George Wharton Pepper of
Philadelphia, Episcopalian,
to Discuss Pulpit Work.
Clergy Heretofore Have Held
Place.

For the first time since its foundation
many years ago the Lyman Beecher
lectureship at Yale this year is to be
filled by a layman.
The layman in question is Mr. George
Wharton Pepper of Philadelphia.
Yale traditions are Congregational. it
is pointed out, but Mr.. Pepper is vestry
man of one of the Episcopal churches of
Philadelphia.
This. it is declared, is held to be a strik-
ing illustration Of the new church unity
achievements as well as ideals.
The Lyman Beecher lectureship at
Yale is regarded one of the most
famous as well as odest of similar foun-
dations. The subject is on pulpit work
the office of the preacher.
Always heretofore one preacher has
told others how to do it. The others in
the case are students in Yale divinity
school in theory. In practice they are
not only the students, and others who
come to listen. for the lectures are a
Yale and New Haven event, but in print
ed form they come to be up to date and
latest words for ministers on both sides
Of the Atlantic how best to fulfill their
peculiar function and service.
George Wharton Pepper is a Philadel-
phia lawyer and publiciSt and has gained
his fame in his own church by leadership
in shaping the legislation of its general
convention. He first took prominent lead
ership at the general convention held in
historic st. Pauls Church, Richmond, in
1907
His greatest service. it is pointed out,
was rendered at Cincinnati in 1910, and in
New York in 1913 he was one of the most
influential men in the convention.

life Of Confucius and reasoned deep

history of every human SOUL
At the request of her hearers she also

TbouQbts for the Dap.

For ages the church has spent herself
iayshly in the alienation of poverty;
now she fronts the harder task of trying
to prevent it
The old Israelites felt that prosperity
was the mark of divine favor. The Book
of Job and the other wisdom writings
of the Old Testament Strengthened out
that crooked line of thinking. Today
there are myriads of cody poor. If
prosperity denoted godlness, then our
richest millionaires would be our most
pious citizens. The rich in faith now,
as ever in the past, have been poor in
this worlds goods.
Poverty is true riches when it turns
mems thoughts from things to God.
