WANTS A GRAND" CHURCH.



Ben Rice, who used to be Western
Union and U. P. R. R. operator, and
who married daughter Of Andrew
Hart, writes from Caldwell, Idaho;
.since leaving Abilene sixteen years
ago, I've gone to preaching, which is
still my lite's work and Joy am
incorporating in Idaho and will copy
right in the U. s. and open headquar-
tors in San Francisco. Cincinnati and
St. Louis recording offices for what
we have been pleased to call The
Grand Church. The purpose Is 70
furnish one central place in which
may be kept the Christian member
ship Of all those who desire to follow
Christ, but who, for some reason OF
their own, cannot see their way clear
to fall in with any of the 1920 various
sects in the present religious world.
The "Grand Church" will occupy
nearly the same relation to all ana
every other church that the Grand
lodge occupies for the subordinate
lodges, /. g. so far as membership IS
concerned. You know in some lodges
where experience has shown that ire
quent abandouments Of local organi-
cations are had, there is provision
for members to transfer their MEM
bership to the Grand lodge. In this
respect this new move is the same
Millions Of the very poor, at least the
poorest people, give their poverty as
an excuse for remaining out Of the
earthly church membership. There
is no question but that this Is one OF
the very best reasons for it that can
possibly be conceived. The Prlest-
hood wants pay and 1t is going to
have pay too, II there Is any way o
maintaining schools for the purpose
, Of teaching that pay to the essential.
70 the end that no Priesthood shall
ever occupy a ruling place in the new
branch OF the Christian church, and
that no soul shall be kept outon &C.
count Of his perjury, there is no pro-
vision tolerated for paying into its
, treasury single penny in fact II
shall have no treasury.

order that the constant leak in church
