SALEM, OREGON, Dr. Ira Landrith Will Speak in Salem on Tuesday Evening It is announced by Marion County Christian Endeavor Union that Rev. Ira Landrith, D. D., LL. D.. of Chicago, the Citizen ship Superintendent of the Inter national Society of Christian En deavor, will speak in Salem, Tuesday. January 24th, at seven- thirty o'clock. The. meeting will be held In the First Christian Church. Dr. Ira Landrith, who gete bis mall In Chicago, but who is at home in every one of the forty eight states, has been one of the outstanding platform figures of the country for more than twen ty-five years. He has been one of the champions of moral re form, devoting his brilliant tal ents principally to the battles for prohibition, woman suffrage, and interdenominational fellowship among the churches. One phase of Dr. Landrith's public activity has been his In terest in the youth of America. Officially, he holds the title of Citizenship Superintendent of the International Society of Christian Endeavor, and be Is a favorite leader among young people of many denominations. His "p8 ent speaking engagements, na tion-wide In their scope, are un der the auspices of the local Christian Endeavor societies and union, but his sudiences are us ually composed of men and wo men of all walks of life and with varied beliefs and connections. Typical of Dr. Landrith's pun gent statements are the follow Ing: "Better be right than regu lar, decent than democratic, re spectable than republican, and It is hard to be both all the time." "Be fit to live and i fit to live with." "The Church Sis God's or ganized omnipotence-1 on earth; and it could do what it would if would do what it could." The McConnelsville (Ohio) Herald says of him: "Dr. Land rith is unsurpassed In eloquence and power. The speaker pleased everybody. Many said it was the best address they had ever heard. As an oration, independent of the subject, the address was a mas terpiece. Dr. Landrith is an or ator of Southern type with a splendid voice and a pleasing per sonality, which fascinates and captivates at the same time that It convicts and convinces." - Preceding the evening program there will be a banquet at six thirty o'clock. Tickets will be on sale at the church. H. The local Christian Endeavor leaders and the county Union of ficers are making active prepar ations to make this one of the largest rallies In the history of the work.
