PASTOR TftLKS ON UNITY OF WORLD Dr. Frank S. C. Wicks Bases Sermon on Wells’ ‘Outline of History.’ HAILS KINSHIP OF MAN Says Book Should Be Read as Series of Lessons on Brotherhood. Basing a sermon-address on H. G. Wells’ “Outline of History,” Dr. Frank S. C. Wicks, pastor of All Souls Unitarian Church, Sunday morning. took as his subject, “The Influences of Christianity in Unifying thè World,” in resnming a course of addresses begun last spring. Dr. Wicks said* that “in Mr, Wells we have one more prophet proclaiming, ‘The kingdom of heaven ls at liand.’ Wells believes that it will come when posseseion of common Listorieal knowledge and common traditions give to mankind a realizing sense of kinship. His book should be read. not as history, but as a series of sermons, on thè tbeme, ‘The Brotherhood of Man.’ He has no interest in history as such, or as a record of facts. Facts. to him, are but the surface eruption of ideas. He sees in thè march of history an advance towarrd the unification of mankind. Church and Unity "In thè section under consideration today we see thè effort of Christianity to achleve unity among men: its promise of success under a United church; lts partial realizatlon and lts tìnal failure. “Wells ls interested in thè Crusades for in them there was an approach to unity among Christiana, a linking idea to trhich men could devote themselves and cooperate in a universal enterprise. For thè. first time we discover Europe with a common idea and a common soul, a universal reaponse of indignation over thè story of a remote wrong. Ideas On Papacy "Wells, though a rationalist, sympathizes tvith thè underlying idea of thè papacy, one universal rule of righteousness. keeping peace among men. He predlcts that sooner or later mankind must come to one universal peace unless our race is to be destroyed by the increasing power of lts own destructive inventions. and that universal peace must need take thè form of a governing. law-sustaining organization—in thè best sense of thè word, religious--governing men through thè educated coordination of their minds in a common conception of history and destiny. “The church failed and Mr. Wells tells what he believes to have been thè causes. It failed to achieve the noble splendid idea of a unified religious world; failed because of a complex dogmatlc theology, and because of thè individuai lnsufficiency of some of thè popes,” Dr. Wicks said. AFRICAN CONVERT SPEAKS The story of the conversion of a Mohammedan African tribe boy and of bis coming to Indianapolis to attend college was related last night by David Manley, a senior at Indiana Centrai College, in an address at thè Oilvary Baptist United Brethren Church. Mr. Manley, thè son of an African i Moftain of thè Bal tribe. Mendi peoof West Africa, said his contact with Christian boys in a mission school had caused him to become a Christiun and read thè Bible at night, stretched out on a leopard skin in front of' the tire, after his uncle had gone to bed. After three years ago last July. Mr. Manlet wìio had been named a missionry. carne to Indianapolis after he had tried to bribe a fireman on a ship to let him work his way across the ocean as a stoker. HiTS AT UNBELIEVER ! t does not take brains to be an infidel, Dr. E. J. Bulgin of Portland, : Ore., evangelist, declared yesterday in ! an address before 5,000 people at thè Cadle Tabernacle. “Unbelief in Jesus Christ and ! Christianity is thè most unreasonahle j tbing in thè world,” said Dr. Bulgin. ! “The best argument for thè divine church is that she has been heie aster nearly twenty centuries of opposltion.” “The Christian religion is thè only religion that is primarily founded up- j on propnecy. No other religion dares ; to have a prophecy.” KINGDOM IMPLANTED "Christ carne on this earth in or- I der that tne kingdom of God may be established here,” thè Rev. Jesse Bogue. pastor of thè North Methodist Church. said in a sermon yesterday. "He did not describe thè kingdom of God, but He said it was in our hearts to be transformed and developed, and not in some far-ofT place. He said It was like a mustard seed sown in thè ground which grows and bears fruit. “We must be transformed from thè

Clouse, pastor of thè King Avenue Methodist Episcopal Church in his sermon yesterday morning on “The Father’s House.” "Only thè blood and spirit of Jesus Chrst will wash clean our . bodies,” said thè Rev. Mr. Clouse. At night he preached on “Sowing and ReafP ing.” D RAMATI ZE ‘RUTH’ STORY “Ruth in thè Field of Boaz,” a dramatized Bible story. was presented by thè junior church Sunday afternoon. Richard Parkhurst, a Boy Scout, gave thè Scout law and motto, and George Kimmick, 75, a Civil War veteran, spoke. At thè evening Services, thè Rev. David McConaughy preached on "The New Era Movement,” and ir. thè morning Mrs. Minnie Bronson, State evangelist of thè W. C. T. IT., spoke.
