 n Is true that religion paralieis m sts development the progress or civilization Just as men originally dweit under trees, in caves. in tents Of skins or bark, and only after long 1 iperiods began to live In housss and cities, co their religious impuises were at first unorganized and uniilumined. From animism and from the worship of the sun and other natural objects. spiritual conceptions of life gradually arose Like all other fundamental human interests, religion rises with the growth of intellikence and social order. and like them, even in its high CT forms. stfll bears the marks of its long struggle in many survivais rom an outworn = st. It is still in the making and constantly puts forth finer forms and worthier achieve ments.
 All instinctive activities are called forth and largely determined by cfr- cuustances. The child has the -ten- doncy to express himself through speech, but, the actual development of aenguage depends upon having some one talk with him. The fage at which he acquires 1t and the kind < of lanruags he employs arc determined
  It 1s contact with his fellows which gives him the cue and the discipline Of speech and without # he would not use 1t at all In the same way re- iigious development waits upon, oppor- tunities. These may come almost inn- psroeptibly through the home and the social atmosphere.
 Sometimes new friendship. new personal contact unIocks the dormant nature. It was apparently so with zaccheus. AS : publican he was an outcast and had found men hard. close and suspicious to deal with. But In an unexpected moment he took q walk with Jesus and enjoyed the com panionship of q man who seemed to trust him and to recognize the better fmpulsss within him. It was novel experience and at . stroke oyercarne all his habits as . taxsatherer and q selfish money maker. It must have been q profound impression which could lead one of his iIk to give half his goods to the poor and promise to restore fourtcld- to any. man he had wronged
