GREAT RELIGIOUS AWAKENING
 IS BEGINNING IN AMERICA

preachers, women and laymen all work together for the same end there Is bound to be progress. That Is progression in America"
 pr. Jowett has very strong ideas on the divorce question.
 There is grave danger to society," he said, 'in any tampering with the sacred ness of the marriage tie. The home is the foundation of society and divorce Is unquestlonably an enemy of the home. do not know that I should go so far that divorce IS under no circumstances justified, but I thoroughly believe there is grave danger when we admit other causes for 1t than those laid down in the Bible.
 There are unhappy maria ges where hardship, Is worked on individ- uals by holding them together but viduals must endure hardships for the good of the community
 pr. Jowett Is emphatically great preacher, preacher on the order of Parker and Sturgeon. He has a mag nifcent voice, a gift of lucid and str1k- ing speech and his manner in the pull pit is graceful and winsome. His ges- lures, though unstudied seem to be the perfect expression of every word. He has a flexibility and alertness Of body which comparatively few think CTS and students preserve after 4O Ills tall. slender figure has lost nothing of the young mans supleness. He looks like one in perfect training.
 Dr. Jowett preached in the Fifth avenue church last summer ana two summers ago he was accompanied on his visit to this country by Mrs. Jowett.

London, January 2s.-(Special. )-"Amer- lea is at the beginning of great religious revival which will have a profound in- fiuence on the whole world.'
 This statement was made to me today by Rev. Dr. J. H. Jowett, pastor of the Corrs Lane Congregational church at Birmingham, who has just accepted a call to the passionate of the Fifth Ave nue Presbyterian church, the richest church of that denomination in America. Dr. Jowett is the leading non-conformist clergyman In Great Britain, and has been called the Henry Ward Beecher of Eng land. He is president of the Free Church council.
 Yes" he continued. America is the land of promise, and the prospect of hav- ing a place in this great movement is what has led me to accept call to your country. When men of great affairs turn their attention to spiritual things, as they are doing in America, 1t means an awakening which must have big re- suits. The layman's missionary move ment I regard as one of the most sig rifcant evidences of this awakening.
 "Of late years there has been too much of a disposition to leave religious affairs to preachers and women, to put them aside as hardly worthy of the attention of business men. Don't understand me as belittling preachers and women. They both have high places in the economy of the church, but there is also an absolute necessity for the strong men. When

MRS. NIX IS STILL
 HOLDING OFFICE

Washington, January 8.-(Special)- The great victory" won by the forces of P. D. Barker in throwing out the Fort Payne postmistress, Mrs. Ella G. Nix, the widow of Confederate soldier, and putting in her place one of Barkers po- litical henchmen, George l.. Malone, will be nullified by the announcement of Sem ator Bankhead today that Malone will not be confirmed by the Senate. Colonel Bankhead stated that he would oppose Malone's confirmation and he felt certain that no action would be taken at this session. After that 1t Is, of course, the privilege of the President to give Malone g. recess appointment, This would place him in charge of the office. When Con- gress adjourns Senator Bankhead will take the matter up with the President but whether he will succeed in having Mrs. Nix retained is doubtful. In the meantime Mrs. Nix will hold the little office regardless of Barker.
