IMPORTANT EVENI
IS SCHEDULED TO
BEGIN ON JAN. 20
-Plans for New Era Conference at
First Presbyterian Church Are
Now Weil Under Way.
MANY EXPECTED TO COME
m
Invitations Have Been Sent to
- Ministers and Members in Ore
gon and Parts of Washington.
Plans for the great Presbyterian New
Era conference, to be held In the First
Presbyterian church. January 20 and 21,
are well under way and present indica
tions are that the meeting will be one
of the most important Presbyterian
Catherines ever held in the Northwest.
Invitations have gone out not only to
every Presbyterian minister and church
In the state--of Oregon, but also to those
in Southern and Western Washington.
It is expected that representative Pres
byterian churchmen from this wide ter
ritory will attend the Portland confer-
eince.
: It is a distinct disapBPintment to local
leaders that Charles Alexander, the fa
mous, evangelistic singer, will not be
able to attend. It Ib probably due to
-the death of J. Wilbur Chapman, with
whom he was associated for so many
years, that he has cancelled the Port
land engagement. Nevertheless, the per
sonnel of the visiting church team is
noteworthy. Among the prominent
workers in the church expected at the
conference are : Rev. J. Frank Smith,
moderator of the general assembly;
. John A. Marquis of the homo mission
board, Rev. John It. Davis, Miss Mar
garet Hodge, Miss Edna It. Voss, Mrs.
Guy W. Davis and Miss M. Josephine
Petris. The addition of the women to
the team insures local women that they
will have a part in this new movement
commensurate with the service which
they have rendered the church and the
world in bringing In the new age.
Mr. Marquis, who is on the team, was
recently made general secretary of the
Presbyterian board of home missions
and is in charge of the entire home
mission work of the church. Prior to
that time, he was president of Coe col
lege, Iowa. Rev. Mr. Davia recently ac
cepted the general secretaryship of the
board of ministerial sustentation and
relief, which is in the process of rais
ing a fund of $10,000,000 to care for
disabled and aged Presbyterian minis
ters. He was formerly pastor of Beth
lehem church in Philadelphia.

open forum. Sunday evening at 7 :45, at
the Unitarian chapel, Broadway and

will be John Gill, a member of the legis
lature from Multnomah county. Many

Soldiers in Camps
'Letters from home to the soldiers at
Camp Lewis have fallen ofjJA per cent
since the signing of the armistice, ac
cording to the statement made Thurs
day evening by Rev. A. Anderson
at Our Savior's Lutheran church. Rev.
Mr. Anderson is Lutheran camp pastor
at Camp Lewis. He gave two addresses
in Portland on Thursday on work among
soldiers. Mr. Anderson said : "The boys
still need encouragement, but the peo
ple seem to have forgotten them now
that the laurels have been won. For
some reason public interest has ceased.
After the boys have won a great victory,
those who were left at home in peace
are now refusing to help keep up the
morale of those who now have nothing
to do but drill."
Rev. M. A. Christensen, pastor of the
church where the lectures were held.
said Friday that he found similar con
ditions to exist a Vancouver barracks.
He cited as instance of where one
young man, who is lying sick in bed,
only received one letter from home dur
ing the Christmas season and that was
from his little brother. His parents and
older brothers neglected to send him a
word of cheer, even though he is sick
with a disease which may keep him bed
fast for many years.

COURSE PLANNED
4 YEARS AHEAD
-v. L,,.
International: Association Has
Sent to Societies Throughout
World Lessons to Be Studied.
WELL PLANNED SYSTEM USED
Idea That Studying of Bible Is
Done Haphazardly -Has Long
Been Contrary to tFacts.
A four year course of Sunday school
lessons has been adopted for use In the
schoola of the nation by all denomina
tions and is now being sent out by tha
International Sunday School association
to Sunday schools throughout the world.
This course of study for Sunday schools
has been planned In the same careful
manner In which a graded course in
arithmetic or grammar is planned for
the public school children by a com
mittee on education. In addition to the
four year course . another four year
course for the years 1921 to 1925 has
uwn urawn up and ts now awaiting tha
ratification of the Sunday school com
mittees of each denomination that Is a
member, ef the international association.
Theffoor year course is divided Into
three, six and nine month periods, each
of which cover a upedlfio line of Bihl
stories. Fdr Instance, one . period takes
'up the lives of the patriarchs, another a
BUidy Into the lives of "the apostles and
a thIrd a study of the social teachings
of Jesus. The four year coursn now In
operation started In January t 1918. The
first six months was a study In the gos
pel of Mark and the next three months
were studies In the Christian life.
Beginning with last September and
continuing until March, the course out
lines a study In the lives of the patri
arch from Abraham to the settlement of
Canaan. Following Is the adopted Sun
day school program for the next three
years :
April to September. 1310 : Some great
teachings of the Bible.
October. 1919, to March, 1920: Studies
in the lives of Peter and John.
April to September. 1920: Early lead
ers and kings of Israel.
October, 1920, to March. 1921 : The gos
pel of the kingdom of heaven; studies
in Matthew. ,
April to June, 1921: Social teachings
of the Bible.
July to December. 1921: Life and let
ters of Paul.
While the International Sunday School
association has been systematically
choosing Sunday school topics for about
40 years, many Sunday school workers
are not aware of the fact. The eonnrsi
impression of the average Sunday school
worker Is found to be that the lesson
subjects are chosen at random by inter
national leaders. This Is-brought about
probably by the fact that only the lead
ing workera In the Sunday school have
been able to know in the past the
Hat of subjects beyond a three month
period, or a quarter. A largo booklet
containing the yearly courses for the'
coming three years has been Issued by
the International lesson committee, of
which Professor Ira M. Prtce Is secre
tary. These lists may be had by any
worker now who desires to purchase
them. x
