HOOD'miVFR GLACIER, THUKSDAY, AUGUST 11, 1910 PREACHERS TALK CHURCH UNION (Continued From First Paqe.) into daily life, this indicates the dis tinction between the exercises of the sanctuary and that should be legiti mately designated service of Christ. The church worship answers that call of our natures for stimulation to the performance of everyday duties. The service of Christ is tersely described by James in his Epistle. "Pure relig ion and undeliled before God and the Father is this to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction and keep yourself unsnotted from the world. This text suggesting the general ex pression of good will and helpfulness. To the rendering of Christian service rnultinlieitv of organizations is one cr 'at. nhstacle. In the first tdace it t:ikes so much enerirv to keep the different societies going that nothing is left for service. It takes so much effort to run the enirine as to leave nothiner for the machinery of service, Again: In the strenuous endeavor to maintain existence things are done which injure confidence, rather than inspire. The desiro for members, at times, becomes so pronounced as to lead to questionable methods for the securing of additional helpers even to the point of occasional proseiyiing in its ingenuously hidden forms and the sacred revival service has come to be looked upon and not altogether without cause as a means for the increasing of the church roll. These and other deflections from strict Christian ethics, are, however, more the result of un fortunate conditions than of defective Chistian character. Further than these the multitude of organizations stands in the way of high class exercises There are not enough singers to go around ; competent teachers of Sunday School are not available, and the work of the ministers not to clear cut and helpful as if he had the larger inspira tion. His time is used to disadvantage and his office not properly regarded. And lastly 1 would mention the urea ing up of social circles as a diBadvan tuire of no small imnort. Now the question is "What Will We Do About ltr When we meditate on the history of loading denominations we appreciate their existence on ac count of the circumstances which1 brought them forth. At the same time we reulize that in many instances conditions of origin have subsided. But we also realize that during the existence of the several denominations large investments in missionary and educational endeavor have been made Hnd important responsibilites taken. These must be taken care of. This suggests that the process of getting together must be one if amalgamation rather than of absorption of one organ ization by another. Local denomina tions can in many instances satisfac torily combine for worship and service and still retain their independence so far as outside connection is concerned. If we would have effective religious life in Hood Uiver something like this miiHt be done. It is not any principle which would need to be sacrificed in this corning together which constitutes the serious question of the present but the principle which is continuously be ing sacrificed by remaining as we are. In our locality two or more denomina tions could go together choosing, a name of local significance and under it putting the names of the constituent societies. In the conditions which con front us nothing could be lost by the attempt and any unoccupied bulidings would stand as a monument to a sane experiment.
