'OPEN RELIGIOUS FORUM Y Dr. Muckley Announces Innovation for First Christian. .s " , ' In his sermon yesterday morning on "An Innovation and a Larger Gospel for the First Christian Church," Rev. E. 8. Muckley announced and explained ths nature of a plan adopted at. hla sugges tion by. his board of elders to devote at least one Sunday evening each month to an open forum. Dr Muckley has given a plan that - would bridge the chasm aeparatlng - the . "unchurched masses" from ths ohurch much thought. Ha says; ' -. .. " i "We ara separated because we do not understand one another and tha truth. Troth la unifying and conciliatory to those ' who are honestly seeking after truth and Justice. Eellgious denomlna tiona have often used truth as a cudgel to' pound each other with. The same baa been true in large mesjrure .with reference to questions . that are not usually admitted . to . discussion In churches. We have too often knocked each other. My conviction la that all questions relating to tha temporal and apiritual welfare- ef the Individual or the community should be discussed under the auspices of tha church.' We should not debate ..and argue them. which teifds to divide us. but we should enter upon a friendly-discussion of them to see If we . cannot -come , together. Truth should bring all honest folks to gether." -- Dr. Muckley and his church desire to give any honest man seeking she-best things for ths human family a chance to express himself in the First Chrla tlan church. "The man- antagonistic to the'ehudch insists that if be goes to been the preacher discuss a vital theme that he Is sure to get Just a one-aided dlscuslon." .- says Dr. Muckley. "He can't talk . back and ao never gets a chance .to correct his wrong ideas. , la our public forum they will get a chance to talk -back. I am not arratd to have any subject relating to any Interest of men discussed in a friendly and cour teous way. It matters not how radical a man's view msy bs. On ths last Sun day night of each month, therefore, we will have a real open forum. And I In vite the public to suggest themes for these meetings."- : i . , f., --. $ HOW TO BE PURE Dr. B rougher Savs Best Man Morally . , ;ia He With Pure Heart. ;S ' "Ths pure of heart are the clean of heart." said ths Rev.
