What Christians Ought To Know The mid-week meeting has always been one of the strong features of the Wilmette Baptist church. Where- as the statistics compiled by the ex- perts of the church efficiency agree that an attendance of a group equal to 1/10 of the resident membership is generally considered encouraging, the average attendance in the local church at these meetings from Sep- tember to June last year was nine- teen per cent. The nature of the pro- grams at these meetings has varied from week to week as the immediate tasks in which the church was en- gaged presented themselves. During the month of October and thereafter at frequent intervals the topics for prayer and discussion at these mid- week meetings will be grouped un- der the heading, "What Christians Ought to Know". Some will be pre- sented by the pastor, some will take the form of a symposium, some will be brought out by debates and in certain cases outside speakers who are authorities on the subject at hand will address the meeting. Among the topics that will receive consider- ation during the year wilt be, The Religions of America. Evangelical Protestantism in Eu- rope. The Mood of Asia. The Religion of Cox and Harding. Types of Evangelism. Ecclesiastical Architecture. The Best Books /or Devotional Bible Study. Zionism. The Negroâ€"What shall we do for Him? The Christian and the Immigrant. The Bible With Our Children in the Home. After the Interchurchâ€"What? Who are Our Great Religious headers today? Christianity and Industry. Religion's Use of the Moving Picture. The Bible and the Public School. , Varieties in Method of Bible fctudy. Denominational Fundamentals and Christian Fundamentals. Wuw should the Church Advertise? A vilescent leakage in the Sunday SchV?' M|/t}ne><Uy Evening Bible Class "Studies in Religious Experience" is what Rev. Francis C. Stifler, pastor of the Raptist church has styled his course in Bible study which he is to give on Wednesday evenings at 7:30 o'clock in Brown Hall just before the mid-week meeting of the church. This class is open to any one in the com- munity who feels the need of Bible study but is unable to regularly at- tend any Sunday school class. To it Mr. Stifler will bring the best fruits of his study and will make every effort to give the treatment the modern and practical application that will make of it more than an academic discussion. The first ses- sion of the class was held on October 6 and was well attended. For the time being the discussions are based on the teachings of the old testament. A Mean Persuader 'Sheriff" Bright of "Rocky Gulch" is very hard with bad boys, but kind to Little Nell. ST. FRANCIS XAVIER PARISH PLANS SCHOOL FUND BAZAAR A bazaar, under the auspices of St. Francis Xavier parish will be held in the Central avenue theater building from November 4 to November 6, 1920 The entire proceeds will go to the school fund, to care for the erection of a modern school building at Ninth street and Linden avenue, in the near future. Plans for the school building are well under way, and it is the inten- tion to start the actual work of con- struction in the spring. Many valu- able articles have been contributed, including an automobile, grapho- phones, watches, jewelry and other miscellaneous articles. The women of the parish are in charge of the booth, and are now completing ar- rangements for the affair. Unusual interest is being taken by all per- sons, and excellent results are ex- pected.
