RoosEVELT's GOOD WISHES.
Message to Presbyterian Assembly
Address by Commissioner Macfarland.

President Roosevelt sent a message to the
Presbyterian general assembly at Winona
Lake. Ind, last night through President
Mcfarland of the Board of COMMISSIONERS
OF the District of Columbia, who read the
message at popular meeting for laymen.
The President expressed the hope that the
day would soon come when all branches of
the Presbyterian Church would be united
into one great body, and the assembly gave
IT'S approval in prolonged applause.
Commissioner Macfarland characterized
President Roosevelt as 1.-The foremost lay
man in the United States,' who as an ex-
emplar and preached of Righteousness and
the attention not only of the country but
of the world and was benefiting all man
kind.
In his address Mr.. Macfarland said that
this was the age Of the layman. While
the clergy were never more necessary or
personally If not officially more influential,
while the minister with the message would
always have a crowded church, and the
true pastor would always have a devoted
flock, the layman had a larger place than
ever before. The church which did not
provide for this would lose it's 1aymen.
They must be given not only offices, but
all the work they could do, and with the
burden would come greater effort upon
their part.
Justice Harlan of the United States Su-
preme Court presided at the night meet
ing and John H. Converse, president of
the Baldwin Locomotive Works, spoke.
