very day before he was taken sick he
had gone out to carry ome flowers to
a poor sick woman living near his
summer home at Csoperstown, N. Y
The bishop was noted for his humor. and
during the most dangerous stage Of hf-
illness he was able to crack a joke o
and then. A young newspaper woman
who had arrived In New York from
the west was once sent to interview
Bishop Potter as her first assignment
She made an appointment by tele-
phone, but on account of other engage
ments was unable to be on time. How
ever, when she arrived she found the
bishop ready to receive her. He cor
daily invited her to be seated and in
quired as to the exact nature Of the
desired information.
Then in his characteristic he
dictated his statement. After the re-
porter had finished writing she cour-
teously offered to read what she had
written. The bishop insisted that he
knew it was correct and allowed it to
go without hearing II.
AS the reporter arose to take leave
she said graciously:
II thank you. Bishop Potter. and
appreciate how much 1t means for a
busy person like yourself to give your
time to reporters"
Patting her on the shoulder In a
fatherly manner. he replied:
MY dear little woman, we are both
earning our living"
The breadth of Bishop Potter's views
was Indicated In the following recent
utterance in reply to a question as to
the present religious outlook:
II am persuaded" he said, that the
movement Of religious thought today
In all lands is a movement progressive
toward a larger light and higher ideals.
A great many communions are unload
ing formularies or dogmatic state
ments which are characteristic efforts
to substitute an infallible book for an
infallible man. the modern scholar hav-
ing realized that no revelation can
really have a divine author unless IL
is progressively illuminative. This is
the point to be made clear by such a
discussion. Personally ! am In no
