tauqua, Saturday morning. His sub-

ject was the "Minister in Ulvic Affairs."

After telling of the circumstances which led to his acceptance of the office of mayor of Pontiac. Mich., Dr. Bready called attention to the place of the church in the community. "I believe that the church should provide young people with all amusements that they need. If there is any amusement that the church shouM , not provide, then the young people should not have it. "We are largely a set of negationists. Unless we have something better to offer, we should not take away that which exists. I predict that five years from now we will no more think of running a live church without a motion picture machine than with out the organ." Show Clean Pictures. Dr. Bready explained that his church was equipped with a pictuta machine and that the people of the , church knew they were safe in sending their children to his picture entertainments, because they knew the pictures would be clean. " 'Be not overcome with evil, but

overcome evil with good.' Without invoking civil law I have done more to bring about good pictures in Pontiac than if I had preached against them for ten years. Sunday moving pic ture men damn me for my Sunday a!-, ternoon entertainments." Warning against becoming intemperate in the desire to see pictures was sounded by Dr. Bready. "Thert is the danger of getting the picture bug'," he said. I think going every day is intemperate and harmful. I advocate once a week." ' No Admission Charged. No admission is charged at bis picture shows, according to Dr. Bready. He said that it was a mistake to charge admission. To make it possible for poor ones to come as well a the more fortunate. Dr. Bready -said that he had a box where coins of any denomination could be dropped and a ticket would be given the contributor. The Sunday afternoon entertaini ments in the church in Which Dr.

Bready is pastor, are held late in the afternoon and following the event announcement is made of lunch served at the chunrch at cost. He said thai then many stayed for church services in the evening, after enjoying a pleasant afternoon. In this way, he explained that he took care of th; lonely, and those who would have to spend the day in one room, or at a doubtful Sunday movie.

It has been announced that a petition signed by about 200 members of the local church has been sent to the conference bishop, urging that the Rev. James be returned to Richmond. A report also states that bids for the services of the Rev. James have been made by several churches in the district. The Rev. James enjoys the distinction of being one of the oldest pastors in point of service in the White River conference. He was ordained in 188.and has been preaching within th limits of the conference every year since. Word from the conference indicates that few changes will be mad in appointments for the year, which gives promise of the continued service of the Rev. James in Richmond.
