Brooks bnce said, is the only kind of
unity that any church should have. This
principle was abundantly illustrated at
this congress. The Episcopal church
showed that it held very many views
in one spirit ON every subject that came
up for discussion. The two most live
subjects were gambling and psychic
therapy.
Dir. Darlington of New York fatty
declared that healing was no business
of the minister and Dr. McComb Of En-
manuel church declared that doctors
were sending their patients to his church
TO be healed
He declared that the attitude Of
the doctors was that if people cannot
be cured in the orthodox way they could
not be cured at all. The clergy were in
fiat opposition to each other on the
subject
''lt was the unique feature Of this
congress that the operations on the
stock exchange were put before the peo-
pie of the Episcopal church as largely
benefcient and orthodox and that it was
only an exceedingly small part of the
transactions that were illegitimate,
