IS THE INTEREST IN THE BIBLE INSTITUTE AT EARLHAM COLLEGE SEVERAL LECTURES Are Delivered by Prominent Church Workers Tomorrow Will be Last Day. The morning session opened at 9 o'clock by singAig, "I Will Tellrhe Wondrous Story" after which prayer was offered by Jas. R. Jones. Prof. Albert Russell then gave the fourth of his lectures on the Life of Christ; The. Public Ministry of Chrust. Prof. Russell said the beginning of Christ's ministry began with the calling of the four desciples and continued to grow. From among all these, -after a night of prayer he selected twelve of these desciples for special Avork. These are known as Apostles. These were divided into four groups. Peter was spokesman and leader of the twelve Apostles. Judas was treasurer of the company and it is more than probable that he expected to become first Lord of the treasury when Jesus set up his earthly kingdom and when he found that Jesus was not going to set up this earthly kingdom he decided to sell out as dearly as poss'fole. Jesus' work may be summed up as thorough organization and definite work. Jesus did not despise the hired ministry for he said, "The laborer is worthy of his hire." Jesus reached the clAnax of his popularity when the multitude offered him the crown. After this his public ministry began to wane and the Pharisees were determined to kill him. Only as long as he was able to keep from the Pharisees was he able to continue his preaching. At th'fa time most of the populace and his desciples had fallen away from Him. Jesu? now returned, to the Galilean country, commenced His healings. Later he embarked and erossed Galilee to the south shore and while here he probably made his journey to Jerusalem. It was here at Jerusalem that he healed the blind man;. He was attacked for working on Sunday and defended his action on the grounds that God works on the Sabbath. He called the attention of the Jews to the fact that they performed the operation circumcision on the Sabbath. Here Jesus saw that the Jews had forsaken him. Jesus and his desciples now erossed the lake of Galilee to the north and while on this trip warned the desciples against the Pharisees. Jesus now moved on into the territory of Philip and here he seems to first realize that llh work would only end with his death. 4 Havinb become assured of faithfulness of His desciples he now told them that he must go up to Jerusalem and be rejected and that He must die and after three days rise again. His desciples were now prepared. They could not conceive of a Messiah that must die but a triumphal one. They could conceive of an earthly Messiah who would wfci His people by love. Jesus hoped that he might be spared the pain of being rejected by his people and that they should be spared the sin of rejecting Him. For a week Jesusc ontinued to impress His disciples of His death.. But they did not seem tound erstand the resurection having an idea that Jesus would come on the great resurrection day. Jesus now took three of His discipes and went up on Mt. Hemon. They spent the night there and returned the following day. Jesus charging the disciples not to disclose the visions seen there. The time of feasts had now arrived and at first Jesus decided not to go up to the feast, but after the disciples had 4 gone He decided that He must go as it was God's will. So He suddenly went up to the temple and thought. During this ministry Jesus had spent a large portion of His me in the preparation of His disciples. His work was now done. The session of the institute opened by singing one verse of "There is Sunshine in My Soul.' Graham Taylor of Chicago was then introduced and spoke on "The Industrial Crisis of Christianity. 9 1 Mr. Taylor said : "This morning I want to draw a dark

INC1A

back ground for the brighter picture of'this evening to show the crisis that Christianity is being subjected to today. I take it we are all Christians, and today we are apt to say everything is well; but it takes a stronger man to face these crises and see them as they are. I hardly know how to interpret these conditions but I am not here to offer any excuse for the conditions they exist but to give you a first hand observation and canst' .von to think of the necessity of a solution for this problem. At the time Christian?.' took to rebirth in the reformation times an economical crisis existed between the classes and the masses. During the peasant insurection no anarchial flag was borne but instead one bearing an inscription "We demand nothing but the rights of God." There is a parallel existing between these ecclesiastical and economical developments textile and weaving industries Avere developed until the status of the laboring class was entirely changed. The working class was caught up by a cyclone and huddled into the factories. Children were pressed into service and compelled to work sixteen and eighteen hours a day. The pity of all this is that the new Angelical church did not respond to the cry of the helpless. But these conditions are not found wanting today. Parliamentary investigation showed the fact that one thiid 0 fthe Scotch school children' are under fed and not fit for military service Christianity intensified these economic crisis. All these peasants asked was the privileges of a man, and in fact all our laboring classes ask today is the same thing; that I may have a home, that my children may go to school. Monday Afternoon. The first afternoon session opened at 2 p. m. with a vocal solo by Mrs. Whitley. Miss Emma Townsend Spencer who was to lecture on the Book of Romans not being present, Prof. Russell occupied the hour. The entire session was given over to the answering of questions. It was very interesting and instructing. The second afternoon session commenced, at 3 p. m. President Robert L. Kelly delivered a lecture on "The Friends' Bible School." He said I wisTi as a Friend we might have a Bible school a -little in advance of any at the present time. All the things that I say may not be practicable to put Aato all of your schools at the present time. It is time that we should improve our Bible schools. The Friends have been a people of educational activity and the Bible school has been one of the principal schools of the Friends. These schools have placed the Friends in a more than average knowledge of the Bible. :l ' The time has come when we must make an advance in our Bible schools. The time is ripe to make this systematic advancement and we have not done this. We might accomplish this by a systematic regulation of these schools. Lack of discipline and inferior teachings are among the drawbacks to our Bible school. Construction of Friends churches is such as to hinder Bible study. As a people we have neglected art, but our children are not. They are getting this in the day school. How they might drink this teaching if the instinct of art were only developed. We are not giving as much attention as we ought to our Bible school teachers. Such men as Starbuek are writing a number of books on th'h subject of child development. We recognize there are three stages in our lives. The childhood that of youth, a period of doubts and then the adult life. Our present idea of uniform lessons for all ages are something that are holding back our best advancement. I plead for graded lessons. For a course of study that will meet the religious crisis of all ages in our lives. Monday Evening. At 7:15 p. m. the usual Vesper service "was held. At S p. m. the meeting was opened by prayer vby Charles Whitely. Graham Taylor then spoke on "Social Work'of English Friends." He said: "About twenty years ago a small pamphlet was issued from White Chapel, entitled 'The Bitter Cry of Outcast London. ' This pamphlet was issued by. the missionary society. Mr. Booth of the London Steamship company took notice of this pamphlet. He devoted a great deaf of time and money to the collection of data on the subject and after sifting this material he and Mrs. Booth wrote seventeen volumes in twenty years, at an expense of $250,000 or $300,000. This in an illustration of the citizenship. When we will have a citizenship as this? Mr. Booth has set a new standard in investigation, in classifiAfy;n and in summary. At one home whre 1 stopped in "England 25,000 unpriv

ileged people enjoyed the home every

summer. At Burnville whertvthc Cad-

bury shops are located about' 22,000 people are employed. Here everything necessary to happiness was present, beautiful cottages, flowers, swimming pools and lunch rooms. No profit is taken from the village to the treasury of the concern but turned into the village treasury. It seemed that this was impossible after leaving the busy strot of ClA-ago. What a blessed thiny: if more of our manufacturers would seek this kind of relation with their workmen. Thousands of English working men every Sunday morning in Birminshain may be seen studying the Bible. These adult schools are the greatest social movements i.i England ami are the work of Friends. Mr. Cadbury bought the London News and since his ownership he would not allow anything to be printed that could be bet on. Mr. Carbury is a great man. At York Mr. Koundtree has found the same thing; that it pays to invest in humanity in industry as has Mr. Cadbury. Al these places show the Aiterest of the employer for the employed. The Friends' Meeting House in England are combinations of ecclesiastical and domestic house. While there are many nice cathedrals for domestic benefits, give me a Quaker meeting house. While at Toledo, I visAed (he works of Mr. Jones. There in passing through his shops' I saw a sign reading: "Do unto others as Ye would that they would unto you." This man was elected as mayor of Toledo four times in spite of the saloons and the other opposing forces. When this large-hearted man died a few weeks ago there was a demonstration such as has not been seen since the funeral of Lincoln. While probably one of the most misrepresented men in Toledo, nevertheless he had won the hearts of the working man. Tuesday Morning. The regular meeting for worship held at 8 a. m. At 0 o'clock a. m. the meeting was opened by a vocal solo by Miss Leora Bogue. Professor Russell then gave his fifth lecture on the "Life of Christ," the subject being, "Last of Jesus' Public Ministry in Jerusalem and Perica." Professor Russell said Jesus returned from 'Jerusalem in October after the feast of Tabernacles. Jesus now bade goodbye to Galilee and prepared to do his work speedily in Perivca. After the death of Lazarus Jesus left for Bethany and was met by Martha. Here He made a public thanksgiving and called Lazarus from the grave after four days. Many of the -Jews now believed in Jesus and many went to see Lazarus. Self interest now compelled the hierarchy to stop Jesus.. Jesus now retired to a secluded city and remained uptil about the Passover. Jackson Park. Concerts will only be given at Jackson Park in the future oh special dates and as advertised. The park pavilion, however, will be open daily for visitors and picnic parties. The grounds will at all times be thoroughly policed and lighted and good order will be maintained. No charge whatever will be made for,the grounds or buildings and all are welcome. RICHMOND STREET & INTER URBAN RAILWAY CO. DEATHS AND FUNERALS. Smithmeyer Philomena E.
