Or. HUNTS LECTURE EN-
JOYED BY LARGE AUDIENCE


A splendid audience greeted the
Rev. DR.. III. P. Hunt, pastor of the
First Baptist church of Fort Collins.
Thursday night at the First Baptist
church in this city. The speaker is a
chum of Dr. Stafford's and the happy
repartee of both pastors was heartily
enjoyed by those present.
DR.. Hunt has been a noted lecturer
for some years and his popularity
was we'll sustained in the hour and a
halfs talk given Thursday nigh,
which held the closest attention of the
congregation.
"Be Somebody"
was the theme discussed and many
trite sayings. and elevating thoughts
and sentiments very elegantly ex-
pressed, with liberal sprinkling OF
Illustrations and humorous stories
that gave opiCe anu Ndiicts " the
very excellent lecture delivered. -Is
life worth living" as marriage a
failure" etc., were pertinently dis
cussed. The God who gave life Gre
ated it for purpose was good
thought brought out. There is no hal
man being but what has its limita-
tions. The joys of childhood, the
home, the sacredness of married life,
were points made Introductory to the
subject. The speaker then mentione d
several stepping stones in Being
somebody" starting with the thought
of the overmastering ambition to be
somebody. The world has opening for
everybody that wants to be some
body. The world wants men, inteili-
gent men. The world has room f'r
men of merit who deserve merit The
world wants man not men, were many
good points enlarged upon. The third
point he made was in leadership
success against difficulties-the per-
spective in life-the more you give,
the more you receive-the enlarged
life. There is nothing greater than
man, and character makes man, COM
mon sense, tact and other attributes
in a great life were profitably dis
cussed to the edification OF all.
