Frey Here
TO Glue Series
OF Addresses

you are having Russian weather
in Grand Forks. I feel very much at
home here" said DIR. John Alexander
Frey of Riga, Latvia, who arrived
here this morning to speak at a con-
ference being held in the First Bap-
fist. church. DR.. Frey spoke this
afternoon during the conference ses-
sion and this evening he will address
a public meeting at the First Baptist
church.
Having been for nearly forty years
the pastor Of a Baptist church at
Riga. and having had some rare ex-
periences during his pastorate, par
ticularly during the last five years.; DR..
Frey is known as one Of the most in
teresting church men on the lecture
platform in this country at the present
time. He is lecturing under the
American Baptist Home Mission So
ciety and is spending a year in
America. '@-
DR.. Frey, with other leading work.
ers in the Baptist, Mennonite. Ad-
ventist and Lutheran faiths, was ex-
lied to Siberia and spent, practically
all Of the years of 1916 and 1917 at
Irkutsk as a prisoner. He was per-
mitted to move about freely, how
tdence anywhere except in the actual
war zone. So long as there was sui
ficient money to keep the police and
authorities in good humor the
prisoners were treated fairly well, DR.
Frey said this morning. Z,
During his period Of exile he
gathered material that is Of ip4
estimable value for his writings and
lectures. DR.. Frey was sent as a
special representative Of the Lettish
Baptist relief work to the Russian
army in 1915, and he has travelled in
many parts of the world. ;.
The religious life of Russia has SUI.
fered as a result of communism, DR.
Frey said today. 1.-THE communists
followers are unlawful, they have nc
religion, no conscience, and deny all
authority in heaven or earth-mve
their own" DR.. Frey states. The
churches and their ministers struggle
along, however, and they are finding
a growing interest and desire for
spiritual things among the people
who are restless and dissatisfied, DR..
Frey said. /. a. =.
The general public has been invited
to hear DR.. Frey's lecture at the
Baptist church this evening. He will
speak at the university c~onvocation
