PROF. JOS. K. HART
OF STATE UNIVERSITY
TALKS ON MOVEMENT

The Christian church vas made
the headquarters for the Men and
Religion Forward Movement. where
Joseph X. Hart of the University of
Washington talked on the Bible and
the needs of better understanding
OF it. He said in part that "the
Bible was not written BY professional
religious teachers but by men who
lived what they wrote and wrote what
they lived: they lived and preached
justice between man and man, the
same problem that still confronts US.
The strore for the chance to live
and enjoy the privilege which they
knew were theirs by right, but which
through greed and misrule had been
kept from them and humanity as a
whole.
The only religion that ever had a
place in the world or has now, is
the one that solves the problems that
stand in the way of better life: II
is the one which makes it possible for
men and women. boys and girls TO
live better lives
This. is the work OF the Men and
Religion Forward Movement to rally
all force for good to accomplish the
same results that the world has al
WAYS been working for.

Various advice has been given to

visited here have argued that the
peach is a good thing and that in fu-

vised that those planted be permitted
to develop, saying that the future
would justify their advice.
