NOTED LECTURER
BEGINS SERVICE
DR.. McCuaig, Of New York
City, Addresses -Four
Large Audiences.

DR.. ]. Aspinalt McCuaig, of New
York, opened his weeks campaign in
this city yesterday with four adj
dresses. He gave sermon in the
morning, one in the evening and an
address to men and another to women
in the afternoon. He fulfilled the ad-
vance notices as to his ability as an
able, forceful and entertaining speak
er.
DR.. McCuaig will speak each after
noon and evening of this week except
Saturday in the First Methodist Epis-
copal Church. In the afternoon he
will lecture on eugenics to women,
and In the evening he will lecture on
kindred subjects to both men and wo.
men.
DR.. McCuaig's first address was at
the Diamond Street N. Z. Church
yesterday morning on ''The Need OF
Men" He took his text from the first
book of Samuel, 18th chapter, God
has need OF human instrumentaltty,
he said. "He has need Of men today
and there are certain human elements
on which he is dependent" Referring
to the life Of David, he proceeded to
point them out. He first spoke of the
sensitiveness of David, then his con-
viction. logic, discretion and effective
ness. The sermon excited much COM
ment among those who heard It..
At 2:30 in the Methodist Protestant
Temple DR.. McCuaig was happily in
troduced by DR.. Woodley to fine au-
dience Of men. For an hour and a
half the attention of every man pres.
ent was riveted on the speaker.
After the mems meeting DR.. Nc
Quaig spoke to meeting OF women
in the First Methodist Episcopal
Church on the subject How Girls
Fall"
In the evening he talked in the
same church on Conditions in Amert:
can Cities" He said II he were to
diagnose the conditions OF city he
would go to the churches. So far as
they are decadent, so far will vice
dominate, he said. The church Is
lacking in enthusiasm today, he said,
not for department work, but for
Christ. He again characterized mem
bers of churches as messengers of
Christ rather than ambassadors. Not
in the pulpit, not in the homes, he
said, Is there the deep sense Of the
need OF Christ that there should be.
He said men and women should de-
velop the habit OF sitting, walking
and dying daily with Jesus to become
thoroughly Christian.
This evening DR.. McCuaig will
speak on "The Responsibility Of the
Home for Social Evil" at s o'clock in
the First Methodist Episcopal Church.
The subject of the o'clock lecture
