airy work Is to commence with the
supper Friday evening and to con-
tinue through all day Sunday. The

auspices, fit In SO well with the gem
eral plan as to be included in the pro-
gram of the movement. Dr. Simms
will speak Sunday afternoon at $50
at the auditorium of the Y. NJ. C. A.
and in the evening at the First Bap-
list church In union service. As
stated heretofore, the purpose of the
movement is not to put something
new into the field; nor Is 1t design
ed to hold any other big meetings
than these. The effort as planned is
to add more life to the work already
being done and not to add more ma
chinery. There will be no shortcuts
for results, but an emphasis placed
upon the work for men and boys that
will arouse a renewed interest among
men in the church The program sub
