THE SALEM DEACONESS HOSPITAL
The Salem Ministerial Union comes to the defense of the
4I Salem Deaconess Hospital, after a thorough investigation of
the recently-published charges of cruelty to some of the
j; wards of the county in that institution j
And it is a complete vindication. : I
, The Salem Deaconess Hospital fills a most useful place in
the flife of this city and the surrounding country ; giving de
Jvotd service to suffering and destitute humanity- never
inquiring in advance whether one in need of such services is
able to pay. The good Sisters of this hospital,! who control
.-it and give their lives in its service, deserve all the commen
dation the ministers give them; and the writer is convinced
that this is the feeling of every one of the thousands of peo
1 pie who have come under their care or who has observed their
unselfish work, j l
I While the Salem Deaconess Hospital is filling a .most
t useful place, and will continue in increasing measure in this
j regard, there is still a need that is unfilled, which the com
pletion of the first unit of the Salem hospital will provide,
i f There are some points in the letter of Mr. Tillinghast,
( published this morning; in this connection, that are worth
1 reading. There is every reason for the finishing of the
drive for the Salem hospital ; and the writer believes it will
be finished ' ' ; --" - - i f , , -
" And then Salem will be on the way to having splendid
hospital' service, and ample ; i and under the" best kind of

I 't IN HIE LIGHT OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY
quent speaker-on an earlv steakine tour of the country.
An official statement, setting forth the intentions of
the movement, declares: "The conception of the Bible as a
single, inerrant volume, equally inspired by the Spirit of
God and altogether consistent and harmonious in every
portion, is an unfortunate inheritance from medieval Eur
ope, which makes it impossible for a great many people to
understand it at all; but modern critical and historical re
search has given us back our Bible. -
"It is.no longer an impossible book full of moral and
intellectual stumbling-blocks, but an orderly record of pro
gressive revelation, charged with vital meaning in our relig
ious, social and political problems today. It is our aim to
make this more generally, known, i
"We think the time is right. The old order has passed
away, and with it much of the traditional theology which we
received as an inheritance from medieval Europe. On the
other hand, man is as incurably religious as in former days,
and is eagerly asking for a faith which shall be at once con
sonant with reason and verifiable in experience
enemies; do good to them that hate you, and pray for them
which despitefully use you and persecute you." These beau
tiful, inspired words are not much more in opposition to the
old ideals and customs than are His j whole life and teachings.
Many thinking people are coming to recognize that,
notwithstanding . their profession pf Christ, most of the

The Tyson Foundation is the name of an ambitious or
ganization recently launched in New York City, which has
for Itspurpose presenting the Bible in the light of the twen
tieth' century," as they phrase it.1 Its organizers declare that
ttlieyi propose "to make accessible to men and women in gen
eral the results of the research of modern scholars Into the
crigins of the Christian religion and its interpretttion, par
ticularly in regard to the Bible." "It is a sincere effort,
4hey declare, "to help those who are hungry for guidance, but
' vrho have no present-means of reconciling Christian faith
vitfthe known facts'of modern science." , - ..v-s:
Among the officers of the new organization, aside from
Dr. Stuart L. Tyson, who is treasurer, and in whose' honor
llJ is named, are such well-known .men as the Rev. Dr.-A.
.Cummins, editor of the Chronicle (Episcopal), VicPres
i isht; :Bishop Herbert Shipman; Judge E R. Finch "of the
Appellate Division 'of the Supreme Court of the State of
Many well-meaning and conscientious people will, of
course, 'unsparingly condemn this movement and its spon
sors. Such will insist upon the unreasoning acceptance of
every word of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation, and will
permit no interpretation of its various parts not in harm
ony with the old theology. They decline to see any signifi
cance in the fact that the various revelations making up the
Old Testament were widely; separated as to time and were
ostensibly given to meet various and differmg crises in the
development of the Jewish race. They turn with fear and
horror from the claim that the Bible is not intended as a text
book on science, and that it does not reveal and is not in
tended to reveal the scientific facts about the origin of man,
the way of the, creation of the earth and the physical uni
verse, or the cause and meaning of many of the physical
phenomena referred td by the various prophets. ( .
, Such literalists refuse to listen , to the suggestion that
possibly Adam was not actually moulded out of clay like a
modern statue, and that Iwe may riot have been literally
formed from a rib surreptitiously extracted from the an
atomy of Adam while he was in a comatose condition, but
that the whole story of Adam and Eve in the Garden of
Eden, is but a spiritual allegory to reveal the beginnings of
the moral and spiritual nature of man. Still less will these
good people listen favorably to the assertion that, so far as
this age, at least, is concerned, the whole of the Old Testa
ment is but a representation of the course of the spiritual
development of the race from the beginnings in the Garden
of Eden, from primitive ignorance, through warrings, strug
gles, sacrifices and sufferings, tlfrough prayer and spiritual
effort, up to tfie birth of the Perfect Man; up to a condition
of spiritual development where man is capable of somewhat
understanding and appreciating the revelation of the Christ.
It seems certain, however, that most educated men and
women who believe in the Bible will soon have accepted most,
if not all, of these claims as truths. . j
The insistence of Christians" upon the acceptance: and
binding character of all the Old Testament, worcUf or .word,
just as it reads, seems rather inconsistent, if not inexplicable,
in the light of the fact that Jesus life and teachings are an
orten rebellion aeainst manv of the doemas. the inexorable
hardness and brutality of the old faith and its results.? "Ye!
have heard that it hath been said of old time, An eye for an
eye and a tooth for a tooth;' but I say unto you, Love your
Christ, this new dispensation, is as yet not the atmosphere in
which we live and move, and have our being. - The golden rule
is forcrotten while the principle of 'fan eye for an eye and a
tooth for a tooth,", hatred, and the selfish impulse of aggran
dizement and gratification hold away in our hearts.
While these Modernists are harmonizing the Bible and
Science, let, them take care that their philosophy represents
God as not less, but more immanent in humanity, than does
the old theology.
Let Christians spend their tiirle emphasizing in word,
deed and life the spirit and teachings of Christ, instead of
contending for a literal acceptance of all the Old Testament,
and tney may in tne luture be more! successful in leadintr the
world away from the old law and inducing it to practice the
