At the Church of Christ Tuesday

address of w. S. Athearn on "The
Pull of An Ideal' and that of Rev. A.
B. Corey on THE Spiritual Signif-
canoe of the Men and Millions Move
ment,' of which Rev. Corey is secre-
tary.
The address of Mr.. Athearn dwelled
upon the effect of an ideal upon the
mind of man towards the realization
of his ambitions along the lines of
higher Christian living and many
phases of the topic were shown by
apt illustrations.
The speaker dwelled upon the eff
fects of external environment in COM
parison with those inherited instincts
and the impressions which become
a part of ones life at an early age.
The thought brought out was that an
inbred ideal is stronger and carries
more weight in its influence upon a
mans life that does his environment.
make Christ your IDEAL" said Mr..
Athearn, "and with the life of the
Master in your mind, your life will
become Christlike regardless of your
surroundings"
Rev. Corey's address was full of in
spiration for the united efforts of the
church in the mission work, both at
home and in foreign fields.
The need of support of the missions
and the great work being done by
them was shown as only man with
his soul in the work could show it.
The speaker told of the work in the
face of difficulties arising from lack
of financial and moral support and
spoke of the many instances where
professed Christians dissuade mem
bers of their families from their am
bition to serve in the missionary
field, cases where parents discourage
