AN EDUCATED LAITY.
BY REV. o. CONE, DID.
(Abstract.)

Points in an address at the Michigan
| Convention:
The value of an educated laity to a
church depends much on what is under.
stood to be the functions OF church. If
church is an organization which exists
only to perpetuate certain tradition of
Christianity rally around an infexi-
BILE doctrinal statement and guard it
against innovation, then it has no place
for an educated laity, nor, indeed, for an
educated clergy. For such church can
only grope and stumble along to the in
evitable fortune of blind leaders and
their blind followers. But if, on the
other hand, the true function of church
is to study and investigate the Christian
doctrine so as to bring the principles of
Christianity into relation with the chang
ing wants of men and make new applica-
tons of them to the new exigencies of
life, then it has need OF the highest intel
ligence and clearest insight, both in its
clergy and laity.
There is no place in the church for ed
ucated men, so long as it regards any
Interpretation of Christianity as final.
Christianity, indeed, does not change, but
its interpretations must be different from
age to age. Christianity Is ever the same
and it is never the same. History re-
solves this paradox. Our view of the
mission and the functions of Christianity,
our whole Interpretation of it must be
different to that of Paul and his contem-
poraries, who looked for an early coming
OF Christ and the end of the world. In
view OF this impending catastrophe the
apostle could scarcely counsel his friends
to marry So close did the limitations of
his age shut him in But to the student
of Christianity to-day. the horizon is in
definitely extended, and his interpreta-
ton must be not only larger but different.
The importance to church of an edu-
Gated laity depends also on the relation
supposed to exist between the pulpit and
the pews. If the pulpit is in the theory
of the church the sole source of light and
direction and the pews represent a mass
on the inertia of which the pulpit is ex.
pected to expend itself, then, in such a
church, an educated laity has no func-
ton, and an educated clergy can even be
dispensed with, for it is in vain that the
pulpit speaks learned language to ig-
norant and unresponsive pews. In such
conditions an educated minister is like
guide board in country where no one
can read. ALI the arguments which can
be framed for an educated ministry hold
with equal force in favor of an educated
laity.
The relation of an educated laity to
the church in the prosecution of reforms
and the culture of the religious life was
dwelt on at some length, and the speaker
closed by calling the attention of the Con-
vention to the Importance of educating
our laity in our own denominational
schools and colleges and presenting the
claims of Buchtel College on the interest
and patronage Of the Universalists of
Michigan.

WHY CANON FARRAR SIGNED THE
PLEDGE.

Clergymen of the English Establish
ment have been so slow to accept the
American theory and practice of temper
ance, i.e., total abstinence, that the fol-
lowing opinion of the distinguished
Archdeacon of Westminster has all the
more weight:
My reasons for taking the pledge
were partly general and partly special.
First, became convinced that the use
of alcohol in any form was not neces-
sity. | saw that whole nations have
lived and flourished without it. 1 be-
leved that the whole race of man had
existed for centuries previous to its
discovery. 1 was struck by the indis-
putable fact that in England 20, 900 in
habitants of our prisons, accustomed to
it all their lives, and the majority of
them brought into prison directly or
indirectly by the use of it, could be,
and were, from the moment of their
imprisonment, absolutely deprived of
it, not only without loss, but with en-
tire gain to their personal health. Men
enter prison sickly and blighted, are
deprived of drink, and leave prison
strong and hale; and women who,
when incarcerated, are hideous to look
upon, after being made compulsorily
sober by act of Parliament, recover the
bloom of health and almost of beauty.
Next, 1 derived from the recorded
testimony of some of our most eminent
physicians, that the use of alcohol is a
subtle and manifold source of disease,
even to thousands who use it in quanti-
ties conventionally deemed moderate
and from the testimony even of many
who discountenanee total abstinence,
that all the young, and all the healthy,
and all who eat well and sleep well do
not require it, and are better without
it. Then the carefully drawn statistics
of many insurance societies convinced
me that total abstinence, so far from
shortening life, distinctly and indisputa-
bly, conducts to longevity. Then aceu-
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1886-11-13

mulated evidence that drink is so far
from being requisite to physical strength
or intellectual force, that many of the
greatest athletes, from the days of
Samson EDWARDS, ''whose drink was
only of the crystal brook, "have achieved
without alcohol mightier feats than
those which have been achieved with
it; and many of the worlds wisest,
even if they have not, said Pindar, have
yet drawn out better inspiration from
other sources than can be drawn chem
ically from the fumes Of wine.
Seeing all which and much more, see
ing, too, in the Holy Scriptures Gods
own approval of his Nazarites, who, as
the prophet jeremiah tell us, were
purer than snow-"They were whittier
than milk, they were more ruddy in
body than rubies, their polishing was
of sapphire''-I saw, or thought saw,
grounds sufficient and superfuously
sufficient to make me an abstainer.

INGERs0LL ON DEATH.
His Eloquent Words at Brothers GRAY


The recent report-now happily con-
tradicted-that Colonel Robert G. In
gersoll was the victim of a malady
which was certain to prove fatal in a
short time, recalls to many minds the
speech he made few years ago at his
brothers grave. 1t was as follows:
Ny FRIENDS am going to do that
which the dead often promised he would
do for me. Theloved and loving brother,
husband, father, friend, died where
manhood's morning almost touches
noon, and while the shadows were fall
ing toward the west. He had not
passed on life's highway the stone that
marks the highest point, but being
weary for a moment he lay down by
the wayside and, using his burden for a
pillow, fell into that dreamless sleep
that kisses down his eyelids still. While
yet in love with life and raptured with
the world he passed to silence and pa
thetic dust. Yet, after all, it may be
best, just in the happiest, sunniest hour
of all the voyage, while the eager winds
are kissing every sail, to dash against
the unseen rock, and in an instant hear
the pillows roar over a sunken ship.
For, whether in mid-sea or among the
breakers of the farther shore, a wreck
