—Sunday Sermon — GREATNESS OF RELIGION RESTS ON JUDGMENT Importance Emphasized in Both Old and New Testaments. Text: Matt. 25:31-46 a a a BY WM. E. GILROY, D. D. Editor of Advance Judgment is a great word and a great idea in the Old and New Testaments. It is what marks the greatness of both Old Testament religion and New Testament religion; for there can be no greatness of religion where there are not high and exacting standards. The failure to understand that sometimes has led to slackness, to the promulgation of religions that have not required much from those

who believed in them and followed them. Sometimes the exactions of religion have been so formal and have had so little to do with moral or spiritual reality that there has been a strong reaction, and from being apparently too strict people have come to make a sort of religion of lack of strictness. The late Dr. George A. Gordon of Old South church, in Boston, once preached a great sermon on judgment, in which he represented judgment as the supreme thing in life of an earnest and honest man, the one great goal toward which he was moving. Surely this is true in every sphere of honest life and labor. The artist does not wish to produce something cheap or worthless. He values judgment upon his work and he is anxious to satisy the critics who know. The honest workman wants his work to stand the test. He does not resent the discovery of some flaw, because he wants to make his work perfect. What was the idea that Jesus aad of judgment? He thought it v/as inevitable for man, and He pictured all life as moving toward the great last judgment. We do not know how much the portrayal in

our lesson is symbolic, but at any rate it is symbolic of a real fact. It is not surprising that men should fear judgment as much as they seek it. They want judgment to be fair and reasonable. They do not want to be in the hands of some arbitrary judge who will be swayed by prejudice or by hate. Jesus taught that we are to be judged by a God of love, who understands all that enters into the judgment. Yet He indicated that this judgment would be stern, if it also was loving. It would reveal all sham and pretense of life. It was a judgment in which little deeds of kindness and gentle words would outweigh all profession of reighteousness where there had been no sincerity of kindness in act or word. So we have this striking portrayal of some of those who professed the most being turned away in spite of their claims, while those who had given a cup of cold water, in the name of Jesus, to a thirsty woman, were approved by Christ, though they felt their own unworthiness. The teaching of the lesson is so clear and plain that words can add hardly anything to the reality of Christ’s great picture. All life moves toward the judgments of an exacting, but a just, righteous, and loving God.

COUNTY FACES HUGEDEFICIT Spring Revenue 14 Per Cent Off; Curtailment of Expense Asked A large treasury deficit for Marion county at the end of the current year was predicted yesterday by Fabian Biemer, chief deputy auditor, after receiving a report on spring tax collections. The collection, totaling $7,623,480.77, indicated a delinquency of 14 per cent. A request for all county departments to begin immediate .curtailment of appropriations in anticipation of the operating deficit, was made by Mrs. Biemer. The current operating budget was based on tax collections for the year of $17,785,304.03, and of $8,892,652.02 at the spring payment. Delinquency collections on 1932 taxes totaled approximately $783,000, but the collection will not reduce the current delinquency because the difference between the anticipated

delinquency and the total delinquency at the fall payment last year weis in excess of the $783,000 figure.

MODERATOR IS DESIGNATED BY PRESBYTERIANS The Rev. Dr. Chalmers, a Native of Indiana, Is Honored. By United Press CLEVELAND, May 26. —Taking over the highest post in the Presbyterian church, the Rev. Dr. William Chalmers Covert, newly elected moderator, was presented at yesterday's sessions with an historic gavel. The gavel was fashioned by students of Western Reserve academy, Hudson, 0.. whose ivied buildings served as the place of worship at the first educational institution in the Western Reserve under care of the Presbyterian church. Mr. Covert was chosen moderator late yesterday from among three candidates. His choice constituted the first setback of the fundamentalist or orthodox group,

which had backed the Rev. James C. McConnell, Upper Darby, Pa. The new moderator succeeds Dr. John McDowell. Dr. Covert, 70, is retiring at the present session sis general secretary of the board of Christian education in Philadelphia, a post he had held for several years. Moderator Covert appointed Elder Earle S. Hoover, Glenside, Pa., as vice-moderator, and Elder F. Leonard Wailes, Salisbury, Md., as chairman of the assembly’s finance committee. A heavy docketed schedule of routine faced the sessions today. Meanwhile, it was learned today, that only one and one-half hours will be given to the entire question of proposed organic union with the United Presbyterian church. Indications are that the 920 assembly commissioners will adopt the proposal by an 8 to 1 vote. The general council has completed its plans for suppressing the independent board of foreign missions, headed by Dr. J. Gresham Machen, fundamentalist power. The plans were being carefully guarded until announced to the assembly. The new moderator was bom in a Presbyterian community in Indiana, settled by his grandfather and four of his grandfather’s brothers. He began his ministry in Michigan in 1888.
