CHURCH ORGANIZATIONS PLAN
FOR UNIFORMITY IN TOPICS
Committee Representing Various Denominations Now at
Work; Topics to Be Similia r to International Sunday
School Work—Local C. E. Societies Busy
During the coming year Christian
Endeavorers, Epworth Leaguers. Key
stone Leaguers of Christian Endeavor,
Baptist Young People's Union, and
various denominations that have not
fully recognized the uniform topic
methods in the weekly meetings, will
in all probability take a step toward
uniformity by adopting the topics that
will be prepared by a committee rep
resenting various denominations. The
new plan will be similar to the Inter
national Sunday School work. The
topics will be ready for the year 1920,
within several months.
The Methodists are doing a great
work apiong the young people. In 1729,
John and Charles Wesley, at Oxford
University, England, began a search
for personal holiness which resulted
in the formation of the Methodist
Church. They and their followers were
called Methodists in derision, because
of their methodical habits In religion.
The Wesleys maintained till their death
their connection with the established
Church of England, of which they were
ministers. The refusal of the English
bishops to ordain Methodist ministers
made it necessary for the Wesleys to
ordain them ,and led finally to the In
dependence of the Methodists.
The first Methodist church in the
United States was built In New York
City in 1768.

DISTRICT U.E.
CHURCHES ACTIVE
Will Use "Threc-Minute-Mcn"
to Meet Ends of the
"Forward Campaign"
At the session of the General
Conference of the United Evangeli
cal Church held in York, Pa., Oc
tober, 1918, it was decided that the
bishops should "give the major por
tion of their time to the following
lines: Education, missions, church
extension, evangelism, superannua
tion fund and ministerial support."
The issue of this General Conference
action has been the launching of
the greht "Forward Campaign"
with five principal "objectives,"
namely, Bibie study, personal de
votion, the prayermeeting, Chris
tian stewardship and tho raising of
a special fund of $1,000,000.00 for
denominational purposes. This sum
is not to include the usual contribu
tions, but to be in addition to the
regular income.
Wherever the denomination is lo
cated, meetings are now being held
to stimulate interest and a rising
tide of enthusiasm is reported as
being about to sweep through the
churches. The Harrisburg district
is for this purpose, divided into five
"groups of churches," one of which
is the Harrisburg group, comprising
Harris Street Presbyterian and Sixth
Street of this city; Penbrook, Dau
phin, Steelton, Rutherford and Pax
tonia.
The first rally of this group was
held in the Harris Street Church,
this city, on Thursday afternoon
and evening, and was attended by
representatives from each of these
churches. The evening meeting
was in charge of the Rev. W. S.
Harris, leader of this group of
churches, and addresses were made
by Bishop W. M. Stamford and the
Rev. A. E. Hangen. The meeting
was characterized by great enthusi
asm and it was predicted by the
speakers that the Harrisburg group
would go well "over the top" in all
of the important "objectives" of the
"Forward Campaign."
At the afternoon conference
meeting, steps were taken to hold a
series of rallies in various churches
in this group and a pamphlet show
ing the organization of this group,
and giving information as to time
and places of rallies will soon be
issued for general distribution.
An important factor in the reach
ing of the ends of the "Forward
Campaign" is the use of three- min
ute men to speak on these subjects
before the various congregations
and about 25 of them are now be
ing selected and trained for service
in this group. They will be inter
changed In these churches.
