passed but God was all the time in the still small voice. MethOdiSm had no new doctrine to propound. The teach ing of Arminius was already two hung dred years old. The doctIinal basis of Methodism has never been in any theory of inspiration, or philosophy of. atonement, but in the living personality of Christ. We are not peculiar in the form of worship From the Church of England we brought our ritual for the sacraments, marriage and burials. To this we add the less formal services of prayer, praise and class meetings The real genius of Methodism is to be found in the text of Jesse Lees first sermon in New Haven: Thus saith the Lord unto the house of Israel, seek ye Me, and ye shall live.' A message and life A message of power, it's proof, it's demonstration was sought in the life to be lived It was a message to the individual. It came at time when individualism was being felt through out the world of thought and politics. It made it's appeal direct to the indi- vidual. Out of this grew the life of the individual. The rights, responsbil- ities and possibilities of individual life
 
 better men and women, and therefore better citizens
 If we look back upon our history in New Haven it is the way ot faith. and if we project our history into the com ing century with any force it will re- quire another step of faith. There was a time when this First church had to be rescued by the benevolence of brethren abroad. Now our neighboring churches, or children and grandchildren are appealing to us to rescue them. If we glory in our own grandparents the church of the early days, we ought not to repudiate our children and grand children. We cannot throw the respon- [ sibility upon the past Dare we repu- | diate it? We are one church, branch | ing into ten.
 We stand in this effort of lifting the | debts from the New Haven Methodist l churches, where our fathers have stood ' before They met the crisis because they were heroes. Can we be less and ever before "The way of duty is the path to glory"
 Cherishing then the vitality born of the noble faith and an honored past, we look out into the coming century and behold the vision that greeted the sghtless eyes of Romney Leigh Faint and far along the tinglng desert of

SERMON BY DR. GILBERT
ON THE "DEMANDS OF THE GOTH
 CENTURY ON THE CHURCH.D
Sermon Mostly Addressed to Methodists -Spcaker Refers to the Rise and Pros- perity of Methodism- Urges the Need of City EvangeIization.

At the Trinity Methodist Episcopal church yesterday morning Dr. Levi Gill bert preached on the Demands of the Twentieth Century on the Church" The sermon, based on the thank offer
 ings of the Jews, Chron. 29-S1-33, was mostly addressed to the Methodist de- nomination. Dr. Gilbert spoke, in part, as follows;
 God has wonderfully prospered our church. From a membership of 61,000 in 1900 it has risen to one of 2,250, ,000 with 23000 churches It is not an occa- sion for boastfulness, but for deepened sense of responsibility. Shall the only celebration of nineteen centuries of Christian history be material exhibit in the worlds gayest capital? Shall there not be a thank offering on the of the past and the vast possibilities of the future. There must be consecra-
 
 bishops have issued a call for twenty millions of dollars, over and above the the usual benevolent contributions, for educational, philanthropic and religious objects. It is a large sum but not too large in a day of great projects-not too large for two and a quarter million people to raise. Once they might have been poor, but not now. The history of the church in education has been a worthy one, but all the seminares, universities and theological schools need larger endowments, They ,an absorb all the $100O0, 900 apportioned them. We have not done our full duty to hospitals and orphanages and homes for the aged. It is the glory of the Roman Catholic church and the Eps- copal that they have done so much and we must emulate their zeal The cause 1f city evangelization is a crying one Il our great centers. Our superanu- | lted ministers need a great fund to | keep them from suffering.
 The church debts aggregate twelve | million, with an annual interest of | ,500,0 900. Our local church Indebtedness | s $75, GOO, with $2,6o0 interest, We must rise, under the banner of the | Twentieth Century Wesleyan league | and wipe out this indebtedness within | he next year The payment of so much | interest is large waste. Every ten l years a respectable church could be

built with the sums so spent We must pay our debts. The man or the church that fails, that repudiates, is discredited. Ministerial agencies are deflected from evangelical to financial plans. The people get discouraged. The debt is an incubus, an old man of the sea- on them. The revival power of the church is hampered The growth in membership is retarded. Some are driven out.
 We must pay or lose our buildings To lose would be disgrace to our en- tire Methodism here and elsewhere. To fail is to work injustice to our creditors No excuse will avail. We must pay. There is no option. We have not too many churches. They are eligibly To- cated They arc not too expensvely built They will become strong organi- cations with the growth of the city. The campaign must be pushed. We must make 1t the chief thing and hear a good deal about it for some months. We must pay it ourselves. Very little help will come from without. We have assurances of large amounts in the fu- ture from heavy givers.
 But HledHW ulle we Ndil o tHousenhu members of the league at $10 share a general participation. It should be privilege and glory. It would be mean, unjust, unchristian to shoulder it all onto the wealthy. There must be pro- portionate giving all around.
 We owe a duty to our brethren of the imperilled churches. It would be base to desert them. They are doing all they can-they are not paupers nor shirks Perhaps we have not done all for them in the past we should or they would not now be so burdened. It may take much self-sacrifice, but it is worth it. Such crisis do not occur in a life- time.
 By this manifestation of brotherly help the churches are being brought nearer to each other and great spiritual benefits are resulting. The debt can not be raised mechanically-there is need of much prayer and cqnsecration. There is a call also for two million converts in the next three years. Whether there shall be such vast in- gathering or not let us do all we can to get as many converted as possible for the glory of Christ.

THEIR DUTY TO METHODISM
SERMON TO THE FIRST TMETHODIST
 CHURCH CONGREGATION.
Preached Yesterday Morning by Rev. Gardner EIdridge-The Rise of the Denominations in New Havcn-Debt Should he Lifted from Local Sister Churches

A large congregation listened to a sermon in the First M. E. church yes terday in which Rev. MT. Eldridge impressed upon the members of the mother church the duty they owe to Methodism and themselves in assisting the Twentieth Century league to pay Methodist churches in the city, amount ing to s7OOO0. Below is synopsis of the sermon.
 Text, Luke IT, 20: "rhe kingdom of God cometh not with observation"
 A hundred and ten years ago when our city was scarcely more than a hamlet, there appeared one day man at the village tavern, who announced that he would preach the following Sunday in the state house. That man was Jesse Lee, the forerunner of Methodism in New Haven. His work was followed by travelling preachers from Middletown holding the services in private houses At the end of six years there were five members, A few years after they purchased a small meeting house for ninety dollars, where they worshipped for ten years. Then they built a little church on Temple street. At the end of twenty-five years there were siXty-six members. Five years after this the membership was pruned down to thirty-six. These were not the days of such sweeping progress as we sometimes imagine.
 Several years after the erection of the church on the green membership of 800 was reported. All this time the work had been done through the me- dum of one church and now the church branched out; the city grew; the churches multiplied Forty years ago there was a membership af 1500, and 1000 scholars and teachers in the Sunday schools. To-day the officially reported membership of New Haven Methodism is $500, and 310O teachers and scholars in the Sunday school. We have briefly traced this historic setting of the coming of Methodism, not for the sake of the history but for the pur- pose of studying the genius of the church to which we belong.
 Methodism has often been character ized, ignorantly characterized. by the eccentricities of it's early days. The demonstrativeness of those days was natural. It would be as unnatural for us, as it was natural for them. The fire the earthquake, the whirlwind J
