LECTURES TOMORROW r. M.

Continuing the series of Illustrated
lectures on Mission Work in Many
Lands, Rev. A. A. Ebersole will pre-
sent at Central Union church Sunday
evening very interesting set Of views
on Life Among the Native Peoples
In America The average person,
fer instance, knows very little about
the Eskimo; nor Is 1t generally known
that the first herd Of reindeer was
brought into Alaska not by the gov
ernment but by a missionary with
money raised BY private subscription.
A number OF views will be shown de-
seribfng life as II is lived in the far
away land Of Alaska.
Recent years have Witnessed re-
markable development Of new type
OF Indian and the pictures in this part
OF the lecture will show our govern
ment In these latter days is making
up In some measure for the neglect
and the gross injustice towards this.
race in the past by putting forth
splendid efforts for the elevation and
civilization Of these people.
Another very interesting class OF
people which the lecture describes is
the mountain whites, who have for.
$50 years lived in an isolated region
hemmed in by mountain walls. There
will be pictures showing what primi-
tive customs stIll prevail among these
people and others to show the new.
spirit which is invading
The lecture concludes with q brief
references to the people IN our latest
accession Porto Rico, where native
Porto Ricans are being trans
formed into useful American citi.'

An Hrehgious Age !?

We are hearing much about this
being an irreiig;ous age. The falling
off in church attendance is noticeable
nearly deserted, and very few are at.
tracing as mani people as a few
years ago. A survey Of Presbyterian
churches of Manhattan made Sunday,
March 80, 1914, shows a decrease of
1882 per cent over ten years ago,
while the membership has increased
2100 in the decade. An elder OF one
of the leading Presbyterian churches
is quoted as saying: I'VE need young
hustlers in the ministry. The figures
prove that it is a mistake to cling
to old ways" Fewer men proportion
ately are entering the ministry and
this is thought to indicate an ire
ligious attitude. -.
Yet there is much evidence to show
that this is an intensely religious age.
The Layman's Missionary Movement
the Men and Religion Forward Move
ment, and organized Bible classes In
dictate deep religious interest That
interest is not expressed in the forms
employed by our grandfathers. but
the spirit is religious. nevertheless.
The number of books published each
year is a fair, indication of the lines
of interest. The publishers do not
intend to print books that will not
sell. The largest. number of hooks
published in any grouD in 1913 was
976 in Sociology and Economics. !"
and the next largest group was in
Religion" being 944 books. The
biggest seller of the year was reli-
gious book, The Inside of the CUP. =
In 1912 the number of religious books
brought out was 916. ss..
Join the church In order to recon.
struct her. Take your new thought,
fresh love, modern visions and fearless
attitudes into her eounsels and pro
grams and save the church from the
danger OF being a time server, in
bondage to the rich and afraid to try
the program Of the Master.
Join the church that God may con-
fess you as His own, that you may
save the fellow who waits your ac-a

Church Going Manners


These whose aim it is to have good
manners, and who would be careful to
be courteous in the house of a friend.
are sometimes forgetful of the laws
| Of courtesy when In a church Rever-
lencc and respect for the place itself
naturally would seem to be the first
thing to appeal TO right-minded per-
sons. Yet too often there are EVIL
dences of thoughtfulness and selfish
ness.
One Of the most disturbing sounds in
a church is that OF voices whisper
ing in conversation. Even converse
ton on religious matters may best be
deferred for another time and place.
Comments on the service, even II fax-
qrable, are not fitting, and, ii critical,
are a positive breach Of good man
ners. In most cases critical COM
|ments result from lack OF instruc-
ton in the significance Of the service.
Among well-bred people the rule Is
to conform to the customs in any
church service, though they may be
unfamiliar. One should stand when
others stand, kneel when others kneei.
III seems remarkable that persons
who would never wish to make them
selves conspicuous by standing up in
"a pew when others are kneelfng or
seated often insist on remaining seat
ed when others are kneeling or stand
ing. They forget that they are com
spicuous. They seem indifferent to the
fact that they may be interfering with
the convenience, or even the peace Of
mind, of some one directly behind, who,
in 4 crowded pew, may not be able
either to stand or kneel without COM
ing into contact with the back of the
person In front who remains seated.
Staring and .craning the neck, as II
sightseeing, should be avoided. 1t Is
not polite to look at ones watch or
turn over the pages Of book during
the sermon. as il bored; nor is 1t
courteous to play with or fiutter a
leafet Of the church music, for In
stance, to the annoyance Of persons
near by, who wish to be quiet and d.
rect their attention to the sermon.
Pew owners show courtesy and graz.
eiousness In offering seats TO .strang-
eTs. If seats are free, and one has
taken an end seat, 1t is best to move
UP II others wish to enter, and not
require them to push by II one pre-
fefs to retain an end seat it is hest
to move out. allow others to pass in
and then resume the seat. These ere
not trivial matters. They are even
more important In the church than
elsewhere. Disregarded. the helpful
ness Of q service Of worship may be
lost to many.
After 1.-THE service, when walking
down the aisle, it Is we'll to observe
silence. Greetings with friends, con-
yersation, making introductions. in
fact. all mutual communications, may
be properly deferred until outside of
the building.
Earnest thoughtful, considerate
rhurchgoers help the pastor make the
church q cordial, restful. homely house
