EPWORTHIANS TO
; HAVE THEIR PART
Dr. Guthrie, General Secretary,
Explains Work Assigned' Young
People in Centenary Drive
The Epworth leagues of the nation are
to have a part in the Methodist Centen
ary movement. ; This was the encourag
ing note sounded to the young people of
Portland Thursday night at First Meth
odist church by their chief executive.
Dr. Charles-E. Outhrie, of. Chicago, gen
eral secretary of the Epworth leagues of
the. Methodist church. ,
To push this work 20 area Epworth
league secretaries have been appointed
to cover the nation. Dr. Guthrie had
hardly made ' this statement before he
heard the question, "Are we going to
have one? "Yes," came back the reply.
"The Northwest Epworth league centen
ary secretary," said Dr. Guthrie, "is to
be Rev. J. Edgar Purdy of Wilbur,
Wash. He is to arrive in Portland in a
few days and will make his headquar
ters here in the centenary office In the
Piatt building." "
After the centenary drive is over Dr.
Guthrie hones to be able to take the
20 area secretaries and teV make them
the head of branch offices of the Ep
worth league, where free leaflets and
helps on league work may be secured
without the present two weeks' delay in
writing to Chicago. This came as a
welcome announcement to Alocal Metho
dist Epworth league leaders.
In speaking of the young people's part
in the centenary drive of the church.
Dr. Guthrie said: "The centenary has
no right to claim all the glory, for they
appropriated the young people's pro
gram as their own. Three of the four
big points of the centenary movement
have been part of the young people's
program for 10 years. They are the
stewardship of prayer, stewardship of
life, and stewardship of money.- We
have been pushing the first through
our comrades of the morning watch
organization, the second through our
life work recruit classes, and the last
through our adoption of the 24-hour day
league and tithing plan."
The Epworth leagues of the nation
have 588,000 members, according to Dr.
Guthrie, and they are expected to give
a minimum of J400.000 each year for
the next five years, or a total of 32,000,
000 of the $105,000,000 drive which the
denomination is making. Dr. Guthrie
said: "We expect to accomplish this
feat by having ,40 per cent of the mem
bership sign up as Christian stewards
and 75 per cent as 24-hour day leaguers."
The general secretary made it plain
to the young people that they must
work In harmony with the church and
not expect to put on a separate centen
ary drive of their own. The leaguers
are to assist the church workers and
have been granted the privilege of writ
ing the words "Epworth League" on

Greater concentration of time, money
and energy has been asked this year
during the Lenten season from church
memberl of almost every denomination
than has been asked for many years in
the past. The great-, reconstruction
problems of the churches are to. be con
sidered in all their , seriousness and
members of the laity. will be asked to
close their offices, and devote their time
to the work of the church the Same as
they closed their office and gave freely
of their time to the causes of liberty
and freedom during the. war.
Several denominations plan special
weekday eerviqes . in their churches
throughout Lent. Prominent among
these are the Catholic. Episcopal and
Lutheran churches.
Special services . will be held each
Wednesday and Friday evening at 7:45
o'clock during Lent at St Marys cathed
ral (Catholic). - - .

PERSONAL WORKER
CAMPAIGN IS PLAN
Fourteen Teams From First Bap
tist Will Seek to Secure Atterid-
ance of Non-churchgoers.
The call to forward march has been
sounded at the First Baptist church
(White Temple) by Dr. William A. Wal
do, the pastor. Between now and Easter
Sunday a great personal workers' cam
paign Is to be waged by 14 teams, that
is intended to result in a greater effi
ciency and a larger membership for the
church.
Dr, Waldo said : "We are anticipating
a great ingathering. Our field is the
entire city. Christians not yet associated
with any church, and still others who
have not accepted Christ as Savior and
Lord, are Invited to come Into our fold.
It is our desire to make a kind, win
some and powerful appeal to all these
to declare their faith in Christ and unite
wtth the church on or before May 1."
Fourteen teams 6f 10 are being or
ganized, who will pray earnestly and
labor arduously for this ingathering. All
the services of the church will bear
upon this theme, and the Thursday eve
ning, meetings will be times of special
prayer. Five successive Tuesday eve
nings will be devoted to cottage prayer
meetings throughout the city. Dr. Waldo
hopes that this campaign will be fol
lowed by a great revival meeting in
May,' when a special evangelist may be
secured. Letters announcing these plans
have been mailed to every member of
the -church.
. Dr. Waldo announces a series of eve
ning discourses leading up to Easter, on
the general theme, "In the Shadow of
the Cross, or the Seven Last Words of
Jesus." The subjects will be as follows.
March 9, "The Forgiveness of the
Cross;" March 16, "The Absolution ofi
the Cross ;" March 23, "The Legacy of
the Cross;" March 30, "The Sacrificial
Cry of the Cross ;" April 6. "The Anguish
of the Cross ;" April 13, "The Complete
ness of the Cross ;" April 20, "The Peace
of the Cross." These addresses will be
taken up In the light of the present day
sacrifices and the larger sacrifice of the
Christ to humanity.
The temple quartet will render each
night special and appropriate music in
keeping with the subjects announced.
Eev. Mr. WiUard
To Preach Sunday

"VICTORY CAMPAIGN" NAME
City Director Rev. F. C. Laslette
. Describes' Purpose to Better
World in Way War Failed To.
Sunday, March 16,; Northern Baptist
laymen will start their campaign to
raise $6,000,000, which funds they in- ,
tend to use toward i Insuring spiritual
democracy at home and rehabilitation
work abroad. This campaign Is known
as the "Victory campaign." Rev. V. a.
Laslette. city director, said In describ
ing the work t "The great Victory cam
paign has been launched by the seven
million Baptists of America as a drive
toward ; 100 per cent efficiency along '
moral, spiritual Intellectual and social,
lines at home and abroad. It is for the
betterment of. the whole world in ways
that the war failed to accomplish."
If, this drive is successful the leaders
of the church In New York have pre
dieted the following results : "It means
that churches which have been slightly
damaged m ill be repaired ; churches that
have been totally destroyed will be re
built : the rehabilitation of Baptist pas
tors and . families ; the construction of
chapels at Strategic locations in rebuilt':
districts; the relief of Christian families
or whom government provision is, not,;
sufficient ; and special provision for or
phans, widows and disabled soldiers."
. The Victory campaign is a laymen's
movement, and although the clergy aro
not excused from active part, they are
not supposed to shoulder the burden.
Kvery church In the Northern Baptist
convention has been effectively organ
ized by - laymen and great things are
expected between March 16 and the end
of the month, when the entire fund
must be raised. Ilarley Hallgren, state
president of the Baptist Young People's
union. Is state director of the Victory
campaign. He is the youngent man In

gram for any of the denominations.
