THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, RICHMOND, IND., WEDNESDAY, DEC. 7, 1921.

BIBLE SCHOOL TALKS BY FURDY AND BIRCH WILL CLOSE TONIGHT

Final session of the Community School cf Religious Education will be held in the high school auditorium Wednesday evening at 7:30 o'clock. Tho meeting will mark the close of a very- successful term under the direction of E. Harrison Scott, president of the Richmond City Sunday School association. The second term of the school will open in January. Professor Alexander C. Purdy. of Karlham college, and Professor T. Bruce Kirch, of Wittenberg college, Springfield. O , will deliver the final lectures of the term. Prof Birch will speak on "Aim of Moral and Religious Education." Prof. Purdy will give the first address on "The Great Prophet of the Eighth and Seventh Centuries." The substance of his talk will be as follows : "The eighth and seventh centuries mark the turning point of Hebrew history. During these two centuries the glorious state which David and Solomon created was wrecked, but out of that wreckage emerged a world of religion which has changed the course of all subsequent history in the western world. "The men who laid the foundations for this world religion were despised and rejected of men but today we understand what they achieved. One of the most intersting developments of modern biblical study is the discovery of the social message of Elijah. Amos, Hosea, Jeremiah. Isaiah and Micah. . Each one of these ancient prophets has a living message for modern time, which no intelligent student can afford to neglect."
