...Dr. Russell Wallace wrote saying a most admirable and suggestive name had been chosen for the organisation--"a name that will recall to yourselves and your children how a great man, a sweet singer, an enthusiastic worker, strove with all his might to convince this materialistic age, whose only real god is mammon, that there was a better way than that which they were following."
