Lesson In Brief
By REV. b. A. MEEKS

Subject: 1.-THE Mission Of the
Church"
Bible Passages: Matthew 1878
II; Acts 1:8; 2:42; 6:1-4; 11:27-3O;
1918; I John 1:3.
Golden Text: GAS my Father
hath sent me, even so send l
you. John 2O:21.
Having given consideration to
the problems and blessings of
family life we now logically turn
to the mission of the church, for
the home and the church are very
closely linked together. 1t is to
be regretted that they are not
more closely aligned in our pre-
sent day. The church as a divine
institution has a manifold mission
in the earth. This mission may
be considered under a fourfo1d
ministry.
l The ministry of preaching or
evangelism. The first and major
tasks of the church is to evange-
lie the world, to carry the good
news of salvation to the ends
of the earth. Christ commissioned
the early disciples to carry the
gospel to all the people, saying,
GO We into all the world, and
preach the gospel to every crea-
ture." And again He said, "And
this gospel of the kingdom shall
be preached in all the world for
witness unto all nations; and
then shall the end come" Some
one has said, 1.-THE church must
evangelize or fossilize." This e.
Evangelism is to be carried on from
the pulpit by the minister. 1t is
to be carried on by every organi-
cation in the church, the Sunday
School, the Woman's Auxiliary;
and by the officers, the Sunday
School teacher, and by every in
dividual in the church. No church
can rightly be called church
that is not making an effort to
lead souls to a saving knowledge
of the Lord Jesus Christ.
2. The ministry of teaching. Not
only is the church called upon to
preach, but to teach also. For
teaching is a definite part of the
Gre eat Commission. Teaching
them to observe all things what
soever I have commanded you"
And we find Peter writing,
Wherefore I will not be negli-
gent to put you always in remem-
brance of these things though We
know them. and be established in
the present truth" Every minister
ought to be also a teaching min
ister. A large part of the teaching
of the church is carried
on by the Sunday School or prob
ably a better term would be
Bible School.
3. The ministry of healing. Min
lstry to the sick had large place
in the life of our Lord. He healed
the sick, the lame, the halt and
gave sight to the blind. Not only
did Jesus give much of His time
and energy to the sick, but passed
some of His miraculous healing
power on to the twelve apostles.
The church has always given
much effort in ministry to the
sick. Physicians and hospitals
have a large place in present day
mission programs.
4. Ministry of relief. Christ
said, For We have the poor al
ways with you" There is no
denying the fact that we have the
poor with us today. Jesus had
warm place in His heart for the
poor and His ministry found
ready response in their heart.
Ministry to the poor and needy
has always found a ready re-
Spouse in the hearts of those who
follow in the steps of the Master.
Whose hath this worlds good,
and seeth his brother have need,
and Shutteth up his bowels of

Cards Ready 10 Use
Riverside Stadium
For Track Meet
March IA Event Plans
Revised After UIine
Terms Are Rejected

Catholic University's annual in
door track meet was headed for
Riverside Stadium today as a re-
suit of the breakdown of negotia-
tions for the use Of Uline Arena.
Dorsey Griffith. Cardinal track
coach and director of the games
conferred with Severine Leoffler
Riverside owner, and Raoul LeMat,
plant superintendent, last week and
they are believed to have reached an
agreement for staging the meet
March IA, as originally planned.
Catholic U. officials decided
against Uline when Manager Lee
Perrin Is alleged to have informed
them they would have to stand the
expense of putting down the track
as we'll as paying for all help, such
as ticket sellers, ticket takers, etc.,
in addition to giving the arena a
percentage of the gate receipts. This
would have raised the ante almost
$4OO and neither Griffith nor other
Brooklanders believed the boost
justified.
The meet probably will be the
only one staged here this winter
inasmuch as no more has been
heard Of the proposed second an
nual Washington A. A. games which
also were held at Uline last year.
Riverside will offer a track IL laps
to the mile instead Of IL. as at Uline
seating capacity for the games will
be lowered from 5000 to 5000. and
athletes probably Will have to run In
flats, or spikeless shoes, but Griffith
Is confident the affair still will
attract both fans and athletes.
A final decision In the matter will
be made within the next few days
after LeMat, who supervised the
building of the Uline track, makes a
preliminary survey for the River
side running strip, but to all outward
appearances all obstacles have been
cleared away and the meet definitely
is In.

that Second BasemAn Gerald Prlddy,

his infield probably would include

"Priddy is a mich better hitter

Joe asserted, "anC he should be
