Practice Christianity,
Friends Conference Told
BY the Associofed Press

CAPE MAY, N. j., June 90
The geratest contribution of
Quakerism to the world today may
be in focusing thought on the
need to live Christianity, Alexan-
der C. Purdy, professor Of New
Testament at Hartford Theologi-
cal Seminary, said last night.
He spoke at the opening session
of the biennial Friends General
Conference attended by more than
2, 500 members of the Society Of
Friends from all parts of the
United States.
"While Christians differ widely
in what their faith is and how it
shall be expressed, all agree that
religion should be lived. It cannot
be identified with ritual and cere-
monial but should produce cor
respondence between faith and
practice" Mr.. Purdy added.
