M E. CHuRcHs MARVELLOUS GROWTH.
Its Position on the Liquor Question Agains
Debauching Amusements.
(By the Associated Press

Chicago. Ills. May 3.-The feature today
at the Methodist General Conference was
the reading of the Bishops quadrennial
address by Bishop E. G. Andrews The
address was prepared at recent meeting
of the Board of Bishops in Indianapolis.
1t showed that during the past hundred
years the Methodist Episcopal church had
developed ninety-seven fold
The Bishops address stated that the
church will not abandon its position on
the liquor question. On the contrary
aroused and indignant at the agrees
sions of the liquor power. at the mex
cusable miscarriage of the antl-canteen
law, and at the new perils in which the
nation is involving it's new possessions,
ii will summon and pledge all our minis
tiers and people to more determined
struggle against this enormous evil.
AS to marriage and divorce, the ad-
dress continued:
I'm the presence of this evil the church
cannot allow its rules on the subject or
divorce and remarriage to be in any
case imperative and vCid. Let, If need
be- the church law be amended to more
perfectly express the New Testament
rule of marriage. But by the voice OF its
public assemblies, by its pulpits, and by
the judcous exercise of discipline, the
church should keep itself pure, and aid
the civil law and the practices of society
to become pure.
CLOSELY associated with these evils is
the popular passion for unwholesome,
coarse and debauching amusements.
Whoever watches the daily press cannot
miss the evidence of the shameful degra-
datiCn in the theatre, concert and dance
hall, and on the race course. And the
tendency to great excess also in other
comparatively innocent forms OF akuse-
ment cannot escape attention Inc
seriousness of life seems largely forgot
ten, its opportunities of usefulness less
occupied, the vigilance necessary for
righteousness relaxed, and the love of the
passing world gaining in masterfulness.
1t is not to be wondered at that every
earnest age has tended to reprobate all
amusements as Incompatible with the
Christian life Experience has shown that
it is impossible to impose on youthful
and immature Christians a law which
many sanity soul. of thoughtful choice
imposes on itself. The attempt to enforce
absolute abstinence from recreative
amusement reacts toward unrestrained
indulgence A discrimination between
the admissible and the inadmissible, is
therefore, imperative. So great is the
danger to spiritual life that we suggest
that it would be profitable to place among
the special advices of the discipline a
brief but cogent statement of the pCIils
which attach to many amusements, of the
evils inseparable from others, and of the
principles by which the Christian should
regulate his choice among and his use
of them
The address recommends either the
abolition of the time limit pastorates
or a return to the old three-year limit
| rule.
