Swanick, bonus W. rl a ng topic of conversation was the great ¢ trial 'en openly stated that the trial was brought on at the. rton, to give publicity to the place, and to obtain h a big crowd spends. Evidently the plan worked and Chr olid 4 Ls of the trial was the teaching in a publicly sh pote school hool the subject of evolution in violation of a recently aw b; sion that guilty, There were two other questions at issue, however--the tutionality of the Tennessee law, and the effect of the teaching of evolution upon the authority of the Bible. These latter were the real matters to be settled; but they stil) remain mueh-as.they Were before the. trial. : A tragic feature of the trial was the startlingly sudden death of William Jennings Bryan, the famous champion for the orthodox teaching of the Bible according to the accepted beliefs of the people he represented. Of his sincerity there is no doubt. But of the advisability of trying to compel belief by process of law there is grave doubt. It cannot be done. There is also something to be said for the attitude of Gamaliel, the ancient Jewish Rabbi, who warned those who would suppress the then new teaching of Christianity, that if it was of man it could not endure, while if it was of God, it would be dangerous to fight against jt. Religion has had many champions, and none of them down through the ages firmly fixed and enduring. For the comfort of those who fear that religion is being un- dermined by the teaching of evolution, it should be stated that the majority of people know little or nothing about the subject beyond the ecarricature which has become current that man de- scended from a monkey. Most people were quite content to re- main .ignorant of the teachings of evolution, and would never have heard of the matter but for the famous Tennessee trial. 'It is: wonderful to remember that Darwin's books--*The Descent of Man" and "The Origin of Species"--were written over fifty years ago; and Christianity has remained unharmed. As Macaulay points out in his essay-- Burleigh and. His Times" --the religion of a people may be changed officially over night without great opposition, because most of the people have no decided opinions upon the matter, but are willing to be guided {by those in authority. He says: "Rach side has its few enterprising champions, and a few stout-hearted martyrs; but the nation, undetermined in its opin- ment, and lent to the Sovereignfor the time being an equally ready aid against either of the extereme parties. History is repeating itself. Fundamentalism and modern- ism are struggling for supremacy. Much is being said and done in defence of "the faith" or in defence of "liberty of thought and speech" which is extreme, and which but ill accords with the principles laid down by Christ in His teaching-- "By this shall, 'all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye love one another." Briefly, fundamentalism claims to believe and uphold the doctrines upon which®the early Christian church was establish- ed.Modernism, on the other hand, urges constant study and in- vestigation of all doctrines and religious statements, using every means of bringing our expressed beliefs into harmony with the revelations of science and scholarship, Naturally there has arisen sharp discussion as to what must be considered "fundamental trines", because ever since the beginning of the Christian c urely there have been discussions and disputes about-- "The Person of God" "The Nature of the Trinity" "The Inerrancy of the Scriptures" "The Doctrine of the Atonement" "The Divinity of Christ" ~~ " wr - "The Immaculate Conception" and many more kindred subjects. ; Tu st now the following extracts from "Success" give a fair: ly accurate idea of the religious controversy of to-day. We may not care to take part in the discussion but we should be intelli- gently informed as to the principles involved if possible. "There are many who say that it is only ignorant prejudice that has put this anti-evelution law on the statute books of this State--but they are wrong. Ignorance and prejudice have play- ed their part, but it is a minor part. "The reason why Tennessee-has passed the -anti-evolution legislation is not that the Tennesseans are ignorant--it is be- cause they are moral. "They are earnestly trying to preserve religion and moral- ity from what seems to them the rising tide of atheism and immorality. "If you talk with one of these farmers who has driven in | or walked in from back in the. mountains, you will discover that to him that religion 'and morality, or atheism and immorality are 4 90} synonymous ternis; "He is opposed to 'science, not because he has anything ing to undermine the.

Hutcheson, ger Branches also at Blackstock, Little Britain, Myrtle Station, Nestleton ) Station, Sunderland "Evolutionists are discovering that science loses more than it gains when it leaves religion out of the reckoning. "It is becoming apparent to the more deeply thoughtful people that the task of this generation is the spiritual interpre- tation of evolution. "Science and religion are both- seeking the Great Cause. "Religion insists that the Cause is Personal--and Religion may be right. "Science is sure that the Cause is natural--and science may be right. "Perhaps our line between the supernatural and the nat- ural may be an imaginary one. "But far more consequential is the focusing of the atten- tion of the people of the world to this fact: "That religion and science need each other--and must find some way of helping each other if our civilization is*to endure." Open Letter re Port Perry Fall F alr, Ladies and Gentlemen: As President of Port Perry al appeal to you for your help to the greatest ever. 1 have just returned from the West, having attended the - five Class A Fairs. All have had increased attendance. All have had increased exhibits, and I have been wondering why we could not do the same thing. Calgary Fdir was perhaps the greatest from an attendance point of veiw. Why? Everybody in Calgary was a booster. It was their Jubilee--50 years old--75,000- people--and: everybody turned out to the 5-mile parade. Everybody turned out to the Fair if they were able to get there. No pessimists. No knock- ers. At least I nor anybody I came in contact with, had not heard of any. It. is said that every Calgarian is a booster. Let everybody in town. invite their friends here for that day. Write them, telephone them, feed them, then pack up the dishes (they will keep) and be there with. them to hear the opening address. If you live in the townships, invite your friends to meet you at the Fair. ~If you are not interested in exhibits or the compe- titions, make it a social function. 'We need all your help. The directors have been struggling for years with an overdraft." Help them to meet it. If you have a good chicken, or a big pumpkin, or a good potato, or a colt, or something else that looks better than your neighbor's, let us have your exhibits. Then, if the prize money is a ilttle low; or prizes do not stretch far enough for you to get some, next year the 'directors will have the courage to run it out farther, and perhaps make it larger. . Then we will start to grow. Port Perry is as nice.a town for its size as any-in Ontario, built on the water's edge. All it' needs is an artificial bathing beach to make it a real summer resort. We have not-aequired that yet." 'But we have a Fair. ~~Let- us boost it, holler for it, talk for it, work for it. Boost the school, boost the town,boost everything, and then some day we will get momentum enough to'get the heach: If you are not a booster, atid think you cannot ever be one, sell out 'and make'room for 'one. You go to that better place. Then-after awhile you will get homesick, and be a booster, too. R. M. HOLTBY, President. Information Yor Prospective "Hydro Users.
