to bring any political pressure to bear

LONDON. March 26.-Another suf-
fragette has revealed the horrors OF
forcible feeding. Miss Lillian Lenton,
just released from jail. where she had
been held without bail az a suspect in
connection with the burning of the Kew
tea pavilion. has made a statement of
her experiences in the Holloway prison.
Miss Lenton declares that she was
inhumanly and cruelty treated during
the period of her Incarceration, bearing
out in numerous details the recent let
ter of Sylvia Pankhurst to her mother
concerning the horrors of Holloway.
She says:
"On Saturday last I was forcibly fed
in Holloway prison. There were two
doctors and about seven wardresses, J
struggled with the wardresses. but wa'
overpowered and tied in chair. But
went on struggling the whole time after
that. They pulled my head backward
across the back Of the chair by my hair
which resisted by wriggling my head
about.
The Cruelty of the Tube.
Finally. one doctor got the nasaI
tube partly down, but I managed to get
it up out of the nose before they poured
anything down. Then it was introduced
again. and Immediately my breathing
became very rafting and noisy. so thai
the doctor told me 10 breathe more
quietly. I was myself worried with
the fear that my fellow prisoner might
hear this loud noise and he alarmed AZ
it. i could not help #; indeed. l was
breathing only with great difficulty and
could not speak.
THE whole time the tube was really

uously. and made a queer noise i'm

answered. Yes, go on Then something
was poured in again. I was coughing
ever so much meanwhile. Then they

The Bible as it stands is plenty
good enough to satisfy the theological
beliefs of the Methodist ministers of
Atlanta and the South generally" said
Rev. W. R. Hendrix, of the Wesley Me-
mortal church. to-day in deploring the
wrangling over the doctrinal points OF
higher criticism which threatens to
split the denomination in New York,
Pennsylvania, New Jersey and other
Eastern states into two distinct
churches.
We are too wei agreed on the di-
vine inspiration of the Book to go TO
war on this point" he added.
Dr. Hendrix is an implaCable foe of
that brand of advanced religious
thought which looks with persistent
ly skeptical eye at every word, line and
paragraph of the Scriptures.
But at the same time, he entertains
a hostility just as lively for those per
sons who make it their sole business
in life to question the orthodoxy of
their brethren and whisper their dark
suspicious that this one is "unsound'
and that one is "wavering in the faith"
So he is travelling not far from the
middle Of the theological road.
Daily Life Good Index
That the quality of a mans religion
is better determined by his attitude to-
ward his fellowman than by his ut
terances on the probabilities Of the
ailmentation of Jonah by the whale is
the philosophy of this Atlanta preacher.
And he is convinced that the major
ity of the Methodist ministers Of the
South are with him in this respect. He
grieves that these doctrinal differences
are rending the Methodist ministry of
more Northern states.
1T is not doing the church there any
good" he observed sadly. Il really am
not acquainted with the points of the
dispute up there. ! have been more
concerned for the last ten years in ind
ing out the needs of society and of
communities and individuals and how
the church may minister TO them than

tions that have arrayed the ministers

higher critics. Maybe l am a little out

count"

fancles members of the ministry who

on the possibility OF a similar reli-
gious embroglio in the South. Dr.. Hen
dirk remarked:
There are not enough extreme or
thodoX thinkers here to kick up much
of dust and those who are inclined
to be fanatical on the other side also
are in negligible numbers. It must be
admitted, though, that the Southern
Methodist, once he commits himself to

Trend Here Is Conservative.
But on the whole. there is a strong
undercurrent of conservatism pervad-
ing our belief This does not mean thai
we have ignored these questions that
have arisen. On the contrary, the
young minister is encouraged to tackle
them at once and get them settled.
THE skeptics have discounted
themselves Thirty or forty years ago
the skeptics had the ministry in con-
fusion. The men in the pulpit were
utterly at a loss to answer the doubts
cast upon the Bible by those descend
ants Of Thomas. Now the situation IS
reversed. The preachers became tho
students and scholars. and they have
shown the skeptics how untenable their
arguments are"
That there is a strong strain of or
thodoxy in his own belief, DR.. Hendrix
indicated by his remark that he could
find no reason for doubling that mira
cles were performed in early Christian
times when he considered one tran
scendent feature of his religion-the
fact that Christ was an absolutely per-
