D.. pastor of Kountae Memorial Lutheran chutrh, at the monthly meeting of the Omaha Ministerial union. I Rummage sales, Iwzare, "sailer kraut suppers and chicken soup dinners in connection with the churchm) are some of the distractions which disgust tho men and keep them away, the minister do- i dared. "When a church goes Into tho i old clothes business, or the hash house ; business. It logos caste." he said. The preacher also blamed tho ministers I themselves for tho scarcity of male at I tendance in their congregations. He as , serlcd that men Inquire Into the personal I habits of pastors, and often refuse to at- term cnurcn ror mat reason. "Home ministers take life too easy to command the respect of the laymen,' Dr. Balttly said. "Wo are sometimes too lar.y I to appeal to men. A man likes busy, hustling men, nnd ft preacher who lies I abed In tho morning has no Influence. Other preachers are not aa religious as they ought to be. Ktlll others do not know enough about the Bible. They must have knowledge, or they cannot speak with authority." "When Billy Sunday comes to Omaha the men whom ho will 'gtvo It to" tho hardest and first wjjl be tho ministers," ho said. "Billy skins the prcachors Just as closely and vigorously as ho docs the hardened sinners." After stating that ho had found that the way to reach men was by calling on them In the family circle at their homes In the evening, he outlined how to hold men In the churches after getting them there. "We cannot hold men In our congrega tions if our sermons are poor, old slip shod, aimless, long, soulless .or dead. Un less wo put life, effort and earnestness Into our discourses wo can expect no re sults. Besides Improving our sermons, we must get tho men Into churches when they are young, and must educate thorn In religion so they will never forget It."
