. Geneva, July 10. Four hundred years
ago today John Calvin, the great Pro
testant reformer,: waa born In Noyon,
France, and in all Protestant countries
the event ia observed in a more or- less
elaborate manner. The city of Geneva,
which for many years was the scene of
Calvin's reformatory activity, and where
he died in 15S4, made especial efforts to
observe the memorable anniversary by
dedicating a monument of the great re
former, calvlnlstst and Protestants In
general from all parts of Europe assem
bled in this city to attend tne dedication
of the monument and the incidental ex
ercises and to do honor to the memory
of the most brilliant evangelist of the
rrotestant lalth.
Calvin was not the author of the re
formation; Luther Is undoubtedly ' en
titled to that distinction. But Calvjn,
like hs coreligionist Knox,-was more ag
greesive than Luther, and although his
part as a practical reformer was acted
upon a very narrow stage, hla power ai
thinker and writer, organiser and aya
tematlser, extended over the broad field
of Europe. He took up the acattered be
llefa and thoughts of the new evalgel
lcal party, and in the loom of hia strange,
logical and legal Intellect wove them
Into a new system. - The circumstances
of Calvin's life -were of - a kind to in
tensify his geaU''":-- r -r- 'ivv :'-'z : 1

Calvin was born ai Ioyon, July 10,
1509.-' His father was a notary and the
secretary of a bishop. Young Calvin
waa intended ' for tha prleathood, and
after' he had studied ' In Paris he was
given a curacy. Five years later his
father : had a bitter quarrel with the
ecclesiastical authorities pf his' home
town, and as a result young Calvin gave
up the priesthood and 'began to study
law. : In tha course of - his studies he
came In contact with and under the In
fluence of Melcholr Wolmar, a strong
sympathiser with, the reformist move
ment. : V -'
Austere as Calvin was In his private
life, the profligacy of hla time would
firobably have made a reformist of him
n any event But hla father's quarrel
with the ecclesiastical, authoritiee and
the new surroundings and associates
during his . legal studlea undoubtedly
hastened the turn In his career. He was
rapldlr-drawt Into fellowship with ths
rerormiata. and aoon arter waa com

. Calvin's rantons Treatise.
' It was In Geneva that he began to lm
nresa hia personality on hia time. At
the age of 26 he wrote hla famous trea
tise, "inatitutio unristianae tteugionis.
which -vaa read everywhere In Europe
and spry ad his fame far beyond the
boundaries of Bwttserland. At that
time Geneva wae a free city of Bur
gundy. It waa governed by a bishop of
the established church.. The city was in
a state of political and ' moral decay
when Calvin reached it in 1636. Other
French reformists, who had been exiled,
hsd preceded him. and they prevailed on
him to remain and help them In the
work in which thev were enaraared.
Calvin founded a school, and after
ward began preaching to small congre
aationa. Most or nia followers, now
ever, were evidently much lesa concerned
with hla religious teachings than with
the prospect of using hla Influence-to
onoose the nolltlcal nower of the wshop,
When Calvin discovered this fact, ail the

hia former followers, and Calvin was
comDelleri ' to flee. For several years
Calvin led a wandering life In. Germany,-
and not until 1541 did he dare to return
to Geneva, where great changes had
taken place in the meantime. Calvin be
gan to exercise a power as absolute as
had been tnat' or .Jjycurgus in eparta,
and greater than ' the pope bad ever
wielded. -
Calvin founded an ecclesiastical state.
which he sought to make as ascetic as
