Stafford, a Christian gentleman of the old school. His enthusiasm and zeal has set a flame of Lay evangelism never before seen in California. He and his supervisors are travel ing through the state in groups, singing, preaching and organizing. Following him are preachers, evangelists, missionaries and lay men. His weapons are Christian and spiritual. His understanding of men, his patience and sympathy toward them makes him a great leader, traveling with him to all these meetings is Mrs. Staffor^, encouraging us with her presence. The goal is an active Laymen's League in every church, co-oper ating fully with the program of the church and pastor.
