Jack and Jim were the pall bearers oreated a stir In metropolitan congre
gational circles, and through Rev. N.
D. Hlllls. D. Dm chairman of the na
tional council, the. Congregational
church as a denomination has succeed
ed In securing the services of Dr. Daw
son, who resigns his pastorship of a
church In London to come to tho Unit
ed Sales.
Dr. Dawson represents what Is b
coming known In Protestant circles In
some section of the east as "the new
evangelism." Hi method are new
but simple. Refusing to attempt to
refute the higher critic or even to or
rue on Inspiration of the Bible, he
would erect upon the foundation put
down by the scholar anj constructive
critics a better understanding of th
scriptures and the nature of man.
Knowing that preaching which Is to
reach the maas of the people, no mat
ter of what class, cannot In Itself con
stitute a battle with the "higher
critics," he answers their doubts by
the reply that nothing they hav ad
vanced concerning ' inaccuracies. In
consistencies or contradictions In th
Bible concerns the welfare of the amil
of inan either here or hereafter. ' Still
maintaining that successful Christian
ity depends largely upon culture, h
denies that it Is necessary to mastei
the Bible in history, literature, econ
omics and ethic to get the highest
good out of the Christian religion. H'
will not meddle with,, abstruse points
which he i not Intellectually developed
to grapple with, yet he believes he
meanest mind may garner from the
scripture as much as the greatest, al
though the better . the understanding
of the book the simpler Is the life and
the less difficult sincere Imitation of
Jesus.
"There may have been two Isaiahs or
there may have been twenty," say Dr.
Dawson to the critics; "what ha thit
to do with me, so long as I have the
profound spiritual message contained
In the book which bears the name of
Isaiah? I am indifferent as to whather
iJacon or Shakespeare wrote Hamlet

am much more concerned to save one
harlot from shame, one drunkard from
his folly, one prodigal son from his de
filement of the far country, than t
discuss those speculations about truth
which after all interest but a few and
are not helpful even to them."
Dr. Dawson's view Is that of a very
large percent of Christians, Protest
ant and Catholic. The view of the aver
age communicant Is that the proof of
the pudding lies In the eating. The
beneficial effect upon the world, np fal
sa we know it, of Jesus of Nazareth is
almost universally ' acknowledged;
philosophers, historians and savants
who do not accept his divinity praise
his ethical system
