CATION against my kind of religion, l
was not left without a place to
preach. I do not feel badly about it
and certainly do not hate my ortho-
dox opponents.
You see the trouble with certain
religious people is that they condemn
other religions without knowing any
thing about them. Consequently l
am going to give those who have
really heard what liberals and pro-
gressives in religion really believe a
chance to hear it tonight.
THE four points of my belief are:
God, and in man.
II believe in Jesus because he was
himself a progressive.
Il believe in the Bible because 1t
is a record of the progress of a great
race in the search for God.
II believe in God because He is the
great force and power behind all prog
ress.
Finally, believe in man because
of his internal urge toward progress
and growth. Some one has said
that human nature never changes
but a wiser man has said that it is
human nature to change.
IF we have faith in man and be
lieve in him, If we have hope of his
growth upward and onward forever,
and above all If we act in the spirit of
love toward him, all our troubles will
gradually be solved for us by Paul's
great formula, faith, hope and love.

a greater affiiction than blindness of

John T. Raulston, presiding at the
Scopes trial here today, gave his con-

ed to the scores of newspaper re-
porters.
'In the maintenance of a repub-
lican form of government, it is essen
tial that its powers be distributed into
legislative, judicial and executive de-
partments." said the judge.
THE judicial department has no
concern as to the motives, wisdom or
policy of statutes; there it should be
absolutely non-political.
mo person should be elevated to
judicial office because of his political
affiliation or partisan activities.
Fitness and temperament legal at

paramount in the selection of all ju-

HAMS POINT SWEPT
BY FREAK TORNADO
One Man Hurt, Two Autos
Damaged, Trees Fall
in Gale.

Blowing diagonally across Hams
Point, in East Potomac Park, at hurri
cane velocity, a gale yesterday left
a path of torn, twisted and uprooted
trees, one casualty to a man and two
partly demolished automobiles. VIII
liam Harrison, 1902 Seventh street,
who was seated in his car with his
family, was injured about the shoulder
when one of the large willows fell On
the car. He was taken to the Emer-
gency Hospital. Five other persons
in the car mira culously escaped in
jury. They were Mrs. William Harri-
son, Mrs. Camilla Harrison and Thorn
as, Frank and Louise Harrison.
Another car pArked next to the
Harrison car, and in which were seated
r. W. Decker of 500 East Capitol
street, and his sister, Mrs. E. J.
Thompson of the same address, had it's
radiator, tenders and lamps damaged,
but the occupants were not injured,
according to police reports.
Lieut.. Col. Clarence o. Sheriff., di-
rector of the Office of public buildings
and public parks of the National Capt.
tai, and Charles Henlock, horticul-
turist of the public parks, made a
survey of the storm area this morn
ing. All the trees blown down were
found to have been strong and healthy
before the storm.
Following his inspection Col. Sheriff.
said that he proposed to plant a row
of trees nearer the sea wall in the fu-
ture, so that in the event any of them
fell in the path of a storm they would
not reach the roadway and cause
damage.
The usual freak of a storm also
was prevalent on the point. One of
the Japanese cherry trees in front of
the teahouse was broken off about
six inches below the ground, and as
clean a cut as though it had been
sawed. An examination showed that
apparently the wind had caught it in
such a way as to twist it around and
break 1t off, instead of just blowing

mentals of the law and his character
should be absolute and superlative.
I'm the very nature of things there
can be no such combination as dis
honest individual and an honest judge
in the same personality. The stand
ards of dishonesty and those of in
tegrity are too inconsistent and in
compatible to coinhabit the same
mind.
"A Judge should begin all investi-
cations with an open mind and should
never hastily and rashly rush to con-
clusions.
80 long as there is any question
Of either law or fact in doubt, he
should diligently inquire for the truth.
mo judge should use the functions
of his Office for his individual advan-
tage and to the detriment of the pub
lie. He should always remember that
he is merely trustee and that the
powers and privileges of the office do
not belong to him and are not subject
to personal appropriation.
"A Judge should divest himself of
all prejudice. suppress all passion
within and have one purpose. and one
only. and that is to find the truth ana
to declare Justice"

Rev. DIR. George r. Stuart of

Tennessee, declared in a sermon
Yesterday at the First Congrega-
tional Church that the Tennessee
State law does not bar the teaching
Of evolution in the public schools.
THE legislators of that State
are not all Solomons," he asserted,
but they did not pass law pre-
venting the teaching of all evolu-
tion as advanced by many leading
scientists. The law simply says
that the theory that man sprang
from monkey shall not be taught.
1t is only that one stage that is in
in i'll repute.
And. personally, I think it is
much better for a man to go to
the Garden of Eden than to some
geological garden to find his grand
father" DR.. Stuart added.
