Success.

"Never since the days Of the grea
Reformation has there been such a erea
opportunity for an intellectual man thor
oughly alive and in harmony with thi

come an actual social force.
Doctor Matthew'S says that the church

finding properly trained men 10 carry ii
through this period of social transition

exists for men wishing TO 20 into Chris

backward unless it goes forward. 1t can.
not stand still. Religion must touch the
life which is being created and lived to-
day. Religion which looks backward is
not religion for forward going world.
"The fundamental purpose of religion
leaders today is to develop life by bring
ing society into contact with the great
personality Of God. Men who have ef.
i-cied this contact can enter their places
in other fields and their efforts will be
felt there he says.
