James A . Hir ha rd s of the Winnetka Congrepationa l church brought home most forr t'f ull y the fact that there is something wrong with the religion of toda) no t in th e religion itself, but in it ' huma n expression . "The religion that oug ht to suppl y the world with it· jny a nd power is doing little more than fig ht a los ing rear-guard en ga !.!eme nt.' said .Mr. Richards. No Shout of Battle In answer to the que stion "What i· \\'rong with religion ?" Mr. Rich ani, pointed out that it is largely a matter of loss of heroism. "The first ( hri,tia n years are vibrant with the shout of battle," said he, "but sin ce Chr istianit y has not been so a thin g- of heroism as of fear . .' ' ' age ha s been on e of escape d is prese nt. rather than an at to destroy these ills. The pres colorl ess ness of religious life is dur to the time in which we live. difference lies in the fact that earlr Christian s were thorough rh l' ir religion . We are not.

Richards pointed out the fact at one of the greates powers in cry religious movement has been igiou s conversation. Not the "I am r' than thou" monologue, but le, earnest conversation.

This is so obVIOu s a statement th_ a t it hardly seems ne~<: s sary to make 1t. Still it is surpn s llll!' th~ n';Jmber of violations one sees of th1s s1mple rule of decorative art. Often people move from a large house into a small apartment and without giving the matter a second thought, upon the wall of the living room they hang the large, heavilyframed P!cture that formerly adorned th~ spactous wall of a wi<le, highc~t~ed r~om. There it delighted the vtston w1th a perfect bl ending of colors and subject , due to the atmospheric witchery of distance.
