Rev. Brown Finds Big Lesson in Memorial Day
"No experience during the last century has -had- a more beneficent effect in - developing our nation -than the Civil War,’" Dr. Lewis Brown, rector of Rt. Paul's‘Episcopal Church declared Sunday while, delivering a Memorial day sermon. "It was a test,” Dr Brown said, 'of the integrity of the constitution and a proof of the wealth of our resources to meet critical epochs... The Government of the North went into conflict largely untrained and ignorant of its capacity. The spell of the pioneer days still prevailed. “Out of the years of struggle we emerged a unified people. Sectionalism was abolished arid we were welded together by the very divergences that S ad threatened to destroy our life. "Consequently Memorial day is i;ke -a ‘shining mark of progress and a challenge to -deepest patriotism. It speaks of costly sacrifice, gory battlefields. broken homes, devastated lands, widow's tears and orphan's lamentations, which re-echo yet. "But it certifies also to the seedsowing which yielded a harvest of devotion and a sentiment of love for country that years cannot dim. More than any_pther. conflict, the spirit of 1861 paralleled that of 1776. The one preserved what the other so sublimely secured. For God and Nation That Our Heroes Died "It was for-. God and the nation heI roes soughs and died. Memorial day must always emphasize fove of country. It is not the old flag tattered and torn that alone greets our eyes, but the new flag-with every star gleaming with deeper consecration. Hearts kindle afresh as we note the faded uniforms and the trembling footsteps. We '"brush the-tears aside as we-recall-the cost, but deeper is loyalty with every pulse-beat. "No procession of the year is more vivid with meaning Duty and principle keep Us fondly devoted to thecircumstances which make the occa sion possible. In the presence of these battle-scarred defenders we light anew the lamp of deeper patriotism. Attacks Only Strengthen Our Devotion of Purpose “With the knowledge of modern traitorous attacks upon .our Government and flag, we surrender to more conspicious loyalty. As we remember under God our sacred past. we pledge additional fidelity for the future. "The pure principles which purchased our freedom must not be exchanged for a 'mess of potage.' Be it ours to glorify our heritage by a citizenship without alloy, whose distin tinctive feature shall reveal unswering regard for country- for the Stars and Stripes, - willing r.ess to respond whenever danger threatens or tyranny impends, intense and forvid Americanism. "Upholding character, honor and probity as supreme, let us keep with reverent homage and renewed fealty the high incentives of Decoration Day,'' Dr. Brown pleaded. CITIZENS REMINDED OF DUTIES Pastor Warns That Liberty Must Be Tempered by Service. “Memorial Day more and more closely is associated with ideals of citizenship." said Dr. O. W. Fifer, pastor of Central Avenue Methodist Church, Sunday. “Too many people are forgetting their duties and services while they clamor for theJr liberties and rights. The thoughtless crowd or the hurrying individual forgetting or, Memorial Day to pay respect to the men, living or dead, who defended, their country, will pay dearly -for such neglect. Reverent and appreciative memory of patriots who gave their last full measure of devotion is one great secret of just and stable Government.” VETS HEAR MEMORIAL SERMON Rev. Dimkel Declares Church Mast Take Stand for Peace. Members of the Vevetarns of Foreign Wars attended services on Sunday night at Tabernacle Presbyterian Church.

The colored man’s greatest need" is for friendship, the Rev. Joseph H. Armistead of the Downey Ave. Christlon Church, said in a sermon, Sunday. “Anew generation sees more clearly, and while it grieves that Judgment had to be rendered by the sword, the South Joins the North in giving praise to God for a united country," he said. LAX RELIGIOUS LIFE SCORED Pastor Sees Change in Public Attitude Since World War. “There has been a decrease in re ! ligious life in this country since the: World War,” said the Rev. J. P. Cowan., pastor of the Woodruff Place j United Presbyterian Church, in a sermon Sunday morning. The Rev. j Cowan, oldest pastor in the city in' continuous service, reviewed his rela- 1 tionship with men of three wars. PROPHETS’ POWER EXPLAINED Minister Denies Biblical Figures Were Supernatural.

S; C. ■ Wicks said- in a sermon at the All Souls Unitarian Church Sunday. “Their ability was no more than that to see effects which would sure--follow causes,” he said.

HANEY OPTIMISTIC OVER OUTLOOK FOR BUSINESS Expert Sees Foreign Situation Clearing and Prospects forf,Continued Domestic Prosperity,
By DR. LOUIS HANEY Director of the Bureau of Business Research. Now York University. Written for United Financial NEW YORK. May 28.—While uncertainty as to the future trend of business still exists, there has been a marked decrease in posslmlm among New York business men during the last dny or two. Probably the chief factor in this change has been favorable foreign develop ments. The outstanding news of the week is undoubtedly the Austrian loan. J. P. Morgan has Issued a statement that various powers are joining in making a loan of $190,000,000 to that country ajyl that $25,000,000 will he raised. Asa creditor nation, and one with enormous gold holdings It. is to our interest to strengthen our foreign debtors. This cannot be wisely done by Government loans, but should be done with carefully- secured bonds for individual investors on a business basis, and by commercial credits In these ways we can help restore tho sadly deranged balance of trade and rates of exchange with Europe. Further study of the change in our balance of trade, marked by an excess of imports over exports, has convinced most observers that It is a favorable development and promises a gradual return to normal trad' re turns. Another feature is the brighter prospect for a settlement of the controversy between England and Russia and acquisition by English capital of the Berlin to.

ELECTRIC UTILITY IS KEEPING DP WITH DEMANDS Central Indiana Power Company Erecting Big Plant in Coal Fields, The phenomenal gain of the electric light and power business in Indiana and the United States is probably the most outstanding development of the industrial world during the last twelve months. The rapidly growing population, development of the numerous manufacturing enterprises ano new uses for electricity have created a demand upon the light and power companies that is taxing the management and engineering departments to the tit most. Official figures show the United States utilizes 55 per cent of the total electricity output of the world with constant greater production scarcely able to htmdle requirements. The use of electrical devices and conveniences is showing remarkable advancement. Power companies must face tremendous requirements in the near future and to meet them in alt I sections of the country super power plants are being erected. Indiana is not lagging in tliis respect for the Central Indiana Power Company, controlling six companies operating in 106 cities and towns, with more to be added soon, is pushing the construction of their lm mens** super power plant in the coal field on the Wabash River south of Terre Haute When completed It will be the largest enterprise of the kind in the State and will enable this com pany to give adequate light and power service to the fullest extent In the territory supplied by these properties MAN PREPARED TO FIK INSTRUMENTS Work of C, E, Mortimore Is Guaranteed, This is so much the \ge of specialists that every typo of business calls for a man particularly trained in a ; certain line of work. A man who formerly took care of a number of kinds of work now takes care of only one branch; C. E. Mortimore, 821 Massachusetts Ave., has chosen the repair of musical instruments as his specUtty. Tie is equipped to take care of the repair of all kinds of Instruments and is especially proficient i In "repairing phonographs—in fact he : can build any part of a phonograph to replace any worn out part and can tie it in a way that will be satisfactory. "We take care of the repair work for most of the music supply houses downtown and those shops that handle phonographs; our work has been so satisfactory to the customers of long standing that we feel they nre nnr best recommendation," said Mr. Mortimore. “We have a record exchange and wo find many have taken advantage of this exchange when they have grown tired of a record. We also sell musical instruments for our patrons or rebuild old instruments."
source of war scares but the development of commercial returns between England and Germany. Details of a plan to adjust the Mexican debt have been announced whereby the holders of Mexican bonds and notes will be Insured of payment. This may be a step toward bette, returns with that country;. Thus the foreign situation which has been dark appears somewhat blighter. At home the view gains ground that the present slackening in business and decline in wholesale prices will not go further and that good times may prevail through the fall.
