Christendom, the new American
weekly, will not be the organ of any
institution, of any man, or of any
party. It's articles will be authorita-
tive, but not academic; progressive,
but not radical; religious, but not
theological. AS the name implies,
it's scope will not be limited to any
section, or to any country.
AS the spring comes on apace,
and it is warm enough so that one
may stand out doors without dis
comfort at the "marge of evening"
and view with delight the beauties
of the western sky where the sun
leaves a tinge of crimson and gold
he sees an added beauty in the re-
turn of Venus. This most brilliant
of stars is now apparent in the
evening.
Every voter who goes to the polls
should vote on the amendment to
the constitution authorizing the ad-
dition of two judges to the Supreme
court 1t is customary thing for
most voters, or at least many voters,
to ignore the amendment and the
consequences are that an amend
ment is carried by proportional1y a

in the amendment and either vote
for or against it.

tional progress, viz: that there is
imperative need of a journal which
should discuss, week by week, in
the spirit of enlightened Christian
ity, not only the worlds most i'm
portant news developments along
all lines, but also the pressing
problems of politics, religion, edu-
cation and sociology, which are en-
crossing the minds of the inte1li-
gent, broad-ninded men and women
Of to-day.
DR.. Hirsch, who lectures here the
10Th, is perhaps the most eminent
Jewish divine in this country, if not
in the world. He has five or six
lectures that he is giving upon occa-
sions this season, among which are;
Facts and Fictions about the
Jews;" "The Civilization of the
Sen1ites;" 1.-THE Bible as Ancient
Hebrew Literature;;" Zone Hour
with the Masters of the Talmud;'
"Mohammed and the Islam" 1t
may be surmised that DR.. Hirsch
has made himself master of the sub
jects which he discusses, in which
event it may be readily seen that
his lecture here, whichever of the
subjects he has in hand, will be o.
profound interest.
