THE NEW CHURCH.

Rev Frank Sewell pastor Of the New
Church, has issued an attractive circular,
which is to arrest the interest Of many
who have wondered about the New
Church.
"Are you at all interested to know
what The New Church is?'' asks DR..
Sewell. You may have heard It spoken
of as 'Swedenborgianism.' and from this
undesired term you may have formed the
impression that it unduly exalts one who
never set himself up as a religious
leader, but humbly subscribed himself
Servant Of the Lord Jesus Christ You
may have thought of 1t as some mystical
cult, setting itself apart from genuine
Christianity, when in reality it stands for
a completer. unfolding of the truth Of the
unity of God. in Jesus Christ, the holi-
ness of the Bible now opened in its spir-
itual sense the development of Christian
character. and more definite knowledge
of the nature Of the life everlasting.
Should you wish to gain true idea
Of this new, Christian teaching. which
has already done much to illumine and
modify current religious thought, your at
tention is called to two special lectures
in this city, to be delivered as follows:
February 3L'What Is the New
Church,

These lectures will be delivered in the

There is Just now rejoicing at the Vati-
can over the resumption Of diplomatic
relations with Spain. These have been
interrupted for some time. the Spanish
Amba esador at the Vatican having been
handed his passports because Of the
anti-clerical legislation submitted to the
Spanish Cortes by the government. The
nuncio at Madrid was recalled. and Gre
ated q cardinal at the same consistory
as Cardinals Farley and OConnell. Now
the Spanish government. through its new
premier. has proposed to send Senior
Calbeton as Ambassador. He is a for
mer member of the cabinet, and to his
coming the Pope has consented. A new
nuncio will. of course, be named. He
will be Mgr. Reyonesi, formerly apostolic
delegate to Colombis. South America.
The change will. 1t Is believed at the
Vatican, hasten the resumption Of SINH
lar relations with France. 1t is be-
lieved that the old matter Of protec-
torate will settle itself. France IL pro-
foundly impressed, It is known. by tho
immense progress that the Catholic
Church has made in that country with
out government aid. In unexpected mum.
bers laymen have come to its assistance.
The Archbishop of Rennes, one of the
last to be in Rome, reported. that where
congregations refuse to support priests
the latter are withdrawn. The days Of
religious deadwood are over. and French
Catholics believe, 50 they tell the Pope,
that within the next decade such real
progress will be shown in France as
was never possible under old government
patronage. Spain and France are NOV
ing in the same direction, and even the
church in Portugal shows some signs Of
benefit under new conditions.

At the quarterly meeting Of the Sum

Washington held in Northminster Pres
byterian Church Monday night, Albert
NJ. Chesley, superintendent OF the Church
Of the Covenant school. presented a pa
per on What I Would Do II 1 were
Pastor Of a Church" 1t was a plea for
a programme of religious education,
which. according to Mr.. Chesley, the
average pastor lodges or only half tries.
IF 1 were pastor of my church," said
Mr.. Chesley, Il would devote the major
part of my brains. strength, and funds
to the religious education Of those under
twenty-five years Of age.
THE average pastor to-day devotes 80
per cent OF his time preparing sermons
for adults, calling on adults and attend
ing committee meetings and functions
OF adults. He assigns the care Of the
children in Sunday school, young peoples
societies. and junior organizations to
volunteers, and steps in to act as media
tor when there's trouble or hustles to
find another leader when there's a resig-
nation or a particularly poor choice.
THE way the children are not preached
to, not called upon. not dealt with in
clubs and committees one would think
that the adults were in the plastic stage
and needed the attention, while We would
surely surmise that the children's habits
were altogether formed and their re-
lfgious lives thoroughly established.''
