making mighty strides over there
Only one thing | saw in the chapels and
churches I did not like That is a lack Of
appreciation Of each other as between the
national church and the dissenters. Now
each is doing great work that the other
cannot do. God speed them all--they Of
the episcopacy and they Of tho dissentersl
Come need the ritual OF the national
church and others the spontaneity Of the
Wesleyan. In the kinfSom Of God there
is room for all to work AID each in his own
way. Some people are born Episcopalians
and others Methodists and others Baptists
and others Prcsbyterians and do not let
US force our notions on others.
