THE INTER-CHUKCH MOVEMENT
"XE OF the most promising signs of the times is tin

ple here lies the hope, perhaps the hist hope, ot a bet
ter day, of a return to wholesome living and elear thinking.
founded upon the re-estabhshment ot a sound and rational
spiritual basis.
Nothing is dearer than that the old religious habit
nave oeen lost as rar as tne vast majontv ol people an
concerned. The old fashioned eonflii-t of creed and dogma
is worn out. The people want something real, some spirit
ual appeal that has an actual relation to the problems
ol every day lit e.
Now a well organized movement has been launched, par
ticipated in by churches of different theological interpre
tations, but united in the common aim of restoring the vi
tality ot organized religion in tne lire ot all people. It is a
tremendous work, and one to which the best energies of
everv communitv mav well be directed.
"Where statesmanship has failed, where politics has
Collapsed, is it not possible, that religion, will succeed. It
will not be a new religion. It will be as old as the Sermo
on the Mount. But it will represent one tremendous
change, the transfer of religion from a'neglected abstrac
tion, to a vital and constructive force in every-day life.
.
The war prenared a fertile field for such endeavor. The
millions of men in Europe were brought closer to the eter
nal verities of life than ever before. A new spiritual life
for them was born. It was a universal (lod to whom they
prayed and it was a universal church from which they re
quested aid.
It would be too much to expect world church to emergi
in a dav. Habit is strong, and in a certain sense ecclesias
tical differentation is essential, for what appeals to one
temperament may never appeal to another.
But the inter-church world movement is a beginning,
a step toward a genuine revival of old-fashioned religious
taith, based upon a common aspiration tor better thing.
It mav not succeed as well as its promoters anticipate. But
it does hold out genuine promise: .And it is promise, the
promise of a better world, a higher plane of human associa
tion, for which the entire world yearns at the present
time, and which must be attained it civilization, as we
understand it, is to endure.

THE STATESMEN and the scholars of war-torn Eu

bucks and crowns, and tread our bloodstained gravel,
and see our shattered towns. They give us all the wil
lies, those Yankee tourist mobs, the rubbernecks and
sillies, the schweinhunds and the swabs. But, we must
have their boodle, and so we rise and wail, 'Hurrah for
Yankee Doodle, and for the eagle's tail.' " The tour
ists will be flocking for many years to come, to scenes
that once were shocking, where shrapnel used to hum.
Through regions grown historic the frowsy bunch will
tread, and say, "Alas, poor Yorick!" above the hero's
bed. "Where once some dauntless creature fought on.

should be hallowed, the rubbernecks will roam. And

"A few hustling ports like New

the redoubtable captain concerning
the facilities their hurlior-i now offer,
but certainly no harbor can claim a
much more romantic h story not orh

War as well.
