MONDAY EVENING, NOV. 14TH
STEWART LONG
LECTURER

Occasionally a prophet arises to
declare that the inspirational lecture
has lost its power. that folks are tired
of hearing of the eternal verities, and
that only the new is good. But to-
morrow the sun will rise,as it has
beauty with which It gilds the earth
will be as new as il was on the first
morning. The pessimist declares that
the spoken word has lost its power,
that great lives have lost their at
traction, that the story of achievement
is no longer an inciter of ambition,
only the new is invigorating. Yet
the springtime brings the greening
of the trees, and the upstarting of the
grasses is as great a miracle, and as
satisfying as when the first man
gazed upon it in the beginning.
So long as the earth is re-peopled,
and new generations seek for light,
the old truths will prevail. They are
fundamental. All the new generation
tasks is that man who brings the mes
sage of truth shall have lived it, and
shall speak as one having authority.
Only in form does the message
change.
Stewart Long is one of the younger
generation of lecturers who is giving
new life and vitality to the time old
truths. His lectures touch life's prob
lens with helping hand. They in
spire the young to high endeavor.
They brighten the pathway of the
man who struggles. They are dis
tinctly worth while.
Mr.. Long is not an experiment. He
worked his own way through the
steel mills, the preparatory school and
theseminary, to the pastorate of three
prominent churches of the Hoosier
state. He has been upon the plat
form for number of years, and has
won his right to a place among the
established successes of the Lyceunl.
Enthusiastic Communications of his
lectures have not been lacking. They
have been called "rich in illustra-
tion," filled with humor dramatic
descriptions which gripped the audi
ence."
