RELIGION TOPIC SERMON SUNDAY TO SENIOR CLASS Dr. J. H. Thayer Delivers j 1926 Baccalaureate Ser-i moil al Blackwell Memor-1 ial Baptist Church j ALL MEN RELIGIOUS Speaker Urges Upon Young People Personal and Definite Experience L; in Order to Find Peace ^ '"Then |a no more absorbing! topic than thai of religion," de clared Dr. J. H. Thayer. Sunday] morning, in addreaaing the gradu ating class of the Elisabeth City i High School aa be preached the | baccalaureate sermon at Black-' well Memorial Baptist Church. I ".There have been many defini- I tloni of religion," coutinued Dr. Thayer, "but for our purpose this, morning we shall define it as that| relation which man bears to the Eternal. In this general sense all : men have been or are religious. I The aavage in his jungle aa ho I bowa before his fetish. BuddhH. ! seeking to lose himself In the In finite, Mohammed with his wild 1 dreams of a sensual heaven. The highest a* woll as the lowest have I been religious. In that they have conceived of themselves as bear- ; ing a very real relation to that j Infinite presence which abides be- . yond the stars. * "There can be no doubt at all ' but that men differ in their apti tude for religion. In a way some men are Just naturally more re ligious than othera. They have a keener sense of the Infinite. They feel his presence to be near, their eara are not so dulled, nor their eyes so dimmed, but what they can apprehend him more than others. As with men. so also with nations. The Hebrews were mas ters in religion. Kome may have 1 given to us law, Greece the sens? ( of order and beauty ? but the He brew handed to the race the Man- | ter Religion. ?'Practically every book in that .:Jqine we call the Bible came i a Hebrew hand. Nor did the ' W^tfrcw mind conceive religion as fioen the Western. Tho tragedy Is J that we law-loving and law-wor shlpplng Westerners should read Into the Bible a different mode of thinking. The Hebrew saw God In everything. Tha thunder was His voice, the lightning His thun derbolt. He set each planet In the heavens, and upholds them by his hand. Between the Hebrew and His Cod there Intervened no secondary causes. Whst Western ers call the reign of law, Hebrews called the reign of God. "Now this race produced one master thinker ? one specialist In . religion. This inan was Saul of Taraua, mighty thinker and writ- 1 ?y. The last of all, the great Jew- , Mh rabbi and the first of all Chris- 1 tlan salnta. Fingering through 1 hla books we come to one which Is among the last. He la an old man now. A chain fastens Jilm to a Roman soldier. He has Just now faced Nero, the Roman lion. Most of hla friends have gone back on him. H4 la writing to a young preacher, and he sums up his re ligion thus: 'I know whom I have believed.' Religion for him Is an I experience. "Yes, from his pen have come the greatest doctrinal books that Christendom knows, but religion Is not a doctrine. Truo. he had fought for orthodoxy with tho Gnostic and the Judalser of his I day ? but religion for him is not a freed nor a sectarian shibboleth. Both are alright In their place. Both once were and ought always j . to-be the expreaslon of a real vital ] Mkprrlence In the life of an Indi vidual or a people. But now, fac- : Ing his foes who are relentlessly | hounding him to his death, and looking upwsrd toward the heav- ! ens and expecting sny moment to, be again once more face to fare with the Chrlat whom he had met | on Damascus rosd, he ssys 'I know I whom I have believed.' "Religion then becomes a per- 1 sonal experience. Note In this verse the pronouns. The 'whom,' i the 'him,' the 'he,' the 'I.' Surely . there could be no clesrer Indica tion that resl religion Is s person-1 si experience. It Is not something I that can be hsd by proxy. Neither, fsther nor mother can pses It on I to you. Nor can you In turn be- i quest h M to your dasrest frtend. As Indeed It Is only your own eyes j that can see the Isndsrspe for you,' so It Is only your own soul that ' can reach out for tha eternal. "And this Is a personal relation- 1 ship with snothar person It Is Indeed difficult to Imagine any real religion when the Infinite la. merely conceived of as a force, sn ' Impersonal something. But when that Infinite becomes peraonsl. when He further clothes himself In flesh In the Person of Jesus Chrlat. then my religion becomes my personsi relationship with thst greater and other Person, , God, In Chrlat Jesus Then the : Incarnation become* for me a llv- 1 ijkg truth, for I begin to realise # my life what thla man so fdlly realised In hla: 'For me to live la UJhrlst.' "Rabbi Rnelow has said: 'Reli gion Is real only wfcsn expressed | through a parson.' And just as Co?t|Qisd o* fsfV 4 Is This? It is a rail feno*. It Irta good tllitiK we have rail fences.

Motorist Arrested As First Victim Of Parking Law | After nineteen days of "gracc." jtho new parking ordinance affect ing Main Btreet residents, and pro ductive of considerable dissatisfac tion on the part of many of them, was put to the test this morning [when Leslie SheriodV, employed at the Auto & Gas Engine Works, was haled before Trial Justice Sawyer In recorder's court on a | charge of having parked on the 'south side of the street, between ! Road street and the alley besid" [the home of F. M. Grlce, Sr.. the j day before: He waa let off upon {payment of the costs. The ordinance, as it stands af ter having been amended slightly, prohibits parking on the south side of the street, as designated above, and bans all parks on West Main from the intersection of IDyer to the city limits. It permits oblique parking on the south side t of the street from the Grlce al ley eastward, and parallel parking on the north side of the street op posite the Southern Hotel block only. Mr. Sherlock was the first mo torlst to be arrested under the new ordinance, the Council hav ing displayed a disposition to be a little chafy of enforcing It dur ing the first couple of weeks after It was passed. Chief of Police 'Holmes gave warning through the j columns of The Dally Advance I Saturday that it would be en-, forced from then on. I While on the stand today, Mr. Sherlock stated he didn't know of the passage of the ordinance, and hadn't noticed the "no parking" signs in the proscribed area In which he had left his car until af jter pollen had tagged It.

SECOND STREET RESIDENTS SORE AT CITY'S JOKE Fail lo Appreciate Humor of Giving Them Nicelj Cravelrd Thoroughfare, uiid Then Tearing ll l'i? FKHKBEK EXPLAINS Recent Survey Di?do*cd i Nccw*ily for lnstaRitus Stonu Drains, Accortlinp j. to City Manager i Ifc-Hident* o f Second street are much put out over recent develop ments Incident to the' street im ' provement progrim which in now being carried Into effect. About a month ago. Second 1 street wa?| Riven ItH^ilrat coating I of a clay-gravel mixture. The aur I facing was spread carefully, and | rolled nicely, and for the first ? time In history, the folks on the street had something approximat ing a hardsurfaced thoroughfare. The street was left to settle, as a preliminary to the final top sur j facing. 1 Then, a fow days ago. disaster il befell Second street . A second survey by city onglneers disclosed I that It was needful that a atorm drain be run down the street, i from Cypress to Broad. In order I to carry off the excess water. This I had not been contemplated when ! the gravel was put down. City 1 Manager Fere bee explains. The I sewer contractors proceeded to cut a trench right through the pretty I gravel ? and now Second street Is ! worse off. from the standpoint of travel, than It has been in many moona. At least. It la In worse condition than It haa been since ! the winter rains ceaaed. Mr. Ferebee declare? that when the gravel was put down, nobody had any Idea that Second atreet would have to be torn up again. He adds that, while the preaent condition Is of aerloua Inconven ience to people on the atreet. the tearlng-up of the gravel will mean .no additional burden to the tna i payer*, since R. O. Laaalter & Company, the contractors laying Ithe atorm drains, have bargained to put them In at a definite prlne. land It Is up to them to restore tlio ! gravel to the condition In which {they found It. without additional ? expense to the city. Thus It Is that while Second street folks are temporarily the sufftrers by a regrettable Incident, they are little or no wors?- off than I people In virtually every other part of town, who havo been in convenienced similarly by the re ! cent wholesale Installation of pip ing ? though, of course, the others 'haven't been kidded, In a way. by having their streets put Into ap j plerple order and then promptly itorn up.

There has been, how-' ever, a steady, healthy, wonder- ; ful growth here In the laat few years.

It may be late, but not too lato to . waken to the possibilities that arc patent to those who have grown with the city. Readjustment of 'thought and the creation of faith may be difficult, but true ambition lo catch up and keep up will se cure the attainment." "One of the first qualification necessary for growth with the city is the knowledge of Its growth. It may grow all around jroa. Invis ible. for you are not a&flctly a part of It.

Al though there have been no e0h spicuoua evidences an yet of the growing hostility between the members of the Republican party In the Senate and President Cool idge, the cloak room atmoepbete , Ih none too friendly to the WbHe House. Ttie feeling Is due to A number of unrelated causes and : while It may be a passing mood there is no escaping the faet that It exists. When Democratic Senatore a few days ago began to express to cynical terms their viewpolai oa I the Pennsylvania primary elec tion. taunting the Coolidge admin istration for Its failure to per suade a Republican State to re nominate Senator Pepper, there were encouraging remarks omftbe side which indicated clearly that several Republicans were not at all displeased with the attack. To noine extent the antl*Cop|?

Albte and again one hears RepubilfM Senators say that an attitude of political selfishness will In the end work to the disadvantage of any one who adopts such a pol icy. They Insist that politics la a give aud taka matter and that the I very healtancy which Mr. CoolMfi > has shown toward the exteaelpb of direct help to those who hap# assisted him In C emgreaa will cause seetlonsllsm to thrive Inside the party. They also declare that the chsnces of winning more aeate In Congress will cause sectional ism to thrive inside the party. Tlx y also declare that the chaaeet of winning more seat a In CongrdM will be impaired If Mr. CoolttM does not take an active part- III the campaign. llut while the desire for Presi dential help is apparent In th? po litical discussions at the capttol, oup must look deeper than this to find out Just what the anti-Cool* idge movement Is based upoa. The truth In the 1928 Presidential campaign has already begun. There are various candldatee In side the Senate as well as a nuin-j her of active managers outside tha Senate all of whom realise that they must depress the Coolidge stock before thprp Is a chance for any of their favorites. They aro by no mesns united and they have no particular flaw to find In tha legislative policies of Mr. Cool* Idge. with the possible exception of course, of farm relief. It la tee early to forecaat whether the cafe* dldates from the Western <tat#a can develop anti-Coolldge saa&fc ment Inside the Republican party because of Mr. Coolldge's unwlU5* I nune?a to go along with the We?> ern Republicans on the Haugea bill, to which the Presldeat ob jected because of Its price MM f seta res.

For U Is customary In politics to begin ths pledging of delegstes s year or more ahead of s nominating con vention. If delegates were to lit* sought tomorrow Mr. Coolidge would Aad real opposition among the Re publicans of various ststee who have accumulated grievances, not the least of which are the com plaints that he has not "playe* ball" with the Republican Organ ization Senators. .1 Khm III N ( urn* HIOUOIVB WITH KAHMT MVAP ItKAS* Negroes continue to take laur els for early vegetables.
