IN YEAR 1922,
PASTORS THEME
Rev. George Mecklenburg Gives
Opening Sermon in Pulpit
Here.

The world has broken down morally
and spiritually and II is a question
whether humanity has seriously started
to reconstruct, the Rev. George Meek
lenburg of the First Methodist Episco-
pal church declared in his initial ser
mon in Great Falls Sunday. The pop
ulations of 1922 are hungry for reality,
he asserted. They want assurance,
something to depend upon, something
to live for. They need great aftlrma-
tons. A positive, constructive, trust
full attitude toward life is needed. Ex-
tracts from his sermon follow:
81 enter upon by new task with
fear and trembling. Not that | have
stage fright or that | am afraid of
people. / fear God. To be an ambas-
sador of God now is a serious respon-
sibility. To be n spiritual guide now
when chaos reigns in thought and
faith; to be. a trail blazer now when
humanity is lost is q dizzy, dangerous
adventure. / do not feel equal to the
task. but | pray God ! may be worthy.
"My only concern is to be in the
way of truth. And | am free to deal in
truth. There is ne freer tribunal on
earth than the Methodist pulpit. l
have never been told what to say and
what not to say.
II realize, / think, fully how serious
life is in 1922. l am thinking of the
masses. the common folks, whom God
loves the folks who love and hate,
who raise the children, who work and
worry. / am thinking of the weary,
faded, bewildered populations of 1922.
They are hungry for reality. They
want assurance, something to depend
on, something to live for. They need
great affirmations. A positive, con-
structive, trustful attitude toward life
is needed, and that is preaching the
gospel of God.
Everybody says this is an age of
reconstruction. Something then must
have been destroyed. 1t cannot be
that we are thinking only of material
reconstruction. The world has broken
down morally and spiritually. And to
me it is a question whether we have
seriously started our reconstruction.
"You are familiar with the marvel
Gus development in science during the
nineteenth century. Every force in
nature was harnessed for the service
of man. He thought it meant the
emancipation of enslaved humanity,
We became intoxicated with our
achievements.
But the developments in science
Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1921-current, 1922-10-02

during this great nineteenth century
were not important except insofar as
they gave larger means for carrying
out the mind or spirit or philosophy
of the day. Let US look deeper to find
the causes of the ills of 1922. Let
us study the prevailing philosophy. or
religion if you please, of the dominant
leaders of the nineteenth century. 1t
is our Interpretation of life, or our
faith, o science, that after all deter
mines life.
Consciously or unconsciously by
direct philosophy or by its trucking
down to US in picture shows, novels,
or sermons, we think life is deter
outside standards. Our standards and
even conscience have evolved by CEN
turies of experimentation with good
and bad. We find at last what is
best. And so for example, we say
honesty is the best policy. We do
not feel that an everlasting standard
of honesty has been set up by God.
1t is Just n matter of intelligent
choices. There is then no place for
inspiration and the supernatural.
AN even more prevalent mood of
modernism is that of naturalism. The
naturalist is sensuous. selfish and dis
regards every law of expediency.
Tradition is thrown to the wind. The
golden yesterdays are strapped. No
duty must be performed. Anything
which gives pleasure is good.
81 am now telling you the mood and
mind, or perhaps religion of the age
which thrust US into August, 1914.
1t is this that produced Prussianism
and the horrors of the reconstruction
days.
at Is this kind of an age which de-
mands of the church TO stick to charity,
and relief work with some
innocuous preaching of the simple gos-
pel.' 1t is this & which has almost
made our educational system a bread
and butter system rather than a place to
build character and breed culture. The
trend is altogether to the practical, to
business. to that which will help us to
make a living. The greater question as
to what we live for is nearly lost sight
of in our schools.
81 like u young people, only they
are helpless victims of our sensual, un-
spiritual modern day. l am not a crank
against modern dress. / like the
hair and the bright colors and
the decently short skirts of today. /

It made me glad for the fashions of
1929. But l am wondering whether we
are putting inside the heads and hearts
Of our high school students the stuff of

democracy.

the theme of our sermon next Sunday

finally tracing with her f~orefinger the
peculiar eyebrows of Smith which
had noticed when / had seer him in
the restaurant near the reservoir
Then they had been plucked in the silly
fashion which women affected at that
time, and the traces of the treatment
still remained. But either the mar had
relied upon his bandage as a disguise
or was unable TO treat them as he had,
for in one place above his right eye
brow, there was the beginning of q
tiny tuft Of snowy-white hair in q
bizarre contrast to the raven black
ness of the rest of his brows.
"Ah..." Lillian drew a long breath as
her finger rested upon it. The tufted
eyebrows of the -- family" The
name is one known to every student of
European royal families.
You see, Madge? Allen? Mr.. Spen-
Ger? This clinches the thingT" she
exclaimed. You are -" She
gave a name which startled me, pre-
pared as l had been by her hints.
In the face of absolute defeat, the
man Smith seemed TO regain the sto-
ical poise which had been badly shat
tered while he had been frantically
trying to avert discovery. And there
was something absolutely royal in the
manner he opposed to L~illian's cry of
triumph.
YES, l am" he said slowly, land if
/ were in my own place, a woman like
you would be whipped through the
marketplace at my bare word
But you do not happen to be in
your own place, fortunately for u.s."
Lillian replied lightly, and then she
turned to Allen Drake.
What shall we do with him, Allen ?"
she asked in exactly the Indifferent.
tone which she would
have employed in speaking of a chicken
thief.
Tie him up for the night in some
kennel where he can ruminate over his
exalted position" he replied.
and there was something about the
colloquy which told me that it had been
beforehand and that it was
purposely calculated TO enrage and hu-
the bound man.
But after that?"
What do you think" he countered
Lillian's eyes were fixed upon
Smiths stolid face.
There is but one safe thing" she
said, land that is to send him back
to his own exalted place. They are
waiting fondly for him over there"

Federal Court Held
In Billings to Try
Out New Courtroom

Billings, Oct. 1.-(By The Asso-
ciated Press.)-After IN official alb
sence of more than three years, Judge
George NJ. Bourquin held United
States district court in Billings Fri
day. Judge Bourquin explained that
the session was held largely to ascer-
tain what conveniences had been pro-
vided for the court in the new court
rooms just finished by the federal
building here.
He stated that the first regular
term would be opened in December
and intimated that another federal
judge would be appointed for Mon
tana before that time.
The only case disposed of Friday
was that of c. l.. Harvey, former
proprietor of a moving picture thea

GODS KINGDOM
IS PRICELESS,
MINISTER SAYS
Rev. Lopez Compares 1t With
Rare Coin in Sunday
Sermon.

The kingdom of God and its value to
man was compared to a vase of rare
coins found recently in Turkey, in the
Sunday morning sermon of the Rev.
We're V. Lopez of the First Congrega-
tional church, who entitled his talk,
Buried Treasures" and based it on a
text from Matthew. Persons are too
apt to pass by the treasures of real
worth and be satisfied with that which
is false and has no real value, he said,
He spoke, in part, as follows:
"In the regions which the Turks have
just been devastating a discovery was
made which is hailed by scientists as

KMY MARRIAGE
PROBLEMS
Adele Garrison's
New Phase off,.
REVELATIONS
OF WIFE
WHAT THE REMOVAL OF THE
BANDAGE DISCLOSED

Allen brakes proposal to unpin the
bandage from Smiths head apparently
was the last straw upon the mans al
ready heavy burden of terror.
As my father. at Mr.. brakes re-
quest, moved to the bound mans side
and put out his hand to the bandage,
Smith lunged his bound figure forward
in an attempt to use it in battering-
ram fashion.
But the government agent was
quicker than he, and, though weakened
by his long illness, he had the advan-
tage of free hands and an upright posi-
ton. Therefore, it was but the work
of an instant to press the frantic man
back into his chair and hold him there
while my fathers long, slender hands
worked deftly at the soiled ~bandage
which Smith had worn ever since he
had arrived at the Briggs farm dis
guised as a farm laborer.
"NoW, Mrs. Underwood"
Lillian's hand upon my arm urged
me forward to q vantage point where /
could distinctly see every movement of
nv fathers hands. And when the outer
indescribably soiled bandage had been
unpinned, and there appeared heavy
folds of the finest and most immacu-
late linen imaginable, Lillian and /
looked at each other significantly. We
had anticipated cleanliness and dainti-
ness underneath that apparently filthy
bandage, and W. were not disappoint-
ed.
My father began to unfold the inner
bandages, and found them intricate and
frequently fastened. Smith made no
movement to hinder him, evidently
yielding passively and s~toically to the
pressure Allen Drake was exerting
against his shoulders. But when the
last bandage had been unfastened, re-
vealing no injury whatever to the head
beneath, Smith suddenly ducked his
head into his shoulders as far as he
could in a last futile effort to hide his
face.
Nothing doing in the ostrich line
old DEAR" Allen Drake drawled, and
with a single deft movement he tilted
the other mans head upward until his
face was fully illuminated by the light
Now, Mrs. Underwood" he said.
"But After That7"
Lillian drew me nearer, then bent
over the mans face, examining it
infinitely, comparing it with a written
paper which she held in her hand. and
