Rev. DIR. FrizzeH Delivers Lecture
ON Medieval Christianity.

Rev. DIR. ]. W. Frizzell, pastor of
Ingram Memorial Congregational Church,
delivered a lecture last night on THE
Success and Failure of Medieval Chris

to establish a brotherhood of love and
service, a righteous cooperative COM

and how His disciples failed to undertake
His task in a large way, because they
did not fully understand Christ and His
programme.

Loves Labor Lost?

An important group of members of
the Swiss Parliament have taken the
initiative to invite French and Ger
man parliamentarians to a conference
which was held recently at Berne, with
the object of seeking means to bring
about a rspprochement between France
and Germany This is so daring a
novelty in diplomacy that no one has
dared, heretofore, to even breach it,
and yet the members of both houses
of the French Diet (who so often
have been represented as strenuously
opposed TO any idea of reconciliation
with Germany have responded with
eagerness.
About $50 Deputies and Senator'S, in
principle at least, accepted the invita-
ton. The parliamentary arbitration

dEstournelles de Constant presides.
convened the various groups of
the French Parliament to consider
the matter The Socialists accepted
the idea of such a conference with en-
thusiasm. They and the Independent
Socialists both were represented.
But at the meetings of the French
Radical Republicans and the Socialist
groups a delicate question was raised.
Would there be more French delegates
at Berne or German? As a matter
of fact, the members of the Reichstag,
apart from the Socialists, have re-
sponded to the interesting initiative of
the Swiss Parliament with little eager
ness. The Frenchmen expressed
desire that there should be an equal
number of delegates from each coun-
try, but all this was to be settled at
