COLLEGE
MAN AND
THE CHURCH
President Fauncs Delivers the
Second In Series Of Lectures
on This Topic 10 Students.

President Faunce OF Brown University
the series, The college man and the
church" His particular subject last night
was "rhe Attractions of the Church"
and the large number OF students present
followed his words with great interest
He said in part. The church began as
a small group or twelve young men,
bound together by common loyalty
faith and hope. The church was neces-
sary 10 them and it Is necessary now 10
men that believe in Christ, Such men are
bound to unite, for an isolated Christian
is a failure.
The college man must notice the debt
that civilization owes TO the church. The
church tanned the barbarians and pre-
served civilization during the dark ages.
IL means more TO the United States than
all the police, for III the churches should
be withdrawn crime would be unrestrain-
ed. Without the church to teach right
eousness the one city OF New York would
become so wicked that all the regiments
in the country could not control IT,
"As n benevolent institution the church
advances civilization. helping the unfortu-
nate and needy. AS an educational force
the church has been very powerful II has
preserved the Bible and tho literature OF
Greece and Rome Here I'm New England
the church has founded nearly all the coll
leges. Harvard. Yale. Brown. williams.
Amherst. Dartmouth. Wesleyan. and all
the others would never have existed N Il
were not for the influence OF the church.
The practical man OF today wants 20
know what this organization can do for
him IN the first place. the church offers
fellowship through one may achieve his
highest self. In spiritual fellowship a
man gets desires and ideals that he could
never get In the solitude OF his room
yet a man says. There are things in
the church that 7 can't believe That II
no objection al all. There are some things
We DO not like IN the best books. or IN our
particular political party In the church
the man ought 90 take what will most
nourish his life. and be thankful 10 have
no rich an opportunity.
The men wha have problems that they
cannot settle say that they cannot take
interest IN the church until they have de-
cided their problems guarantee that
unless your intellect goes 20 sleep YOU
viii always have problems They mean
that YOU are intellectually alive. The the
