The unveiling of a valuable picture of Christ, painted by Professor Carl Hecker,took place at the Salvation Army headquarters, New York City. A very large audience listened to an address by Adjutant Mrs. E. M. Whittemore, founder of the Door of Hope, who told the story of the picture. Professor Hecker was a' leading teacher of art and she was one of his | students. Learning that she and her husband had visited the. McAuley Mission, the pro- fessor, who was a sceptic in religious matters, expressed surprise that any one claiming social position should visit the slums. She told him, when he ridiculed religion, that she would pray that God might reveal the truth to him, and save an infidel as readily as he can save a drinkard. Some time afterward, the professor, during a severe illness, remembered her words and became troubled in his conscience. He told of his change in heart, determined to paint a picture of the Saviour as a gift to her who had first led him toward the light. A year passed, and the picture was finished.
