THE PULPIT.
A BRILLIANT SUNDAY SERMON BY
u DR, CURTIS LEE LAWS.
Theme: Men in the Church,
A : {
‘Brooklyn, N. Y.—Dr. Curtig Lee
Laws, the new pastor of the Greene
Avenue Baptist Church, Sunday night
preached a special sermon to: men.
The service was held under the
auspices of the Men’s League of the
church. In the ceurse of his address
he said some very strong things. .The
subject was “Why There Ara More
Women Than Men in the Church.”
He took no text, but at once vigorous
ly took up his theme. He said:
It is not a fact that our churches
are not reaching men in our day and
in our city. We are reaching men;
we are reaching men in large num
bers and men from all classes of so
ciety. But it is a fact that we are not
reaching men in the same pronortion
and to the same number as we are
reaching women. This is a fact, and
it is a fact to which we cannot be in
nocently indifferent. We must meet
the situation fairly, and if the fault
is in the church we must remove it.
Here are facts which no one will
dispute. Fully two-thirds of the
church members of our country are
women and more than two-thirds of
the people in the church congregation
are women. I doubt very much if we
have in Brooklyn a single church with
more than thirty-three per cent. of
men in its membership. This is a
startling fact when we come to con
sider it, and it becomes more start
ling still if church membership bears
any relation to the question of salva
tion. Few will claim that a man must
be a member of some church to be
saved, but all will agree that the‘
church is the place for saved men,
and that, generally speaking, saved
men are in the church. ‘
Why, then, is it, that with all our
equipment and zeal, we are not able
to reach men in the same proportion
as we reach women? Why is it that
only a third of our membership are
men, and that, relatively speaking,
we have so few men in our congrega
tlons? Personally I love men. I re
joice in their society and fellowship,
and I do my best to interest them in
Christianity and the church, and yet,
broadly speaking, we have the same
conditions in our church that prevail
everywhere else. I come to the study
of this question with a great deal of
personal interest and after a great
deal of thought.
It is claimed by specialists who
have studied this question that the
reason why men are not attracted to
the church in larger numbers is that
the ministry of the modern church is
not strong enough intellectually to
satisfy men of culture and education.
This is practically the ground taken
by a writer in a famous article pub
lished in one of our magazines. After
talking with hundreds of young men
the writer came to the conclusion that
“The modern pulpit is sluggish and
stagnant,” and that young men ab
sent themselves from church simply
because the average minister is dull
and heavy and behind the times.
Are the men who do not attend
church brainier, more intelligent or
more cultured than the men who do
attend church? I wofilfiflke to see
the men who do not attend church
‘placed upon the south side of one of
our streets and the men who do at
tend church placszd upon the north
side of the same street. Then I would
Jdike to driye slowly along the street
‘between these two groups that I
‘might study their faces. On which
side do you think I would find the
‘brains and the culture, and the re
finement and the character?
Again, when non-churchgoing men
prate about the uninteresting preach
ers, I always feel that they are cast
ing needless insults into the teeth of
their mothers and daughters and
‘wives and sweethearts. Women read
‘more than men, and except about po
litical and commercial questions they
are better informed than men. Not
withstanding their higher culture and
‘their greater refinement, the women
,do not find the sermons of the average
preacher dull and inconsequential.
. Again, it is claimed that the
‘churches don’t seek the men nor wel
.come them to the services as they
should. Now, personally, Ido not be
lieve a word of this.. I have been for
years very closely identified with the
.church life of a great city, and I have ‘
‘been in close personal relations with
‘a greath many of our ministers, and I
.tell you that the whole Christian
church is making a mighty effort to
.reach the unchurched men of the city.
And wanting them as much as we do,
it is nonsense to talk about not wel
coming them. I have heard that in a
-certain section of Maine there is a
church which has out in the vestibule
‘a nickel-in-the-slot machine. All that
a stranger has to do is to walk in and
drop in his nickel and out from the
machine comes a hand to grasp his in
cordial welcome. We do not have
anything like that here, hut we can
beat that in our church, for here
many a stranger gets a hearty hand
grasp and goes away with his nickel
in his pocket.
I tell you that men are welcome in
our churches; men, irrespective of the
accident of fine clothing; men, how
ever dressed and however wicked;
they are all welcome in nine-tenths
of the churches; and what is more,
they know quite well they will not
ounly be welcome, but that we are
praying that they may come. Let us
glance now at some of the real rea
sons why men do not come to our
churches and into our churches, as
their sisters do.
Men are driven go hard by the*work
of the week that when Sunday comes
many of them are in a state of col
lapse mentally, and so they spend the
time in bed, or else they betake them
selves to the parks or to the country
for recuperation.
I know many men who are commit
ting a slow suicide by the work which I
they are attempting to do, and I know
that when Sunday eomes they snatch
a little rest as their only safety, I
feel that in some way they must get
out from under the burden which
they are bearing, some by choicz and
more by necessity or else while taking
care of this life they will by sheer
neglect lose the life which is to come. i
Now, women, on the other hand, have 1
their-work for the most part in the
bouse, and they welcome the Sabbath 1
day and the church services as a kind !
of mild ertertainment and pleasant
diversion. There they see their
friends and have a pleasant word, but
the men have been seeing their
friends all the week, and now they
want simply rest.
Men have many things in their
lives which furnish them with social
life, and with a little balm.for thsir
sore consciences. Tens of thousands
of men belong to clubs and societies
and lodges. Here they spend their
leisure time and spare money, and
many of them will single out the
charitable features of these organiza
tions, and will say that their lodge is
their church, inculcating all that is |
good and beautiful. When any man
allows any human society to take the |
piace of the church of God in his life,
that society has become to him a posi- |
tive evil, and he ought at once to rec
ognize it as a snare of the devil.
These societies do good in their way,
but in comparison with the church of
God they are as a rush light to a star
of the first magnitude, as a firefly to
the sun in all his glory and splendor.
I blame these societies for keeping |
many men out of the reach of the
Gospel, for they try to teach men that
morals are as acceptable as religion,
and many men are giving a blind al
legiance to these human institutions
and at the same time believing that
they are serving Almighty God. Men |
‘also have politics to interest them,‘
and during a political contest it seems
iutterly out of the question to interest
‘the ordinary man in anything else
‘than a political discussion. Women
‘have few societies, and, thank
fHeaven, they have no part in politics.
~ Men are more enamored of certain
forms of overt sin than women, and
the devil, through these forms of sin,
is winning many men away from all |
the influences of the church of Christ.
Gambling and drunkenness are the
sins of men, and while some women
also fall into these two classes of sin,
they are the exception rather than
the rule. In many of our American
cities we have one legalized place for
the sale of liquor to every fifty of our
men, and we cannot tell, nor do the
authorities seem to care, how many
gambling places there are in our fair
city. But all of these places live
largely upon the patronage of men.
Now, is it strange that we have so
few men comparatively in our
churches? Men are far more in the
clutches of overt sin than women,
and that fact must be reckoned with
when you count up the men in the
churches. God pity the great host of
men in our city who have sold them
selves body and soul to the devil, and
‘who have no care about righteousness
‘here nor felicity hereafter. ;
Society places a premium upon the
irreligiousness, if not upon the posi
tive unrightousness, of men by per
‘mitting the double standard of mor- |
als. Men do with impunity what a
‘woman could not do at all if she de
sired to remain respectable in the es- |
timation of her family and friends.
Now, so long as society, composed in |
part of Christian people, permits men |
to be libertines and drunkards, and
‘does not make them smart for their
sins, these same men will have but
little regard for religion. How can
‘we expect the libertine to have any
respect for religion when he is made
the welcome guest in the house
‘where, if the people lived up to their
‘religion, he would be loathed?
- How can we expect sinful men to
come into the church and give up
‘their sins, when the men and women
‘with whom they associate do not dis
count them in the least because of the
lives that they lead? How different
with women. They must be pure to
be respectable; they must not fall
once into the sin in which their hus
bands and brothers riot, for if they
do they will be scourged out of soci
ety. I tell you men and women of
Brooklyn, the social order in which
we live puts a premium upon the vice
of men. We are responsible to the
}extent of our influence. I plead with
the fathers and mothers to protect
their daughters. Be as willing that
your son should marry a fallen woman
as that your daughter should marry
a fallen man. T plead with the Chris
tian men before me to refuse their in
timate friendship to impure men, and
under no circumstances to allow im
pure men the privilege of social equal
ity in your homes. Not until Chris
tian men take some such stand will
‘the men of our generation realize the
§enormity of social sin.

Every Man by Himself,
~ God beholds thee individually, who
ever thou art. “He calls thee by thy
name,” He sees thee and understands
thee. He knows what is in thee, all
thy own peculiar feelings and
thoughts, thy dispositions and likings,
thy strength and thy weakness. He
views thee in thy day of rejoicing and
thy day of sorrow. He sympathizes
in thy hopes and in thy temptations;
He interests Himself in all thy anx
ieties and thy remembrances, in all
the risings and fallings of thy spirit.
He compasses thee round, and bears
thee in His arms; He takes thee up
and sets thee down.
Thou dost not love thyself better
than He loves thee. Thou canst not
shrink from pain more tpan He dis
likes thy bearing it; and if He puts it
on thee, it is as thou wilt put it on
thyself, if thou art wise, for a greater
good afterwards.—J. H. Newman.
To Live We Must Grow.
Are there not some of us who have
been trying a good while to get back
an old experience? If we succe.ded
we should only be where we were,
and if we are only going to geét
where we were we have abandoned
the law of progress and begun the
downward retrogression.
God has Himself withered, by His
own consuming breath, the flower and
fragrance of your former joys, that
He may lead you into something bet
ter. Let your old experience go and
take the living, everlasting Christ in
stead.

A Century of Stone Coal. |
Wilkesbarre today celebrates the
centennial of anthracite. Special hon
iors will be paid to the memory of
Judge Jesse Fell, the Wyoming valley
‘pioneer, who on February 11, 1808,
‘at the village tavern, showed how
“stone coal” could be burned in an
open grate,
An Indian massacre of unusual
atrocity, a poem and the reputation
of being one of nature’'s garden spots
fix the Wyoming valley in the popular
mind. It is otherwise entitled to fame
as a source of matienal wealth far
exceeding the product of California
gold fields or African diamond mines,
Twelve years after KFell's discovery
only 365 tons of hard ¢oal were ship
ped from the mines in a year. Now
there is an annual output of 72,000,
000 tons, with a value at
the mines of $166,000,000. All
the gold mined in the United
States in 19¢6 was worth but §94,000,-
000. The Pennsylvania anthracite
fields cover 470 square miles and in
clude fifteen seams. The industry em«
ploys 145,000 men, How long will the
supply last at the present rate of
yield? Probably 100 years, accord
fng to conservative estimates.
By thav time the 630,000,000 tons of
anthracite in the Shengi regions of
China may have become available for
American use, if no new ‘yellow
peril” occurs to prevent. But the
certainty of the ultimate exhaustion
of the Pennsylvania fields makes al
the more obligatory measures of econ
omy in production and the correction
where possible of the eriminal waste
of the past.—New York World,
