TAKES MEASURE OF MAN.
Rev, DR., SewaII Continues Course
on Christian Economics.


In the second lecture OF his course on
Christian Economics" Rev. D.. Frank
Sewall. at the New Church. last night
took for his subject. The measure Of a
man. as applied 10 nature and society.
He cOntrasted the forms Of civilization
as impressed upon the mass from with
out, and that form which comes from
the force OF a divine or creative idea
The latter, he declared. are life and
growth. while the former Is simply a
mistaken effort OF much reformatory
legisiation-the putting a mold upon clay.
instead Of inspiring by religion and edu-
cation q growth from within.
Man. as compared with nature. DR..
Sewan declared, is a social animal In
Ike the lower creatures. which depend
only on their material environments
man depends on the entire environment
not only Of nature, but OF the social
world
DR.. Sewall said man could not live In
utter isolation, that his various gifts
and empIoyments, each working in har-
mony with the other, were absolutely
necessary. He gave illustrations to back
up his arguments.

The ingenuity OF Inventors and

improve the quality Of articles having

in increasing sales and preventing
competition. This has been so in the
