% United Brethren church is
well represented in the general work
of Christian Endeavor. The Rev. H.
P Shupe. U. r>., and Bishop W. M.
Weekley, r. P., of Dayton, 0., are
trustees of the United Society of
Christian Endeavor. The Rev. .
T. Deever, of Dayton, 0., general
secretary, is one of the special trus
tees representing denominational
Young People's work
The church sprang from the work
of early evangelists in this country,
and especially from the labors of
Philip William Otterbein and of
Martin Boehm. Roehm was a Men
nonite pastor in Pennsylvania, of
Swiss descent. Otterbein came to
America from Prussia In 175.S as a
missionary to the German Reformed
church, and settled at Lancaster
of like mind, traveled extensively.
Both of these preachers, and others
holding prayer meetings and large
outdoor gatherings for religious pur
poses, and everywhere making con
verts. These converts were brought
together under teachers and minis
ters. and thus churches srrang up
in many places. Tlese churches
were in the habit of meeting for
conference concerning their work,
the first of such conferences being
held in Baltimore in 1789.
In 1800 these scattered churches
were finally united in one denomina
tion. This was effected at a confer
ence held in Frederick county, Mrt..
Otterbein and Boehm being present,
with Geeting, Newcomer and nine
others The denominational name
of "The United Brethren in Christ
was chosen, and Otterbein and
Boehm were elected bishops. Soon
it became necessary to have two an
nual conferences, and the second
one was formed in Ohio.
At first the United Brethren were
almost entirely German. but now
nearly all the members of the de
nomination are English-speaking,
though there are some German con
ferences.
The discipline of the denomina
tion, its rules of order, and its con
fession of faith, were adopted in
1815. They are much like those of
the Methodist church, emphasizing
in theology the doctrine of free will
rather than the Calvinistic doctrine
of foreordination, and having the
Methodist itineracy and other
Methodist features. The bishops
are not elected for life as in the
Methodist church, but for four
years, though they may be re
elected.
Women may he ordained to
preach. The General Conference of
the denomination meets once every
four years. In 1889 the United
Brethren revised their confession of
faith and their constitution, malting
a number of changes, the important
of which were the admission of
laymen to the General Conference,
and modifying the old provision
absolutely forbidding membership
in secret societies by forbidding
connection with secret societies that
infringe upon the rights of others
and injure the Christian character
of their members. These changes
were adopted by the General Con
ference, but a minority, led by
Bishop Milton Wright, father of the
Wright Brothers of aviation fame,
held that the changes were not made
in a constitutional manner and
therefore withdrew, forming the
United Brethren in Christ (Old Con-
stiution). There are 409 churches
of the latter body, with 19,106 mem
bers. Of the majority body there
are 3,487 churches, with 348,828
members.
C. E. Notes
Immanucl Presbyterian Endeavor
ers are planning a missionary play
let, including a pageant by a num
ber of girls, to be given on next
Wednesday even.ing in the social hall
of the church. Hikes and a good
social time are being enjoyed occa
sionally by the members and friends
of the society.
The Penbrook United Brethren
society is very much alive in the
work for the C. E. cause. Miss Ivy
Brighton, the hustling president, is
doing excellent work. The prayer
services and socials are interesting
and many good times are held
periodically.

istics of the Kingdom" at the morn
ing hour, and "The Temptations of
To-day," at the evening hour. Dr.
Herman will preach at both services.
There will be an attractive program
rendered by the choir.
The Sunday school is preparing a
most pleasing program to be given
on Childrens' Day, June 8. Zion is
supporting two home missionary pas
tors. one native missionary pastor
in India, four students in foreign
schools, is waiting the assignment
of an American missionary, and has

the glee club of Irving College. The

stitution have an excellent reputa

PLAN INFORMAL
MEETING SUNDAY
M.irkct Square Presbyterian
Congregation Changes Plan
of Evening Services
Market Square Presbyterian
Church is making an effort to adapt
itself to all the varied demands
which arise because of its location.
Situated where all the street cars of
the county meet its congregation, is
a most cosmopolitan one. To-mor
row morning a fine program, digni
fied and worshipful, will be rendered.
To meet the needs of an audience
which varies, the evening program
is very informal. Last Sunday night
three fourths of the audience was
made up of strangers. "This shows
that our change is appreciated by
the public," is the pastor's view of
the matter. "Floyd Thompkins, pas
tor of Holy Trinity Episcopal
Church, Philadelphia, wrote me, '1
make my evening service informal.'
He succeeds where other men fail."
The Christian Endeavorers are
planning to sell the new volume of
sermons, recently issued by J. Rit
chie Smith, former pastor. Many of
the sermons in the volume were pre
pared and preached in Market
Square Church. This will make the
volume a fine book of remembrance
by his former parishioners.
The event of the week will be the
election of deacons next Wednesday
evening. Ross A. Hickok and Mr.
Henderson Gilbert are the two men
whose term of office expires.
Begin Open-air Services
in Capitol Park
The Brethren in Christ will begin
their open air services on Sunday even
ing at the Capitol Park.
Services will begin at five o'clock.
These services will be continued every
Sunday evening during the summer
months.

UNUSUAL SERVICE
AT LOCAL CHURCH
Patriotism to Be Keynote at
Messiah Lutheran Assem
blies Tomorrow
On Sunday there will be held twa
unusual military services at Messiah
Lutheran church, Sixth and Forster
streets. At the morning service the
Civil War veterans of Posts 58 and
llfi also those members of the posts
in Steelton and Middlet-own, will have
the place of honor. To these veterans
the Rev. H. W. A. Hanson, pastor
of Messiah will preach a special ser
mon on the theme of "The Man Worth
While." The church will be decorated
with the national colors, and the choir
will render special music. Patriotic
airs will In a large measure replace
hymn tunes.
• At the evening service Messiah will
have as Its guests Company I of the
Pennsylvania Reserve Militia and the
Harrisburg Camp of the United Span
ish War Veterans. At this service the
sermon subject will be "The Call to
Arms." Special music will be a fea
ture of this service also.
At both these services men from
Messiah who have returned from
| army and navy service both in this
j country and in France will appear
| in uniform and replace the regular
I ushers. Especial attention marks the
! annual service of the G. A- R, and
it is with a deep feeling of pride that
Messiah this year has been asked to
hold the service for the survivors as
a part of the yearly commemoration
the veterans hold in honor of the
days when they were the Army of
Freedom.
NOVEL PLANS AT
RIVERSIDE M. E.
Unique Program Is Arranged
For Dr. Klopfer's Church;
Begin Sermon Series
"If you could Rpeak to all the young
men of Harrisburg for just two min
utes. what would you say to them?"
This is the question which quite a num
ber of the most prominent business and
professional and social men and women
of Harrisburg have answered in per
sonal letters to Dr. George Murray
Klepfer. minister of Riverside Metho
dist Episcopal Church, corner of Third
and Lewis streets, in this city.
Dr. Klepfer solicited these letters
preliminary to announcing a series of
Sunday night talks to young men, to
be given in his church, beginning next
Sunday evening, when the theme will
be "The Yodng Man and the Old Book."
Other topics will be. "The Young Man's
Pleasures," "The Young Man's Best
Friends," "The Young Man's Worst
Enemies," "The Young Man's Sister,"
"Can the Young Man Succeed In Busi
ness or a Profession and Be a Chris
tian?" "The Fast Young Man," "Are
There as Many and as Good Chances
For a Young Man to Succeed To-day
as Formerly?" "The Young Man's Re
ligion," "The Young Man's Patriotism."
closing with one on "The Young Man of
Galilee." Some very interesting letters
will be read each evening from Harris
burg residents, as well as from men of
nation-wide fame; such, for instance,
as Ex-Justice Hughes, John Wanu
maker. Tlishop Potter, Grover Cleve
land. Henry Van Dyke. Robert E. Speer,
Robert Burdette, Bishop Quayle, and
others equally well known.
The service will begin each evening
at eight o'clock. One or more good,
strong special musical numbers will
feature each evening. Miss Rachel
Thomas will sing a solo next Sunday
I evening, and Miss Thomas and Miss
Helen Klepfer will sing a duet.
