1.-THE MAN WHO WORKS." KENYON
OF GREAT CHURCH GATHERING

DENVER. Col, May 24.-Let
down the bars of religion and make
a place for the man who works.
Preach the gospel in terms of
2 9th century "every-dayism that
will fit the lives OF the men and
women who belong to the ranks of
the workers.
Here are some of the underly-
ing purposes of a great movement
which has been set going in the
Presbyterian church at large In
this country through the General
Presbyterian Assembly, now In ses-
sion here.
The assembly Is a body of about
1000 voting delegates. The posi-
bility of bringing about such re-
form, along broad lines, as should.
naturally, bring the laboring class
es into closer harmony with the
church, has seemed of sufficient in
terest to the Presbyterian denom-
nation, already, to make IL worth
while to organize labor and
church department under the d.
rection of Rev. Chas. Stelzle.

STORY TELLING
TO BE RESUMED

Miss Jessie M. Carson, children's
librarian at the city library, will
resume her weekly afternoons of
story telling next week, in accord
ance with vigorous demand on
the part of the tots who formerly
delighted in her unique tales. The
storytelling afternoons were dis
continued several weeks ago, when
the library was being remodeled.
Miss Carson's fervent eloquence,
of exactly the kind that appeals to
children of the primary and lower
grammar grades, has won her a
warm corner in the hearts of her
little devotees, and when the story
telling was not renewed, the little
ones set up vigorous call.
