e Latest Announcements of Church News, | Sunday ! BY REV. HUGH T. STEVENSON. OF COURAGE. -10; 32; '35 12; JEREMIAH, THE PROPHET I 7:1-15; -19 42: 36 11; Golden ~ Text—Watch ve, stand fast in the faith, quit you' like men, be strong.— [HEE O Cor. 16:13. Memorial day recalled to the nation the record of the heroes whose courageous conduct has carried the American flag to victory upon every battlefield. Frequently we have been surprised by the personalities of those whose records have won for | them a place in the nation’s hall of fame. Back of thelr heroic deeds has been the inspiration of the woman Who has trod the wine press of af- fliction. Mothers, wives, sisters and sweethearts have helped many a man to go over the top to victory and Some of the most heroic have men like Jeremiah, whom the d has thought of largely as a weeping prophet. Our lesson empha- dizes the fact that he was a prophet €: courage. Jeremian, meaning that “the Lord €asts down,” is an indication of his! times and character. It took a man of courage to stand up for Jehovah and proclaim in that hour of apos- tacy the truths of Jehovah. People, | prophets and priests had departed from God and the nation had become rebellious. 1t was not an hour for a trimmer or time server. It was a moment demanding courage. In this hour of desolation, darkness and despair the voice of the Lord sum- moned a timid, inexperienced and, in His own pudgment, an Yyouth to proclaim ' the unpopular| message of Jehovah in the travail| of national agony and decline. God 8aw in this timid, shrinking son of| an almost unknown priest, whose | training was in the village within less than an hour's walk of Jerusalem, a| soul who could understand the depths | of divine compassion and His longing to save the nation. Matheson has| found the source of Jeremiah's mel- | ancholy to Le of a mental nature.| He joints out Bight of his own personality in his| Vicarious sorrow. He was over- Bhelmed with the divine burden. His! Epirit groaned with dNine grief. J hovah met His prophet’s human | Yeukness with His own strength. He trunsformed the weeping prophet into & courageous preacher of right- eousness. who with confidence traced out before the dying nation God| shaping the new order out of the| discussion of the old. In the death| struggle of the central figure because of his con- | fidence God and his faith in reality of his personal call to be a pronhet Jeremiah proved by his work the Eenuineness of his call, which lacked some of the elements that have made the summons of others to absolutely supernatural character. God in of calls every man to a definite mission, | but none have ever been called to a m tragic service than Jeremiah, the prophet of hard times and re- construction. Jehovah gave the an-| cient prophet his strength, courage | and power to fearlessly meet the bitter opposition of friends, famil and false prophets in a lifelong martyrdom. ~ The eccleslastic ai thorities, the corrupt court and venial priests opposed him, but “the fire in his bones” could not be extinguished. Tt was inevitable that Jeremiah would by his plain speaking arouse the hostility of both the ecclesias- tical and political powers of his day. | During the largest part of his min- isi:v he was In constant danger of Josing his life. During a ministry that covered at least forty vears he led a forlorn hope, pointing out the dangers that threatened the nation and the pathway of escape. The re- forms started during the reign o Joash, probably with the prophet’s approval, did not penetrate the real life of the nation. The heart of the nation remained unconverted, so that the reforms died with Joash. Secret sins became open. The forces of dis- integration soon revealed themselve: in the moral. religious, political and commercial life of the people. During the reign of Jehoiakim the mation faced an imminent peril, They assembled within the temple to wor- 8hip Jehovah and secure safety by a serics of sacrifices. It was an hour that called for Jeremiah to decide Wwhether he would be a coward or a courageous champion of righteous- School Lesson inefficient | that the prophet lost| Judah, Jeremiah became ! the | be of an| too great, for the prophet to sacrifice his manhood or message to please the people, who, shutting their eyves to the dangers which threatened the na- tion from within, blindly trusted to the services of the temple to save Judah from the dangers which threatened her from without. When Jeremiah fearlessly -applied the test of life, love and labor to their reli- glon they were welghed in the bal- ances and found wanting. He con- demned formalism of religion because it lacked morality. He demanded that they make their life good by & genuine reform, through repentance and a réturn unto God's true prophets for guidance. He exposed the hy- pocrisy of the priests and the false prophets, who promised the nation safety through sacrifices, which serv- ed to increase the revenues of the priests of the temple. Jeremiah com- plied with his commission, to *“keep not back a word,” for he warned them that unless they, as a people, lived up to the true religion, that the temple would become like Shiloh—once the abode of the tabernacle and ark—a place of ruins, and Jerusalem would become a curse to the nations. The prophet was charged with trea- son, heresy and blasphemy, which was a capital offense, because he dared to demand the worship of the heart and the work of a life as an cvidence of true religion. They ac- cused him with treason. because in the hour of the country's danger he had discouraged the people from car- rying out the government’s plans for national safety. They claimed that Jeremiah was a heretic, because his word was untrue and not from God. The religious leaders’ sought his life, because he had declared that the temple would be destroyed, which was blasphemy. In that hour of per- sonal peril Jeremiah faced death un- afraid, because God was his strength and defense, His loyally to Jehovah and Judah was proven by the fact that he took advantage of the opportunity present- d by his defense to call upon his fel- low countrymen to repent, reform and réturn unto God for mercy and for- giveness. God rewarded his faith by |using His power by protecting the prophet and securing for him a square deal from the elders and princes who passed judgment upon his activities. Jeremiah's defense was that he had only spoken God's word. While'it is evident that he expected the worst from their hands, as he assured them | that he did not fear death, although he deplored recelving it at thelr hands, because of the fate it would bring upon them. Ahikan defended Jeremiah, demanded that he be ac- quitted. Upon the records of the false prophets and Jeremiah, the lat- | ter was cleared of the false accusa- ns He was not a pacifist but a patriot, whose patriotism was based upon spiritual idealism. He placed religion above patriotism. His political pro- gram was inspired by his religious aith. He was a red-bleoded 100 per | | cent citizen of Judah, . ho realized | | because of his vision of Judah's des- | tiny that the only hope of her con- | tinuing as a permanent nation was | through the country bec oming a de- | pendency of Babylon. Jeremiah recog- nized that Jerusalem held a strate- gic_position in the pathway of the | emplre. between the Euphrates and | the Nile. History has vindicated the positions taken by the prophet whoi abored among his fellow country-| men like Savanarola did in Florence. He exhibited the courage of his con- | victions by recording them. He back- | ed them up with cash, buying at pre- war prices the ground covered by the | tents of the army of Nebuchadnezzar, | n evidence of h faith that God | would protect Jerusalem. He appcaled to the people by 5_\||\-l bols and used every up-to-the-min- ure method to secure the regenera- | tlon of his countrymen. He discover- jed the value of the individual. He| endured the punishment of imprison- | ment within a dungeon, “below the | dungeon, knee-deep in the unimagin- able mire, where foul reptiles| wound through the darkness and | deadly odors nauseated and suffocated.” | His faith did not flinch. He followed his convicticns into the exile, and, ac- cording to tradition, he met a vio- lent death at the hands of the people upon whomehe was pressing his con- victions. Like all the world's great men, Jeremiah was not esteemed much in life. The oppressed people of all ages have found a message of en- couragement in his prophecies, that! to a large extent the prophecies for the period in which we mow live. No Old Testament ever caught a clearer picture of Jesus than did Jeremiah He found God's message in the pot- | ter's wheel. He did not hesitate to! wear the yoke to proclaim his Lord He utilized the loyal Rechabites to| ' ness, religion and reform. The dan- ger was too real, the cause of religion Baron Krupp Eats Prison Stew, Spurning Special Privileges| Ex-Kaiser'’s F riend Blacks His Boots in Common Cell.

DUSSELDORF, June 2. —Baron Gustay Krupp von Bohlen und Hal- bach. once a close friend of the kais- er, but now a multi-millionaire lead- er in the struggle to secure for Ger- many the industrial leadership of Europe, blacks his own boots in a cominon cell, eight by twelve feet in Qimension, in the Drendorf military prison here.

With three other Krupp directors he now * refuses to accept the privileges of & political prisoner and eats prison stew from a bowl like the German saboteurs and German railway ofi- cizls who refused to obey French prders.

This appeal is expected to be fruit- less and thereafter they will pre- Bumably be transported to a military prison some where in France.

The charge under which Krupp and the other directors were sentenced to iterms in prison of from ten to twenty years was conspiracy to commit acts tendangering the public order under |the French occupation—acts which actually led to the shooting of Krupp workmen by French troops in self defense. Germans generally believe that the baron will be released as soon as the French come to an agreement con- cerning the Ruhr. Meanwhile Krupp tlives under the mitigated regime of |the ordinary jailbird. e SALVATION ARMY. Services will be held at the Salva- | 1lef work.

He will endeavor to arouse the American churches to take definite action in support of the rellef plans of the bureau and incl- dentally will renew the many friendly contacts which he made on his pre- vious visit to this country.

JOIN LEAGUE OF NATIONS; Former Governor of Kansas, Re- plying to London Speech, Sees Time Unripe. By the Associated Press. LONDON, June 2.—Lord Robert Cecil, in the first speech he has made since he became a member of the Dritish cabine¢, last night made an eloquent plea to the United States the English-speaking Union | to join the league of natlons. Henry J. Allen, former Governor of Kansas, who followed Lord Rob- ert, explained some of the reasons why the United States could not join | the league. One of the principal rea- sons, he said, was that the American people had not vet developed an in- ternational mind and still were sus- picious of some of the motives of European countries. The addresses were delivered at a tanquet, which was attended by 400 rrominent Britishers and Americans. Lord Robert Cecll, after declaring he had found widespread sentiment throughout the United States during his recent visit there in favor of the league of nations, said many Ameri- cans doubted the pecific intentions of the European states. He sounded a warning that in many parts of the world warlike ' symptoms were de- veloping, whick were profoundly dis- quieting. P WILL SETTLE GOULD ESTATE.| NEW YORK, June 2.—Returning from France on the liner Berengaria, Mr. and Mrs. Jay Gould and Kingdon Gould said that the body of their father, George J.

They said they returned at this time to arrange for the settleraent of his estate. CENTRAL UNION MISSION. ( Church of Zurich. 'REFORMED| couraged by the generous response met with in Europe in those coun- tries which are in & position to help in the staggerin® task of bringing relief to the stricken areas. Den- mark, Norw Switzerland and Hol- land have come forward in support this centralized movement to grapple with the whole situation, and Sweden, through Archbishop Soeder- blom, has also pledged its ald. The comprehensiveness of the idea under- lying the establishment of this cen- tral relief agency seems to have caught the Imagination of people over there in a very remarkable way. Expressions of good will and offers of practical aid have come from many quarters. Even from some of the suffering churches themselves letters have come promising such materlal help as thelr scanty means may allow In order to succor those in dis- tress still more acute than their own. Well Known Worker. No better man imaginable could have been selected by the executive committee to present its message to the churches of America than Dr. Keller. He was from the very begin- ning one of the moving spirits in out- lining the project of the central bu- reau and has been untiring In his efforts to get it on a working basis. And with all the tremendous amount of work involved in these prelimina- ries he has had to attend to the mul- titudinous details Involved in his pas- torate at the historic old St. Peter's Not only {s he one of the few out- standing leaders of European Protest- antism in a position to see the prob- lems of the evangelical churches as a whole, but he is also one of the few who have a thorough grasp and sym- pathetic understanfiing of our Ameri- can churéhes—thelr history, compo- sitfon, Institutions and peculiar roblems. His book on this subject, Dynamis,” is the first thorough- going presentation of American church life as_seen from the point of view of a European.
