According to the latest report from
Berlin the new secretary of the Ad-
miralty. Beincke already has been re-
lieved of his post and been made, chief

The Wesner Zeitung announces that
II Is a mistake to conclude. as many
people have done. that Admiral Beincke,

Capelle's post, is to remain in Office
B permanently.
The Kolnische Zeitung learns from
parliamentary circles that Won Capelle's
successor will be Vice dmiral Won
Mann. who is at present chief of tho sub
marine department in the Admiralty.
This paper points out that Won Mann
was a director of the Germania docks
for a short time before the war. and
later came before the public as leader
OF the Deutschland on her first trip.
The same paper states hat Won Mann
was to receive members OF the Reich

er than open discussion. Doctrines
and forms and institutions are dear
to it; and if it could, it would en-
dow everything religious that now
exists for ecclesiasticism is the high
priest of things as they are"
Smooth, sophisticated, subtle, &C.
clesiasticism is worldly wisdom in
vestments; it is the world within the
church. There is no very great dif-
ference between the ecclesiasticism
OF 1918, which penalized the pro-
pressive and reforming young
preacher and the ecclesiasticism OF
80 A. ID. which condemned a certain
radical young Nazarene. Both re-
present prudence and self-interest

Wars Swift Jolt.
If have at all understood the new
tides of the times that are sweeping
around the world. and the fresh,
fearless facing OF facts which char
acterizes the soldier, then it is per-
fectly clear to me that ecclesiasticism
and all that it connotes is due to re-
ceive some startling jolts in the COM
ing months and years. For ecclesi-
asticism represents a ruling class. q
privilegen group, cast OF profess
ionalism verging upon autocracy. 1t
smacks of aristocracy, and not OF
democracy.
Soldiers who have sloughed Off
without an effort the conventional
accessories OF religion, but who have
entered into a new and deep appre-
citation of what is vital in faith. may
make short shriit OF that profession
al ruling class in the churches which
is an obstruction to progress and to
the simpler expressions of Christian
ity which the soldiers love. If the
men who come back from the
trenches take any part in chnrch af
fairs it will be to promote simplicity
and sincerity and essential unity.
They care nothing about historic
bodies. Most of them would be con-
tent to see one comprehensive,
elastic organization. like the y. NJ.
c. A., represent all religion-though
this is neither likely nor desirable.
A return to first principles, with an
uncomplicated organization. an ele-
mental creed, and great and help
full fraternity, would satisfy the sol
diers. They believe in church OF
human brotherhood. with Christ at
its head. and its leading members )

all.

In Eden's garden long ago
No telephone they had;
No trolley car ran to and fro.
This life" said Eve, is sad.
For more experience we must strive
Although we seem content.
We do not know that we're alive
In this environment
Now Adam runs to catch train,
And Eve has fired the cook.
For ice or coal they plead in vain
Things have a doleful look.
Yet not an Adam nor an Eve
In all this world of stress
Would settle down, if they had leave
In Edens peacefulness.
