STOKE IX ST. LIKE S CHIRCH
II ia Secretary of the Society for tha In
crease of the Proteatant Episcopal
Ministry- Outline of the Work
It Is Doing.
A most clear and comprehensive arg
ument of the present day novitiate of
the voung ministry wag contained in
the address of Kev. F. D. Hosklns in
St. Luke's Kplscopal church yesterday
morning. Mr. Hosklns Is the corre
sponding secretary of the Society for
the Increase of the Ministry (Protest
ant Kplsctipal) and was in Scranton
for the purpose of securing funds for
the society. He Is no stranger in this
diocese, he having been present at the
laying of St. Luke's corner stone, and
having at one time been for two years
the rector of the Protestant Episcopal
church at Honesdale.
The purpose of tho Society for the
Increase of the Ministry is to aid can
didates who are making a full prep
aration, by granting scholarships
through the college and semlnnry
courses. As explained by Mr. Hos
klns the ministry does not today otter
the inducements of earlier in the cen
tury when a high secular and social
standing wua held out by a community
to any young man who made known
his determination of entering the
priesthood. Today the secular advan
tages of life offer such great attrac
tions for young men, that they, who
espouse to minister to man by bring
ing about a reconrlllr.ion with God,
are entitled to unusual, aid and sym
pathy, things, however, which are hid
den by the very nature of the age.
ORGANIZED FORTY YEAKS.
Mr. Hosklns stated that the society
was organized forty years ago. In be
coming a financial help to ministry can
didates It carefully examines the phy
sical, moral and mental Qualities of
each. They are required to write per
iodical letters to the secretary of the
society und they are regularly visited
at their schools and seminaries. They
must maintain a standing of not less
than i0 per cent. While the major part
of the society's funds are raised in
the Middle and New Knglund states a
huge iioi t Ion of the beneficiaries are
from the west and south.
Mr. Hosklns' text was: Corinthians v,
IS, "And all things are of God, who
huth rekindled us to himself by Jesus
'hrlst und hath given to us the min
istry of reconciliation."
He cited the fact that religious min
istry hus existed for all time and In
this connection referred to it as a de
partment of state in the Roman gov
ernment and iuid passing mention to
the prophets, priests, almoners, etc.
of old. Always the basis of ministry
has been the effort to reconcile man to
God. Today, when the world Is so
much better and when man is more dls
posed to do his own thinking fewer
young men, comparatively, have the
inclination to devote their lives to mak
ing disclolcs in all the world, und the
encouragement of the world Is corre
spondlngly lessened. There wus a time
wheu a young man of a household was
set aside to become one of the Al
mlghty's evangelists, when fathers and
mothers moulded the son's life and
study uccoidlng to the work he was to
perform and when his choice won for
111 in not merely a passing notice but
an universal respect and even rever
ence.
HKSITATR NOWADAYS.
Young men nowadays hesitate before
accepting individual aid or the aid of
a congregation. In such cases, too, the
candldute does not get the practical
ana impartial oversight which is glv
en by the society. The financial af
fairs of the society are managed by
an executive committee on which the
lnity is represented by prominent pro
fessional and business men. Every
dollar of the society s funds Is draw
ing Interest.
Mr. Hosklns' general reciuest for
financial aid was followed by a more
energetic but briefer appeal by Rev.
Jtogers Israel, rector of St. Luke's.
The offering of the morning service
was for the society and was a generous
one.
FORTY 1IOUKS' DEVOTION.
Megan Yesterday Morning In St. I'otcr's
Cathedral
Forty Hours' devotion began at St.
Peter's cathedral yesterday morning
with a solemn high mass at 10.30. Rev.
,T. A. O'Reilly was celebrant, Rev. T. F.
Parmody was deacon: Rev. J. W. Ma
lone was sub-deacon, and Rev. James
McAndrew was master of ceremonies.
After mass Father O'Reilly gave out
the announcements. Masses, he said
will be celebrated this morning, tomor
row and Wednesday mornings at 5, 6.
7 and 8 o'clock. Confessions will be
heard from 7 to S, from 10 to 12, from 3
to 6. and after services until all are
heard. That applies to today and to
morrow. The evenlnc services begin at 7.30,
and consist of a sermon and benedic
tion. The sermon this evening will be
preached by Rev. P. F. Qulnnan, of
rittston. There will be no sermon to
morrow evening, In order that the con
fessions of all can be heard
Rev. M. 1J. Donlan, of St. Mary's
cnurcn, punmnre, prearjiied last night
and his Etmn'ii was on the necessity
of avoiding the temptations of sin,
Some will argue, he said, that the
strict observance of the commandments
by those out in the world Is requiring
too much: that it Is all right to lay
down mis ruie tor monks, priests, sis
ters and others of religious communi
ties.
ONE RULE FOR ALL.
God. the speaker, said, laid down one
rule for all. no matter what station
of life they are in. Jesus delivered the
same gospel alike to the religious as to
the worldly. Of course It Is difficult to
be humble in the midst of so many am
bltions, mortified In the midst of so
many luxuries and pure in the midst o
so mucn uetiiement.
The way to serve God in the world
Is to avoid the occasions of sin. There
are two classes of men: the one who
observes the commandments and lives
piously, soberly and Justly; he must be
on nis guard at all times lest he fall.
The other class consists of the man
who eour's sin and revels In It. He
very seldom rises out of the mire.
Father I Ionian defined the occasions
of sin with regard to those In whose
hearts there Is a love for God, as gen
erally bad company, bad books, dnn
gerous places -of amusement. There
are some things that at one time or
another form the occasion of sin. What
be an occasion of sin to one person
might not to another. The law of God
is that we must avoid evil and do
good: we must separate from everv or
caslon, abandon everything that lm
perils our salvation, though It be as
dear as the apple of our eye.
SHOULD UK I1AN1SHED,
The sneaker said that all bad book
and papers and trashy literature should
be baiuslird from our homes as mur
dercra of souls. Prayer will clothe the
soul with grace and Christian watch
fulness will arm us against the as
saults of the devil, The soul that pre
sumcs too much on God's- mercy will
be shipwrecked. God will not work a
miracle to save one who courts temp
tatton.
In conclusion Father Donlan said
that though we may hove fallen again
and again the season of the forty hours
now at nana is the time for us to hum
t ble ourselves, ask pardon for our sins,
with a firm determination to live hence
forth in the love of God. The yoke la
sweet and the burden is light, and this
may be the last opportune time of grace
for mnnv. tor some, at least, will be
dead before the next forty hours. The
Eieaker admonished the hard-hearted
lerson to beware of the judgment of
God.
There Is no place better than in the
presence of the blessed sacrament ex
posed on the altar to seek forgiveness.
Sod created man and man rebelled, and
then to redeem him He came down
from heaven and was crucified on Cal
vary. Rut He left His body and blood
with Ills church and is ever ready to
bestow His graces upon all who but
ask and seek them.

Of "The Kodak," which appears here

" 'The Kodak,' the farce-comedy now
on at Davis' theater, is drawing large
crowds.
"The show is one without a regular
plot, but the uproarious laughter It
causes atones for the absence of that
feature. Every person in the play Is a
musician and the musical specialties
abound. Encores were frequent and'
ueserveu. Manager Davis Is to be con
gratulated on bringing such an attrac

cupy the boards at Davis' until tomor
