Along Lines of Evangelization.

Methodism must always develop along
lines of evangelization and you represent
the idea" Rev. DR.. Frank NJ Bristol
declared in an address of welcome last
evening. You of this organization ought
to be welcome every place. but there is no
more cordial welcome for you anywhere
than in Metropolitan Church. l believe
that we should draw our evangelists from
your ranks. | believe lat the local
preacher in this country Is to become the
great power that he Is in England We
need more the agency Of the local preach
er as the nation grows larger and the
field greater
DR.. Bristol then said that the Methodist
Church is indeed a living institution. LAS
far as ritual Is concerned, he added,
the Episcopal Church beats US all hollow,
but if l wanted a ritual 1 would be a
Roman Catholic. Methodism Is a hum
bug from top to bottom unless it Is to
develop along evangelistic lines. You are
home missionaries. There are frontiers In
Washington-in the alleys-in Philadel-
phia and New York"
In conclusion the speaker said: 1--WE
welcome you to this historic church built
by Bishop Simpson. He wanted national
church. This Is his effort"
DR.. Bristol then spoke of Presidents
Grant and Mckinley and Gen. Logan, who
We're communicates Of the church, and

result in glorious revival"
Rev. DR.. Sherwood Presides.

Rev. John w. r. Sumwalt. presiding
