THE LAYMENTOSTART | womsmmawson | - KERNAHAN SURVEY Personal Visitations to Be Made to Homes of 60,000 in Territory. Approximately 6,000 laymen in churches of various depominations in Washington and vicinity will start today their personal visitations to the homes of 60,000 men and women who have given their names in the recent religious census as having definite church or denominational preference, but no local church affiliation. ‘The object of these visitations is per- sonal evangelism, not merely the re- cruiting of new church members. They are under the direction of Rev. A. Earl Kernahan, who Has conducted similar campaigns throughout the country. ‘This afternoon, beginning at 2 o’clock, & final series of instruction and inspira- tional meetings will take place and fol- Jowing the conclusion of these meetings the workers will start out on their round of visits, Meetings in Six Districts. ‘The meetings today will be held in six districts in the area and all workers are asked to attend the meeting held in their own area. They are as follows: 2 p.m.—Central Methodist Church, Baliston, Va. 2:30 p.m.—Metropolitan Presbyterian Church, Fourth and B streets southeast. 2:30 p.m.—Calvary Baptist Church, Eighth and H streets northwest. 2:30 p.m.—Hamline Methodist Epis- copal Church, Sixteenth and Allison streets. 3 p.m —Pilgrims’ Presbyterian Church, ‘Twenty-second :nd P streets. 2 pm—Vermont Avenue Baptist Church, for all colored workers in the campaign. ‘Tonight practically all 125 churches engaged in this movement will be closed and instead of engaging in the usual evening service, when the people come to the church, the church will instead £0 out to the people through their lay Tepresentatives. isitations will continue every day MOTHER AND SON MRS.

Chairmen of Districts. ‘The chairmen of the 10 districts for this climax week in the visitation evangelism campaign are: For South ‘Washington, Rev. Freeley Rohrer; Cen- tral Washington, Rev. W. A. Lambeth; North Central Washington, Rev. J. J. Rives; North Washington, Rev. Chesteen Smith: Northeast Washington, Rev. Kyle Booth; Eckington-Brookland, Rev. O. O. Dietz; West Washington, Rev. A. R. Bird; Cleveland Park, Rev. F. C. Reynolds; Virginia, Rev. Perry Mitchell, and for the colored churches, the leaders are Rev. Robert Brooks and Rev. Murray, pastor of Vermont . Avenue Baptist Church, which is the head- quarters for the colored workers. Dr. Kernahan, speaking of the im- —Underwood Photo. mediate work before the churches of ‘Washington in this campaign, said: “It is our conviction that just as long as we leave the Christian appeal to be made by the pastors alone, it will be incomplete, it cannot be comprehensive, ‘We never conduct a visitation campaign withoyt recelving many reports that large numbers of people have been won whom the pastor had failed to win, even after many years of earnest effort. “We cannot guess about the religious situation of any “erson. No one on earth knows the religious needs of a person but himself. We send the people to visit in the most sympathetic, un- prejudiced and natural manner. They talk about religion, about Christ, about Christian responsibility, and the Savior- hood of Christ until the person reveals his moral and intellectual attitude toward the personality of Christ. We open the mind of the person, in order that the divine influence may enter. This is the human part of the evangel- ization of an individual, and of a whole community.” FALL LEASE FRAUD CASE THROWN OUT BY COURT Appeals Court Disallows Plea of Indian Owners of Mining Properties.
