The InterChurch Vorld Movement, which spent mil- lions'in an effort to raise millions, and which, with unexampled press-agent- ing, undertook to impose modern methods and efficiency and system up- | cn the Church, is a confessed failure. it has been unable to raise more than | half of its financial objective, and it has been repudiated by some of the | great denominations. | Despite its endorsement by shrewd | | business men, despite the Rockefeller | special train of speakers, who are | eminent leaders in the | and political world, despite an elab- | orate o | few coul agp InterChure 0 rid Movement must i be written down a failure--although | [it has been by no means without re- | sults, some of them permanent; and | although its objectives were praise- | worthy. 1 A sudden creation by officials who { had caught the contagion of | meglomania of "big business," the | Movement and its makers have been | rejected by the sober second thought of Christian people; although out of it, we hope, there may emerge a i saner and more responsible leader- | ship, a surer, more Scriptural basis { of co-operation among the churches, and a return to the tested integrities {of a Christian service, such as have {alone brought success to' the Church { throughout the centuries. | Something like a crisis now re- { sults.

It is the wisdom which looks beyond methods | personalities, and seeks to impart a new spirit to a nation or to the world. | The skill with which the statesmen of | Japan have revived Shintoism for | their larger purposes might be call- | ed super-strategy. On a broader | scale, it is what is most urgently | { needed in world politics at the pres- | ent time, to avert impending demoral- | ization and disaster. Financial and | economic and military and political | measures are well enough in their | vay; but they are all wasted effort | unless this old world gets a new set | cf impulses that will make .it mora | Lrotherly and less selfish.

Now, for some unaccountable reason, he supply has been greatly | decreased, and, unhappily, the pro- fiteer has also stepped in. Four or | five guineas was the utmost asked for a complete skeleton in pre-war times; | cow the price is at least ten gulneas. A certain humor is lent to the sit- | uation by the appearance in medical journals of advertisements asking the | loan of a skeleton for a short period! | It recalls the savoury conversation | between Bob Sawyer and his fellow- | student, Benjamin Allen, 'at the | breakfast-table, when Dingley Del- lites regaled with details oom- | cerning the competition for the pos- session of a skull at "Bart's."

Obviously, the presemt condition is the result of poor leadership; the huge bulk of organized Christianity of a small group of men in New York, who undertook to lay plans for all the churches, afterward asking the en- dorsement of their plans by the churches. That the outcome of the InterChurch Movement must neces- sarily be the retirement of a consid- erable company of men from cfficial positions in the general organizations 2ttached to Christianity is a foregone conclusion upon which it is not plea- sant to dwell. As they pass into pri- vate life, and more obscure positions, ¢ should be without bitterness on the part of anybody; local congregations should be the gainers by this inevi- table witixirawal from posts of prom- inence to the quieter spheres where most of the work of God is done; and where the vast majority of Christians find ample field for the exercise of all the ee of Christian ability they possess. These men are but going the Sam- uel way: may they show the Sam- | vel spirit. The incident--for, after all, in the | larger view, it is only an incident in | the progress of the Church--sharply { reminds us that the problem of every | time is the problem of leadership. That is why we are considering it now in connection with this Sunday School | Lesson Review. Samuel's whole life { was bound up with the question of { the leadership of Israel. He was call- {ed in early childhood to prepare to | take the post of Eli, the leader who | had been found,K wanting. In time, | changed conditions, the effect of pub- | lic opinion, forced Samuel out of his | post of national leadership. Instead | of becoming soured or sulking in his tent, Samuel was appointed by God to the task of choosing leaders for the new era; and he it was who an- | cinted Israel's first two kings, Saul | and David. Samuel was the OIf Testament's | best type of spiritual leader. His | character and conduct were unblem- | ished. He wanted only to find out the will of God, and do it. He was as courageous as a warrior, as gentle as «. woman. His one law and guide was Phone 433 j the word of God. His personal dig- nity lends him a quality of real gran- | deur; he was a gentleman, "without Cal TNL SYRU OF TAR "& COD - Pp LIVER OIL Coughs, Colds, G rippe, Bronchitis, hooping Cough, Asthma, Ete.

This is a unique op-| portunity for the Christian forces of | America to exert a really world-wide | influence. The occasion, properly | handled, by real statesmen, can con- tribute meie to the equitable and Christian settlement of acute prob- the chancelleries of the world. the same time the convention may be semination of those ideals which are | the only hope of permanent peace in | the world. 1 os whether the op- | portunity will be seized; or whether the Tokio meeting will be merely one more of the countless religious con- ventions which are more or less a pious junket for professional conven- tion-goers? What would Samuel do | were he on the committee of arrange- ments ? Picking Tomorrow's Leaders. This notion that Samuel today would be in Sunday school work aunts me. He was the rophet whom God chose to pick out the men cf leadership and power. He found a king,--the greatest the world has known--in a ruddy-faced boy ' who was tending his father's sheep. He saw the real bigness of hulking, giant Saul; and, later, the real little- ness that he developed. Samuel would be one of that sort, whom we o¢cas- ionally meet in the ministry and in the teaching profession, who are ever on the lookout for young people of ossibility. These men place less re- iance upon organization than upon life; they would rather send out one boy of power into the world's service than estabiish the most modern of smoothly-running church machines. The best work of all is the creation of workers. To teachers and mothers and preachers it is given to fill the Samuel role of being king-makers. British statesmanship has more of this impersonal quality of producing or nuturing the fit man for the na- tion's service than the younger na- tions have acquired. The case of Colonel Lawrence, "the uncrowned king of Arabia," is in point.: His government stood behind him in the pression of his unique gifts. It is super-statesmanship to find and de- velop the man who will be the shaper of opinion and events in the long to- morrow. Let us have inciters and in- spirers and trainers of the Christian leaders of the future. Especially is there need that wherever a person shows an aptitude for new kinds and epheres of service, he have the appre- ciation and encouragement and sup- port of all who are charged with re- 3gonaibility for the work of the urch. have known more than cne pioneering worker in the field of religion who has left the Church dis- heartened because his unconventional and progressive spirit encountered only criticism and discou: ent in the Church. ge and upon dll the public Aol the church, that in this grave hour there may be sent Samuels to lead the chu and the world into Jaks of spiritual wisdom?
