Evangelist Places RESPONSE
bility of Presence Here
on Ministers.

Calling upon Christian men ana
women of Richmond TO lay aside their
amusements and bend their united eff
forts toward the good of the services.
Evangelist /. E Honeywell formally
opened his tabernacle campaign last
night.
The male church workers were re-
quested to give up card playing. dane
ing, clubs, theater going and similar
frivolities while the women were ad-
jured to stop all meetings of mission
airy organizations, clubs. W. c. T. u.
societies and all other work that might
tend TO detract from interest in the
campaign.
This is not my campaign" said the
evangelist. ''If the Christian men and
women of this city cannot promise to
do their dead level best In helping
make these meetings a success, ! will
pack my trunk and take the next train
to Chicago. / will. so help me God.
Asks Personal Attention.
"a revival carried on by the unaided
efforts of an evangelist would be as
futile as an assault on Gibraltar with
green peas. The people are just as res
ponsive to religious influence as they
ever We're, but they are so absorbed in
the mad rush for money and other
| things that distract their attention
that they must be given personal at
tention If they are TO be brought 10
these meetings.
After investigating me and my
methods, your Ministerial Association
asked me to come to your city to con-
duct these services. You cannot leave
G..I. Z, IL
false to your pastor. your church and
your God. You have asked me here.
The door is closed to criticism. Now il
is yours but TO do or die.
Criticizes Fault Finders.
There will be those, of course. who
will take the opportunity of finding
fault You can tell an unsound horse
by the way he flinches when a curry
comb is run over his sore spots.
At this point the evangelist paused
| a moment to pay his respects to those
who have asked why the money spent
in building the tabernacle in alleviat-
ing the condition of the poor in Rich
mond by reminding them of those who
objected to the annointment of Christ
by Mary, and stood about wondering.
why wasn't this ointment sold and
the money given to the poor?"
some OF your cneTlsned conventions
may be broken during the progress of
these meetings" he continued. THE
small critic and the superficial obser-
yer may howl. but IL you are observ-
ant you will be able to see that IL fol-
lows a definite plan.
Sharp Language Needed.

cry stable we must meet him on his

First Nj. E. Pastors Sermon
Based on Criticism of Rich
mond Laymen.
FEW WELL INFORMED
ON MODERN SUBJECT
Minister Must Work Hard
Today to Keep in Touch
With Modern Thought.

The Rev B. E. Parker, pastor of
the First Methodist church, delivered
the first of a series OF interesting and
timely sermons on church conditions
services Sunday morning.
The Message of the Pew TO the
Pulpit" was the subject of his ser
mon and he emphasized the fact that
steadily increasing standard of educa-
ton of those who occupy the pews
makes the task of a minister in keep
ing abreast of the time and continu-
ing as a real force in shaping the
thoughts of the age increasingly diff
cult.
The Rev Mr.. Parker's sermon was
based on the replies he received from
10 a list of questions he recently dis
tributed to citizens in every walk of
life. In part, he said:
Duties of Minister.
I'm examining the great pile of pa
pers that came to my desk | was not
unprepared to discover that a great
many of your suggestions had TO do
with the preachers sins of omission
in the pulpit. This, / say, was ex-
pected. The Protestant minister to
succeed must be an executive, a finan-
cier. a priest, a shepherd: but first of
all. he must be a preacher. The Pro-
testant ministry is essentially a
preaching ministry. AS one eminent
writer has recently said. there is no
one thing the people will be so slow
to forgive as an inability to preach.
"Our first business is to declare the
gospel of the Son of God and inter
pret and apply it to the particular
needs of the age in which we live.
There is a real demand that we do this
and that, and do il we'll. We are liv-
ing in an age in which the printing
press is a great factor. The newspa-
per, the magazine. the public library.
and books at a price to make we'll
selected library possible in every
home are to be coped with as forces
in the formation of ideals and moral
instruction. But they can never take
the place of public speech. The Ii
brary is an aid, but not a substitute
for the forum or pulpit
Forum Coming to Its Own.
"a sentimental maiden may sit in
her room and read in our popular nov
els some very ardent declarations of
love, but the time will come when she
WOulu prefer 10 SIT III the lIOnI pdIlOI
and hear such words, though they
are not so elegantly declared. The
printed page is no substitute for the
spoken word and it never will be. The
preacher is here to stay. but his task
becomes more exacting every year.
The wide dissemination of popular
learning. The flood of low-priced lit
erature is constantly bringing up the
standard OF education in the pews.
and the man who would keep ahead
of the pews and be a real force in
shaping the thoughts of the age has.
as l say, an increasingly difficult task
before him.
Demands are made upon the TWEEN
tieth century pulpit that were un-
thought of in the last century. The
age may be demanding more preaching
but il is undeniably demanding bet
ter preaching. 1t is evident from your
replies to my questions that this is

'Mr. Jessup says in defense of his

Republican party ever did in any like

Il want TO say to Mr.. Jessup that in
