He had a very attentive hearing.
There were many Hebrews in tie
large audience. He said in part
Coming events cast their shadows
before" Startling shadows are all
about US. a great change in the af,
fairs of men is indicated and acknowl.

people. The worlds pace during the
past fifty years astonlshes everybody.

customs and theories of the past, sup:

are abandoned as worthless-in chem
istry. In manufactures. in art. In
finance and commerce. All these
changes necessitate new view Of So
cial conditions and a denomination of
the relationship OF religion and the
Bible to man and his conditions, us
seen from the, present viewpoint. The
business and social world hive been
compelled to Keep pace with the steps
of progress. some OF them cladly md
