Church. the Rev. Edward G. Downey 5

ing" DR.. o. X. Hollister; reading by
DR.. F. NJ. Lyude; @The Minister'S Pass,
A. A. Stebbins: The Gentlemen" Mrs.
Frank w. jackson; The Layman's
League John w. Gordon
In speaking on the subject, "The Man
at Church. the Rev. Mr.. Downey said
that the subject could be divided into
three parts why men are coming to
church; the effect oy men coming to
church; and the church as a business
proposition. The fact that men are com
ing to church now more than ever is
due to the emphasis that is being put
on religion, and man is interested in
"a religion that is vital TO life and is not
interested in religion that is tied up
fin SO many creeds. A religion that il
vital in life and has to do with the prac-
teal everyday side Of this present life
interests men, and it is then that we find
the men in church.
The effect Of men coming to church
makes it power in the community.
Men who stay away from church but
contributed to its support look upon
their contribution as SO much charity,
but when the men come to church and
get interested in its welfare, the church
then becomes business proposition.
The business man seeks at once to put
it on a business proposition and will give
what he has to give without any feeling
Of charity and the church viii no longer
be dependent on its collections and sup
pers for its support. When man goes
to church it becomes a power in the
community He takes 1t out into the
business, the professional and the scien-
tihc world and uses It in his living The
church Of today il the science Of life
The art Of living right ID the greatest
business or science on earth, and the
church and men should work together for
this end.
