''Jt want to lake two text, one from
Ote Bible arid on from outside the Bible.
! One la the. expression of a human desire,
the other Is the answer to that desire.
"Gerald Stanley tee In ft recent article
6n advertising goodness Bald this: '1 want
t be p6bd, but I don't wnnt to go up
frtto a. mountain to do It, or slink, off
n$ HW nil alone on ah Island In the sea.1
"Th other tet I want to take U from
n of lh6 Immortal prnyern of the Mas
tr when Ifo lifted III voice toward the
stars and said, 'I pray not that thou
trfrwtd'sl tako them put of tho wo'ld but
that thou ahould'at keep them from tho
evil, (John 17sl5.)'
"There have been throughout all the
centuries, two Ideas of goodness, tho posi
tive and the negative. The negative In
dex ha been that In order to be good
a. man must run away from the world.
That positive Idea has been that In order
to bo not only good but good for some
thing a man must get Into tho world.
"I want to rnlso tho question today as
to which Is the Christian Idea of religion.
I waht to strike tho death blow at tho
Idea that being n Christian take a man
out of th busy whirl of tho world s life
ttnd activity and ninkca him a spineless
and effeminate proposition.
"I do not bellevo that a man has to run
nway from the world In oidcr to be re
ligious. I, too, havo felt as you iave,
with Mr. Le, that I did not want to eo
up Into a mountain or slink oft all a!oi
and live, on an Island In tho Bea In order
to bo (food, and t faco th6 Job or being a
Christian with Joy, when I hear Jesus
saying: I pray not that thou ahouldst
take them out of tho world," for I know
that He expects a man to bo good, not
alonb behind stone walla of religious In
stitutions, hut In tho rough and tumble
of overy-day life
"I want to write an Indictment against
the idea of running" away from the world
In order to bo good. In this Indlctmont
there shall be. four counts. Running- away
from the world In order to bo good makea
religion a matter of placo and observance
When a man locked himself In a mon
astery In an offeort to achieve goodness
by that act ho said It was easier to be
religious n a sheltered place than out In
tho hard-paved street. And that religion
consisted solely In certain observance,
such ns prayer, meditation und Bible
reading.
"Just so there la In America a type
of man who seems to think that his re
ligion Is summed up In the doing of a
lot of special things, such as ntteudlng
church, singing psalms, saying prayers,
etc., and who socms to think that re
ligion la confined to ono day In the week
and that the other six are the legltlmato
field of the secular. Phillips Brooks had
at one time In his church such a man.
His religion on Sunday was beyond
criticism, but on every other day In the
week he did not allow his religion to
Interfere with any of his plans or places.
And every tlmo Phillips Brooks 'ap
proached any man In that city on the
subject of religion this man was con
stantly brought Into the conversation.
Phillips Brooks was one of those men who
believed that If n preacher had any
criticism to make on a man's conduct
there was Just olio place to make It,
and that was squarely Into the man's
teethi
"So Phillips Brooks said to the man:
TSvery tlmq I approach any man In this
community orr the matter of religion
your nnmo Is mentioned, nnd men say
that, while jou Deems to be loyal to
your religion on Sunday, on weekdays
they find you a man of-vvery low busi
ness Ideals and tricky methods. Now.
why should you t6 a different man on
Monday or Wednesday or Saturday thnn
aunaoyr xno mans answer Is a
algnincant thing. Ho did not blush. Ho
Old not stammer, but said: 'Well, you
ennnot expect a man to be pious all the
time, can you? You cannot expect a
man to be attending vesper sen-Ices all
tho time? You cannot expect a mon to
be reading his Bible all the time or
praying all the time, can you? A-man
has to earn" his bread.'
"Just as though earning one's bread
and being religious were utterly Incon
sistent and incompatible. Just as though
religion consisted solely In attending
church services, reading tho Bible, sing
ing psalms' nnd praying. Just as though
religion consisted In doing a lot of spe
cial things. As I have eald so many
times before, religion does not consist In
doing a. lot of special things, even though
those special things be good things; but
religion consists In doing all things in a
special way.
"Religion is not a matter of time, place,
circumstance or onservance, and, there
fore, an Idea of religion which either lit
erally or (Igurathely causes a man to
run away from the world In ordor to be
' good Is a false Idea of religion.
"Running away from the world In or
der to be good makes religion selfish.
"If a man runs away from the world
In order to be good, by hts very act he
says that religion lu simply and only a
private affair with him a .something
labeled for external use and home con
sumption only.
"Wb have produced In America by that
Idea a religious type of men who arc re
ligious In the best sense of the word In
their private lives, but who In their pro
fessional commercial, social and Indus
trial relations wftere other people are
concerned do not seem to think that their
religion need necessarily enter. In other
words, this Idea of religion has produced
men whose private lives are good, but
whose public lives are very bad. For
Instance; We have produced men who.
While they would not shoot a man with
ml pistol, will alt In New York cJty or
Philadelphia and by a vote In the board
of directors' meeting set In motion forces
Which ultimately may take a man's Ufa

ward. Wen who would not pick 'the
pockets of ope man with tho fingers of
their hand will, without hesitation, pick
the pockets of 8tf,tXX),0OO people with the
fingers of their monopoly or commercial
advantage. Men In whoso hands the
virtue of your wife or daughter Would
be ns safe ns In your own, but who wilt
every year drive hundreds of cases
of virtue over the line Into Vlco by
Che pressure of starvation wages which
they pay. Men who will gladly draw
their check for 110,009 and give It to n
children's hospital and see nothing rldlcu
luus Irt the fnct that the $10,000 for the
children's hospital came out of $20,000
made from a system of child labor which
crushes more children In one year thnn
the hospital will heal in 10. In other
words, this idea has produced a type of
man In America who seems to be very
religious In his private life, but exactly
the opposite In his public life.
"By this Idea of religion, we have pro
duced a type of man who will bo true
to his wife and his marriage vows, hut
will go out ahd graft In politics. Wo
have a type of man who will n6t sell you
poison while you are looking at him, but
Will sell adulterated food that will kill
people KOO miles nway. If religion don't
make you sell good goods, It Isn't worth
three whoops this side of hell, t Pjy. I
don't give a snap of my finger for what
a man's private life Is If his public lite
Is rotten. I don't give a rap how pious
you look on Sunday If you look like the
devil on Monday.
"Somebody needs to say It so loudly
that It can be heard around the world
that Christianity Is a. religion not only
for the private life of a man, but a re
ligion to be translated' Into every nook
and corner of his life, publlo as well as
private. t haven't much respect for a
man's religion an It walks down tho car
peted nlslo of a -cnthedrat If he falls to
mnko good tho 'next morning behind his
counter.
"Running away from, the world In or
dr to bo good makes morality negative.
Tho idea In running away from the world
Is, of course, to get away from the bad
things nnd from temptations, and when
ever a man adopts that policy Invariably
his wholo life Is fcpent In the attempt to
be not bad. Now, of course, there must
bo a negative side' to morality. A man
can never bo tho man ho ought to bo un
less lie does riot do certain things, hut,
after all, that Is only half of 'morality.
"You hnve seen .men whose wholo re
ligion was summed up In a decalogue of
don'ta and whose wholo effort seemed
to bo to cuib the life of the world.
"Morality Is posUhe as well as nega
tlvo, nnd when a man has succeeded In
not doing the bad things of life ho has
won but the first half of the battle. To
that negative side he mutt add a great
positive side.
"tt Is significant that Jesus said "Thou
shalt' oftener than he said "Thou shalt
not.' I think Ho did that because He
knew that the best way lo avoid dolns
bad things waa U be everlastingly busy
doing good things. Every now and then
I hear romebody say, 'I tried to'be good,
but I could riot,' I haven't much, sym
pathy with that tpo. for I know that In
nine cases out of ten tho manhaan't tried
to be good ni all. Ho simply tried not to
bo bad and. trying to be. not bad Is about
the most difficult and discouraging Job In
the world. It Is Just like trying to'be not
extravngant or not anything. If, you over
tried to be not extravngant, you know
how hard a thing It Is.
"I heard of a man the other day who
solved the problem of extravagance 'and
economy In the only sensible way. Ills
wife was overspending the family Income,
something had to be done. He knew. It
would do no good to give her a curtain
lecture on economy. It would simply
brjng on another one of those domestic
explosions whose names are legion. In
stead of that he came Into the room with
a smile and said, 'Mary, I saw a Baldwin
grand piano in tho store this afternoon
which I think wo ought to have. Bundlo
up the kids nnd we'll go down this eve
ning and look It over.' The wife nearly
fainted, she did not know whether John
was sick or getting religion, or what was
the matter with him. But she and the
children went. The man demonstrated
the piano and John said, 'Send it up.'
They bought it, lllte many of you buy
your things, on the Instalment plan. Up
to that time John had not hinted economy,
but Mary of her own accord said, 'John,
If we over pay for this piano we will have
to be a llttlo more economical In our
spending.' John smiled and said, 'all
right.' Tho wlfq began to figure out this
place and that place where savings could
be made and those savings were made
nnd by the time tho Baldwin grand was
paid for the entire family had got tho
habit of economy and did not break away
from it after, the piano was paid for. You
see he understood tho negative is never
the best side on which "to npproach a
problem, and there Is a Baldwin grand
principle In religion as there Is in econom
ics, and the man who becomes wrapped
up In the Job of being nnd doing big
and positively good things need never
worry very much about avoiding tho bad
things that will come as a byproduct of
his battle for goodness.
''Running away from the world In order
to be good Is not Christian. Of course, I
know that the adjective 'Christian' is
rather a tricky adjective to use before
the average American audience; there nro
so many notions and Ideas nbout Chris
tianity that you are never quite sure that
a crowd knows what you mean when you
say Christian; but I assume that that Is
Christian which is most like Jesus, and
certainly If there ever was a person who
did not run away from the world In order
to be good It was Jesus. He mingled
freely and frankly with the rough and
tumble of everyday life. He rubbed
elbows with all aorta and conditions of
men. He did it so freely that religious
high brows of the day criticised him se
verely; they called him a glutton, a
wine bibber and a friend of publicans
and sinners.
"Now wo use the- phrase The Friend of
Publicans and Sinners' In our sermons
today as a high compliment fo Jesus,
and rightly so. But we ought to remem-

her that when those words were first
spoken they were Intended as a sneer
and a criticism against Jesus for rubbing
elbows with all sorts and conditions of
mon. And it Is a supreme compliment
to Jesus that He could take this sneer
from the curling lips of scorn and trans
mute It Into the greatest compliment
paid to any one.
"There's the samo old carping criticism
In Philadelphia, today that Jesus had. to
contend with. Samo old devil's at work.
TV'o consider them as compliments.
"Jesus did run around with a very com
mon sort, but when .He left them thoy
were not quite, so common as they were
before He - met them, and that Is tho
acid test of our religion, when you fol
low It directly Into tho heart of the
world.
"Your sole thought should not be to
keep the. man by your sldo from drug
ging you to hell, but your aolo thought
( should be leading tho man to Heaven.
Certalnlv Jesus was not ascetic, jus
goodness was not of tho hothouse varlty,
it was a robust, red-blooded type that
did 'not fear contact with tho world.
"JTor theso four reasons I am con
vinced that to be a Christian does not
demand running away from the world
In order to save one's self half eo much
as it does getting Into tho world In order
to save It.
"The sentence haB been ringing down
the centuries. 'What shall It profit a
man if he gain the whole world nnd lose
his own soul.' But when once a man s
soul has been saved It Is a good thing
for him to say. 'What shalt it profit a
man if he save his own bouI but the
whole world be lost?'
"In tho thinking of Jesus, religion wbb
two things: First an nntl-toxin render
ing a man Immune from tho poisons of
sin.
"Second, a powder blast behind the man,
sending him like a bullet Into the very
centre of the world, there to act ns
leaven on the lump, and as a witness
to the world of the Lord Jesus Christ."
Sunday Scores Child
Labor Employers
Continued from rge One
that the 110,000 for the child's hospital
came out of $200,000 made from a system
of child labor which crushes more chil
dren In one year than the hospital will
heal In ten.
"In other words, this Idea has produced
a type of man In America who seems to
be very religious In his private life, but
exactly the opposite In his public life."
Sunday said he wanted to write an In.
dlctment against the Idea of running
away from the world In order to be good.
He insisted that no church member could
be a good Christian, no matter how pious
he might bo on the Sabbath, if he didn't
take his Christianity with him behind the
counter.
A ItELIGION OF DON'TS.
"You have seen men whose wholo re
ligion was summed up In a decalogue of
don'ts and whose whole effort seemed to
be to curb the life of the world," said the
evangelist. "Morality Is positive as well
as negative, and when a man has suc
ceeded In not doing the bad things of life
ho has won but the first half of the bat

great positive side. It Is significant that

because the best way to avoid doing bad
things was to be everlastingly doing good
things."
"Billy" said ho had no sympathy with
that typo of persons who said they tried
to bo good but could not. In nine out
of ten cases, ho declared, such mon
haven't tried to be good at all, but simply
tried not to bo bad. "It Is Just like try
ing not to bo extraagnnt or not any
thing." smiled "Billy."
At the close of Sunday's sermon nnd
ono of tho most Impassioned prayers he
ha? offered In Philadelphia, S7 men nnd
women "hit the sawdust troll" nnd pro
fessed their belief In Jeaus Christ.
The pleasant weather brought another
great throng to the tabcrnaclo for the
afternoon services. Crowds began to
urilve thcro before 10 o'clock In tho
morning and by noon the building was
half filled. Again the musical program,
previous to the sermon, proved a treat
to the thousands who anxiously awaited
the arrival of the ovangcllst.
The Newspaper Carriers' Association
delegation received a warm welcome
from "Itodey,"- who told how much the
Philadelphia newspapers are doing to
help the campaign.
They presented "Billy" with a beautiful
clock, which ho accepted with many
thanks. "It's a peach," he said, and
smiled. "And I like n clock, except early
In the morning." "Rodey" read a poem
to tho evangelist offered by the delega
tion. Sunday mado a plea this afternoon for
everybody to help swell tho special col
lections for the benefit of the Emergency
Aid Committee tomorrow afternoon and
Friday evening. Ho will preach his ser
mon on "Amusements" tomorrow after
noon and evening and on Friday night
and Saturday afternoon, when there will
be special services for high school pu
pils. 'Warm words of commendation of tho
campaign of "Billy" Sunday In Philadel
phia were included In a letter members
of the executive committee Bent the
evangelist today. In which they invited
him to extend his campaign here. They
ask that he extend It to at least ten
weeks.
Although Mr, Sunday had not decided
to lematn that long, Mrs. Sunday said
he was giving the matter serious con
sideration. He announced somo time ago
he would remain nine weeks Instead
of eight, nnd Mrs. Sunday said his de
cision legardlng ten weeks would depend
on the condition of his mother's health.
She also pointed out that, while he was
going to Faterson, K, J for a campaign,
he had given no definite assurance of
the date on which he would start serv
ices In that place'. This lends encour
agement to those who nro anxious to
have the local campaign period length
ened. The Interest In the meetings here Is
growing dally, and requests for reserva
tions for one day, George M. Sunday an
nounced today, amounted to 126,000 seats,
or more than six times the capacity of
the tabernacle.
That tho Sunday campaign is going to
wield a great Influence for cleaner politics
In Philadelphia and against "booze"
controlled politicians was Indicated last
night when, previous to the sermon, mem
bers of a delegation of about 2000 of the
Bev. George G, Dowey's "Billy" Sunday
Bible classes sang a new song for "honest
votes" to the tune of the popular revival
hymn, "If Your Heart Keeps Right."
This Is the new "clean politics" and
antl-booze" song that promises to be sung

Unitarian
Christianity
God la not wrath, but love. He Is
far nway, but He Is also near, flod
was In Jesus, but In tho same way
Ho Is Incarnate in us today. God
created all existing things, but It
was done under His law of evolu.
tlon, and In that law Ho Is creating
fliui. 'ino wona is not nniBne,u, ana
truth In not nil revealed.
If you would find God, seek Mm
In tne lace of your menu, look aiso
within your own soul. God la there.
This evening at 8 o'clock:, at the
Glrard Avenue Unitarian Church,
1520 Glrard avenue,
The ncr. George Crosswell Crcssejr,
Ph. D D. D., of New York,
Speaks on
OUR HELPFUL CONCEPTION
OF GOD
Why not hear him?
Kvery day about thirty perions
rirnn in at the. Unitarian Book Boom
nnd take tho free literature. Why
will you not reaa tnese tioerai viewa
that are bringing a light straight
from heaven to many who have felt
perplexed? If you despise Unltarl
unlsm, you havo been misinformed
In regard to It, If you fear It, yost
have not understood It. If you are
wholly Ignorant concerning It, you
havo neglected a treasury ot splfr
ltual power.
