Plans for the erection in the Na- tional Capital of a representative Church of the Disciples of Christ will be announced at the close of the morning service tomorrow at the Ver- mont Avenue Christian Church by the pastor, Rev. Dr. Earle Wilfley. The site for the proposed church, which has a been acquired, is at the northwest corner of Fourteenth street and M husetts avenue, fac- ing Thomas Circle. For the past 16 years Rev. Dr. Wilfley has endeavored 1o interest the local as well as other members of the denomination, in all parts of the country, in the propost- tion to erect a representative church here. Indorsed by Many. As a number of denominations have or are contemplating the erection of representative churches in the N: tional Capital, Dr. Wilfley felt the Dt ciples of Christ also ought to be rep- resented. This proposal was indorsed inisters’ Associa- hington and vicinity, by ples” Union and then by the Christian Missionary Soclety of land, Delaware and the District Three of the interna- tional conventions also approved the idea. A building committee, composed of five men, was selected, and they se- cured the site for the church. The new church will grow from the present Vermont Avenue Church, on Yer treet. where for n s Rev.

TODAY'S TEXT There is a crying for wine in the streets.—Isaiah, zxiv.I1. BY HUBERT (. HERRING, Noted Liveral Writer, Lecturer. Preacher. This was written before the days of | Mr. Volstead | The prophet was listing some of the things which were about to happen. | Among other things there would be no wine. This wine busi- ness has caused a good deal of argu- ment, first” and | last. | There has been a lot of futile propaganda about it. Those who want their wine have found their reasons. A good many of their rea- sons have not been very good. They have bol- stered themselves up with much pseudo-science. They have fixed facts and figures to suit themselves. On the other hand, the pleaders for prohibition have been guilty of the same sort of tactics. Some “dry” or- ganizations have won for themselves rm of well merited criticism. Many of their leaders have been dis- credited, and their facts brought under suspicion. It is high time that the whole ques- tion be lifted above the level of the opposing propagandists. The world is v of the propagandist. ‘hen the ~eighteenth amendment was ratified America undertook one of the most courageous and audacious experiments ever undertaken by the State. That amendment represented the conviction of the rank and flle of the citizenship of America that the traffic in alcoholic beverages was an economic and moral liability. They voted for that amendment because they believed that the saloon was allied with the worst in politics, and that this alliance was undermining American life. They believed that the use of alcohol was physically harm- ful, and socially suicidal. The success of that experiment is not yvet clear. The results are cer- tainly not as good as the prohibition- ists hoped; nor as bad as the profes- sional wets prophesied. There are bad results. There is widespread disregard for the law. A vicious circle of bribery and corruption and lying surrounds citizen and police, courts and juries, shipping interests and dealers. America faces an intol- erable situation. There are good results. No matter how wet certain cities may be, large sections of America are dry. The clos- | ing of the saloon has made drink less ace ible. The figures of delin- quency and crime directly attribu- table to drink show some improve- ment. In the meantime, there is a crying for wine in the streets. That proves nothing, one way or the other. Peo- ple of every age have always been cry- ing for something to which they had no right, DR. HERRIN/ e— “HIDDEN BEATITUDES.” Dr. Pierce Announces Series of Four Sermons. Rev. Dr. Ulysses G. B.

Prophecy has| well been called “the mold of his- tory.” God gave to His prophets insight concerning coming events. The prophecies, therefore, of God's true spokesmen have ever been the “mold” into which unfolding history has been poured.

It is a by-product of duty done, and its fullest blessings come only to those who serve. There is a “crying for wine in the streets” of our modern life, and no answer comes save the mocking echo of our cry!

The forerunners of the wonderful Maya civilization in Central America have been discovered. FEarthquakes, which long ago shook Guatemala, may enable archeologists to trace Amer- ican history back many thousands of years, and thus a new era ripe for archeological research will be re- vealed. Such are the probable results of a three months’ reconnoissance survey of unknown Guatemala just com- pleted by Dr. Manuel Gamio, leading Mexican archeologist, working under the auspices of the Archaeological So- ciety of Washington. Dr. Gamio is now on his way to Washington, where he will study the material he has col-{ lected and will prepare a scientific report of his exploration trip. The survey was for the purpose of | determining whether Gwatemala is a promising field for pre-Maya explora- tions. The first reports confirm the conjecture that the Guatemalan high- lands would yield evidence of an- clent human occupancy, dating back to long before the time of Christ. Fragments Are Found. ‘What happened in the central region of America before the rise of the Maya, the Toltecs and the Aztecs is literally “‘pre-histol From time to time clay and stone fragments of great antiquity have been found in Central America, but archeologists have vaguely termed them as ‘‘Ar- chaic,” which means only that belong to an age and a people that distinctly preceded the Maya. In a report to the Washington so- clety, Dr. Gamio states that he has made several trial excavations, dig- ging through seven strata of deposited soil, each layer being about 20 inches thick. In these deposits he found numerous fragments of pottery and clay sculptures. Many of these are of the Archaic type. There are a few va finds. Also, some of the pottery signs of a gradual transition to the ceramic style of the Maya, indicating that the two types may have blended or that one developed | into the other. Geography, and earthquakes in particular, are helping in this tracing of early Mayan history. Exploring this unsettled region, Dr. Gamio has found evidence that “the Maya, able constructors of lofty and complicated edifices, did not, if one may judge from appearances, build anything in the high zones affected by earth- quakes. They confined themselves to the lower and above all to tHe coastal regions, where shocks were not ex- perienced. Quakes Play Big Part. Buildings of the Maya remain standing in Guatemala today. Dr. Gamio suggests that probably these careful builders profited by the earth- quake experiences of the earlier and more primitive people, because the makers of the archaic pottery had established their settlements with careless disregard of earthquake zomes. It is not yet determined, however, whether these early inhabitants built such simple homes that they did not fear the rocking of houses and the falling of walls, or whether there were fewer earthquakes in that part of the world then. The part played by earthquakes in the wanderings of these prehistoric American tribes is being closely studied by Dr. Gamio, who says that earthquakes have had a marked in- {I‘\rxence on the development of human e.

DRYISUE STUDY URGEDON WONEN Cannot Ignore Agitation \for Change in Volstead Act, Says lllinois Leader. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, June 5.—Women cannot ignore the fact that there is a nation- wide demand for modification of the Volstead act, declared Mrs. A. E. Berglund of Galva, IlL, vesterday in addressing the Democratic women's State committee, of which she is presi- dent. “They must face the issue square- ly,” she sald. “The attack, ostensibly at least, i{s directed against the Vol- stead act and not the eighteenth amendment. “The Volstead act specifies that no liquor containing more than one-half of one per cent of alcohol shall be inanufactured or sold. This provision as to alcoholic content is, of course, arbitrary, and it is strenuously denied that it is based upon scientific fact. It is probably true that a higher per cent of alcohol in liquor may be al- lowed without making it intoxicating and without violating the eighteenth amendment. It is contended that each State should be permitted to control its own liquor traffic, within the lim- its of the eighteenth amendment. “Whether modification of the Vol- stead act would operate as an_enter- ing wedge eventually to bring about a repeal of the eighteenth amendment must be seriously considered. It can- not be denied that the Volstead act has less public sentiment to support it than any other law on the statute books. That is why the law is being violated more than any other law. Continued violation without punish- ment breeds disrespect for law and disrespect for law breeds anarchy.” STERLING EXPLORERS LEAVE FOR BATAVIA New Guinea Party Will Conduct Airplane Scouting Over Un- known Territory. ¢ By the Associated Press. WELTEVREDEN, Java. June 5.— A wireless dispatch from the pioneer camp of the Sterling expedition to New Guinea has reported that most of the members of the exploring party have left for Batavia in two motor boats and 10 native canoes. Prof. Mathew Y. Sterling of Berkeley, Calif., and Dr. Leroux, Dutch carto- grapher, will remain for a fortnight in one”of the native villages making extensive investigations. One of the chief purposes of the expedition is to study the natives of New Guinea, especially the pygmies who are known to live there. Dr. R. S. Van Leeuwen, chief of the Dutch members of the expedition, has returned to the pioneer camp after a week’'s trip along the Van Gelder river. It is expected that he will soon ectablish a camp at the head - of the river, where he will make explorations with the ex- pedition’s airplane. Later he will pick up Prof. Sterling and Dr.- Leroux. He has sufficient supplies for two months’ work. The plane already has made several successful trips over hitherto unex- plored territory. The wireless ap- paratus with the expedition is reported to be functioning perfectly. DR. LAMBETH HONORED. Mt. Vernon Pastor to Give Alumni Address at Duke University. Rev. Dr. W. A.

Two Ancient Autos Burned to Test Fire Resistance of Metal Garages At the sacrificé of two ancient auto- mobiles and the interior furnishings of an all-metal garage, the Bureau of Standards has demonstrated that metal garages if properly braced can be placed as close as three feet to wooden buildings or other structures. Bureau sclentists, seeking to ascer- tain the exact limit of fire danger from conflagrations in metal garages, Thursday night set fire to two old au- tomobiles in an all-metal garage at the bureau. Around the walls of the ga- rage they placed wooden frameworks representing the walls of a building. As the fire progressed the nearest frame work 38 feet from the exterior of the garage smoldered and burst into flames which were easily extinguished with water. The tem- perature in the garage rose to 700 degrees centigrade and everything in the structure was reduced to junk. Although the tanks of the two au- tomobiles were half full of gasoline no_explosion took place, and bureau scientists said this would probably be typlcal of any similar fire. When the mass of metal cooled yesterday, it was found that an aluminum crank case on one of the cars had melted down to a puddle, all the glass was melted and everything incinerated but the cast metal forming {7‘1‘1’ engAne and body of the automobiles. n- other coat of paint will make the garage as good as new. and BY REV. HUGH T. STEVENSON. JACOB AND ESAU—Gen. 25:19- 34; 26:34.28:9; 32:3-33:17. Golden Text: Be ye kind one -to another, tender hearted, for- giving each other, even as God also in Christ forgave you.— Eph. 4:32. No dramatist has succeeded in pre- senting the fundamental principles of peace in a more striking way than we find them recorded in the lessn. The 20 years that intervened between last Sunday's study of Jacob at Bethel and the incidents in today’s lesson, were spent by Jacob with his uncle Laban and his cousins. During that period he reaped what he sowed. The decelver learned that he could not es- cape from his past. In a continuous life of trickery, persecution, scheming and selfish policy he finally outwitted Laban, and under the command of God, started the second migration from Mesopotamia. He had entered the land with only a staff in his hand, but he had grown through the years to be a wealthy cattle owner and had obtained one more wife than he de- sired. When he reached the country of his brother, whom he had wronged, Jacob faced the possible punishment for his sins. He had not thought much _about them during his sojourn with Laban, but now they filled him with fear. Whenever ne had thought of his trickery and deception, he had pushed it to one side, but now he could not do it. The hot pursuit of Laban and the peace made through divine interposition served to fill him with concern. He was not a_coward | but he realized that night that every- thing he held dear to him—his fam- ily’s safety, his dependent’s security, the fruits of his 20 years’ toil, were im- periled. He was alone when in the solitude of the night, he was brought, through wrestling with God, to recog- nize his unworthiness and selfiish- ness. It was when he entered the valley of tbe shadow, recognizing how | (e} OF the destiny of the tribes depended upon him and his duty to them, that he came into his privileged birthright as the high priest. Clinging to the unknown wrestler, who had given him the blessing, Jacob was given a new name because he was a new man. He had met God face to face and hence- forth would be known as Israel, for as a prince he had won out in a con- test with Jehovah. That wrestling prepared him for fraternal reconcilia- tion with Esau, whom he had wronged. Fraternal Reconciliation. The limping Jacob had been pre- pared by that night's contest with God to attempt a reconciliation with his brother. Esau was approaching with his army of 400 ready to get even with the one who had wronged him. He did not know of the change in his brother, who approached him in a spirit of confidence in God's power to protect him and all who were dear to him. The persevering, penitent, praying Jacob had marshaled his forces in a truely Oriental manner, He assembled in the reverse order of his affection for them with a view of saving the dearest among them from any avenging spirit of Esau. je found it easier to go over ahead of them and bow down before his brother because he had tried to get right with God. The one who seeks to secure a fraternal reconciliation will do well to first get right with God. The will to have peace is Europe’s greatest need at this moment. Esau was impressed by the evident changed attitude of Jacob. He ob- served the kindly spirit in his reply to his question,” “Who are these?”, when he pointed to the long family line. The reply of Jaccb that they were “The children which God hath graciously given to thy servant,” and the assurance that the great and val- uable presents, which he had sent ahead, were for Esau, helped to melt his heart. The honor given him by his brother and the members of his family served to remove his animosity that had developed during his absence until he could not continue to hold any revenge in his heart for the one who had tremblingly bowed down be- fore him and acknowled Esau to be his lord. He ran “to meet him, em- braced him and fell upon his neck and klerl;d him.” e reconciliation was complete. Esau proved that he was generous by refusing the gifts, just as Roose- velt demonstrated to China by declin- ing the indemnity due us on account of the Boxer trouble that we were friendly to China. The Chinese stu- dents, who have been educated every year in America by the Chinese gov- ernment’s using of the interest of that fund, have Shown that the will to be friendly will find a response in the heart of a nation as well as in that of a man. Although Psau desired to refuse taking any gifts, the diplomatic insistance of Jacob succeeded in pre- vailing upon him to accept the same. By so\doing the fratérnal reconcilia- tion developed into a family recogni- tion. E Family Recognition. 'he moment that Jacob recognized that he had succeeded in overcoming his brother’s anger, his joy appeared to know no limit. He flattered Esau by saying that “I have seen thy face as one seeth the face of God, and thou wast pleased with me Looking ‘back upon the experience of the pre- ceding night, Jacob, who had not yet attained the title of Israel, saw in the gracious acceptance of his gifts by Esau, the evidence of God’s bless- ing resting upon him. He had been selfish and he sought now to rise above the spirit of selfishness by a generous consideration of Esau, whom he had wronged. He had learned that he could not live with God and be indif- ferent to his brethren. One must prove their profession.of religion by a life that recogpizes one's duty to ot?arl.h 5 n the joy of the family recogni- tion and fraternal recom:fll.l}l,lon. Eg‘:x proposed that they should journey on together. Jacob with true oriental diplomacy declined because. it would gg lll(np:)csrl}(bla for thwe“d;::lgren and his ocks eep up e forces of Esau. Having won his brother’s love cceeded ten for the responsibil maintaining his independence by de- clining the offer of protection made & Esau. With the parung of the brothers, the end of difference bet them had come. The scripture lent concerning any future troubl Esau went his way to Seir and Jacob journeyed on to Succoth, where he took up his residence. His experience testifies to the power of love, justice and good will to establish order and remove discord among men and na: tions. The peace of the world will be cured if men will remember the of love. *Thou shalt love the L thy God, with all thine heart’—thi the firs and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, “Thou shalt love they neighbor as thyself.” Love conquered Esau, who retired to make room for Jacob. He left for him the land of his inheritance and disappeared forever. In setiling this family difference, the spirit of God was revealed. He changed the sup- planter into the gemerous loving brother, who conquered Esau by his changed character. Before the na- tions of the earth shall become the nation of our Christ they must be- come nations of love in place of tions of hate.
