RINGING THE CHURCH BELLS.
A Minister Defends Them and Sees
Many Advantages i'm Their Use.

at is the spirit of vandalism still ex-
tant which wishes to do away with the
time-honored custom of ringing church
bells,' said prominent divine to re-
porter. Civilization demands that many
obnoxious customs and foolish laws
should be done away with, but the pro-
gress of science, the morals of the people,
and general everyday business are, in
my opinionS not affected in the least by
church-bell ringing. The bell was
! adopted before clocks were invented to
call people to worship. 1t was time
piece itself, informing all in hearing of
the hour. In England at one time the
curfew tolled the knell of parting day,
just the same as the cannon at our mill
tary forts are discharged at sunset
"The atheistical iconoclasts, who
would be delighted to have not only
the bell-ringing stopped, but the
are the chief instigators of the hue and
cry that the church bell must 90. The
old, loud and continuous ringing has
been stopped, and merry, silvery chimes
peal forth that gladden. the hearts Of
those who hear it, and sound like music
in the Heavens. Civilization does not
necessarily require a dead silence. l
admit that any noise PERSISTED in for sew
eral consecutive hours becomes monot-
onous and disagreeable. The church
bells only ring at certain hours, and then
for brief period. The old agnostic next
door to the church howls against it and
writes an article to a scientific magazine
setting forth what great nuisance the
church-bell is and how civilization
should blush to tolerate such a relic of
superstitious days A newspaper copies
the article, and the general public is led
to believe that unless the church-bells
stop ringing, not only will civilization be
throttled in its onward march, but that
the world will soon turn into bowling
pendemonium, maddened by the bell
ringing. They also allege that
every house has a clock and
nearly every person watch,
so at the appointed hour they meet with
out being called together by bell. This
is to a great extent true. A great many
churches do not ring their bells to signify
the time for services. They frequently
have stated hours for the chimes to peal,
and on Sunday these hours are Just be-
fore services or after the close. AS long
as churches are built with tall spires the
hell with its chimes will be in them, to
sound at certain hours of the day. Then,
too. there is poetry in the ringing OF the
bells. A man who objects to them Is
rather matter-of-fact and disposed to be
hypochondriacal. A large city has a
great deal of noise made from many dlf-
ferent sources, but of them all l do be-
lieye that church bell-ringing is less det-
rimental to head, repose, and health
than anv. The church bell may go, but
II will be many generations hence, when
a different order prevails and when sound
is less popular than at present. New
