Dr. Chown, General Superin- 'tendent of the Methodist church in Canada, declared in a speech in the (Metropolitan church, that "we are fighting for the democracy of Jesus." Some of Dr, Chown's fellow |preachers in England do not appear to be quite so sure on this point as Dr, Chown; at least they are some- what concerned over some of the signs which are appearing while the ; War for the democracy of Jesus is on. For instance, the Church Times of London complains sadly of the preva- among British soldiers, and says that recently some soldiers were march- in- decent parodies of hymns to the fa- miliar tune to those hymns. "And the worst of it is," adds the Times "that there was no attempt on the part of the officers in charge to make their men behave decently in public," The Challenge, another church 'publication, declares "that. the great majority of people in England have entirely lost the need and the solace of worship." On Sundays in London, it says, "tube, tram, train are crowd- ed to stagnant airlessness by people on pleasure bent. The church and its ministers fail to appeal.

"peterce of? the Christian Sence of religion in the army. He found hardly any interest in spiritual things, and Christian beef, either in the providence of God or the immor- tality of the soul, is, for the most part, absent, "There is," he goes on, "a strong feeling among many of the men that the whole war is a demonstration of. the futility and impotence of Chris-. tianity and the churches, since' most of the nations now at war are Chris- tian, and Christianity is understood to be the religion of love and univer- A prices on Friday during these days.
