l.asl evening Leader had a very
tlnniy und nppiopilale aiilcie on the
need of the cti-opciatlou ot the olelgy
nnd the proas. Wo tepilnt It, as fol
lows: "It has often been retnaikcd that
mun. of lite clctgy arc lemlss In not
using the picas to a gieater extent In
ptomtilgatlng the tenets of their faith
nnd movements In the icliglous world.
We have known ministers who arfectcd
to belittle the tiforls of newspapers to
luiptme the moinl condition of society:
but It Is well known that the piess
gencially is doing a gieat woik In up
lifting men Irani thu ways of sin nnd
druiniliition: Indeed, they aie willing
to do much moro If they can have the
help of the clergy.
"In these days owuvbody reads Iho
papers add they naturally look for
complete intelligence in legard to all
movements which iulliienco public sen
timent and boar upon tho welfare of
the community. Il would be a dull
wotld weie it not lor the constant
stream ol news happenings detailed in
the public, pi ess. Many minds aie
stlned by what they lead and hem
ot tho niaicii of incuts In this tapid
age, and no small piopoition ot rcud
cis and he.uoi.s lake a deep Inteiest In
the piumotion of religious It nth and
l he moral advancement of the human
lace.
"A minister who was interviewed on
Ibis subject letently spoke stiongly as
to the iniluoiice ot the press in dissem
inating icllgioiis intelligence. He said:
'Many cleigyineu sin in lemainlng
asleep lo tho oppoi tunilies ofteicd
them lor spi calling tho pilnclples of
iighteousness through the public press.
We aie to publish the glad tidings, and
II we can only leach hundieds by the

louinal. AW cannot go out to the
blgw.ns and hedges, but the newspa
peis i a n. and tliej win take our mes

devil has the ear of the world. We
should be awake to get tor God as
huge an audience as we i.in. He will
hold us accountable it we lemaiu asleep
and keep the people slumbei lug.' "
