Makes Plea for Stncter Mar
riage Laws in Sermon on
The Investment Of
Motherhood"

plea for the dignity Of mother
hood and mitigation OF the divorce
evil by stricter laws was the theme
Of Rev. Dr. Earle wnney ia his SER
mon, The Investment OF Mother
hood" yesterday morning at the
Vermont Avenue Christian Church.
Anon" the great investments Of
the wol Ie said. none Is greater
than that OF motherhood. There H.
no peril so ominous today as the
peril of a decadent motherhood.
This peril is approaching from two
particular directions.
First, there is the fact that NUT
titudes Of women are entering all
the various walks OF life and are be-
coming more and more independent.
while motherhood is becoming less
common and less popular"
Second. there is the danger Of
an inferior and unfit motherhood
and because OF this there is a dan
ger Of the race becoming decadent.
The strong and educated are going
into various lines OF pursuit to earn
a livelihood or follow some career
that seems attractive TO them. while
the weak, the unfit. and the incon-
petent become the mothers of the
race. This tendency is recognized
by all students OF present-dsy coH-
ditions"
Every mother Is one OF the
worlds greatest investors, in giving
herself to motherhood and all Of
US sons and daughters are the re-
turns on the investment"

Doris sighed. The vision OF
Stewart begging anyone was too
ridiculous to contemplate. She
kissed her mother good-by regret
fully and boarded a train for the
North, devoid of any sharply defined

to leave and yet she had no pleasant
anticipation for her return to her

Savior as Dear
Friend Come to Advise,
In Sermon on Jesus
Christ, Preacher"

Taking his text from the words,
And the common people heard Him
gladly. for He spake with authority"
the Rev. DR.. Newell Dwight Hills.
eminent Brooklyn divine, preached a
sermon on Jesus Christ as a
preacher" yesterday morning at the
First Congregational Church.
1T is quite certain that no other
hero ever went to such instant popu-
larity as did Jesus" said DR.. Hills.
Within a few weeks after He began
His ministry. His name and fame
had travelled into the utt-rmost
corner of the land. In their eager
ness to hear Him, men forgot their
private interests and their public
duties. The farmer deserted his
plow. the merchant his shop, the
shepherds forsook their herds, and
all men rushed together TO see and
hear Jesus. Where were the hidings
of His power? There is an unex-
plored remainder in the Master
preacher who is at once the ideal
and the despair of his followers. He
was an orator. speaking as never
man spoke, but eloquence will not
explain Jesus. 1t was the note of
reality in Jesus that made the COM
mon people hear him gladly.
The atmosphere in which Christ
taught was the atmosphere Of COM
passion, pity and sympathy. When
Christ as a preacher stood before
the people, it was great dear
friend come to advise them in a
critical hour and help them in an
emergency. His pity was the pity
of a physician, tenderly handling a
sick child; His sympathy was the
sympathy of a teacher, encouraging
a discouraged pupil; His compass
sion was the compassion of q lover.
