CHRISTIAN ORDER A POWERFUL ADDRESS. (“Times-Age” Special.) The director of the campaign for the Christian Order, the Rev. F. H. Robertson, addressed a meeting in the Presbyterian Church on Tuesday evening. In a very powerful address he explained the. purpose and the necessity of the campaign. He stressed the absolute need for the unity and cooperation of the churches as an essential condition of an effective appeal to a divided, warring world and for the gigantic tasks of winning the peace. Not only must the barbarism without be stemmed but the paganism and moral decay within our country must be checked and displaced by Christian principles, said the speaker. The church leaders were seeking to point the way to a Christian Order. But whether our country and the world would escape chaos by moving forward to a Christian Order depended entirely on the enthusiasm and loyalty of the lay people in each local community. 'They must be determined that only Christian principles shall control our education system and all our personal, social, commercial and political life.
