Rev. Arthur Hopkinson Speaks At C. C. Men's Club On "'Better Bridges" need toe better bridges, both for traffic and ideals, was outlined by Rev. Arthur Hopkinson at the meeting of the C.

C. Church Men's dub last night The First Methodist pastor outlined the need for better bridges for physical use as demonstrated by the recent flood and dwelt on the necessity of steel and stone to achieve proper strength. He went on to state that since a bridge was a structure erected to make a passageway for man from where he is to where he wants to be it could also be constructed of ideas and ideals as well as stone and steel. "Hence it follows that the trenchant sayings of Christ were in reality, new and better bridges leading to better human and divine relationships," he said. "As followers of the Nazarene we are obligated as well as privileged to take this new material thus bequeathed to the world-- the tremendous statements of the Golden Rule and the Sermon on the Mount-- and build better bridges in international, industrial, social and personal relationships" Philip Fairbanks Waterhouse pref dent, was chairman.
