Festival of Faith

This is Reformation Sunday, the 434th
anniversary of Martin Luther's posting of his
95 theses on the door of the Cathedral at
Wittenburg, and the occasion will be marked
locally by Festival of Faith meeting at the
Uline Arena tonight. Such an assembly will
serve as opportunity for setting forth again
the principles of modern Professionalism. It
represents the response which the Washington
Federation of Churches and many Independent
Protestant agencies are making to the challenge
of the "age of confusion" in which living gen.
erations find themselves involved
Protestant philosophy in it's original form
was natural answer to the evils and sorrows
of similar era of distress. It's American phases
are parts of the historic Expansion of Europe"
which still is in process Of development, Clarence
w. Hall and Desider Holisher in their recently
published book, Protestant Panorama" explain
that Professionalism "iS not, fundamentally a
protest against anything" but rather a testi-
mony for something. They say: Professionalism
is freedom of conscience freedom of grace,
freedom of access to God, freedom of religion
from authoritarian control and they continue:
"A faith, any faith, is known by the company
1t keeps, (and) Professionalism has always been
associated with free men, free societies"
The faith to which this evenings meeting
will testify, of course, is the faith expressed by
the MayfioWer passengers in their famous Cove
nant It's apostles have included: Roger Will
liams William Penn George Oglethorpe, John
and Charles Wesley, Jonathan Edwards George
Whtefeld, Gilbert Tennent John Witherspoon,
George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Patrick
Henry, Alexander Hamilton, John Peter Gabriel
Muhlenberg and many other clerical and lay
leaders whose services and sacrifices have con-
tributed immensely to the best traditional aspects
of the American way of life.
That way is threatened now by rampant
secularism, theistic communism on the march
The Reverend DR.. Joseph r. Sizoo, the Reverend
Dr. Frederick Brown Harris, the Reverend Dr.
Frederick E. Ressig and their colleagues who will
speak tonight are deeply conscious of the danger
and they will reply to it as Martin Luther did to
the perils of his own time, 434 years ago. To
paraphrase the words of the great German
reformer, God helping them, they can do no
other"

Trouble Is Chronic

advice of three good friends.

one I was just 90 The little business
that employed me suddenly went busted

up and said: Il like to get my exercise

the first kind word any one had spoken
since the crash. accepted eagerly.
expecting sympathy and encouragement
and perhaps the offer of job. To my
surprise, he said: "You are very fortu-
nate young man"
"Fortunate!" I exclaimed. "My college
classmates who went to work for big.

promotions and are on their way.
have lost two years of my life and 81 500
in unpaid salary"
Mr.. Funk said: II repeat, you are

over again. He learns not to be afraid.
The man to be pitied is the one who.

He has no iron in his soul, no inner

My second benefactor and still my
good friend, is Robert Updegraff, the
business consultant. He wrote: Never
complain about your troubles; they are
responsible for more than half of your
income"
How true! There are millions Of jobs
that are easy to learn and which, once
learned, involve no responsibility and
present no troubles. They are steady
jobs, but never more than modestly
rewarding. Only the jobs with big
problems command the big pay.

early. was wonderful Irishman named
George Buckley. One day out of clear

more than a sword can sever a sun

A modern novel depicts a desperate
man entering church at the hour
of public worship His life was beset
by Illustration and perplexity. Adverse
circumstances had him cornered. The
hour was browheating his mind and
soul. Beneath the lift of those Gothic
arches he bowed his head in despair.
Somehow. the organ prelude soothed
his troubled spirit. Then, down the
center aisle of the vaulted nave came
the surpliced choir singing, as the throng
of worshipers joined their voices: 20
God, our help for ages past, our hope
for years to come!" As this modern
story puts it.: That hour q miracle
happened" This man went out with
a new assurance: It's true; God cares
ISrael's singer who wrote the 73d
Psalm was in the same mood as this
goth century doubter He, too, was
sick at heart. His feet had almost
slipped He saw the wicked prosper and
evil rampant. Then in the center of
that moving autobiography Of a soul
there rises the portal of a temple of
peace and prayer. Into its sacred pre-
cincts, with all his shattered faith. he
went. Nature was not enough. Hear
him, across the centuries. as he says:
II went into the sanctuary Of God.
Then understood T." Inside that sane
tuary he got perspective. he found hori-
zons and the restored certainty, There
is a hand that guides-God cares"
What he found was not theory. or an
explanation; but a power and a victory.
Always, that is the thing religion offers.
He went out to write perhaps the best
loved paean of Gods care in all litera-
ture. They are words which still COM
fort millions. But they do not stop at
dawnings or sunsets, but go on, even to
and through the valley Of the shadow
of death.
After church, with new light in his
eyes he watched on the green hillside
the brooding. seeking keepers Of the
sheep-the personif1cation Of care. And
then he wrote for the long years: "The
Lord is my shepherd. shall not want"
That blessed truth, like benediction, Is
set to music even in the atomic age as
we sing of the Divine care:
g.. the heart of the Eternal
Is most wonderfully kind"

No Money in Nursing?

We read in The Star recently that,
only 25 of TOO inactive nurses answered
the call to return to duty. Is the public
wondering why nurses are refusing to
follow their profession? Ask any nurse
and the answer will be the same: No
money!
There is lot of talk about the glory
of being a humanitarian and helping
others; it is wonderful feeling of salts
faction to nurse some one back to health,
but that feeling of satisfaction will not
pay one single bill Has any one ever
questioned the humanitarian spirit Of
the doctors when they were charged
$40 for 10-minute consultation?
A 3-year course Of nurses training
is the equivalent Of working your way
through college. as we see it. Hospitals
now are not only asking the students
to wear themselves out working because
there is shortage of help. but they
are requiring them to pay tuition for
this privilege. Each year the fee seems
to increase. so that at present it costs
a girl somewhere between 500 and $3.50
a year to study nursing.
Now you understand better why girls
are not interested in becoming nurses.
Many girls who would make fine nurses
are unable to pay this tuition. The
hardest blow of all comes when the
nurse finds that the girls who went into
the Government with only high school
education now are making more money
than they can ever hope to make in
the same number Of working hours.
If hospitals and Government agencies
would raise the nurses salaries to a
decent level. the retired nurses would
break down the doors applying for jobs.

He cared.
Those who constructed an effective
channel through which individual,
Americans might help to supply the food
and clothing so direly needed in Europe
and other parts of the stricken earth
were recognizing the high spiritual up
reach of this heavily freighted word
when they named the bundles of mercy

precious thing put into Community
Chest is care. Back of every crimson
feathery symbol of abyssmal want and
woe is the searching question, " Do you
care?"

care is the stature of ones personality.
1t is the reach of their care that meas

st. Paul's magnificent warning about
certain public gestures which lack

paraphrased thus: Unless in my heart I

sounding brass and tinkling cymbal. No
wonder the fundamental question which
all religion is called upon to answer is:
Does God care? Is the universe friendly?
Now any intelligent answer to that
query must face not just a fenced-off
part of the universe, or of life, but the
total experience of existence.

Lowell Divorce Trial
Recessed; ;LiyeIyLega|
Battle 10 Continue

The District Court divorce trial
of Mrs. Eileen Lowell against her
pastor husband was in weekend
recess today, with no indication
of an early end to the lively legal
battle.
At the close of yesterdays ses-
sion, the slight. blond Mrs. Lowell
told Judge T. Alan Goldsborough
she could no longer put up with
the 'indignitieS and cruelties" of
her husband. the Rev. DR.. Stanley
Lowell, pastor of the Wesley
Methodist Church.
This fact, she said, she had
explained to DR.. Lowelps superior.
Bishop Charles w. Flint. when
the latter pleaded with her to re-
turn to her husband.
Seeks Limited Divorce.
Mrs. Lowell, 80, is suing for
limited divorce on the ground of
cruelty. Her husband is charg-
ing her, in turn, with willful de-
Sertion. Both seek custody of
their three young children.
Under croSs-examination by DR..
Lowell'S attorney, Henry M.
Fowler, the witness was asked if
she had not told Bishop Flint's
wife that DR.. Lowell had COM
mitted adultery with number of
different women?"
Mrs. Lowell replied that she
chad indicated that there were

inf1delity charges" She has ac-
cused her husband of having illicit
relations with the wife of another
minister.
The cross-questioning showed
up new points Of friction in the
married life of the couple.
Isn't it a fact" challenged Mr.
Fowler, that you once refused to
go on a Sunday School picnic with
DR.. Lowell because you told him
that you didn't think that any OF
your husbands church people
would be sober?"
The witness answered that she
recalled making some such re-
mark to a friend in connection
with a church dance.
Denies He Did Dishes.
Isn't it a fact" the lawyer con-
tinued," that DR.. Lowell always did
the dishes for you while you had
no help?"
Indeed, that is lie," the wit
ness snapped.
Mr.. Fowler probed deeply into
the question Of Mrs. Lowell's re-
Iigious and scientific studies,
drawing from her the admissions
that, from time to time she had
been interested in Hinduism.
astrology, mental telepathy, faith
healing. vegetarianism and dia-
neticS.
To an objection by her lawyer
In the course of the questioning
Judge Goldsborough explained:
What the defense is trying to
do is show that the plaintiff is
and that all these vari-
Gus studies she was engaged in
indirectly resulted from her insta-
bility and caused her instability
The defense. is trying to show that
these people who try to heal others
can't heal themselves and that, in
common parlance. they are nuts.
At another point. Attorney
asked: Weren't you also
a pacifist?"
II think" interposed Judge
Goldsbcrough. "I'll decide in a
little while that I've heard every
thing"
"Yes I am a pacifist." Mrs
Lowell said.
