PASTOR WELCOMES BIG DISCUSSION • CAUSED BY BRYAN Dr, Wicks Talks on Evolution in Public Address at Lodge Hall, "Evolution is the grandest revelation yet made to the mind of man, a knowledge of evolution making man a sharer in the never, ending work of creation,” Dr. Frank S. C. Wicks, pastor of AH Souls Unitarian Church, declared Sunday night in an address on “Religion and Evolution.” Dr. Wicks spoke at the Odd Fellow Hall under the auspices of the Unitarian Laymen’s League. Dr Wicks said that he welcomed the discussion aroused by William Jennings Bryan as to the truth of evolution, though he deplored the amount of ignorance it uncovered and the fangs of bigotry it unsheathed. Pastor Defines Evolution as Continuous Progressive Change He defined evolution as “continuous progressive change according to fixed laws and by means of resident forces.” asserting that “evolution is a proved fact, though the particular laws that determine it are still open # debate. ‘Evolution writes itself in largest cnaracters,” he said, “such as a child may read, in the story of how the earth came to he. It tells of primal fire-mist passing from a gas to a liquid and then to a solid, forming the crust of the earth, gradually becoming fit for the appearance of life. It sees in life a gradual ascent from a creature w r ith but a single nerve cell to such a complex creature as man. It sees in man the lust step in the development of animal life, and Ir. a Jesus the height to which human nature may rise. Dr Wicks then turned to the vari ous sciences and showed how each in turn, confirmed the fact of evolution, to astronomy, geology, embryology and anatomy. “All the facts point not to a fall from primititve perfection, but to the ascent of man,” he said. What Will Be the Effect Upon Orthodox Religion? Continuing, Dr Wicks said: “If we accept evolution as a fact what will be its effect upon religon? Can one be an evolutionist and a Christian at the same time? Mr. Bryan says no. and if he means Orthodox Christiantity I agree with him. Orthodox Christianity totters to its fall with an acceptance of evolution. Why? Because it is built on one foundation which evolution disproves, that is. a fall of man. Upon that the whole edifice rests. Orthodox Christianity has taught that as a consequence of that # mankind lies under the curse of l. He can be restored only through an Infinite sacrifice. After 4,004 years God, for some unexplained reason, re lents, and prepares to make the sacrifice Himself. He descends to earth, impregnates a virgin, and is bom as Jesus. He dies upon the cross and the atonement is made. Those believing this are saved, while all others remain under the original curse "This is the most hideous doctrine ever taught. It means that while one in a thousand enters into eternal bliss, ail others are. suffering unending torment, and this one is the kind of a man who can be happy while millions are writhing in woe. If any one •deserves to be damned it is the man who would accept salvation on those terms. “I rejoice," said Dr. Wicks, “that Jesus taught no such doctrine.” “Evolution faces that doctrine squarely and denies it,” he said. “It sees only the steady ascent of man life, a rise of man. And man, gradually learning the secret of his ascent, may rise higher and higher until he is seen where the psalmist places him, a little lower than God.” ALL TEMPTED BY DEVIL Pastor Says Real Pleasure Conies From Resisting. In a sermon at the St. Paul M. E. Church. Sunday morning, the Rev Frank L. Hovis said all men are subject to the temptations of the devil. He said every person has “mountain top experiences.” real experiences of the raountops, the real pleasure of life, come only with the words, 'get behind me Satan.’ and a following of Christ.” he, said PASTOR RESIGNS PULPIT Minister of Memorial Church Quits After Five Years.

SPRAY AUTO PAINT PROCESS ADOPTED BY NEW FACTORY Enamelite Company Opens; Plant at Keystone Ave, and Tenth St, Adapting the process of applying paftit by steam compression, the j principle followed in 100 per cent of ; the automobile factories in the wrfrld j and 99.4 per cent pf the furniture factories, the Enamelite Company has I opened anew business at Keystone j Ave. and Tenth St., where cars are | repainted by this same method. James H. Ryan is president of; the company. It was explained that! all the paint was removed from the old car by means of chemicals, and j then the job is built ur by means ; of a spray—first applying u gloss coat ! then three surface coats. All mud j and road grease is carefully removed j from underneath the fenders by steam ] before the job is started, so that the ; surface is left smooth and clean. One coat of paint applied by steam ! will equal two coats of brush paint j because of the pressure with which j it is applied. This company Is the only company i in Indianapolis that is applying a satin finish on repainted cars. The j finish is the last word in painting cars and wears longer than a gloss finish because the surface is less susceptible to mars and scratches. The company is specializing In the repainting of Ford cars—-charging S2O for an open roadster, $23 for a touring car and $29 for a coupe or sedan. ;
