Mr. Brown said, We Baptists have let the world know that we are an army of the Lord and not only a denomina- tion. Numbers do not tell the story | of potentiality. ~We are weak in many points where we think ourselv strong, and it is because of this fact | that the five vear programme Is being formed. He spoke of denominations growing - in three distinct ways drift, tendency and propagan As one of the reasons why the Baptists have not grown as they might as by have | grown Rev. Mr. Brown said: We have | thought t when God wants to grow he will make us grow. Another reason for our la¢k of growth is be | cause we have thought that our prin- | ciples will grow themselves. Condition of the Denomination. The speaker said that a new gen- eration has come in the Baptist de- nomination and that the younger ministers are seeing things more clearly than their predecessors.

Nook 1 ardship. some parts of the country we have been at a standstill, as far as our growth is concerned, sald Rev. Mr. Brown. We have grown little in Con- necticut, slightly in Rhode Island, strongly in Massachusetts, but in other parts of New England we have gone down. ‘We are losing in New York state in spite of the fact that other churches have grown. In 1850 in six cities of more than 100,000 pop- ulation (northern cities), the Baptists stood first in numbers and influence. In 1390 the Baptists were first In Boston! they are third today. In| 1890 they were second in Rochester; they are third today. In 1890 they were first in Kansas City; they are fourth today. This broken propagan- da in our cities is a very serious problem that is facing us today. Our five year programme is to get us in- to the position of taking up once more the propaganda of the Kingdom of God. , Rev. Mr. Brown then spoke of the programmes launched since 1913 by varfous denominations and of the success they are meeting with, and he also told of the several elements that entered Into each of the pro- grammes. Speaking of the Baptists’ five year programme Rev. Mr. Brown said it has five points as follow Evangelism, missions, education, | mission and benefit funds and stew- He then took up each the five points in turn and expla their merits.
