ia the religion of

and its historic:il development as a

in the conviction that Jesus

not dead, but living.
His mystic presence in the souIh
of men is what hint kept the faith
alive, und has given to the gospel
its continued power in redemption.
How did this conviction that Jenus

MINNEAPOLIS, March 14. (P)
A man who, as n confessed criminal
and an undesirable, left Minneapolis
31! years ngo hy order of the police,
recently returned, a convert to
Christianity, and a leader in welfare
and criminal rehabilitation work; He
is John Callahan, superintendent of
I ladley Rescue hall, famous rescue
mission in the Howery. New York,
nnd chnploin nf the Tombs prison.
Conditions surrounding the man's
departure from Minneapolis and his
subsequent return, according to Cal
lahan himself, offer u great, con
trast. I h-iven from this city in its
infant days as a convict "too crooked
to, tend bar" and as a confessed
thief, Callahan on his return found
Minneapolis paying homage to him
in almost unprecedented manner.
Callnhaii spent one week Jiere, and
was swamped with visits and mes
saires from Minneapolis' 1 eliding men
and women.
