gelistic campaigns in colleges, the
rapid spread of Christian publicity, the
manifest increase of the spirit of So
cial justice and altruism throughout
the land; the enormous largese poured
out for war relief and the assistance
or the unemployed; the rapid growth
of militant temperance-all these
preSent-day factors can be explained
by a deep revival of religion.
Along with these ethical expressions
of the present spiritual tendencies has
gone a new doctrinal emphasis which
explains why Holy Week, the celebra-
ton of the Passion of Jesus, should
be so definitely appealing. At Phila-
delphia, the Unitarians, whom Billy
Sunday had elsewhere attacked, pre-
ceded his revival by a vigorous on
slaught upon him and upon orthodoxy.
They announced n systematic cam

a New Week of Prayer
Historically, the first week in Janu-
airy has been the Week of Prayer
in the Protestant churches. OF late
years there has developed tendency
to shift this observance to Holy Week.
This drift is so strong that the Fed
eral Council of Churches has issued
a list of suggested subjects for these
meetings, with intimations to guide
the thought of worshippers and
preachers. The Federal Council secre-
tary says that these are especially de-
signed for the rural churches.
Formerly many of the Protestant
churches were so afraid of conform
ing to the usages of the Roman Cath
olic and other liturgical bodies that
they refused to recognize Holy Week,
or Lent. That is one reason why the
first week of the year was arbitrarily
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1915-03-26

Not since the spirit-stirring days of
the Civil War has America been in
such a religious mood as Holy Week,
1915, discovers.
Because there is no agency to col
late the unusual spiritual phenomena
from the whole country. many per-
sons are not aware that, nationally,
the land is deeply stirred concerning
the things of the spiritual life.
While the great BILLY" Sunday
campaign in Philadelphia, which
closed a week ago, with about forty
thousand "trailhitters," has been the
focus of nationwide interest and dis
cussion, there have also been literally
hundreds of equally sympathetic re-
vival meetings under way in all parts
of the continent. Pennsylvania, prob
ably more than any other State, has
been the scene of union evangelistic
services, with tabernacles especially
erected, but there is no part of the
land that has not displayed some sim
liar symptoms of spiritual interest.
Now Holy Week. which falls on
March 28, April 8, gives even a more
general revelation of the fact that the
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1915-03-26

chosen by the Evangelical Alliance as
the Week of Prayer. Now, Presbyter-
tans, Methodists, Baptists and Con-
gregationalists, as we'll as Catholics,
Episcopalians, Lutherans and Mora
vians, are keeping Lent. This unity
In spiritual exercises is one of the
deeper, quieter signs that the churches
are getting together. Many of the
great cities have a dozen or n score
of general noon day Lenten meetings
in operation, in churches of four of
five different denominations.
Unifying Nationwide Thought
Themes for the seven days of Holy
Week services have been suggested by
the Federal Council of Churches.
They are as follows:
Sunday-"Unity in Christ" That the
spirit of Christian unity may be quick
ened and deepened in all churches:
that all disciples may be drawn closer
to Christ and thus to each other find
ing in Him the one center of faith,
life and service.-John II: 2O-23.
Monday-"Christ's Evangel." That
the spirit of Him who said, 81 am
come to seek and to save that which
was lost" may inspire His followers
with holy zeal for teh salvation of
men. That the churches may engage
in special efforts to this end. That a
tide of evangelism may sweep over
the land.-Matthew Q: 35-3S.
Tuesday-"Christ and the Nations"
That our country may continue in
peace with all the world, and may
maintain such spirit of justice, sym
pathy and helpfulness as shall enable
1t, when the proper time comes, to
serve the nations in the interests of
universal and abiding peace. That
the divine blessing may rest upon all
undertakings to relieve distress, suf-
fering and hunger resulting from war,
or from home conditions of unemploy-
ment and want. That the hearts of
the stricken people may be prepared
for new era of human brotherhood
based on the principles taught and
%: 27-4O.
dnesday-"Christ and World
Missions" That Christ's Great Com
mission may be more fully carried out.
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1915-03-26

That the divine blessing may rest
upon all missionary agencies at home
and abroad. That the churches may
awake to the urgent duty of evange-
lizing those who come from other
lands.-Matthew 28: 1920.
Thursday-"Christ and the Home,
Education and the Sabbath" That
the home life of our nation may be
preserved from the perils which
threaten to engulf it. That the scan
dal of divorce may be checked That
the sacredness of marriage and the
family ties may be realized anew.
That the family altar may be re-
established in Christian homes. That
the proper observance of the Lords
Day may be taught and practiced by
all Christians. That the Christian
spirit may permeate all our schools
II. Tim. 2: 1-2; Eph. 6: 1-9.
Friday-"Christ on the Cross" That
Christians may better understand the
profound significance of the Cross,
and the spirit of Him who died there
on, "the Precipitation for our sins; and
not for ours only, but also for the sins
of the whole world" That the same
spirit of self sacrificing Love may
dwell in His disciples. That all peo-
Piles may find in Christ the way of
saving health and everlasting life
Matthew 27: 46; Luke %: 34-46.
Saturday-"Christ and Social Serv-
ice." That temperance may be rec
ognized as essential to all social i'm
provement, until our nation is freed
from the evil of the liquor traffic.
That the Christian churches may come
to deeper realization of present social
conditions which demand the united
action of all good citizens.-Matthew
23: SIP; Matthew z: 12-22-23.

armor. Thus, the German ship would
be able to take large risks, by keeping
well within range of the larger British
guns and permitting her own shells to
be fired at penetrating distances.
The speed of the Derfflinger is not
publicly known. 1t has been concealed
by the German government, but it is
probable that she is several knots faster
than the 2S-knot Lion and at least equal
to the 3O-knot Tiger.
The speed factor, while accounting
for the destruction Of the comparatively
slow Bluecher, must have been controll-
ed, in tne case of the dreadnaught
cruisers, by the willingness of the Derf-
finger to keep within range Of the
enemy guns and thu to cover the re-
treat Of the other German vessels. 1t
is difficult to explain the escape of the
Moltke and the Seydlitz ON any other
ground
The problem of armor protection YER
sus big guns thus has had its first test
in war, The data, however, for drawing
conclusions is not available. The Ger.
man government mas not divulged any
information concerning the condition
of the Derfflinger after the fight Until
this IS known, comparisons will have
to be withheld.
Nevertheless, it would seem, from the
plight of the Lion, that the British
designers may have gone too far in
concentrating on 1875 inchers to the
detriment Of armor protection.
