Unrest Among the Ministers

A curious condition obtains among Christian ministers of America. as just reported by one Episcopal bishop, who is among the best known of American Christian leaders, but who must here be nameless. There are applying to him, he says, scores of ministers from other religious bodies asking him to receive them into his church. sfe is unable to do so, owing to lack or rectorates for them but he states that they are so there dearth of young men entering the seminaries for a year or two, he believes he could himself fill the demand.
 Ministers who apply 70 him are resi- dent in almost every state, and they are in practically every religious body. Asked if any Roman Catholics apply, he replied that not week passes that some do not and then they are quite as numerous in proportion as are those ap- plying from other bodies. He does not assume, he says, that his church Is over popular, but rather that there Is tre- mendous unrest among ministers, and that others besides him, in positions where they might place new men. are besieged as he says he is with appli- cants for admission into their respective churches. He says those applying are by no means young men, nor are they men who have failed ain present pastor ates He intimates that were he to give names, which he refused to do. many people would be surprised at the desire of som. men to quit prominent pulpits which ttcy now hold.

 supported as formerly, were without exception hopeful. One gave significant
 data exactly contradicting statements
 made by Catholics concerning condi- tions in colleges. and another inquired why the question were not reversed and so read not "Is Religious Faith
 Declining?" but, "Is Religious Faith Advancing?'
