stouffville ont boadways drug store drcg store to see ourselves as others see us was the experience of a christian congregation of stoullville which assembled in the auditorium of the united church on monday evening to hear kabbi eisendrath of holy blossom synagogue toronto give an address on the subject were i a christian in his opening remarks the rabbi said his listeners might with some justification challenge him for speaking on this subject rather than on judiasm or something more familiar to him familiarity he said oft times breeds contempt and ho illustrated this by telling of the man and wife who go down throught the years together becoming accustomed to the changes in each other so that they are all unconscious of them but to one who had not ome into contact with them for years the change is all too apparent some times we see things from the out side that those on the inside fail to observe the chief points in the address was the attempt of the speaker to show the utter disparity between the practices of the socalled christian nations and the teachings of the man of nazareth as they related to his nonmilaristic life and the brother- liood of man and this he accomp lished in an able address of some 45 minutes duratiqn if i were a christian i fear i could not be a member of any nation requiring me to shed blood in defence of my country or in otlier words requiring me to be a killer the rabbi jesus was a pacifist and the commandment thou shalt not kill would prevent me from being a killer the rabbi cited three cases where persons were refused citizen ship in the socalled christian nation to the south of us which is also his native country because they refused to promise to kill in defence of that nation if need arose h chall enge any man to say that jesus would have had anything to do with that last great awful carnage and bloody slaughter in europe nor would he have been found in the front line trenches if the ethics pr jesus be complete as the way of life for all people then nations must cease their furious preparation for war if the christian nations were really following him the great london peace conference with its bickerings wpujd have np place he stated if i were a christian i do not think i could be a conscientious citi zen of any natlo that engages men in their laboratories seeking out means that will snuff out the lives of nations and peoples he declared that efforts are being supported and discoveries made by scientists to put up all manner of beastly germs such as those of scarlet fever whooping cough and scourges of many kind these the scientist is putting away in flny test tubs so that when the time comes they may le distributed from aeroplanes over enemy lands into wells etc he referred to the blasphemy of prayers such as the one written by mark twain and ijttered froni the lips qf preacher prlesf and rabbi for the destruction of the enemy uttered to thoprince of peace if i were a christian i would stand oncp and for al for lie renunciation of everything that stood for bloodshed the speaker j said it was evident from the words of jesus that not all things belonged to god when he said render unto caesar it i were a christian i would strive to be a man loyal not to one nation but to all peoples of the earth to think of a society which calls itself christian permitting men to tramp tjie streets in want living under conditions such as exist in our cities as a christian he would strive for a little more equality in the worlds goods and equality of men christ said as ye have done it unto tlio least of these my brethren ye have done it unto me ho cited a caso where a negro was refused admittance to a recltnl because of his color and that negro happened to be a composer of one of the numbers on the program finally the rabbi if a christian would end once and for all time this dljcrlniinajiiijr aguinsj tiie peppe who gave him his religion as christians we might fall on our knees and say glory to god for the people who gave us our religion if ho wcro a christian he would not tolerate the jew he would understand him he would love him i would extend him a welcome ho declared and heye ho referred to the bad condi tions in which somq of the chosen race arc forced to livo under before i sought to convert thc jew i wpujd go into tyall street the wealthy sections of our cities our palaces and would seek to convert a young man just out from den mark on the third of april robbed his first employer cecil latcham of the 3rd concession of uxbridge and made a successful escape with fifteen dollars in cash and some small arti cles last sunday night the money was taken from mrs latchams purse mr and mrs latcham were ab sent from home during the evening leaving their new man to look after the place but on their return at 10 oclock they discovered the young dane had packed his trunk and car ried it on his back to claremont some hours before he shipped the trunk to toronto but left the station and has not been seen since police hope to effect his arrest when he ultimately calls for his trunk at the nation in toronto the new comer had only a small grasp of the english language and this will make it extra hard for him to carry on in the manner he has set it is likely that he will be de ported when caught although up to wednesday afternoon he was still at large the easter visitor

2000 sergt kirk was instantly killed sergt thos kirk of newmarket the oflicial board of the stouff ville united church at a largely at tended meeting last week extended a call to rev thos laidlaw of owen sound to become pastor of this church this invitation or call is subject to the approval of the con gregation which is summoned to meet this wednesday night to ap prove or rejetet the action of the board with the consent of the congre gation in the choice of a new mini ster made by their officials there is still another obstacle in the way of this call being acted on in the uni que manner in which the united church exchanges ministers it is necessary that the resident pastor be acceptable to the congregation at owen sound in order to make the exchange but in this instance there is little likelihood of this proving any difficulty as rev h s warren is said to be practically certain of a call to the northern city from information gathered from officials the tribune is assured that there is nothing in the way of the call going through and that after june rev thos laidlaw will be the resident minister at one time he was pastor on the epsomutica circuit of the former aiethodist church and later ministered at aurora while in owen sound he has been chairman of the gray presby tery and has been in his present charge for five years in finally making the call to mr laidlaw the stouffville church will be stepping this charge up to a 2000 one for that is the salary to bo attached as air laidlaw is drawing this amount at present air warren likewise will be stepping up from s1s0o with a free parsonage to 2000 this wednesdays meotlng to be held in the church at 8 oclock is likely to be interesting as there are some opposed to the higher salary it is said that quite a following favor extending a call to rov mr wlte of belleville who is willing to accept the 1800 salary attached to this charge the obstacle in the way here is that rev h s warren is not keen on
