Layrnan Suggests Idea.
The movement in its inception was
not ecclesiastical It was democratic.
DR.. S. Earl Taylor is Methodist lay
man. That name won't be repeated
often if DIR. Taylor can help it. He is
not a self-advertiser. Personal honors
do not interest him, any more than have
the urgent appeals from several COM
mercial institutions to leave his mission
airy work and devote his talents, at
many times his present income, to their
business interests Actual achievement
in the service of his Master is his one
measure of success. His official position
is executive secretary of the Joint Cen
tenary Committee.
Although graduate of divinity
school, he refused ordination. He
wanted to become lay missionary, but
because of illness in his family, he could
not go abroad.
81 have always believed in missions"
he has said. 81 have always believed in
the great mission of the Christian
Church. That mission is to bring the
whole world to knowledge of Jesus,
and if that mission were too great for
the church to perform, the Master
would never have intrusted the Church
with its performance.
80 far, the church has not carried
out its mission. But today we have
more reason than ever to have faith in
the church. The church is awakening.
1t takes no prophet to see that 1t is
beginning to realize its mission, and
millions right here in America are now
consecrating themselves not merely to
lead better life according to the old
and inadequate Interpretation of con-
secration but to give to the cause of
world redemption and world democracy
their full share of organized service
Same Old Gospel Preached.
I'VE are not preaching new gospel
We are offering 70 amendments to the
teachings of Christ. His plan of saliva
ton was complete. The difference be-
tween the awakening church of today
and the eminenuy respectable and emf
nentiy futile church of the past is in our
fuller realization of the meaning of our
Masters message
yesterday, it was customary to think
OF the church as harbor of refuge. 1t
Is harbor; but harbor has vastly
greater uses than to furnish refuge
rom rom the storm. 1t is port of EN-
oarkation in the Masters service. 1t is

'PJect is not to shelter rs from the

storm, but to equip US to deliver the
goods.
Yesterday many good people
thought of the church as an institution
to give comfort to the dying and pre-
pare the souls of those who ask forgive
ness for the Day of Judgment and the
unknown life beyond. Today we are
beginning to realize It's greater mission.
For individual sin it still offers the one
and only remedy, but if it is to be a
power in the world that is, it must apply
the principles of Jesus to heal not only
the individual but the social life.
1.-THE American Church has hereto
fore had remedy for drunkenness, but
only this year has it abolished the
organized liquor traffic Heretofore it
has offered to each seeker an adequate
remedy for wilfull idleness, but it did
not attempt to solve the unemployment
problem 1t has held out remedy for
personal greed, but it often seemed in
different to those social abuses which
led to extremes of wealth and poverty.
1t has Taught kindness to servants, but
it has lot thrown itself in any organized
way into the modern workingman's
struggle for living wage. 1t has
theoretically taught the universal
Fatherhood of God, but not until the
present time did it enlist body and soul
in war for world democracy.
Bold Labor Program Adopted.
six years ago the Methodist Epis-
copal Church of America adopted a
definite labor program. 1t boldly as
serted the right of the workers to en-
ployment, and their right not only to a
living wage, but to the highest wage
that industry can afford to pay. 1t
sympathized with the aims and aspira-
tions of the modern labor union, but it
went further in its labor program than
the unions could go. 1t demanded JUS
tice and something more, 1t demanded
that the problems of employer and en-
ployed be worked out under the in
SEPARATION of Christian fellowship, and
that industry be organized, not to sat
isfy the individual thirst for wealth, but
to extend to every one the highest OPP
portunity for joyful service.
''The Methodist Episcopal Church.
he said, "is the only church which now
has missions in every country on earth.
We are not afraid of any situation we
can possibly find in any foreign field
Our missionary society is not afraid of
wars, famine or plague. We are not
afraid Of hostility or repression. The
only thing we have to fear-tbe only
thing that can now stand in the way of
a completely successful campaign-is
indifference on the part of the church
at home.

splendid spirit and indomitabe will,
could have accomplished nothing in
France if it had been deserted on the

this and other purposes, American
Methodism has been divided into twenty
Episcopal areas and each area into con-
ference, district and sub-district groups,
each with its responsible leader.
In addition an elaborate publicity
program has been mapped out. News
papers and magazines, church and
secular press, labor and trade, class
publications-in fact every Kind of
publication which can be reached upon
the basis of legitimate news appeal, will
be utilized No means of letting Amer
lea know that the drive for worldwide
Christian democracy is on will be over
looked
To Enroll 100000 Speakers.
An army of 10000 Methodist Min
ute Men" is being recruited, largely
from the men who did similar service
for Uncle Sam. Dr.. Christian F.
Reisner, pastor of Grace Church, New
York, has been released for six months
to organize this division of publicity.
DR.. Reisner began the work with
prayer and falkland advertising. AL
ready he has more than 10000 "Metho-
dist Minute Men" modified and the re-
suits have exceeded his most optimistic
expectations.
There will be two of these Minute
Men" in every Methodist church in
America-and for every church with
more than 200 members there will be an
additional man for each 100. One of
their chief duties will be to present the.
centenary work through fve-minute
speeches. They viii speak in churches,
Sunday schools, in theaters, motion pic
ture houses public entertainments,
everywhere. A special magazine called
Missiles" is being issued for the use
OF these men alone. Its one purpose is
to furnish ammunition to the speakers.
The Methodist Movies" will be an
interesting feature of American life
soon. The committee has a staff of ex-
perts in every mission field, and it is in
tended to familiarize every American
with the life of the oppressed every
where. But the picture campaign aims
to do more than that. 1t aims to bring
the thought home to every one that ali
men are brothers and that the agonies
OF war, ignorance and oppression can
be remedied only through Christian
democracy of the world.
This stupendous movement did not
originate with the official machinery of
the church.
i am glad it started in the Metho-
dist Church" said DR.. Taylor. And /
am glad it started from the rank and
file. The Methodist Church, historical
ly, has been the church of the common
people; and if it is to be power in the
life of the world it must always remain
just that We are not looking to the
wealthy for the 1920, 100000. We are
looking to the common people, the plain

DIGIT upon the heels of the fifth
n Liberty Loan campaign there
will be sirth-not loan of
billions to Uncle Sam, but one
of millions for God
One hundred twenty millions of
dollars is the sum to be raised In the
campaign to be waged every man,
woman and child in America viii be
reached and people in every inhabitable
part of the globe viii be affected
Only world converted TO the prac-
teal application of Christianity can be
considered world safe for democracy
this is the big idea back of this great
world movement originated and further
ed by the Methodist Episcopal Church
and the Methodist Episcopal Church
South. DR.. S. Earl Taylor, originator
and present leader layman, by the
way-of the movement, has explained it
all this way:
"The world cannot be reconstructed
by a formula. No mere agreement
among diplomats can heal the wounds
of war. No international constitution,
however perfect in its phrasing, and no
mere economic revolution, however
sweeping in its scope, can bring about
the universal reign of peace and good
will among men. Such a peace is the
fundamental aspiration of every human
heart, but it cannot be realized through
force, 1t cannot be realized through gov
eminent and it cannot be realized
through law alone. World democracy
can and will be realized only through
applied Christianity and nothing but
falthlessness on the part of the Chris
tan church need delay its realization
now"
More Than Religious Movement
Christianize a nation and 7,,
democratize it; it is this belief that Ia
stimulating this great worldwide move
ment, Christian movement, church
movement, strictly religious move
ment; but one which will soon comnel
the world to attach new meanings to The
words church" and religion" and
christianity" This new movement
has something of the spirit of the old
American revival and something of
the fervor of the ancient crusades.
The movement took its name from
the centenary of the founding of the
Methodist Missionary society. 1t has
been endorsed by every interdenomina-
tional conference which has had il
under consideration.
A complete survey of every field has
been made by the Methodists and the
campaign is to be waged with almost
military strategy. The main objective.
have been mapped out. The sinews O
war are being modified. The arme

home front Exactly the same situa-
ton exists with US. The world may be
brought to Christ in our time, genuine
world democracy and human brother
hood may be achieved, and the era Of
war and industrial strife rive place to
permanent peace and good will, if the
churches of America consecrate them
selves to this achievement
World Needs Surveyed.
The, first main objective of the CEN
tenary drive is to equip every Methodist
mission, at home and abroad, for 100
per cent efficiency. Forty million
dollars has been appropriated for each
branch of the work, and the exhaustive
survey tells in detail just where and
how the money is to be spent.
The Christian religion is the only
religion which answers the need of the
day. 1t is peculiarly tine religion of
the present, for it is the religion of
dynamic democracy. 1t is the only re-
ligion which can satisfy in thes. days of
social unheaval. Jesus spoke to the
common people and the common people
heard Him gladly. He was bitter in
His denunciation of caste and privilege.
He proclaimed world for those who
serve their fellow men, but world to
be gained through the application Of
love and fellowship instead o. through
violence and hatred.
Poor suffering India needs such
religion. Her hundreds of millions are
the despair of democracy today simply
because her religion is caste religion.
Christianize India and we will democ-
ratize India. / realize that the very
suggestion viii shock and scare many
servitors of special privilege, but there
can be no compromise ON this funda-
mental Christian doctrine. Either we
are for Christ or against Him. Either
we are for democracy or against it. A
Christian world will be a democratic
world; but only through Christianity
will democracy be made safe"
Big Prayec Drive Planned.
To start the drive the Methodists
have organized Fellowship of Inter
cession Ito release the prayer power of
the church" Tens of thousands have
enrolled in this fellowship, each pledged
to devote certain period each day to
prayer.
Next, there is stewardship drive"
One million American Methodists are
wanted to join in this. For FIVE years
they will contribute one-tenth of their
income to this Christian work.
Enlistment for life service" is an
other feature of this program. The
drive will call for new army of mis-
sionary workers, and it is intended that
this army shall be completely trained
and utterly devoted to the cause.
Soon there is to be a nationwide
financial campaign to obtain pledges
for the necessary $12o,o00,ooO. For

Christians and plain Americans who
believe in Christianity and Americanisn
80 heartily that they are willing to give
their tithes to extend these blessings to
the world at large"
Emphasis Placed on Service.
The Methodists have not forsakn
their Methodist creed In this move
ment there is no attempt to slight The
fundamental doctrine of the Atonemsns
nor that of justification by faith. But
undue emphasis will not be placed upoa
doctrine. The emphasis will rather Be
upon Christian service and upon re-
Igion of the heart. 1t should be e.
planned that there is no competition To-
day in foreign missionary work. Where
one denomination Is adequately coser
ing the field, the field is left to that de-
nomination, and all the other CHURCHES
recognize its institutions as the e1pres-
sion of Christianity.
The old system of church extension
in the rural communities will large
ly be abandoned. Instead of build
ing little meeting houses, to Be
opened once a week when weather per
mits and 5000 a year pastor can q
supplied, an effort viii be made to bula
large institutional churches IN the
charge of competent and well salareo
executives, not merely as places u
which to sing hymns and pray, but a. =
general headquarters of community
service. These churches will be open
continuously; will contain libraries ano
agricultural exhibitions, moving pic
lures, a first aid hospital and ever!
possible aid to the social and educa'
tional life of the adjacent Territory
Anything, in city or country, which per
forms social service will be considered
legitimate part of Methodist missionary
work.
