prepare and preach two sermons week

per on, from an intele> tual point OF view
No such intellectual task is set for any
other class o. men than the ministers.
and Ii is nothing to their discredit that
| they fail In attempting to do the i'm
possible A certain number of people
will attend church from religious interest
or from sense of duty, and others oc-
casionally. But it is not reasonable TO
expect people in these days who are not
, moved by religion or duty to attend
| regularly church services as now con-
| Quoted. If the people generally are to
to drawn to church there must be en-
] tirely new methods devised for church
i services and for the labors Of ministers
| In considering this problem it Is worth
noting that, as a rule. the pastors
services are more appreciated the longer
minister stays with a church. The
better he becomes acqua nted with the
people the better he can minister to
them in their sorrows and trials and
family life. What is needed is not more
frequent change of pastors. but g eater
variety in preachers and in serv .ces We

and allow him to continue his paste. al
work with the same people as lon: it
may seem best. but which win provide
for constant change of preachers ard
variety of services in every church. In
many churches the complaint is now
that the preparation of two sermons a
week does not allow the minister time
to visit among the people as he ought
If he had to prepare but two ermons
month he cou' d devote ample time to
his pastoral work, which would then be-
come far more effective than now. He
could invite people to church, greet them
when they came, and the pleasing
varieties In services would hold them to
the habit Of church attendance.

Mr.. Drexel is now only twenty-five
years of age. and during a large part of
his life has lived in Europe. Some time
ago he came very prominently into the
public prints by reason of his announced
enga cement to Hattie Forsythe an
actress. the chum of Evelyn Thaw.
But if there was any truth in the
rumor. which is doubtful, Mr.. Drexel sue
ceeded in recovering most comfortably
rom n lnfaluation. for he is most
devoted sutton for Miss Gould.
The great banking house of Drexel g.
y. owes its origin to Francis Mar
tin Drexe, who was born in the Austrian
Ty oil in 1892, left that country to avoid
description during the Napoleonic wars
and studied painting in Berne. He came
TO the United States in 1917 and settled
IN PhIlaue ph,a, where he ngaged II POI

His son. Anthony J. Drexel, was born

thirteen years of age and while his school
studies were still uncOmpletad. Subsequent
to that period the history of the banking
house was the history of his life and it's
great prog ess, high reputation and wide
spread influence were of his making.
1t is said that as a result of this we'd
ding the United States will see more of

Anthony j. Drexel. father Of the BRIDE
groom, is one of the best known of Ame.-
the closest kind of relationship with King
Edward, being his frequent companion at
racing and other events of a sporting

He is averse to coming back to the
United States to make his residence, but
the int ests of the family are said to
require an American head, and Mr..
KEEL, jr., will take up this important
post.

so obvious as to furnish sufficient reason

There is the additional reason that the

il from it's historic associations dimin-
ishes both it's own interest and the In
terest of the patriotic shrine to which 1t
belongs. If any other argument be needed
to keep the bell at home. the considera-
ton of it's physical safety Is altogether
pertinent.
