PRIESTS ARE NEEDED
IN THE PHILIPPINES
Spanish War Stopped Supply From
That Nation and Many Old Priests
Have Left Islands Since.

Those who are interested lin the for
eign work of the Roman Catholic church
are much exercised because Of the
scarcity Of priests in the Philippine
islands. The matter has been discussed
by Rev. DR.. John B. Mckinley, who re-
Gently returned to Philadelphia after
having spent several years as rector of
the Diocesan seminary Of Neuva Sego-
via, in the archipelago.
The supply Of priests from Spain, he
points out, was stopped III 1898, and
many of the members of religious orders
then in the islands have since left. A
few seminaries have reopened, but 1t
will be a number of years before they
can begin to meet the demands and the
need Of the people.
How few priests there are, compared
with the large Catholic population of
the islands, is shown by figures recently
compiled by officials of the dioceses,
The diocese Of Neuva Caceras has a
population of 100000, with 107 priests
Jaro has LOG priests for 1881 ,194 PEG
pie. In Cebu there are 1873 priests and
2, 145,697 people. Manila is somewhat
better off, with 1924 priests for ,S91,
OGO pGUplo, UuU uOSG VI OACOS PA@So
it is stated, are engaged in educationa
and other nonparochial work.
According to the ecclesiastical census
total Catholic population Of the Philip
pine archipelago is 100000. For these
people there are altogether at the pres
emit time 919 priests. In other words
the average is one priest for about 1900
persons When it is recalled that the
diocese Of Chicago has one priest fo7
every 100 Catholics, New York one
for every 1850, and that in the whole
| United States the ratio is one Tor every
$50, the belief held by leading Catholic
that the number Of priests in the Phil
| ippines should be multiplied by seven, i
not without some foundation.
/ A natural result Of the scarcity O.
priests has been the abandonment o
. many fourishing missions and the laps
/ ing of some converts into paganism.

CITES FIVE ESSENTIALS
TO GLASS DISCIPLINE
Miss Longfellow, Secretary Of the State
Sunday School Association, Propounds
Valuable Advice.

Miss Grace Longfellow Of Mime
apolis, secretary of the Minnesota State
Sunday School association, gave an ad-
dress the evening Of March % in st.
Paul at the Y. M. G. A., before the st.
Paul Sunday School Teachers union, on
."Class Discipline
"There are some little boys" she
said, "who get SO they expect every
one to be down on them If you
show such a boy that you really care
for him, you will be surprised what an
effect it will have. He probably will
become the most devoted, loyal boy in
your class.
Miss Longfellow discussed her subject
under five heads, using a blackboard
for her outlines. She cited the follow
ing as the five essentials to good class
discipline:
First-Personality. This Is the at
mospheret which the teacher creates.
She must have and give the impression
Of having power in repose.
Second Conf dence. Confidence on
the part Of the teacher herself is gained
thru thoro preparation. Confidence in
the pupils is gained by always expect.
ing The best from them.
Third-Alertness. This means the
prevention Of breaks in discipline in
stead Of waiting until it is broken and
| then. trying to restore order. It also
means being on time to Sunday school
Some of the best work can be done with
the individual before class. When is a
primary teacher on timea, When she
is ahead of time.
FOURTH Common sense. This means
using sense in common things. It means
using various devices to, gain the in
terest aud attention Of the pupils. II
a boy is inattentive, direct question
at him. Common sense is necessary in
looking after the physical conditions
The ventilation should always be care
fully looked after.
Fifth-Love. And the greatest Of
these is love. It is easy to love some
children. But you should love the boy
for what you want him to be, not fo1
what he is. A little love given where
it is needed counts more than much love
given where it is not needed so much

NATION IS STIRRED BY
GREAT RELIGIOUS WAVE
AWAKENINGs EVERYWHERE AS
RESULT OF THE REVEALS.
Rev. Joshua stansfeld, Famous Evan
gelst Now in City, Observes Won
derful Quickening Of the Public Con-
science Thruout the United States
Character Soon Will Triumph.

Rev. Joshua Stansfeld, DID,, pastor
of Meridian Methodist church at In
dianapolis, and at present conducting
series of successful meetings in the
Hennepin Avenue NJ. E. church, be.
lieves that this, country is now in the
throes of a great religious awakening.
THE spirit Of revival is. abroad, -
he said in an interview given Tho
ournal, "and it is showing itself
in great many ways. It seems that
any form of prayerful evangelistic
work succeeds, tho the types Of work
differ as greatly as night and day.
"The spirit Of God evidently is work
ing nightly in the minds and hearts
of the people of the United States. A
clear evidence of this is in the quicken
ing of the public conscience. There
is more of sin in high places being ex-
posed, and it is being more severely
dealt with. Terrible things are such
exposures as have come to light in high
finance, in civil life, and in state cir
cles, but it is matter of great conn
fort to good people that there is such
quickening Of the moral sense that
such things are being heroically dealt
with.
Thinks It Will Last.
81 believe this spiritual revival
will be decidedly ethical in character.
While the emotional elements will not
be lacking, the ethical aspects will be
more marked.
"The time is coming when men, to
aspire to prominence in public life, must
necessarily be men Of high character
and clean life more than anything else.
."Their best running quality will be
clean reputation and sturdy char.

DIR. stansfeld will speak at the morn
ing and evening services in Hennepin
Avenue church Sunday, and also con-
duct services there Monday and Tues
day evenings.

LIKED AT PASADENA
People There 10th to Let DR.. Mcleod
Go to st. Paul.

People Of Pasadena, CAL, are 10th
to have DR.. Malcolm James Mcleod Of
thatacity respond to the call to the pas
torate of House Of Hope Presbyterian
church, st. Paul. ...... .....
The Pasadena News has the follow
ing to say relative to Dr. Mcleod:
"Rev. Malcolm James Mcleod, pastor
of the First Presbyterian church Of this
city, has been called to the leading
Presbyterian church Of st. Paul. Mr..
Mcleod states; that he will not be in
position to give the call consideration
until he receives the formal notice,
altho advised by telegraph Of the
church s action. Many Pasadenians
will join with the very unanimous feel
ing in Rev. Mcleod g church that Pasa-
dena needs him. He is preaching every
Sunday to the largest congregations his
church can possibly be made to- hold,
and is recognized, not only as a man Of
strong spiritual force but as one Of the
most Intellectual men in the pulpit. Dis
tinctly Of the scholars type, Rev. Nc
Leod has still kept in touch with his
people, and the large and wealthy
church; has thriven in every way under
his ministry. Its personal viewpoint
will assuredly be that it needs Rev.
Mcleod, especially now that it has a
large and costly new church building
under way. If he does not decide to
remain in Pasadena it will certainly not
be because of the absence of harmony
and good will in his church, for these
are present in the fullest measure. By
way Of speculation purely, it would
seem that if any consideration could
move Pasadena's well-beloved pastor to
go: elsewhere, it would be because con
ditions are too easy, if anything, here
He has wealthy and fashionable
church. Pasadena is not a large city
nor has it any Of the needs of large
city, which no doubt appeal to many
men in the Christian pulpit. But OF
the other hand preacher in Pasadena
addresses men from all parts Of tn,
country, and if he can inspire: then
with the truth he may work indirectl,
in many fields. At any rate the New
will hope, with his good people, tina
Rev. Mcleod s decision may be to re
main in Pasadena. --.~ .~.

FLATTERING CALL
DR.. Paxton, Now at Lynchburg, Va,
Invited to Greensboro, N. q. Il

Invited to Greensboro, NO.
DR.. James D. Paxton, predecessor Of
DR.. Boyle as pastor of the House Of
Hope Presbyterian church, st. Paul,
and now pastor Of the First Presbytert-
an church at Lynchburg, Va, has been
called to the First Presbyterian church
at Greensboro, N. G. =
The Greensboro church is one Of the
five largest and strongest Presbyterian
churches Of Che south, with member
ship Of 900. It's pulpit has been made
vacant by the resignation Of Rev. Egg
bert W. Smith, who accepted charge
in Louisville, Ky.
The Lynchburg Press, in speaking of
the call extended to DR.. Paxton, says:
cdr. Paxton has been here now nearly
two years, and during that time has
made a most acceptable pastor, while
his eloquence and learning have drawn
to his church large congregations who
have been charmed with his discourses
It is sincerely hoped by his large mum
Der Of friends here Of all denominations
that he will decide to remain in Lynch
burg, where he is SO universally ad-
mired and esteemed.

OFFICE BUILDING FOR
CHURCH NOT 4 JOKE
PLYMOUTH CHURCH TO CONSIDER
DREAM
Vision Of Member Who Saw Downtown
Church in Big Office Building May
Result in Construction Of Such a
Place Offices Needed by Congrega-
tionalists.

Dreams of "castles in the air. sell
dom come true, yet there may be real
ization of the dream of a prominent
member of Plymouth Congregational
church, recently published in TIL Q
Journa !, who imagined he saw a
structure which combined church and
an office building on the site Of the
present church.
The trustees Of Plymouth church will
hold meeting next Tuesday evening,
at which there will be discussed plan
of remodeling the church or building an
entirely new structure, which would not
only contain an auditorium for worship,
but offices as well for a general head
quarters of the Minnesota organization
of the Congregational church and its
many auxiliaries.
"The idea Of having building for
both religious worship and for office
purposes is not at all impracticable, -
said Rev: l.. H. Hallock. "That the
Congregational church is in need of
some state headquarters is an admitted
fact, and Plymouth church has been
talked of for such headquarters.
Several Offices Needed.
"The Congregational Home Mission.
airy society already has permanent state
headquarters in the church. The Con
gregational Sunday School and Publish
ing society now has state Offices In the
Phoenix building. These might be
moved to an office building church.
""In Boston and other eastern cities
there are buildings for religious worship
and for Office purposes, and there is NJ
reason there should not be here.
,"1t might be best, however, to con
fine the use of Offices in such build
ing to organizations of, and connected
with church work. -.

The new life is an charging life.
It widens as we advance. Each day s
growth reveals new greatness in it. No
man has ever yet reached it's limits.
There are possible heights Of loneliness
and usefulness which surpass our hopes
and dreams. There are depths Of COM
munion and peace which exceed our
knowledge. The greatness of the new
life is inconceivable, tho not unattain-
able. tEye hath not seen, nor ear
heard, neither hath entered into the
heart Of man the things which God hath
prepared for them that love him. y
This is true Of the Christian g life on
earth as well as for his inheritnace in
heaven.
