Workers to Organize

For dozen years, perhaps more Con-
gregationalists have been discussing ef-
Siciency plans. especially in missionary
work and in publications. Throughout
al conferences seem to have run theo-
rles that there ought to be as much cen
tralized authority as possible without
rpseting Puritan history and convictions.
A proposal that was most to be re-
marked. and that brought out greatest
discussion and criticism, was one to
make q secretary who should be, in du-
ties and authority, comparable with the
Presbyterian general assembly modera-
tor or the Episcopal presiding bishop.
A committee has just made its final
report after hearing suggestions and
criticisms FOR two years. This commit
tee recommends that national council
n voluntary body heretofore meeting
once in three years, meet hereafter every

proposal that there be a central body

ever, guards chosen from beyond the
limits of the Roman province are to
have only honorary uositions, without
salaries. They will be. compelled to
provide their own uniforms, which are
expensive and snowy. and TO maintain
themselves outside OF the vatican
whereas those from the province who
receive salaries will be cared for with

The new order is popular in the Cath

Successful Chautauqua Weeks

Two successful winter weeks were
conducted this month by Chautauqua
institution at Bradford, Pa. in co-ope-
ration with the Ministerial union, and
at Olean. n. Y, with the First Method
ist church. On the preceding Sunday
Bishop John II. Vincent preached at
the morning service the chautauqua
vesper service was held in the after
noon. and an evening address was CIV
en- by Meddie o. Hamilton, field secre-
tary. The programme continued for
five days, offering two series of morn
ing hours, and an afternoon and eve-
ming lecture or address.
Mrs. Ida b. Cole, field secretary, gave
domestic science demonstrations for the
housewives, illustrated art and crafts
manship lectures for clubs and high
schcl students. and popular addresses
on newspaper work and home study
Bishop Vincent gave
his five day series of studies in church
life and his famous lecture on THAT
Boy" Miss Hamilton's lectures on lit
erary subjects were supplemented by
an experience story of "Chautauqua
and the Community" Single addresses
were given by other members of the
institution. and conferences were held
with groups of persons interested in
local uplift movements. n
The response in these smaller citiees
to programme of this education value
and inspiration character from which
the usual entertainment features were
cut out, is declared to be striking.
Sales of course and single tickets more
than paid expenses, and repetition of
the Chautauqua weeks next year has

American Chief British Rabbi

Jews of England have a unique po-
sition TO bestow, one that is wholly un-
like ANYTHING Jews of America, far
greater in numbers, give TO anyone
1t is that of Chief Rabbi. In sense
n Is the highest honor that can come
to jew in our day. Tne cnlef Is raooi
of what is known as the great syna-
goeue. located in Dukes Place, in the
east end of London. 1t is the Oldest
svna gogue in the city and now situ-
ated in the most delightful place OF res
dence in the world. The chief must
maintain an office there, but is not
required himself to live there
The chief rabbi is supreme In spirit
ual affairs of Jews in Great Britain
and all colonies He makes pastoral
visits in England, but so far as known
has never yet visited Canada and Aus
tralia. Jews of London are ultra con-
seryative in belief, and they number
about 100000. with some scattering con-
eregations throughout the provinces.
There are two reformed congregations
in London, but they number hardly
more than 1000 members in all. Gu
riously. the foremost rabbi of these re-
formed Jews is an American, so that
America is furnishing heads for both
wings of British Judaism.
The Rev Joseph II. Hertz of New
York, who has just been chosen chief
rabbi of Great Britain, at salary of
$4,000 year and a pension for his
family, is only thirtyeight years of
age and was educated in New York
city He has served as rabbi in Jo-
hannesburg, South Africa. Principal
reasons why an American was chosen
an innovation, was the decision of Brit
ish Jews to elect one who could speak
English. That shut out many of the
foremost London rabbis. OF those that
were left some local jealousy played its
part, and an American choice was the

that Congregationalists secure by these
means larger control over administration

consolidation of societies is looked for
ward to.
The secretaryships, the powers of which
we're thought by many TO be extraordi-
nary, is still recommended, but with less
authority than at first suggested. Tie
whole matter was put forward by the. ma

and destructive, was invited in order to
learn the mind of Congregationalists.

Noonday Services During Lent

+ Where churches in business sections of
cities are not available, theatres and
halls, sometimes chamber of commerce
buildings, are being employed this Lent
for MONDAY religious services for busi-
ness people The numbers of these SER
vices has grown markedly within the
past five years, and there has been an in
crease this present Lent of twenty per
cent The increase in the number OF
women in business offices has greatly in
creased attendance at these MONDAY ser
vices, until in some down town churches
the moonday services far surpass the
Sunday ones In numbers at them.
In St Louis the Garrick theatre Is
used. In Pittsburg Trinity church is
employed. In Philadelphia three down
tcwn churches are utilized. In Boston
the New St Paul's cathedral, which is
old St Pauls church in fremont street,
and Trinity in Copley square, have SER
vices Little Rock and Montgomery IRE
places that are getting under way with
these services. Cincinnati used the Lyric
theatre and has Bishop-elect Reese OF
Columbus as a speaker The Br5therhcod
of st, Andrew leads in promoting these
services but others are assisting. In New
York city, including Brooklyn, the num-
ber OF such services is now fourteen.
and attendance at all of them is not far
from 100000.
Two things that are new III TINS move
ment appear this Lent. One Is CathoIc
churches have conferences and masses
but the idea is the same. The other new
thing is the vast number of people who
go into the theatres and churches in
n, ornings and afternoons, before and af-
ter services, sit down, read religious
literature and pray. 1t is reported tnat
in some cities the numbers who attend
when no services are going on IS conf
parable with those who go to the SER
vices themselves. 1t is happening mere
fore that SOME of the down town
chm ches are now seeing their largest
weave of relipiops usefulness.
