SPORTS IN CHURCH.

Rev. Milton r. Kerr. pastor of the
Congregational church at Westville. a
suburb of New Haven. Conn. is at
tracing wide attention by his unique
methods Of drawing to his church
those who otherwise would spend their
leisure amid less elevating influences.
BY many the methods OF the pastor
are warmly supported; by others they
are heartily condemned. A peculiar
feature in the situation Is the fact tnat
the opposition comes largely from
members Of the church who are not
blessed with an abundance OF this
worlds goods. while the most hearty
commendation comes from the
wealthy. a class the methods of which
meet with Mr.. Kerr's most severe de-
nunciation. The poor members are
afraid Mr. Kerr will drive from the
church the necessary support OF the
rich, while the wealthy members seem

Hardly anything else has happened in

strate how far removed from compre-
hension of truth is the preeent-day mind.
You can never do" as Jesus did" for
you'll never be placed anything ap-

There never be any comparison as
regards doing The thing is ito be-
as Christ was and is--to be or to become
Christlike.
In whatever environment you are paced
this is possible. In whatever environ

Sibhe. The mind of man must turn from
the outside of life and its .'doings'' to the
inner side of life and Its being" Doing
takes care of itself when being is cor
rected. So, writes an emphatic contrib
utor to the New York Sun. let those peo-
pie. well intentioned- no doubt. but dull
of understanding turn their gaze from
the outLsde world with Its fieeting con-
ditions to look upon their own souls
their own motives. their own qualities
Let them face themselves squarely. hon-
estly. unfiinchinely. and question them
selves sterny. nakedly face to face.
Am l gentle and kind every ainute
OF every day?"
Am l absolutely genuine. or is .here
a bit of hypocrisy lurking somewhere
about me?"

attend with as strict attention to correc-
ton of his own he does to the cor

one should but start out TO become all
he ought TO be. who can doubt what this
earth lie would become? But while each
one who desires to help stretches out
long arm and reaches way over his
shortcomings to make good those OF other
people. there is not much hope for this
poor old world.
Good morning. doctor" said a min

Yes very returned the doctor
That's good. That's good" said the

We'll. I don't know" replied the doc
tor. You know live by the sufferings

"oh, well, we'll. You must not mind
that" continued the minister "You

pae.''
