the life of the individual it was

great value to all who abhor hypericy and any of the smug illiusioiwith which men are wont to deluithemselves. As an evidence of tlfact that there are no denominatioal barriers to tho spread of tltruth, it was of great and timevalue to the thinking ChristiansTryon; great because of its simpllIty; timely because it pointed 01

the folly of maintaining or tryiito maintain many poorly attend*and poorly supported places of wo

ship when a few well attended ai

well financed churches could sen

the church-going pubHc with greser efficiency.For three successive Sundays tl

pulpit of the Ersklne MemoriChurch has been filled by mlnlsteiof different denominations, oneCongregationalism one a Presbyterisand last, a Methodist Each hibrought a forceful, hopeful, ai

therefore helpful messdge to pepie who gratefully received it. Eathas we trust brought nearer the d?when in towns of the size of Trycthere shall be but two Btroichurches, one with and one withoi& ritual, both ministering effective'to a untied people now divided tlines of denominational prejudlciwhich hamper instead of helping tlspread of Christian influence.Next Sunday, Dr. Lewis Kelle

President of the Atlanta Theolofcal Seminary will preach at the Cogrational Church. Those who' knoDr. Keller predict that his sermc

will maintain the high standardexcellence which has marked thoiof his predecessors.The work of securing a permanei

pastor for the Erskine MemoriChurch is progressing rapidly.
