WHY JEWS CANNOT BE CHRISTIANS


The American Hebrew.
The divine origin Of Jesus can never find
acceptance with our people. His claim
also as the greatest teacher Of humanity
can never be substantiated as long as we
have Moses and the prophets, Job and
the Psalms. Our laws come through the
sons of Amram. our exhortations TO right
eousness from the sacred seers. our sub
mission TO Gods viii from the dweller OF
IL. our sweet sentiments OF love and graf
itude from the royal singer. The Old
Testament indeed places emphasis on the
element OF righteousness. yet love finds
expression throughout these writings, par
ticularly in the Psalms. Nowhere can we
find a better defnition-if definition be
possible-of religion than in Micah's ut
terance: He hath told thee. o man. what
is good and what the Lord requireth of
thee: only 10 do justice, to love kindness
and TO walk humbly with thy God.
Hillel also taught the golden rule before
Jesus; have we not. for this and still bet
ter reasons chosen him as the exponent of
Jewih ideal and practice. In studying his
life and pondering upon his sayings can
we not learn much of loving kindness,
gentleuess. humility and piety? The eth
les of the fathers set forth what the fora
took as its premise, "He that loveth God
loveth hsi fellow beings; he that loveth
his fellow beings, loveth God

BENEFIT OF LONG TERN PASTOR
ATES.
The Waterman.

The Waterman.
"One of the advantages OF a long
pastorate is that it cCmpels the preach
er to dig into the depths Of Gospel
truth. to avoid sameness and repetition.
This is exactly contrary to the popular
impression. We have often heard men
say that by a change Of pastorates they
would gain time for study and more
thorough investigation of the great
Christian themes. As a matter OF 1act'
the men who change pastorates every
few wears do not usually study as
broadly and deeply as those who re-
main in one place for years. The for
mer find that they can use their old
preparations. and that there are a good
many claims upon them besides those
OF patient thought and investigation.
The latter are forced to study. There
is a limit beyond which Old sermons
cannot be preached to the same congre-
cation.

SERVICES FOR THE DEAD.


one of the most remarkable instances
OF the growth of Catholic principles
among US. GIigh Church Episcopaliansl
as well as evidences of the appreciation Of
these principles by the laity, is the list
published in The Angelus of churches IN
which special services for the dead were
held during the month of November. The
list we know TO be incomplete; many
masses for the dead have been said which
are not there recorded. but as it stands
IL speaks volumes. In thirty-tour
churches vespers for the dead were pub
lcly reclted on the eve of All Souls Day;
in sixty churches requiem masses were
celebrated on All Souls Day, and for the
month of November 2d masses for the
dead were announced by The Angelus.
When it is remembered that so recently
as ten years ago the use of the term re
ouiem mass" always drew srtom of vio-
lent words. the decline of prejudice
against prayers for the dead is very ap-
parent.

favor. 1t has many things TO commend

and much is done thereby to overcome
that opposition to it which, strange to
say. obtains in some places. Public in

officers and increases their dignity in the
estimation not only of those who are in

ranks. 1t adds dignity TO league work
and helps in impressins on all the work
of the chapter that spirit of religious So

should possess. 1t affords an opportunity
for impressing on the minds of the new
~ chosen officers the Importance Of their
