istry
when our work first began to at
tract attention, general apprehension
was felt that many other clergymen
excited by what success we had met
with and without our preparation,
would rush into this work to the in
jury OF the church and to the detri-
ment of the community. Two years
and a half have passed and this ex-
pectation has not been realized. There
are at present about a dozen clergy
men in the United States who have
announced themselves as willing 80
treat certain forms OF functional dis
orders by the advice of physicians.
With scarcely an exception these are
picked men of scientific training and
Of experience in dealing with men and
women.
"The opposition we have encoun-
tered in the church has come in every
instance from men who have reached
time of life when opinions are crys-
tallized and it is difficult to accept any
thing that is new. Their real quarrel
is not with us or our work but with
the new spirit that is passing over the
world OF thought, which they are un-
able to grasp."-Dr Elwod Worcester
