: THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, SATURDAY, JULY 28, 1923. SEK FUD TO SNV Foundarions of ol aid, HOLY LAND SHRINES Committee Named to Run Financial Drive in United States. Election of an axecutive committes to take charge f preserving the sacred pla of the Holy Land has been announced from the headquar- ters of the American Committes on Preservation of the Sacred Places In the Holy Land, New York city. The committee is composed of Rt. Rev. Willlam T. Manning, Bishop of the Eplscopal Dioocese of New York, and Rev. Charles 8. Macfarland, gen- » eral secretary of the Federal Councll, chairmen; Prof. Charles H. Boynton, secretary; Rev. Thomas Burgess, Rev. W.'C. Emhardt, Robert H. Gardi- per. C. V. Hibbard, Rev. Georse R. Montgomery, Fred B. Smith, Rev. Stanley Whlle‘ Rev. Frank Mason North, cott Willlams, Robert P. Wllder. Mrl E, Cotton, Rav B Allen Bartholomew, D.” D. Chamberlain, Rev. Frederick Fn‘(lcv. Rawlings and Rev. Herbert L. Willett. Holy Places ia Danger. The purpose for which the Ameri- can committee was formed preservation of the sacred the Holy Land, lncludlnl‘ sucl as Bethlehem, Nazareth, the Garden . of Gethsemane, the Mount of Olives and the Holy Sepulchre. The danger which ~threatens these places is a direct result of the war and lh~ e Rus- sfan revolution. The sacred places have been main- tained for centuries by the Patriarch of Jerusalem, with the Brotherhood of the Holy Sepulchre, of which he is the head. ~The financlal support for this venerable institution has come largely from Russia; in fact, in 1914, it was estimated that no less than 64 per cent of the total revenue of the patriarchate came from Russian sources. Mortgage on Land. With the failure of that support, the patriarchate was forced to go into ‘debt to carry on its essential work. The debt constitutes a mort- gage on the only land remaining and it the loans are called, this land will have to be sacrificed. Just now & moratorium prevents the calling of the loans, but this expires in the near future. The affairs of the patriarchate are now administered by 2 commission appointed by the British mandate government of Palestine. The head of the commission s expected to land in this vountry within a few da s to confer with the American comm tee on the extent to which America will aid the fund to pay off the debt. According to members of the com- mittee, this is the only way to assure the preservation of the eacred places for, as it stands now, the entire in- come of the patriarchate Is used up n running expenses and interest charges. Once the debt Is raised, those in close touch with the situa- tion point out, the income will be sufficlent to maintain and care for the shrines, DR. WILFLEY TO SPEAK.

' No blare of trumpets marked the completion of the foundation, according to the Church Militant, official publication of the Episcopal Church of the Dio- cese of Washington. No special serv- ices called attention to a big job well done. Washington slumbered on in the valley unconscious of the qulet rejolcing of the bullders on Cathedral Hill that a rock of ages was set deep in the ground on which would rest forever a witness to God, & witness that would rise like & hand on the horizon In answer to the prayers of & people. The foun n job is done. It was not laid like !olomon ‘Temple. The rock was poured. Sixteen thoun.nd cubie Jarde of concrete were mixed un- derground and poured into form ‘he lumber— clrlolfll of {t—was put up and taken down. The solid rock remains. Nine million pounds of oe t. 10,000 tons of sand and 1'.000 tons of gravel make up that rock. Three Burial Vaults. A oasual observer might see in the foundation only a mass of concrete, but underneath is a labyrinth of passages and rooms as Interesting as ny of Pharaoh’s tombs. Three 'burlll vaults are placed in different arts of the underground structure. eating rooms, heat pas: , store- rooms, electric rooms and krooms are hidden in the concrete. Beth! hem Chapel in the crypt is an ex- ample of what can be done under the floor of the main cathedral in an | architectural way. In 1912 the nru building_operation for the Cathedral of St. Peter and 8t. Paul started and the cathedral apse is the result. This architec- tural detail is In itself enough to bring visitors from all parts of the world to enjoy its beauty. Photog- raphers have spent days and nights in an effort to catch the spirit of the cathedral as reflected In the frag- ment that has been erected. Foundation Operation. It was not until ten years later that the foundation operation was begun. On March 28, 1922, three steam shovels started excavation In four and a nalt months they had removed 50,000 cuble of ‘earth. After ffteen months of ateady work the job is done even to covering the concrete with a water- proofing of alternate lawyers of three coats of asphalt and two applicatio: | of fabric. "It is bullt for the ages. Now the builders are working on the choir. Fifty-four thousand feet of limestone are being quarried and milled at Bedford, Ind., and shipped to is ston Every plece 1- inspected, and any . imperfection means rejection. ‘When the choir is completed the hovl to start the bullding e t_of the cathedral in one operatipn.

Some d y the story of the crafts- men at work on the cathedral will be told and there will be revealed a spirit of workmanship, a lesson of reverence and a picture of devotion to an ideal that will both inspire and humble the rést of us, no matter what our contribution to the job of cathedral bulding may be. Story of Workmen. The workmen's story will tell how the workmen have bought the fll't that fly at the peak of the apse, an American flag for workdays, & church flag for Sundays, flags that last a month and then are in tatters be- cause of the heavy winds. The story will tell of the electric erected last Christmas, symbol over the Bet!

There are those who do :’ fully | appreciate the privilege that® wash- ingtonians have of viewing the prog- ress of the cathedral bulldll\t - saw it bullding” will be a statement bringing great satisfaction to an in- dividual ten years hence. The Bible contains more references to the build- ing of Solomon's Temple than to the view of the completed structure or the services held therein. The Amer- ican people will have centuries in which to admire the completed struc- ture but only a brief span of time to revel in the hufldlnr of the National Cathedral. The bullding operation is truly one of the great sights of the National Capital. Washingtonians do not fully appreciate it. Sometimes it seems as though more interest is dl;]lyfi in the Natlonal Cathedral at unt St. Alban by peo- ple of other countries than by Ameri- cans. The Canon of Canterbury, Dr. Bickersteth, who delivered the ser- mon at the apen-air services at the cathedral on July 1, is one of those who has told us how magnificent the cathedral and its site are. A feeling is rising that it is time to tell the world about the National Cathedral instead of having all the telling done by visitors to this shrine. Sunday School Lesson BY REV. HUGH T. STEVENSON. Matthew the Publican—Mat- thew ix. 9-13; Luke v. 27-32. Golden Text—I am not come to oall the righteous but sin- ners—Luke v. 32. Matthew glves us in two words the key. to his life. The other writers overlooked his past, but when the author of the opening book of the New Testament starts to write his narrative of the life of Jesus Christ there is the evidence that he looks upon his conversion as the most important event In his life. Luke refers to him as Levi, but Matthew tells us that Jesus met him when he was “sitting at the seat of cus- tom.” He was a publican. The fact that Matthew was a pub- lican indicates all that we know of the man before Christ called him to be associated with Him. He belong- ed to the most hated class in all Palostine. Romans was despised by tho Jews. whose concoption of their rights as the chosen people, to whom God had given the Holy Land, made it diffi- cult for them to pay the taxes to the publicans, who were the grafters of that age. His work called him to_be hard, greedy, extortionate, oppressive tax collector; a man who coined gold from widows' tears and orphans’ hunger, the farmers’ harvests in half, a man who balked the merchant of his | Wwere publicans and sinners. Jesus had a reputation for “dining out.” He was welcome guest at any table. ‘The Pharisees noted his presence at the banquet where apostates and men who failed to comply with the relig- ious rexulremenu of the temple were grouped at the table with the Master. Jesus heard them ask why He ate with publicans and sinners. Matthew caught his reply. It thrilled him. He liked the way Jesus took up his de- fense. “Théy that are whole have no need of a physician, but they that are slek.” He forgot the balance, but some one has well said that the balance of His defense can be found in Luke's parables of the lost. The opening of the fifteenth chapter tells how all “the publicans and sinners grew near unto Him for to hear Christ won Matthew for a higher task that day. It meant something for the tax collector to leave his busi- ness, fortune and family to follow Jesus. It meant more for him to re- veal to the Pharisees the independ- ence that he did by calling Matthew. One of the sources of the bitter ho: tility exhibited by the religious lead- The tax collector for the!ers was due to the fact that the Mas- ter would open the door of thesking- dom to these despised members of so- ciety. These men, who were ostracized and considered outcasts, were, in many cases, men of ability and train- ing. The men, whom Matthew en- tertained, and whom Jesus addressed, belonged to that class of wealthy in- dividuals whose resources had “the strange power of materializing, nar- a man who cut!rowing and hardening their souls.” This makes it difficult even today for a rich man to enter heaven, but Christ profits—the bain of industry, the!never despaired of the possibility of thief of prosperity, the mildew of trade.” The Spollsman Saved. Matthew's nationalism was so weak that he became a spoilsman, [ renegade and apostate. He forgot the ‘teachings, traditions and train- of \is ancestors about God. He ing placed his desire for gold ahead of his country’s claims and religlous ohllgluon& This proves that Levi, conversion after his cAlled Matthew, 1 sparently was ‘without principle, pl’... and purpose of life. He had not found himself or learnod that God had a plan for him. His position as the collector of customs, near Capernaum on the way of commerce between Da- s ‘and the Mediterranean, gave im, oppoTtunity to hear of the won- derful work of Jesus. The whole city and section was excited by his originality, personality, power as | healer and preacher. The antagon- ism of the leaders to Christ would find_a welcome from Matthew for the brilliant minister, who attracted a_ ocongregation wherever he went. The rublican was startled ,and sur- prired to have Jesus stop at the cus- tom’s office and show a personal in- terest in him by inviting him to fol- low him. It marked the beginning of a new career to Matthew, whose memory of it is given auite fully in the gospel which bears his name. Matthew evidently was not satis- T3z fied with being welcomed into the | gev, soclety of Jesus. He made a feast and invited all of his frlendl. who CENTRAL UNION MISSION.

Matthew belonged to this class when he arose up and fol- lowed Christ. Dr. Whyte has well said that when the publican responded to the Mas- ter's call to follow Jesus “the only things he took with him out of his old occupation were his pen and ink.” After the feast that he gave in honor of the Master we never hear of him again, but the infleunce of his pen in the gospel, which he was influenced and inspired to write, has made him one of the greatest benefactors of humanity. In writing the gospel Matthew re- veals the traces of his business 5 EPISCOPAL. CHRIST CHURCH 20 G 1795, REY. WILLIAM ¢ SumIy wmfl. Rector. SUMMER SERVICES: il AML The Rev.

He sought to present to his countrymen-in his bio- graph of Jesus the fact that He was “the Christ of Israel—born king of the Jew! He proved that he was a mast of the LOld Testament. Scriptures, which he quotes to prove sus in His ministry did what "that it might be fulfilled spoken.” Matthews days spent in the presence b of Jesus had resulted in a complete moral and spiritual revolution. He had been despised because he was not patriotic and indifferent to the faith, teachings and traditions of his countrymen. His gospel sounds the note of loyal patriotism and the most intense interest in the religious re- quirements and prophecies of his ancestors’ faith. Judalsm helped him to understand Christianity, which had been cradled In its laj d he found in the words and works of the Lord a constant reminder of the prophets of the Old Testament. Matthe€w’s respect for the traditions of the past does not degenerate, into dogmatism and ceremonialigm. This has made it eminently proper that his gospel, which is_thoroughly Jew- ish, should be the first book of the New Testament, making, as it_does, a connection with the Old Testa- ment. He showed commercial skill and literary abllity in the way he grouped his material in a peculiar order, that must have filled him with joy as he recalled the days spent with the Lord in Galilee and about Caper- naum, where he first met Him face to face and answered His call to become an apostle. We owe to Matthew’ memory, observation, reflection, rev- erence and research more than to any other apostle the preservation in fullest forms of the words and s ings of Jesus, especially those that “present Him in the character of the great prophet. who, like the prophets of old time, denounces national sins, and predicts the future of the nation and the church. Instances of this characteristic are the full report of the Sermon on the Mount in thre chapters; the charge to the apostl in chapter X; the great series of prophetic parables in chaper XIII, pe- culiar to this gospel; the denunciation of the scribes and pharasees in chap- ter XXIII; the prediction of the fall of Jerusalem and the parables of the second advent in chapters XXIV and His life reveals the transforming power of the Lord Jesus as much as did that of Peter and John. While he did not attain to the heights of leadership that these men won, Mat- thew in his quiet business method of service tried to cooperate with all who loved the Lord. His scholarly and spiritual presentation of Christ as the Messlah earned for his gospel lh. appropriate and honorable place the first book of the New Testa- ment.. His life teaches us the vatue of being associated with the great cause of Christ. It encourages us to look in the most unexpected and de- spised places ‘to win recruits for Christ’'s cause.
