November 13-REv. ·GEORGE R. LUNN, D. D., of the Pe~ple's
.. . Church, Schenectady, N. Y., will speak of "J,Vhat Happened in
Scl,eneclady." In many ways this will be the most significant
story ever . told on our platform by the
person chiefly concerned, for it will
trace the steps in Dr. Lunn's personal
development - and incidentally " show
up ;' the way "business" is sometimes
bound up with the church - from the
time wl1en he was pastor of the most
aristocratic and ultra-conservative congregation in his city to the present time,
when he is nt the head of a live body of
worklhg people which meets in a theatre
'n Sundays and all the week stands
■boulder to shoulder with their leader in
bl11plendld fight against g_aft, la w-l1reaking and injustice in the public
r
rvlce• .This is a mighty stirring story. Don't rriiss it.

CHOOSE YE, THIS DAY.

Once to ev'ry man and nation comes thC moment to decide

:ff f EWTintf!f!ITT

1n the s trife of Tn~th with Falsehood, for the good or evil side;
Some great cause, God's new Messiah, offering each the bloom or blight,
And the choice goes by forever 1 lwixt thal darl_ n ess nnd that light.
~
Then to ~hie with Truth is nQble when we share ..h Cr wretched crust,
Ere her cause bring fame and profit and 'tis prosperous to be just.

~EENLAND'S ICY MOUNTAINS ·

Then it. is the brave man chooses, while the co,~ard s tanJ's asidc 1
And th t! mullitudcs make virtue 0;f the faith they had denied.

Frorn Grtcnland's icy mo~rntains,
From lndia.' s coral strand,

New occasions teach new duties ; time makes ancient good uncouth;

\Vhere Alric's sunny fountain.s

They must upward still and onward who would keep abreast of Truth;

Roll down their golder sa nd,

Lo, before us gleam her·lamp fires I we ourselves must pilgrims be 1

From many an ancicn\ river,

Nor attempt lhc Future's portal with the Past's blood rusted key,

From many a palmy plain~
