 Tt is regrettable, however, that the declarations of the Japanese govern ment are often not taken seriously The powers regard Japan as a coun- try which does not mean what it says she most important reasons for this will be found in the actions of the mill tarists whose uttorances are inc cause of the governments attitude being mis- understood abroad Unless the militar- ist evil is stamped out. hundred declarations disavowing territorial am bitioIs will not be able to convince the powers"
 The Jij Shimpo view is that Ameri- ca will come to appreciate Japans po- sition if the latter succeeds in making it clear that her occupation is not tc be permanent. Unhappily however, i points out, Japans hesitation over tn, withdrawal of her troops from Siberia gave the powers the idea that JapaI was seeking something. Owing to th- improbability that responsible govern ment will not appear in Russia for { long time to come, the Jiji says i foresees a lengthy occupation of Sag halin and predicts that the govern ment's decision in this matter vii cause difficulties not only of diplo matic, but of a domestic character and will affect the interests of tn state for a considerable period.

 At St Paurs church yesterday morning the Rev r. P. Diviney preached an m teresting sermon on humility, using a his text, "He that humbleth himse shall be exalted:r Luke 1874. He sa. in part:
