class had organized for the study of Old 
‘Testament history and the membership 
had “increased from 15 to 38.°° Miss 
Emma Prest reported that the enroll- 
-ment of the Philathea class had grown to 
22, 
After the reports had been presented 
“a few were called upon for remarks. 
Dea. Robert Baker spoke on ‘‘Our 
Greater Sunday School,’’ which he char- 
acterized asthe nursery of the greater 
church. He made a plea for larger at- 
tendance of church membership in the 
school and substantiated his plea by bibli- 
cal selections. 
Dr. W. H. Tyler responded to the 
subject ‘‘How to Hold tne Boy.’’ The 
secret of success in reaching boys and 
young men, he claimed, was to become 
interested with them in the things in 
which they were interested, and thus be- 
come as one of them. 
Dea. T. B. Stone was called upon to 
speak on “‘ Our Greater Church’ He 
defined the c! urch from a biblical stand- 
point as a body of belivers in Christ who 
had accepted him as their Savior. “(he 
greater church could be either numeri- 
cally or spiritually considered, but that 
all should strive for the spirituality of the 
church. ‘The church would be spiritu- 
ally what each individual made it. The 
pastor of the church was not his pastor 
only, but of each and every person that 
attended the church, and all should strive 
to support him as such, that the spir- 
ituallity of the church might be felt in the 
community. 
Charles H. Fleming of Salem, 
form- 
erly a member of the Manchester church, 
spoke in a reminiscent vein. He spoke 
of his first “coming™to “Manchester aad 
how he and Mrs. Fleming had always 
felt this.was their church home and they 
were always pleased to came back here; 
He recalled some of the familiar faces 
that had-been pillars of the-church, but 
who were now at rests. He _ often 
thought of a saying of Rev. Mr. Lam=- 
son: ‘* Youcan gauge the breadth of a 
man by the breadth of: his prayers,”” 
which he repeated i in comparison to our 
activity in mission work. He urged a 
study of missions. We havea million 
people coming to our shores yearly, he 
said, and they are only samples of the 
millions they leave behind. He referred 
to the layman’s m'ssion conference being 
held in.Boston the past week and the 
great movement among layman for a 
world spread conqrest In ovr country 
there are ste ministers reaching 50 
million people In the missi n_ field 
there are 13.( 0) ) mission workers reach- 
ing 325 m lion, and just think of the 
675 mllion unr ached.
