Sunday, pastor of the Good Shepherd Lutheran Church, 4th Ave. and Bay Kidge Parkway. The ser mon was the second of a series of three on the depression and its significance. "We are now entering upon the fourth year of the depression," Dr. Sunday said, "and business end civic leaders are continuing with unabated vigor in their program of charity drives and wage cutting.

With gritting teeth, starving mil lions In a land of plenty are asked to 'see it through." But through to what? "What can possibly be the re sult, even if all the funds asked for are raised, if, at this late date, those unfortunate enough to retain even partical employment have their purchasing power decreased by billions of dollars. The great problem of unemploy ment resulting from prolonged business depression has now as sumed such serious proportions that unless a courageous Congress provides ways and means whereby the slack may be taken up demo cracy, as a political expedient pur posing to serve the greatest good of the greatest number, will tomorrow stand Indicted by a people physically, mentally and spiritually exhausted as a 'noble experiment' and a colossal failure." Lances Trim Colonials, 26-19, in Fast Game The St. Augstinc's Lances registered their eighth victory of the season by defeating the powerful Colonial A. 26 to 19, at the Loughlin Gym Friday. The Lances displayed a fast passing attack throughout the first half and were leading at the intermission, 17 to 7.

Unable to break through the Lances' defense, the Colony House team started taking long heaves and were successful In dropping five baskets from the center of the court. The Colonials, playing topnotch ball, met the Lances at their best in a game that proved to be a real exhibition. George Bishop, Willie Moran and Edward McGovern played well for the Lances, each accounting for six points. The lineup: St. Augustine's Lan'sl- Colonial A.

Dr. Landman Explains Jews' Religions Ideals A God of righteousness who assists man to overcome evil through obedience to the moral law, Is the idea that Judaism promulgates, the Rev. Dr. Isaac Landman said Sunday morning in his sermon the 8th Ave.

Temple, Garfield Place The Jewish religion did not admit of a personal devil who intdgued man to do evil. Dr. Landman added. "Our rabbis have noted that man possesses an inclination to do evil and that from human experience, not from theological speculatiors," he said. "Opposite that inclination they noted a desire for man to act righteously.

"The God of the Jews is imminent. He can be experienced today, even as the prophets and the rabbis of old personally experienced Him. Judaism is opposed to the idea of relentless predestination."

He has been providing food daily to 1,800 persons In the Bath Beach section, for two years, the food being donated by Jewish bakers. The depot at which both food and clothing is given to the poor is donated by the Rev. William Gardiner, pastor of St. Finbar's Roman Catholic Church. Two helpers are employed daily by Mr.

Neiman. and it is wit'i the idea of continuing the wor all Winter that an appeal for funds is being made. Mr. Neiman's workers are at the depot every morning by 7 o'clock to enable scores of children to have breakfast before going to school. Persons desiring to make cash donations, or contribute clothing, are asked to get in touch with Mr.

Neiman at his residence, 1875 Cropsey Ave. Contributions, large or small, will be acceptable, Mr. Neiman declares. treasure. "There are those who declare that contentment Is not a virtue, but an obstacle to human progress.

They talk of a divine discontent and say that we should be ambitious for the best In human life. In a certain sense the criticism is correct. Ambition is the spur that drives us forward, but contentment Is the bit that prevents us from dashing against a stone wall. An automobile needs an engine, but it needs brakes equally. With a fair road ahead we need ambition to spur us on, but in these troublous days the bit of contentment is ever more necessary.

If some of us had been more contented with a humble lot and small profits a few years ago, we would be better off today. "What, then, are the real things of life? Most people would agree that from a material standpoint thev are food, clothing and shel ter. St. Paul mentioned two of them when he said, "Having food and raiment, let us be therewith content." The exact wording of his statement is important. He tells us to be contented if we have food and clothing, but he does not urge us, either as individuals or as a society, to be contented without these things.

All honest workers are entitled to these necessities of life and we should not be contented if they are deprived of them. The tragedy of our present situation is the fact that 12,000,000 men who are anxious to work and secure these necessities are deprived of the privi lege of doing so. In an age of plen- ty, thousands are hungry and mil- I lions are ill-clad. It is evident that'; our economic machine has broken down and needs to repaired. A man is not a radical who recognizes this fact any more than he would be if he came to the conclusion that his car was not Tunning well and took It to the garage for repairs.

Some very conservative and well-balanced people have done that. The depression will teach us the virtue of contentment, and it will also teach us to distinguish between the real things of life and those which are not so important, In the flush days of 1929 we spent a great deal of money for things which were not particularly valu- able and much also for things which were positively harmful. Some of us have learned several important lessons. We have discovered that a happy home is pleas-anter than a night club, and a lec ture is better and cheaper than a vulgar show. We have found that i love is better than luxury and faith- ful affection is more beautiful than diamonds.

We are learning that in- dividual physical development in i a Y. M. C. A. or church gymnasium is more helpful for our health than watching an expensive football game or boxing match.

It Is unfor- i tunate that it took a financial de- pression to teach us this lesson but our money will be well lost if we learn It thoroughly. Better days are coming soon. Let us carry into them 1 the important lesons which we have learned at so great a cost."

The cameo projects a lonely road which leads from Jerusalem to Jericho. Highwaymen fall upon a victim and after robbing him they leave him half dead by the roadside. A priest, a Levite, a Samaritan pass by the former two were preoccupied or too busy to give assistance to the battered victim. Tt was left to the Samaritan to suggest that man made of the dust does at times bear also the image of a God. One of the fine features of the story Is that moment wherein the Samaritan pays the innkeeper for anticipated care tnd then adds words to the effect that If the expense exceeds that which he has already paid, upon his return he will make good.

The major point of the story Is made to revolve around the question asked Jesus by a lawyer who wanted to know "who his neighbor was." Jesus was advising to love one's neighbor and the questioning mind of the attorney brought forth the Master's answer by way of this parable. We have here another instance of the persistency of Jesus in selecting a Samaritan as the hero of the narrative. Although he himself was a Jew he deliberately causes both priest and Levite to "pass by on the other side" and purposely selects a Samaritan (who had no dealings with the Jcwi to do the act of brotherly mercy and kindness. The cameo truly suggests that our human horizons are oft times limited and confined by excessive dogma and ecclesiastical mummery. It would be most difficult to estimate the good which has come directly from this story.

It has enriched character throughout the world, it has caused common shar-lty to erect hospitals for the care of the wounded and bruised in life. It has been a spur to non-sectarian endeavor, it has sent missionary fealots to the ends of the earth In order that they might be of concrete help their neighbor in need. It was a fortunate query that evoked this simple and beautiful ttory from the well-filled fund in the treasury of the mind of Jesus. The visible church which Is the body of Christ has often acted In the role of the Good Samaritan. Its history for night 2,000 years has been punctuated by definite deeds of kindness and mercy.

It is to be regretted that so much of formalism has too often encrusted the more genuine spirit of the Galilean. There are. however, many brilliant spots which fully typify the spirit of Christ within the portals of the Church. This cameo is one which becomes property by common right. The value of the lesson is that even the poorest may achieve distinction by giving "a cup of cold water to a thirsty one." "The great need of our country at the present time is a development of the virtue of contentment." the Rev.

Herbert J. Hinman. pastor of the Mapleton Park Congregational Church, 18th Ave. and 65th said Sunday morning during his sermon. "We have fallen upon evil times." he continued, "and we may meet them either with a spirit of sullen resentment or one of happy content.

Resentment will not help our situation and will bring us only misery, while contentment will give us a happy heart and the ful and Announce Train Change The Brighton line on Sundays and -holidays will operate via Manhattan Bridge instead of the Montague St. funnel. The Brighton line trains will use the express tracks in the Broadway subway in Manhattan, between Canal St. and Times Square, under the new arrangement, but will continue to use the local tracks in Brooklyn as on Sundays and holidays in the past. This change in service is made because traffic checks show that more than 75 percent of the passengers on Brighton line trains arriving at De Kalb Ave.
