WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, MAY 16, 1925 Richards Likens Clureh to a Great Power House Rev. James Austin Richards gave his first talk to the Winnetka " Sunday Evening club last Sunday ; his subject was "What's right and wrong with the Christian Church." He reversed his title and took up first the possible criticisms of the church. He admitted that the church at times falls short of its own high ideals, but pointed out that this is because it is a human institution, in part, and there- fore not perfect. On the other hand he claimed for the church that it succeeds in three ways: first that it symbolizes Human- ] ity becoming conscious of itself in re- lation to the Eternal, second that it represents ideas, and third that it achieves results. In illustration of this last statement he spoke of the church as a vast power house, which generates spiritual force on every side. The club is looking forward eagerly 4to tomorrow night when Mr. Richards will give his second talk. His subject J will be, "Science and the Bible." The meeting will take place as usual in the Camp Fire room of Community House. Supper will be served at 6:30 o'clock. Exuberant Youth Crosses Path of Mister J.
