16 St. Joachim, CoodsellMethodist Fifty Years' Ago Reminiscences of Early Days of Church While Section Was Developing Goodsell Memorial Methodltt Church, which will celebrate 1U Golden Anniversary Oct. 16 to 23, was born as a Mission Sunday school in the home of Mr. and Mrs. R.

P. Sutton, on Liberty Ave, near Crescent By July 3, 1888. It first church building, shown in the picture, located at McKinley and Sheridan Aves was dedicated May 10, 1891. The congregation had grown so by 1896 that It was enlarged by malting it one half larger. The gas lamp lights in front of the church were secured for the congregation from the city through the efforts of Alderman Grimm.

The section was known in those days as Belle Plain and Adamsville and later as City Line. Gartleman's general store, Wilson's blacksmith shop and Theuret's feed store were Liberty places of business. Wednesdays and Saturdays were market days and the housewives wended their way on foot to East New York to purchase the weekly supply of specials, which they carried home in baskets or, better still, pulled home in "express wagons." The picture on this page was taken by Dr. Ralph Welles Keeler, Goodsell's present pastor, who also served Goodsell as pastor from 1904 to 1906, while a student at Drew Theological Seminary. Chapel Still Used The brick edifice in which the members of Goodsell now worship was built In 1916.

The old building, now covered with green shingles, is used for the beginners and primary church school departments, church dinners and social affairs. When Goodsell people held a church dinner in the old days the women brought dishes, silver, linen and all other equipment, marking them for later identification. Electric lights, gas radiators and other Improvements In the old structure were Installed when the present church building was erected. United Lutheran Church Is Busy The United Lutheran Church in America Is not letting Summer and the vacation period Interfere with Its plans for Its "anniversary appeal" of the Board of American Missions of the Church to spread the message of the gospel throughout rural sections of the United States and Canada. Two projects are now In full swing, an evangelistic tour-by the Rev.

Carl F. Yaeger, young Lutheran clergyman, and the exhibition of the film Thunder of the Sea," showing the place of the Lutheran Church In past, present and future history. Sabaothi Mr. Yaeger Is organizing an army of 100.000 men and women to aid "in the struggle of the church against the problems of war, social distress and personal immortality." He Is forming "Saboaths" to function as did the Sabaoths of Bible times, to guard the temple, each group pledging Itself to accept any task for the church assigned as a religious duty. One of the chief duties will be to make personal calls upon lukewarm church members and try to show those hostile to Christianity the fallacy of their attitude.

These Sabaoths have no chairman, no presidents, no captains and no formal dues. The local pastor and the headquarters office are the only ones holding membership lists. Mr. Yaeger was led to enter evangelistic work because of the failure of the church to cope with present day problems, was impressed upon him after personal observation in typical industrial towns. He does no ballyhoo stunts, has no "sawdust trail" and works slnglehanded in bis campaign.

Sound Film The sound film "Thunder of the Sea" is being distributed throughout the United Lutheran Church territory by six projectionists, each having five films and five projectlor machines. Arrangements are mad with a church for the hour, instructions are given for projection of th- film and the film and machine ar. loaned for the showing. From to 30 audiences are in this way enabled to see the film in one evening Sometimes three shows have to br given in a church to accommodate the audiences. Both projects are part of th-20th anniversary celebration of th founding of the United Lutheran Church.

rr ife The first chapel of Goodsell Memorial Methodist Church, McKinley and Sheridan as it looked in 1904 with Its muddy street and gas lamps. It is still being used as a parish house and chapel, but enlarged and modernized. The picket fence was to protect the building against wandering goats. By ESTHER COSTER Down- in Mena, Ark, is a college that in its curriculum, methods, personnel and leadership is radically different from other institutions of learning in the United States. The name "Commonwealth College" gives a hint of its peculiar function with the name "Commoners" adopted by the students and faculty emphasizing the co-operative nature of the work and its relation to labor.

Claude Williams, director of the college, is an ordained Presbyterian minister whose congregation in Paris, Ark, was made up of farmers and miners, suffering from economic ills. Feeling the need of religious fare. Claude Williams conceived it to be his job to answer the appeal through the church so that nobody could say "Why go to church if the church cannot help us?" He saw Indecent conditions of living all about him, which to him were actually irreligious, and immediately started to make his church a temple of labor, dedicated to the producers of the earth and to their needs. He was a "fire and brimstone" type of preacher. He used many means to meet the needs of his congregation, even advocating baseball games on Sunday to raise funds for children's shoes.

He placed game facilities in the church building to keep his people away from pool parlors when they were out of a job. He met opposition at almost every point, but found his reward in the response of the people whom he helped to greater happiness and a saner point of view. His church members supported his policies and the miners whom he had helped to get recognition for their union gave $5,000 for a new church which could be a real Labor Temple. They gave their labor at night to lay the foundations of what they looked upon as their building. Unproved Charge Two factions lined up for battle.

Williams and his congregation of working people on one side, a small reactionary group on the other that made charges of communism, atheism and other non-Christian acts, charges that were never proved. Williams finally lost his Presbyterian fellowship through the minority charges "for the good of the Kingdom." Now without a pulpit, because he had both practiced and preached the "social gospel," Williams openly advocated the side of the workers and determined to give them what they needed most education. Commonwealth College is the answer, Williams' concept of the duty of religion to labor. Each quarter a short course is given on "Religion and Labor." His entire work is based on the slogan "When the struggle's over we shall all be free." For his concept he has been Jailed, Youth to Attend World Congress Five hundred or more young people from 54 countries will attend the second World Youth Congress at Vassar College, Poughkeepsie, N. August 16-24.

This year a training institute for Negro and white "cotton preachers" will be held in Little Rock, with sessions for citrus pickers and industrial groups. The power of Claude Williams has been greatly emphasized by the fact that Southern workers are essentially religious. He believes them also intelligent and gives them the type of education they are hungry for to help them gain the decent things of life if given half a chance. The entire movement is denounced by reactionary forces as atheistic and immoral, but Williams, believing that only through such education can the masses be raised above their present low economic and spiritual status persists in spite of ill health and almost Insurmountable handicaps.
