can never Iall o1Ller III what 1t
does for an individual or nation:
but weakened and inefficient types
of Christianity have failed and
will continue to do so. This, both
the rationalistic type in Germany
and the ritualistic type in the Ro-
man Catholic countries have done.
Is the type now prevailing in
America succeeding or failing?
If it is falling short, where is it
detective? This is a question of
the most profound and far-reach-
ing importance.
We cannot now discuss this
question comprehensively, but
there are one or two observations
that we desire to make:
First-There is grave peril in
the decadence of the religious
home life of the American people.
None of the modern organizations
and devices, however much they
are to be commended, can take the
place of home example, home au-
thority and home teaching. Their
relations to the young is too re-
mote and their touch too super
fetal and intermittent. True and
faithful Christian parents, seeking
to do their whole duty to their
offspring in the fear of God, can
alone successfully train our youth.
We may as square y face the fact
that if Christian homes of the
purest and best type cease to exist
Christianity will have been struck
tremendously damaging, if not a
really fatal blow. No matter how
much it may beat the tom-toms
and fly the flag of reform, any
movement that tends to weaken the
religious family life of our people
must in the end prove hurtful.
Second-Cnly spiritual Chris
tianity in its truest and deepest
significance is adequate to cope
with the forces of evil and save
mankind. There is none of it. to
spare in the work of destroying
sin in human hearts and making
them pure and upright. The

WILL NOT STOP SENDING
OF AMERICAN NOTE

WASHINGTON. June 22.-The memo

summarizing measures adopted to
alleviate difficulties to neutral traders
under the order in council will not, it
is understood, affect the sending OF
the note to Great Britain now in
preparation. This communication is to
relteratc the American protest against
the illegality of the principles in the
order in council.
While the measures which are un-
derstood to be outlined I'm the British
memorandum are aimed to correct
troubles experienced by Americans in
their trade with neutral countries, the
United States insisted in the note of
March 30-its last communication on
the subjcct--that England had no right
under international law to stop nom
contraband goods of American owner
ship passing to and from Germany
through neutral countries. n blockade
being held as effective only against
belligerent country itself.
