. CLUB FORMED .
Twenty-one men of the Presbyteri-
an Church met in the Presbyterian
annex Thursday evening for the pur-
pose of organizing H men’s work in
this city. The purpose of this group is
to promote religious education and to
study the value of moral and spiri-
tual standards among the men of the
city.
Since there is no other group of this
kind in the city it was decided to
make it interdenominational and it
is open to any man who cares to be-
come a member. Doctrinal questions
ar to be excluded except those which
are fundamental to every demomina-1
tion in the city and which are accepted
by the different denominations.
After a well prepared supper was
enjoyed the men present moved to I
organization and the following name
was chosen by the group: “The Men
of the Church."
