EPISCOPAL.

Rev. DR.. G. C. BratenahI, Of Washing
ton' secretary Of the province OF WASH
ington, returned to the city yesterday
from week spent in Baltimore, where
he delivered several addresses relating
to the forward movement in missions.
One Of the principal meetings of the
week was the mass meeting OF Sunday
evening at the Lyric Theater.
On Thursday evening at a meeting
and dinner held at the Hotel Belvedere
the speakers, besides DIR. Bratenahl,
were Rev. DR.. William NJ. Grosvenor,
dean Of the Cathedral of st. John the
Divine, New York; John Stuart Bryan.
editor of the Richmond Times-Dispatch
and member of the executive committee
Of the province of Washington, and
Bishop Murray, OF Baltimore, president
OF the provincial synod.
DR.. Bratenahl in his address after the
dinner made a passing reference to the
war in Europe, saying 1t had two great
lessons for churchmen everywhere. One
of these was that of loyalty, for the men
engaged in the struggle were making
every possible sacrifice that men could
make for their nations and their homes;
and the other was the lesson OF efficient
organization, or rather efficiency through
organization. He hoped that both these
lessons would be applied to the church
and its work.
