Works Of Tissot, French Paint

An interesting departure is announc-
cd in the evening services at the
FIRST Christian church. During the
coming months series OF Sunday
evenings will be devoted TO The Illus
trnted Old Testament" The most
complete and accurate series Of Bible
Illustrations ever made was that OF
the French painter, Tissot.
Tissot, in his early years. was a
painter Of, the, Paris boulevards and
cafes OF the demi-mondaine type. But
m middle NE he experienced a reli-
eious awakening that revolutionized
his life. He went to Palestine and
Egypt, and for Is years studied the
people, their dress and habits and
their country. During this time he
produced series Of 700 paintings on
The Old Testament and the life OF
Christ, and was engaged on theia at
the time OF his death in 1902. His
aim was accuracy and vivid realism.
And without doubt he has done more

Vaughan MacCaughey, chairman Of
the religious education committee OF

meeting of Bible school workers at
the Central Unicn parish house Mon
day afternoon on the topic, Practical
Progress in the Bible School Pro-
gram" $3.50.
Professor MacCaughey has just re-
turned from seven months period
Of study on the mainland and gave a
digest Of his information gathered on
the subject of Bible school work and
religious education. He stated that
the term Sunday school is passing out
of vogue and that the Bible school Of
the church is becoming known as
the Church school" ~
The Church school" year is being
divided as tile regular school year,
the work beginning in September and
lasting until June. Then there is a
summer session at which varied work
is carried on for those pupils who are
in the city during the summer months.
Every session should open with ex-
ercises at which the entire school
meets together IL only for few mo-
ments. Then the school breaks up
into its departmental class activities.

This was a compliment to w. j.

secretary, of the Central Union school.
The value OF laps and map making.

much to the scope of the association

Since the program Of the associa-

One nomentons consequence of the
present war may prove to be that
the national churches Of England and
Russia will find II easy to understand
each other and to arrange some kind
OF cooperative union. At least the
fear Of this has apparently penetrated
the Vatican and stirred the Pope to
action. A statement made this past
week by DR.. Palmieri of the Library
of Congress-, and based, SO the press
reports indicate, on private advices
from the Vatican, runs to this effect.
That the Roman See, disturbed by the
rapprochement between the Anglican
Communion and the Orthodox Church
of Russia, is about to launch under its
own egis movement for Christian
unity.
A contributing factor in disclosing
the progress of this parley between
Russia and English-speaking Episco-
racy Is the cordial reception given by
the Russian hierarchy to the proposal
Of World Conference on Faith and
Order, planned by American Episco-
palians. Clearly the prestige of Rome
would suffer an incalculable loss il
there should be formed, apart from
her, union of all the other churches
which claim apostolic orthodoxy and
catholicity. One can imagine a con-
federacy of the Russian, Greek, Angli-
can and American Episcopalian
churches, involving such a mutual
recognition of each others orders and
beliefs, and such q common refusal
to recognize the primacy of the Ro-
man See. as would present to Rome
q far more disheartening situation
than the detection of all the multiply
ing sects OF Professionalism. 'Df
course Rome cannot see with indif-
ference" DR.. ralmieri is quoted as
saying, the growing friendship be-
tween Anglicanisn and Orthodoxy"
One who studies this movement for
Christian unity with an eye for the
social forces working through II must
perceive that this is highly favor
able time for such coalescing of the
churches. Social solidarity and in
diyidual- liberty are the two poles
between which al social life, ecclesi-
astical or net, is lived. In the history
Of the church Professionalism represent
ed the movement away from solidarity
to individualism. Millions words in
"Areopagitica" reveal with what ar
dent joy the privilege of forming sep
arate sects was welcomed by an in
dependent mind
What some lament of we rather
should rejoice az, should rather praise
this pious forwaI dness among men to
reassame the i'll 6eputed care of their
religion into their own hands again.

conformity has eft slavish print
