OR. WICKS FROM PULPIT ANSWERS RUPERT ROGUES Pastor Finds Author's Reasons Worthy of Consideration, 44 Wfiy Rupert Hughes Quit Going to Church" was the theme of a Sunday sermon by Dr. Frank S. C. Wicks of All Soul? Unitarian Church. Under this sermon title Dr. Wicks answered and considered the reasons advanced by Hughes in a recent magazine article giving his reasons for not going to church. ‘‘lf Rupert Hughes stood alone,” Dr. Wicks said, “or represented but a small group, his reasons for quitting church attendance would not be important, but as representing many men, his reasons are worth considering. “He says that he quit because he came to ‘believe that what is preached in the churches is mainly untrue or unimportant or tiresome or hostile to progress and in general not worth while.* “These are good reasons if well founded.” Dr. Wicks said in admitting that he had heard in churches some things that did not seem to him true; at times he had found sermons tiresome and in modest moments he had feared that he delivered some himself. He said that he had read sermons that seemed hostile to progress and had heard some that were as progressive as the Sermon on the Mount.

Answers Hnghee “Mr. Hughes cannot believe,” Dr. Wicks maintained, ‘‘that ministers and congregations really believe In the creeds of their churches and that many preachers preach what they do not believe in order to hold their jobs. “I should want unquestionable evidence before 1 helieved in such insincerity. Mr. Hughes is troubled by the contradictions he finds in the Bible, and mentions a number of palpable contradictions. “He revolts from the scientific Cachings for the Bible, but, most of ft I. the teaching of an endless hell ft rages him. As for the central 1 >ctrine of Christianity, the atonement, he says he cannot understand It, but nevertheless he condemns it. “Reading history. Mr. Hughes is dismayed to find that the worst crimes ih every nation were committed in the name of religion, and concludes that religion in power is the greatest curse of mankind. Indictment Too Broad Dr. Wicks went on to say that Mr. Hughes has confined his attendance to churches holding to a narrow, orthodox creed, and ignores of churcljes that cannot be included in his indictment. “There are thousands of churches where Mr. Hughes’ objections will not hold,” Dr. Wicks said. “Churches where only reasonable things are taught; where religion bows before the superior authority of science; where the doctrines of an endless hell and an atonement are rejected. “So far as I know, every educated minister accepts the facts of evolution. I cannot answer for the

I differ in my beliefs from most ministers, but I think their sincerity is quite as evident as mine. “It is to be regretted that Mr. Hughes did not state what kind of a church he would attend. If he will, I will give him the names of many where he will find his own convictions expressed," Dr. Wicks declared. NEW CHURCH IS OPENED God Should Be First in God’s House, Says Speaker.

The Wonderful Story of Life!

When your boy or girl comes to you. Mother or Father, with the first question, “Where did baby come from?" how do you answer that question? A wholesome curiosity about birth and sex exists in all normal children. It is implanted by nature. When your boy or girl comes with that first inevitable question about the wonderful mystery of life, your opportunity, dear mother or father, has come. An evasion or a falsehood now may be disastrous. When tho child discovers it has been deceived it is not likely to return to its mother when it wishes to learn more. It will go elsewhere. Do you want your child to learn the facts of sex and birth and life from chance companions, dirty minded outsiders, or do you
