CURRENT COMMENT
professional Evangelism"

An interesting item of contemporary
history is the decision of the Federated
council of churches of Pittsburg not to
encourage imported" evangelists. The
decision, announced by the secretary OF
the council, was preceded by an ex'
preston of opinion regarding the ques-
ton at conferences representing about
county. Three Presbyterian ministers
500 Protestant churches in Allegheny
of Pittsburg dissent but the sentiment
of the churches as whole is said to
be overwhelming
Campaings of the Billy" Sunday and
Gypsy" Smith type are Judged too
high priced too much commercialized,
obsolete, false in stimulation and in
enective. The counts in theh indie
ment are familiar but such wide
agreement upon them, at least such a
formal expression of agreement, is un-
usual. The first two counts deal with
comparatively superficial phases of the
question. 1t is a question of value
rather than Of price and II the eyange-
lists organization delivers the goods
las Mr.. Sunday might express 1.-THE
exhibit is strong argument for 'he
efficiency" methods employed.
The other three counts touch theh
heart Of the matter. While Sunday
and Smith have made unprecedented
use of organizations, of advertising and
of the other resources of commercial
age, they differ from their most noted
predecessors even more in their plat
form methods, but like other famous
evangelists who have preached to great
audiences in America they have
stimulated religious conviction and
moral resolve through appeal to their
emotions. They are in this respect of
the company of the Wesleys, TO White
field of Moody and of their many, and
lesser, successors. Are the people of
to-day less susceptible to the lasting
influence of such preachingi Evidence
tending to show that they are is af-
forded by the reaction to the method
which the Allegheny county church
men have manifested in taking the
stand which they have announced.
But rejection of old-fashioned
method of recruiting for the churches
raises the question OF what to do to at
tract new members and larger con-
gregations. The Pittsburg council sug-
gessts a program of personal evange-
ism" and the Inauguration of an
optional course OF Bible study in the
public schools. It's action should re-
suit in stimulating other suggestions.
The problem Is not a simple one

council by til legislature, the plan fol-
lowed here until changed by one of the
numerous constitutional amendments.
In Maine, the choice of councillors by
the legislature has heretofore been
seldom criticized, but the council IT.
self has not escaped criticism on the
ground that 1t ia superfiuous piece Of
governmental machinery. PROPOSE
lions to abolish it, however, have not
been seriously considered.
Probably the sudden development Of
interest on the part Of the grange in
the council and the manner of its cleo
ton is to be explained by recalling the
refusal of the council last summer to
confirm the nomination Of the gentle
man selected by the governor to serve
as chairman of the public utilities
commission. The nomination was
made again and again, and confirma-
tion was again and again ref ased, until
at the time of the threats OF railroad
strike, the governor, on the ground
that the public interest required the
filing Of vacancy, presented to the
council the name OF the present chair
man Of the commission, this nomina-
ton being promptly confirmed Re-
fusal to approve the selection Of the
original nominee was alleged to be due
to the controversy which has ragged in
Maine over Governor Bakers views
with reference to the development Of
water powers by the state. During the
deadlock the Maine newspapers de-
voted much space to discussions of the
proper functions of the council The
controversy arose at time when there

INTELLECTUAL PEAsANTRY.
Interesting Colonization Experiment
Seen at Dilb, Palestine.

On the coast road to Jersualem there
are a couple Of small Jewish colonies
living at close quarters with the Arab
villages. One Of the newest, Dilb, is q
real pioneer settlement. Its workers
for the most part from Russia and the
Ukraine, are Of all sorts and classes
students, doctors, peasants.
They have built wooden huts, in
which they live. The women, both
here and working on the roads, seem
In better health than the men, broad
shouldered, stout and strong. Some
of the boys look pale and thin, some
Of the men wear glasses and pinched
features still bear obvious marks of
scholarship. The huts are divided into
sleeping cells, small, clean, furnished
with bare necessities. A common din
ing room and kitchen worked by the
women in regular shifts, completes the
settlement.
These new laborous de terre and
stone breakers form an interesting ex-
pertinent. They come in from the
fields at MONDAY, carrying picks, SHOW
els and spades, brown with the sun,
shining with sweat, laughing and sing
ing, and ii yon care to glance on the
shelves or tables near their beds you
will discover books Of philosophy, meta
physics, classics. An intellectual peas
antryl Ideal, ii in the nature OF
things II can be expected to last.
The directors of Dilb are experiment
ing in q process Of terracing the stony
hills of Judea. Vegetables are being
planted; figs. peaches, strawberries are
to be grown; the vine cultivated, and
the hillside should be transformed into
the pleasant fruitfulness Of Italy.
If the experiment succeeds there are
miles Of waste hills ready to undergo
the same process, provided the land can
be procured and there is money to pro-
cure It. IT all sounds possible when
it is remembered that the Judean hills
were originally thickly forested and
are arid now only because the Turks
cut down timber without troubling to
replant. The same story may be read
farther north. Mount Carmel, once
s.the Vineyard OF God,' has become
desert and small body of Jewish i'm
migrants is now busy in afforestation
and the replanting of vines. Mary
