LENTEN SPEAKER HITS
CRAZE FOR GOLD; CALLS
FOR REIGN OF SPIRIT
Dr. P K. Fretz Denounces Im
perialism and Demands Re
turn to Life of Culture
and Religion
POINTS TO OLD WORLD
A warning that Americans must give
up their crnzo for gold and pleasuro If
they hopo to escape destruction was Is
sued today by tho itcv. fir. P. K. Fretz.
of Haston, Pa., In a stirring I.enten sermon
In Old St. John's Lutheran rhurch, ltnco
street, below Cth.
Doctor Fretz denounced the statement
of certain prominent labor leaders who
havo said that the church In tho first
century wa3 nothing moro than a labor
movement.
Ito .asserted that Jemis was not a mero
labor reformer, and that Paul was not a
walking delegate. Ho declared that a
better wage would not hasten tho salva
tion of tho age. Ho censured young Amer
ican women ot rich families who trado
their wealth for "worthless titles." Ho
declared that America was drunken with
prosperity.
"Imperialism." said Iioctor Frets, "Is
tho perpetual tenipter of tho young nnd
tho strong. It Is making thousands of
graves for nations In tlio old World,
drunken with tho wlno of power. Tho
wealth and glory of nations were offered
Jesus. Gold Is tho serpent tempter that
bewitches men In our day.
"Afl a peoplo we nro drunken with pros
perity. Wo try to test education by lit
earning power. Wo estimate citizens and
cities by their wealth. Tilled knights
enmo from acres tho seas and lay worth
less coronets nt tho feet of American
maidens whoso fathers havo climbed tho
ladder of success, nnd tho coronet goes
to tho highest bidder. Multitudes of young
men and women rcfuso tho duty of home
making because, they say, they cannot
afford It. Wo havo laid asldo tho Deca
logue, with Its 'Thou Shalt Nots.' and havo
pronounced Christianity Impractical for
tho business woild becauso It will not pay
tho highest dividends.
"This Is our mountain of temptation.
Wo havo forsworn books nnd culture nnd
havo glj;cn up tho old-fashioned Idea of
worship on tho Lord's day as of chief
Importance, and our wholo theory ot life
Is expressed In tho words 'Will It pay?'
"Christ answers tho question, 'What
shall It profit a man If ho gains tho wholo
world nnd loses his own soul7' In this
materialistic ' ngo It Is tho duty of tho
church to call men back to God. Wo
must givo up our crazo after materialism
and pleasure. At times wo nro almost
compelled to think Judgo I.Indsey. of
Denver, IS correct when ho says, 'Amer
ica Is going back to God, or America
will go to tho devil within this genera
tion.' Will you help this generation back
to Hod?"
In refuting tho claims of certain labor
unionists that the church was Intended
to bo purely a labor movement, Doctor
Fretz, said:
"Tho industrial puzzlo Is on all our
tongues. Amid tho clamor for wages and
hours nnd tho rights of tho worklngman,
there. Is a party loudly condemning tho
church -s useless and apostato because
sho docs not becomo a labor union. This
party makes tho falso statement that tho
Church In tho first century was nothing
moro than a Inbor movement. Tho pres
ent problem of bread and butter Is all
thcro Is to their existence. Instead of ful
filling her mission by giving to men the
bread ot life, tho Church hhould reduce
tho high cost of living. Hut Jesus was
not n mero labor reformer. His Church
Is not nn Industrial movement nor the
mero arbitrator of nn economic problem.
I'nul was moro than a walking delegate
among Nero's slaves, -rho first tempta
tion of Jesus was that ho should make
His church and Ills Mos;;inhshlp nn indus
trial rovolutlon and turn stones Into
bread." v

Spring, long awaited and sighed for,
Is ready for her triumphant advent today.
Tho cntranco of spring, marked by tho
passago of tho sun northward across tho
equator at tho vernnl equinox, will occur
at li:47 p. m. Thereafter winter will bo
dead.
This morning's sunrise, tho last of this
winter, was foreboding In Fplto of tho
other propitious omons for good weather.
Tho sunrlso wus blazing red, recalling to
mind that old saying:
rtr.l nt nlclit. s.illnr'a dfllKht:
Itcil In tho mnrnlm., snllnr'H wnrnlne.
Tho weather on winter's last day began
rather promisingly for tho now season. It
was not very cold, considering the past
rather frigid period. A temperature of
2a at six o'clock this morning was tho
lowest tho day could offer, and tho mer
cury nt onco began climbing when tho
bun leaped up Into tho clear sky.
A resumo of tho winter that ends to
day shows It to havo boon a rathor prosaic
sort of winter, starting warm nnd ending
cold. Hy tho 1st ot Mnrch an oxcess tem
perature of 128 degrees had been accumu
lated, but this was rapidly overcome In tho
first 20 days of JInrch (tho last 20 days of
winter), when a deficiency of 147 degrees
was. piled up. This makes tho mean tem
perature for tho winter only a small frac
tion of a degreo below normal, which Is
31.8 degrees.
Tltn lowest for tho winter was 6 de
grees, on February 14; tho. highest, 09
degrees, on January 27. Thcro was ono
exceedingly warm "spell," January 20
February 2, during which sovernl records
wero broken. Tho total precipitation was
10.G1 Inches, n deficiency of 1.40 Inches.
Thero wero 10.7 Inches of snow, tho nor
mal being 19. S Inches.
Tho forecast for today Is Increasing
cloudiness lato tonight. probaly followed
by rain or snow tomorrow; slowly rising
temperature; gentle varlablo winds, be
coming southwest.
