LAYMENS MISSION MOVEMENT

The awakening of the people of Montgomery to the importance of the Laymen's Missionary Movement was made apparent, and the value of the educational work of the Council of the Fourth Missionary Department of the Episcopal Church that has been done during it's sessions in Montgomery the past three days was proved by the large and enthusiastically interested audience which paid tribute to the body at the final mass meeting in the Montgomery Theater Thursday even- ing.
 The auditorium of the old theater was filled with people who showed in their faces the utmost interest in every word that was spoken by Bishops Woodcock. of Kentucky, Gal Tor. of Tennessee. and Nelson, of At ianta. who addressed them.
 The meetings was presided over by the Rt. Reverend L. w. Burton, D. b. Bishop of Lexington, who introduced the speakers of the evening.
 The Rt. Reverend Charles E. Wood cock. D. D.. Bishop of Kentucky spoke on the subject, No Missions; No Chris tianity.'t
 .'Christianity." said he, differs from all other religions of the world. It is not like Buddhism, 1t is not like Shinto- Ism, 1t Is not like Brahmanism, and 1t is not like Mohammedanism. Chris tianity differs from all of these and all the rest in that 1t is a missionary religion. The very life of Christ from whom we spring. was a missionary one and to repudiate missionary work is to repudiate Christ Himself. It is treason against Christ and nothing less.
 The man. 1t matters not who he may be, nor to what form of Christianits he may claim allegiance. who admits lack of interest in missions by that mark admits himself un-Christian
 Some people seem to think thai the layInen's missionary movement and the great awakening in general in mls. sionary work Is some sort of discover, or innovation or invention that has beer brought out as an annex to Chris. tianity. That 1t is a kind of after. thought of this latter day time that has been affixed to the general bod, of what has been heretofore counted Christianity. Such Is not the case I, IS most untrue. Missionary work i, the very first thing In Christianity. tb, foremost thing In the life of Christ The only trouble is that we have ions suffered from sort of spiritua'

It is Christ that calls for aid at your door in the uncouth form of your black neishbor. Shall He say to you I suffered and ye knew me
 Farewell Addxese.
 The farewell address was delivered by the Rt Rev. K. Nelson, D. D.. Bisn- op of Atlanta.
 pr. Nelson devoted most of his time to review of what the people of Montgomery have learned from the Council while at work in Montgomery, He said that 1t had been learned that the Episcopal Church had been the only church in the history of the world to give to the world the Bible in suca form that 1t could be studied. That 1t is the only church of all the churches that mas ever offered to meet the other churches on a common ground for joining in work of Christ without in tending to absorb them. That they have been told of the wonderful sift to the world from the Episcopal church of the book of common prayer.
 You may think" said he, that would do nothing but sing the praise of the Episcopal Church. would sing the praises of the Episcopal Church. but let us not sing the praises of our church and then shirk the, responsibili- ties of that church nor the labors that are its own.
 Therefore. want you all to go out as the light-bearers of Jesus Christ. carry His word unto all the world as we are told to do. This. my friends, is the reason that we are here"
