Plan Corps Of Critics to Dissect
Preachers.

Chicago ministers and pulpit orators
are to see themselves as other people
see them. The individuals whose con-
ceded right has been to hold the look
ing glass up to public error are about
to have the mirror hung up in front OF
them. Five critics who consider them
selves able to appreciate the "firstlys
and secondlys," not to mention the
"and fnallys' of the latter-day SER
mon are to visit as many churches one
Sunday each month, listen, take note,
and eventually report to an audience
in the Grand Opera House what they
think of the discourses.
This is be called a gospel clearing
house, and is the scheme of Spencer
Whitman Center, which has engaged
the downtown theater for each Sab
bath forenoon, supplanting the Man
gasarian lectures, which hereafter Will
be heard in Orchestra hall.
The Spencer-Whitman Center will
not have a steady pastor" to preach to
it's followers, and in this respect Its
lecturers will be more fortunately sit-
uated than brother ministers who oc-
cupy the same pulpits every Sunday.
The latter will be under fire from the
theater congregation, but will not be
in a position to retaliate.
The first five churches to be visited
by the critics have not been selected.
It is designed, however, that the in
itial dissection Of sermons shall take
place the morning of Sunday, Noven-
ber 26. On Sunday, November IS. the
critics visited certain churches, which
we're warned in advance of their COM
ing.
The Spencer-Whitman Center VIII
start its church next Sunday with
lecture by Hugh o. Pentecost Of New

others, takes money under false pre-
tense, hence my proposed action.
