said all theologies are kindergarten
sta tements, and not final words. The
Rev. W. Hanson Pulsford Of Waltham,
| Mass, spoke of aitonement and the Kew
Mary A Stafford of Sioux City, Iowa,
reviewed the actual effect OF forgive
ness, saying it did not remove the men
tai consequences of rniSdeedS, but mere
ly showed q continuance of divine love
The Rev. w. /. Lawrence of Meadv1lle,
Pa, formerly a missionary in China),
made an eloquent plea for maintenance
of the Japan mission. He deprecated
the efforts made to discon tinue this
charge on account of the large outlay
required, and said its failure would
mean UNCONVENTIONAL disgrace and the
heralding of the failure of liberal relig-
ious faith in foreign field operations.
The afternoon session was devoted to
a review of Unitarian principles as re-
lated to social problems. Professor
Francis G. Peabody, D. D., of Cam
bridge, Mass, read a paper giving their
history and discussing them in a COM
prehensive way. Their modern appli-
cation was reviewed by Anna Garlin
Spencer, of Providence, r. /. She held
that the distinctive quality of the lib
eral faith is its sensitive response to
the modern philosophy of growth She
concluded:
ut is the universal uniting of charity
and reform to which the liberal church
IS especially called. Special moral re-
forms, as temperance and social pur-
ity, are linked to charitable effort, not
only through attempts to prevent vice
and crime, but by methods of isolation
and permanent custodial care of the
hayward and mentally defective which
may prevent reproduction of this kind"
A number of delegates participated
in the discussion of the subject, led by
Rev. Joseph II. Croker of Helena, Mon
tana, and Rev. p. II. buckingham of
New Bedford, Mass.

ing, was held tonight. 1.-The Outlook
of Unitarianisn" was the theme and

of All Souls church of this city, pre-
sided. The conference then adjourned
sine die.
NO YANKEE NEED APPLY.
Apparently the British authorities
feel that they have gone as far as pTu-
dence and courtesy permits in assisting
in the education Of our naval con-
structors, for the navy department has
been notified that hereafter no Ameri-
can naval officers will be permitted to
royal school of naval architecture, a
privilege which has been enjoyed by
them for many years with such signal
benefit that they have usually grad
uated at or near the head of their
classes.
The Glasgow school and that at Paris
however, are still open to our young
constructors. and with the opening of
the Cornell course on naval architec-
ture, the navy department feels it can
get along very well.
