THE KIND OF MEN

Emerson is not often improved up
on. Hear i'm; "The true test of a civ
ilization is not the census, not the
size of cities, nor the crops, but in
the kind of men the country turns
out" True it is that "illfares the
land, to fastening ills pray, Where
wealth accumulates, but men decay"
This church is interested greatly
in developing better men and women.
We believe these results come
