MEDICAL MISSIONARY
LECTURES ON INDIA
DR.. Bertha Caldwell De-
scrlbes AlIahabad.

DR.. Bertha Caldwell, medical mission
airy at Allahahad. India, delivered an
| address at the Fourth Presbyterian
Church. Thirteenth and Yale Streets
northwest. last night. under the aus
pices of the Womens Missionary So
ciety.
DR.. Caldwell recently returned from
India, where she has been connected with
the hospitals and missions at Allaha-
bad. The city is known throughout In
dia as the holy" city, because of the
great number of converts not only from
the native classes, but from the English
and other nationalities. Last year the
number of converts among the heathen
was twenty-five per cent more than
that of the preceding year and that of
others to the teachings of the Presby
terian faith was one hundred and
twenty-five greater.
The population of the city is 200. .OO0
and last year $4,000 women patients
were treated at the different hospitals
there. Medical and missionary work In
India. according to DR.. Caldwell. pre-
sents a great field for labor. The natives
are willing students and adhere to the
faith.
DR.. Caldwell will speak at Westmin-
ster Church Wednesday afternoon when
she will outline hospital and missionary
work in India and endeavor to adequate
ly describe existing conditions in the
Orient.

said that the outcome has not been sal

I'm the modern world the search for
speculative truth has largely been su-

the facts of nature and life. The su-

ii inspires of getting at some solution
of the eternal problems. But those who
have best insight now perceive that this
hope is illusory. If all the facts from
the beginning of time until the present
moment were known in all their details,
the infinite mystery would remain unil-
lumined- Science has transformed and

MISSIONARY WORK IN
TENNESSEE MOUNTAINS
Mr.. Claiborne Describes Life
Among the Clouds

| The responsibility of the nation and OF
residents of the Tennessee mountains,
the former to educate. and the latter
TO make known the gospel, was the sub
Ject OF an interesting discourse at st.
Johns Church. Georgetown. yesterday
morning by the Rev. w. 5. Claiborne.
Although young man. Mr.. Claiborne
has spent some years with the noun
taineers as rector OF the Swanee parish.
He was delegate to the mission council
of the Episcopal Church at Philadelphia,
which has just concluded its sessions.
The conditions existing in the noun
tains, with the innumerable Illicit dis
tilleries. were described at some length,
as were the conditions leading to the
and the antagonism to revenue officers.
who are looked upon as the common
enemy OF The mountaineers.
Despite the little regard for the laws
of the land, these people have an IN
written code of their own, which'is more
SeHefHlly observed IMAM are tLG laws
of our big cities.
He stated that wonderful improve
ment was evidenced wherever the teach
ings of the church were carried and secu-
lar schools were established. In one To-
cality, where 1t was once dangerous to
even mention the name of revenue Of
ficer, there had been no illicit dis
tilleries for four years.
The good qualities of the people were
described in glowing terms-promlnent
among them being an intense loyalty to
all people in whom they trusted. Their
inborn qualities are readily developed
for the good of the community, manv of
them having attained positions of prom
inence and esteem. One of them is now
United States Senator.
A recent innovation that is promising
the best results is the establishment
of district schools. These are particu-
larly for the girls, who are there taught
everything, from putting on their dresses
to saying their prayers.
Mr.. Claiborne will leave the city to-
day for the North. He will preach next
Sunday in Bridgeport, Conn. and the
following Sunday in Philadelphia, before
returning to his charge.

Christian Life NOT a
Penance BW a Pnulege

He is the greatest enemy of re-
ligion who would make 1t irkscme
and contrary to common sense.
Most people talk religion IN an
| unnatural tone. The moment they
change the subject and talk about
anything else their faces light lip
like sunrise. and at once give the
impression that they have come out
OF the irksomeness OF religion into
that which is natural.
This joyless view of religion. SO
inconsistent with the teachings OF
the New Testament, keeps many
conscientious people out of the
church.
Christianity draws the line at the
sinful things; at the things that
harm. The Christian life Is not
penance; it is a privilege"
