The professors of literature who de-
vote much of their time to teaching the
average student to appreciate the beau
ty of a poem or drama by pointing out
its more obvious excellences are called
old-fashioned." observes the stan
dard' (i3apt) of Chicago. The read
ing aloud of literary classics, which is
the best and almost the only way of
testing true literary appreciation. is
utterly neglected by most teachers of
literature, and relegated to the despised
eiocutionist. The time of the class is
too valuable, they think: there are too
many essays to be written on the uses
of the datiye or the mutations OF VOW
els. The student must not be allowed
TO introduce the personal equation into
his criticism: he must feel no emotion
except of the sort prescribed by the
established estimates of the author.
All this has it's bearing on the study
of the Bible. Here, as elsewhere. it Is
a superficial judgment which denies -
analytical study a due place. Without
such study, carried on with scientific
precision and scholarly methods by
trained men, progress in knowledge is
impossible. The church can never
safely settle down content with her
