The 'lecture' on January 25 will be transitional to a series in February
answering doubts as to the nature of Christ, the value ot churches, the use of
worship and other doubts characteristic of our day.
The lectures will touch real and universal human problems In a straight
forward, concrete and reasonable way. Christianity is primarily a life rather
than a creed. But life may be less useful and happy for lack of religious con
victions ; and a false philosophy of life may ruin a man or a nation.

tion in the world. A few weeks ago, in
discussing the situation with the execu
tive committee, he told them that the
situation in the Caucasus is so desper
ate that unless large funds are secured
at the Christmas and in the February
campaigns no relief workers will be
needed In the .spring only a committee
of grave diggers.'

BAPTISTS WIN IN
VICTORY CAMPAIGN
' 1 -' ;
Six Million Dollar Goal , in Big
Drive Was Reached at Mid
night Dec; 31, Says Message.
Telegraphic announcement was
received in Portland Friday from
the New York headquarters . office
of the Northern -Baptist convention,
stating that the church had com
pleted Its $6,000,001) victory cam
paign . fund by midnight, December
31, 1919, and that they now laid
claim to the $2,000,000 promised by I
John D. Rockefeller. This gives the
Baptists a fund of 18,000,000 to use
for home and foreign mission work.
This announcement, was made by
Dr. O. C. Wright, executive .secre
tary of the Oregon Baptist state con
vention. Last May, at the annual meeting of
the convention, Mr. Rockefeller prom
ised a gift of $2,000,000 provided the
church completed Its 86,000,000 campaign
by the end of the year. This gift also
provides that $1,000,000 shall go to the
home mission society and the other mil
lion to the foreign missionary society of
the denomination.
Since making this conditional gift, Mr..
Rockefeller has also made an uncondi
tional gift of $2,000,000 to the ministers'
and missionaries' benefit board. The
above mentioned 810,000,000 Is entirely
over and above the money raised for
local missionary enterprises within the
various states. By- adding the local
gifts to the .$10,000,000 the amount given'
during the past year by the denomina
tion for missionary work would make a
total of approximately $25,000,000.
Meeting's Will Continue
The "Holy Ghost" meetings started
last Sunday at the Church of God. Union
avenue and Falling streets, will con
tinue each night during the coming two
weeks, according to an announcement
made by the Rev. H. Neal, pastor.
