There is considerable interest in the fortieth aninversary of the Ethical Culture Movement in America, which is to be celebrated in New York next month, Dr. Felix Adlcr four.ded a society on the common-sense proposi tion that all established religions are various expressions of the ethical ex periences of the race. In a recent statement he has declared that "th only thing that will bring about . a desirable condition in society and a permanent peace among the warring nations, that are now fighting insane ly for the possession of each other's territory, is a universal realization of tho interwoveness of nil life and tin; consciousness that there is no sacri fice in the effort to bring out benutv and strength in others." Upon such rhun, helpful principles as theso, thousands of earnest men and women havo trotten tocether in a non-sectar ian work that has proven one of tho most wonderful uplift movements in ncent years.
