sUILIvAN's MEMORY IGNORED


 Manchester, N. H., Dec. 3.-ln- dustrial Manchester is paying trib- ute today to the memory of R. G. Sullivan, founder of the 7-20-4 cigar
 The story of Roger G. Sullivan is a story of American opportunity i'm proved to the full. He was born in Bradford, N. H., Dec. 1S., 1854, but removed with his parents to Man chester, N. H., when a child, and in this city built up the business which brought him success and has made Manchester famous wherever cigars are smoked.
 In December, 1874, at the age of 19, Roger Sullivan hired a small store and one cigarmaker and began the manufacture and sale of cigars, Later he located at 72i Elm street, Manchester. From the street num- Der of this store, PA, the 7-2O-4 cigar derived its name.
 Since 1874 the business has out grown six factories and now occupies one of the largest and most hygienic cigar factories in the world. More than 1900 men and women are em- ployed, with an annual payroll ot over two million dollars.

CHASING the present modernist-

Rev. Earle Whitley, preaching at the
Vermont Avenue Christian Church
yesterday, declared that the funda-
mentalist Of today is the liberalist
Of yesterday and that the liberalist
of today will become the fundamen-
tahst of tomorrow.
"Out of the conflict between
modernists and fundamentalists.
Christianity will rise a sweeter and
purer religion" he said.
Both modernist and fundamental
list, DR.. Whitley said, are sincere
and honest, and both are necessary.
THE :modernist is the religious
pioneer who blazes the trail, who
suffers isolation and discovers the
newest religious truths, and the
fundamenta1igt is the stabilizer who
puts on the brakes.
The present differences between
these two schools Of religious
thought ultimately will bring good
to the cause of Christianity. It will
cause the public to do q little indie
pendent thinking on it's own &C.
count and to brush away many of
the non-essential and foolish notions
regarding so-called sacred subjects. ;"
'Fundamentalism and modernism
are terms expressive Of two ex-
tremes Of religious thought, he said.
Both include large elements of
truth and both are valuable to I'm.
