Mohammedanism Was Topic at Cen- tral Blp!llt Church, There was a large attendance at the Sunday evening service at the Central Baptist chur(“l, which was conducted by the B. P. U, one of the promi- nent societies of the church. The or- der of service included special ad- resses and a chorus of 32 voices led the singing. The opening hymn was Halil to the Brightness, and this was followed by a missionary chant. The address of welcome was delivered by Henry A. Covey, president of the B. Y. P. U., and the scripture selection was read by ‘Walter N. Block. The Banner of the Cross was rendered by the chorus and Rev. Joel B. Slocum, D. D., the pastor, offered prayer. After the ofler(ory the chorus was again heard in the singing of The Fight is On. The topic of the evening was Mo- hammedanism and the introduction was given by Miss Ethel P. Adams. In her address Miss Adams said it is not necessary to call attention to the eco- nomic, social and educational develop- ment of the native races of South Africa, which development has ad- vanced steadily through the past two or three generations. In no period has the progress been more marked. The transformmtions which have taken place in the upper Nile region of the Sudan within the last five years con- stitute one of the most encouraging examples of progress to be found in any part of the non-Christian world. The second address was Mohammed- the back and | B anism in Africa and was delivered by Percy A. Billings. Mr. Billings said that two forces are contending for Africa—Christianity and Mohammed- gnism. In many respects the more ag- gressive is Mohammedanism. The ab- sorption of native races into Islam is proceeding rapidly and continuously in practically all parts of the continent. ‘Wherever a Mohammedan penetrates, he makes converts to Islam. Pagan- ism is doomed, animistic faiths crum- bRe quickly before any higher and more dogmatic religion. Either Chris- tianity or Islam will prevail through- out Africa, and Islam is pushing hard to_win the pagan states and peoples. Richard W. Arnold made the final address, his topic being Results in Central Africa. Mr. Arnold told of the explorations in Central Africa in the past generation and of the develop- ment of that part of the world which is coming into the light of civilization. He told of the railway construction, the excellent roads that have been bulit, the 5,000 miles of telegraph lines now in operation and the great in- crease in the mafl service. After Mr. Arnold’s address the chor- us rendlered Stand Up, Stand Up for Jesus, and Dr. Slocum made a brief address. The closing hymn was Ger- trude. Nex Sunday evening Master e mot63.

Cuny at St. Patrick’s Church Gives First in Series of Ser- mons on This Theme. The first sermon in a serfes on Mat- rimony was given in St. Patrick’s church Sunday at the high mass by Rev. Peter J. Cuny. The catechism defines matrimony as the union of a Catholic man and Catholic woman in Christian wedlock. God _instituted matrimony in the Garden of Eden; and in Genesis its purpose is expressed: “Increase and muitiply and fill the earth, and subdue it.” Matrimony was advanced by Christ to the dignity of a sacrament. As such it is held by the Catholic church, which rules that every marriage con- tract, to be valid, must be made in the presence of the parish priest, or one delegated by him, and in the presence of two witnesses. The state, too, imposes regulations in the matter of marriage, such as the necessity of a license, etc., and in this consideration of marriage as a con- tract and the obligations which it im- poses, the church agrees with the state. Marriage and the assumption of its divinely instituted responsibilities is enjoined by the Catholic church; yet, the preacher sald, many non-Catholics inquire frequently, Why is it that Catholic priests, who advise marriage for their people, themselves do not marry? - This question he answered in three ways: First, the number of priests is a very small minority among the mil- lions constituting the Catholic church; secondly, this is a free country and of their own free will priests choose celi- bacy; third, the Catholic church has found that her priests can do better work when not hampered by family cares. ‘The preacher touched upon the mod- ern evils referred to variously as race suicide, birth control and the like, by which, in many marriages, the purpose of matrimony is defeated and which are merely new names for an old sin, the perpetrator of which, as scripture records, was slain by God for his abominations. As the original race -of New England is dying out, through this shirking of family responsibilities, so, he predicted, must the English-speak- ing members of the parish die out, leaving to others who live in accord ‘with nature’s laws the beaatiful church edifice, built by their fathers, Who had faith in God and in His sacraments— including the sacrament of matrimony —unless modern evils and tendencies be corrected.
