D. dale, who wa to have pro- touted tho topic. "Tho Duty of the Church to the Man Outalde," waa not able to bo proton, and Judge H. L. llenson took hi place. Judge Ben son' remark conveyed the following fact: There ought not to be any man out side tho church. If the church mem ber nttends merely aa a matter of duty; If his worship la without Ufa or Interest; if hi religious life con taint no test, the stranger who cornea la discouraged and .will not bother the church again with hla attendance. doorae J. Walton presented the subject, "The Duty of the Man Out side to tho Church." Hla thought were that It I generally admitted that tho church Is n necessity to the com munity. All letters to the Chamber of Commerce contain one Inquiry ask ing what churrhea are In the town. The strange thing I that n man will admit tho valuo of the church, believe In God, rocelvo the benefit of church life, and not Identify himself with the organisation. Hla duty toward the church Is a positive, not a negative attitude. W. A. Dolxoll spoke upon the topic of "Brotherhood." He cited Instance within his own observation where Chrlstlon men banded themselves to cether In communities (or definite Christian work, and reached nearly every man In the community by the simple motto, "Get right with God." Ho nresented a nlan whereby the men of Klamath Fall, without regard to denomination, might do effective Christian work Sunday afternoons In outlying districts, aa well as In tho city. All tho speeches were to the polut nmi unit effective, and after the ser vice, during the aoclal half hour on ovory sldo expressions were beard to the effect thnt It had been a most nrofitahle evening.
