Western Welcome
Given DR.. Fast
at First Sermon

Packed to Hear New Pastor; ;
Audience Enjoys
-
SerIaon.

Members Of the congregation o.
the First Methodist church gave
their new pastor, Dr.. ]. w. G. Fast
true western welcome yesterday
morning, when he preached his frst
sermon, "The Supremacy Of Christ
in the Modern World" in his new
Omaha charge. The church was
packed to overAowing and automo-
biles lined the curb on practically
every street adjacent to the church
Previous to his sermon. DR.. Fast
praised the work done by the for.
mer pastor, Rev. Titus Lowe. and
asked the congregation to support
him as they had his predecessor.
II feel that I have been made
welcome in Omaha" Dr.. Fast said
"In fact the welcome started be-
fore 1 left Akron. Letters from
members of the congregation came
there bidding me welcome. The re.
ception have received since conf
ing here has been ideal"
Captures His Audience.
Dr.. Fast captured his audience
from the very start. Throughout
his preliminary remarks and his ser
mon there was a vein Of humor that
sparkled again and again. His au"
dience liked it for there were many
smiles evident. Then, too, there was
the good old fashioned religion
straight from the shoulder, delivered
with force and substantiated with
intelligence.
"Jesus came into the world when
it was dominted by a most complex
civilization. The Roman empire
and its civilization dominated the
world. There were complex ccre-
moniaIs Of all kinds. The law was
complex and when Jesus swept all
these aside and taught in such
language that even a child could
he naturally found
friends as we'll as enemies.
Reforms Traced to Jesus.
1.-THE supremacy established by
Jesus teachings has come down
through the ages and is the great
factor in modern civilization. All
the great reforms, political and re-
ligious, can be traced to his teach
ings."
The speaker said the seeds sown
by the disciples and followers OF
Christ in the dark ages" were bear
ing fruit now. "Jcsus has become
supreme in spite Of all obstacles"
the speaker said.
The music Of the choir, under the
direction Of ]. Edward Carnal, was
excellent. Last night DR.. Fast
preached on The Good Old Times
and Our Times" DR.. and Mrs: Fast
have moved into the parsonage,
which has been redecorated and re-
modelled for them.

NOW3SSN~oSH
Toxic, April 2.4Although no diS'
position exists oh the part Of the
japanese government or people to
engage in hostilitieS. al the news
from Siberia indicates the approach
Of hostilities between the Japanese
and the Chinese reds. The latter are
steadily advancing in the japanese
zone, in spite Of repeated warnings
from the japanese command that
such violation Of the agreement will
be resisted. ,'.'
The japanese outpostS have been
Withdrawn and the forces are being
concentrated, taking up 4 line be-
fore NikoIsk. The reds are altering
past and entering Vladivostok, where
the inhabitants are becoming
alarmed.
Dispatches frem Dairen state that
the Japanese delegates are being in
structed to hasten the conclusion Of
an agreement and they are even
conceding some points which here
tofore they have stubbornly con.
tested. Harbin, however, reports a
stiffcning of the Chita attitude,
which has almost reached the point
Of defiance to Japan. Foreign Min
lister JanSon Of the Chita government
is quoted as saying that the japanese
are insisting on a special position in
Siberian trade which Chita refuses
to accept, the latter taking a stand
for equal opportunities and the open.
door.
No steps have been taken yet to
increase the Japanese forces on the
Vladivostok front. possibly because
Of the lack of desire on the part Of
the Japanese public to embark on
a military adventure in Siberia OF
in any other place. 1t is felt that a
troop movement would precipitate
an avalanche Of hostile criticism
against the entire Siberian policy Of
the militarist party.
