Question of Re-Marriage.
In his address today the bishop
said: II think that the time has ar
rived when my own church should
deal with the question concerning re,
marriage. Although the Church OF
ENGLAND does not ADMIT the marriage
at persons who have been divorced,
the Episcopal church of this country
allows the marriage of the innocent
person in a case of infidelity.
BihOp DOane quoted from the mar
rage ritual of the prayer book TO
show that nothing but death could
sever those who have been united in
how matrimony and continued: l
think it is time that the canons OF the
church agreed with the prayer DOOR.

that has attended regular services at

A Problem We Face.
"Hc said. You in the United
States are face to face with problems
hcwildering in their greatness and
pcrplexity. No Christian nation has
ovCr hpfOro now in the worlds his
tory had to deal with such a gigantic
transfer to its own shores OF people
of other creeds and tongues and races
in different stages of civilization who
lave got TO be assimilated and com
lined and natonaliZed, and that speed
ily if harm and confusion are not to

novel questions about the suggestion
Of the incoming hosts in great racial
ClGunS an about the stamina, moral
and physical, or more who now mainly
come. Nothing, ] suppose, is more
clear in the worlds past history than
that the chief coordinating force,
where coordination was difficult, has
Iccn religious force. For us is the
rover Of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
How YOU may best bring that force to
