Many Of these men" he said who

Man and Woman Have Their
Work to DO in the Church
Continuing, he said:

Continuing, he said:
Christianity has elevated woman
to the highest level which abe has
ever occupied in the history Of the
world. The old heather philosophers
We're in doubt as to whether women
had souls and among heather nations
today women are considered and treat
ed as chattel property.
But the Gospel of Christ has placed
woman to her proper place as the
helpmeet Of man. She is his equal in
the enjoyment OF all the spiritual
blessings OF the Kingdom.
"A real red-blooded man is not
looking for an easy job. He is ready
to leave the easy tasks to women and
children. But for himself he is look
ing for something that is cOmmensu-
rate with his superior powers. The
work of the church is the biggest
and most difficult task in the world.
1T is a big job to make the world
more learned more sanitary. more
civil and more beautiful, but the big
gest job OF all is to make the world
really better. TO regenerate men and
and change the whole course of their
lives. to change their hearts, to bring
them back into right relation to God
and their fellow men.
And this is the work in which
| The church is engaged. 1t includes
not one city. state or nation, but
the Masters command reads Go We
into all the world and make disciples
of all nations There can be no
bigger task than this. This 10 some
thing really worth while. To save
perishing men from temporal and
eternal ruin, can anything surpass
this in Importance and magnitude?
Task of the Church Is
Biggest Fight i'm World
But the task of the church is TIE
biggest fight in the world also and
on that account it should appeal to
| men. 1t is said Of women that they
are great scrappers but when you
are after a real fight you must call
on the men. Even among savages it
has been looked upon as the proper
thing that men should do the fighting
they are the soldiers.
During the recent war we called
not women, but men into the trenches.
All these millions of soldiers were
men. All wars have ostensibly been
waged in the interest of liberty. But
in the spiritual warfare which the
church is waging the question at
issue is real liberty, freedom from sin,
the glorious liberty of the children Of
God
THE question is whether you and
your wife and your children and your
neighbors are to be slaves OF the devil
or free children of God. 1t is the
fight OF light against darkness, OF
truth against error. of righteousness
against sin.
This fight has been on for six
thousand years. In it have been en-
gagged all the millions that live today
that have lived from the creation
and that will live to the end of time.
Yes, all the angels OF heaven and all
the devils of hell. If you as man
are looking for a figL, that is really
worth while here it is" DR.. Schulz
said.

KIWANIS TO WORK FOR VOTE

CHICAGO-A vigorous campaign TO
get all voters to vote in the fall cleo
lions is being planned by all the XII
wants clubs of the country, in accor-
dance with policies which have been
adopted by Kiwanis International at
meeting just concluded here.
In 1896, 5000 of all those eligible
voted in the presidential elections; in
1900, 1870 voted; in 1908 the percent
age decreased to $500; in 1912 there
was a further decrease to $3.50; and
in 1920 less than 500 of the voters
exercised their franchise.
"This campaign" said Victor M.
Johnson, newly elected president of
Kiwanis International, twill be to
urge all citizens to express the de-
sires of the entire people, and not less
than half of them. A continuation of
the present low voting percentage
would certainly lead to the impractic-
abilities and danger of radical mi
nority. The work of the clubs will be
part of our general campaign to pro-
mote an intelligent, aggressive and
serviceable citizenship.
"There is no craftsmanship in this
campaign, and no fund is being raised
to carry it on. Members of each of
the 1850 Kiwanis clubs will work in
their communities, purely on a basis
of developing this much needed citi-
zenShip."
