The Evangel is ever the same, but the method of work, the line of must change with times and con- ditions if we are to be effective. The Church 18's lMving organism, and therefore should be infinitely susceptible of and adaptable to environment and change of atmos- phere, The methed which met with overwhelming success in the eighteenth centuty is not of neces- sity the best method for the ent day. There is a great Church like our own, of coming to regard the method and the form as something which in itself {p al- most sacred, . . My own belief and experience is that there never was a time when youth was more ready to respond to the 'call of service and sacrifice, or so quick to see the heavenly vision. They are, however, suspicious of the these are methods of evangelism, the fact remains. Outside the churches, however, there are or- ganizations which are reaching them, capturing their imagination, and striving to lead them back to Christ and the Church, which is His Body upon earth, I believe that the wise policy of the Church is to avail itself of the aid of these in- terdenominational (inter-, mot un: denominational) organizations which are able to reach those who, for the moment, are suspicious or even antagonistic to the Church, Working in close co-operation with those who proffer their help, and with each other, great things can and will be done. Let us use the instruments which God is raising up to our Hhands--Toc H.," The Student Christian Movement, the Regnal League and, for the boys and girls, the Boys' Brigade, the Scouts and the Girl Guides.

Dr. Stanley White, Secre- tary of the Board of Foreign Mis- sions of the Presbyterian Church of the U.S, from 1907 to 1925 and for a year there after Chaplain of Rutgers University, is dead follow- ing an illness of more than a year, He is survived by his wife, two goys and two daughters. He was ordained to the Preshyterian minis. try in 1888 and from that date until 1907 held the pastorate of Hillside Chureh, Orange, N.J, Dur- ing his connection with the For- eign Missions Board he visited of- ficially Central America, Syria, Egypt, India, China, Korea, Japan and Russia, A layman whose: duty it was to repd the lessons in church came to A passage concerning "the char- fots of Israel and the horsemen thereof." Unfortunatley, the word 'horsemen' came at the bottom of the page and after a slight pause occupied in tarning over, he startled his hearers by pronounce ing the next ward as "they're oft." A former Protestant chapel near the Pantheon in Paris, which late- ly has been used ax a motion plc- turg theatre, has been purchased and transformed into a church for the Armenian Catholics of Paris, Rev. G, B. McLennan and Mrs, McLennan, of First United Church, Ottawa, were surprised by the Wo. men's Association of the church when a silk Geneva pulpit gown was presented to Mr, "McLennar, and a silver hot-water pitcher to Mrs, McLennan, World Wide Arrangements have virtually been completed for the construcs tion of a new Shingwauk (Angli- can) Home, Sault Ste. Marie, at a cost of $175,000. With the exception of a few be- quests to friends and one surviving relative, Catholic churches and charities share the $41,300 estate of the late John McCullough, Cam. den (N.J.) merchant. Rev. T. Bird Holland B.A, B, D., rector dt Holy Trinity Church, Chesley, has resigned from that position, He has been appointed by the Archbishop of Huron to the rectorship of Woodhouse and Port Ryerse, near Simcoe, in succession to Rev, James Ward, who has re- tired and moved to Toronto. The former President of France, Emile Loubet, who died recently at the age of ninety-one Years, and who was head of the State dyring the Combes anti-religious war that was for a long time to harass France, was long before his death completely reconciled with the Church. Those who attack the Catholic Church are in reality strengthen. ing it, and paving the way for the coming of the Church into the South, the Rev. Dr, Oscar Hay. wood, Baptist minister, declared In Albemarie, N.C,, In a talk before a businses men's club, Dr. Haywood told his listeners during the recent campaign, he fought the bigotry that evidenced ' itself throughout the South, and was nearly unfrock- ed by the Baptist Church, DIVORCE WOULD NOT BE - EASIER (Niagara. Falls Review) There is 'much popular miscon- ception about the methods of Frahuug ivorce at Ottawa. There 8 & quite mistaken notion that divorces are extremely difficult to obtain from the Senate committee, Yet the fact is that divorce is pro- bably much easier under present conditions at Ottawa than it would be when all cases would be heard [Jn by a competent judge, who would weigh the evidence just as he weighs and values other evidence. It is said that the average con- tested divorce before the senate committees lasts undér an hour. Not much evidence can be heard in that time. If divorces are taken to the courts, the laws of evidence would be strictly followed and it is not improbable that fewer rath- or than more divorces would be the outcome. ' . ORATORICAL FLIGHTS Apropos of our quotation in this column of Mr, Irvine's phase about 'Mr, Dunning "casting the cut flowers of the British Preference n the mangled corpse of Free de," a correspondent says it once applied to Bir Wilfrid Laurier recalls an even better sentence by the late H.

Xath- arine M'Leod, aged 35, was attack- od with a fever, which occasioned partial blindness, and almost total inability to take food. Her par- ents sometiimes put a little into her mouth, but for a year and three-quarters they had no evid- ence that either food or drink passed her lips. - By forcibly op- ening her mouth and depressing her tongue, they tried to 'compel | the passage of food, but a suftocat. ing constriction led them to desist.

'Hundreds of thous- ands of people from all parts of the globe will travel to the quaint Alpine village to witness the most unique and moving drama in the history of the world. It all began with a plague, and a prayer and a vow, In the midst of the Thirty Years War in 1633, Oberammer- SAD was smitten by a plague which swept away half the population, The simple and devout villagers prayed to God that the plague might be stayed but decided that some dramatic action ghould be taken to afford evidence of their sincerity. They decided to present ® passion play in the village churchyard, and vowed to repeat it as a sacred ceremony every ten ears thereafter, and to devise ws and statues. which would make the performafice obligatory upon their descendants if the pla- gue should be abative, The play was performed and the plague was stayed, and the drama has been repeated religiously ever since by the villagers whose two main occupations are wood-carv- ing and the presentation of the play. From the village which is composed of some 2,600 souls, the actors are chosen, only the most devout amongst them being en- trusted with the leading roles. For realism, reverence and fervor there is nothing in the world to compare with this most profoundly moving spectacle, Curiosity may* draw many-of the three hundred thous- and spectators who will witness the event. this summer, but it is certain that multitudes will have their hearts touched and their minds turned heavenward as by nothing else that they have ever UNION PROPOSALS MADE IN SCOTLAND ¢ Free Churches Considering Possibilities of The recent union has nnques- tionably led the other Churches in Scotland to a consideration of the value of united effort, Tenta- tive proposals towards conferenc- es on the subject have already been made apd the present month may see some practical outcome of the movements. There are con- sidered to be posgibilities of co- operation between the Free Chur- ches generally, while the 'smaller Presbyterian Churches---the Free the Reformed Presbytérian, the United Original Secession and the Free Presbyterian----are . looking further ahead and are thinking of an incorporating union. The dif- ficulties in the way are theological, and on the part at least of many Free Presbyterians there will be strong opposition to the proposal. Still, it is 'a welcoma sign of the times that these suggestions and overtures are being made. They indicate the trend of the best re- ligious thought, in view of the moral and social problems which call for more co-ordinated effort among the religious forces of the country than has prevailed for a century, At the moment the annual As- semblies of the Scottish Congrega- tional Union and the Episcopal Church are being held, the former in Aberdeen, the latter in Edin- burgh. Both have been accorded civio. welcomes, . At Aberdeen the Congregational hody has been complimented on being a "national institution" with a great work to do. Coincident with this gather- ing a new John Williams, the fifth missionary vessel in a famous his- toric line, has been launched in the Firth of Forth for service in the South Seas.
