Rev. DR.. Lucas had q congregation yea
terday which not only filled the pews but
the aisles. showing how much in need of
the new church ediiice the Central Chris
tiGn society is. DR.. Lucas preached n SER
mon en- the text: "Glory 70 God In the
highest, on earth peace. good Will to
men," He said that there was DC nation
or school of philosophy that could pro-
mulgate such truth. That was evidence of
its divine origin. Even the Hebrew peo-
pie. which knew more of God than any
other nationality. was not prepared to
proclaim good will TO men. He took the
broad ground that all human civilization
that accorded to all men their rights was
due to the light and iniluence of the gospel
of Christ-that it was the spirit and power
of this gospel which would bring peace
and good will to the earth. Without 1T
there can be no civilization and progress
based on human love. 1t was this light
from above that was to bring the world to
the highest civilization. He spoke of the
tens Of thousands Of congregations who.
under one name or another. and in
varied forms, were at that hour
w0rshiping In the name OF Christ. and was
very fervent III his expressions of good
Will to all those who. in their worship.

preached peace on earth and good will to
men. He spoke of the meeting of the lead
ing representatives of all religious beliefs

over the influence of such an assemblaRe.
