Eva and her maid 10 stay with his
sister at Bedford Han. BY mistake
Eva goes to Heford House, a sum-
mer school kept by Miss Carew, who
is expecting a new pupil from Ire
land. Eva soon discovers her error
but agrees TO stay with the girls and
impersonates the Irish girl. Miss
Carew. who is slightly deaf. is CON-
pletely deceived; and the play deals
with the amusing incidents which
follow.

With Other Editors
is THE CHURCH DYING?

Much oratory and printers ink
have been expended in recent years
in setting forth the plight of religion,
and predicting the early dissolution
of the churches. These lugubrious
lprophesies have come very largely
from churchmen, themselves, who
have seemed to see an evil portent
in the decreasing number of young
men entering the ministry and the
consequent closing of many local
churches.
Two recent straws indicate quite
strongly that there is little ground
for so much despair. A statement
has just been made, for instance,
that new books on religion rank next
in number to fiction in England, and
next only to fiction and history in
America. Most books on religion are
not the easiest reading in the world,
and when an author on devotional
themes is able to produce writings
that run into several editions there
is reason to believe that there is a
real interest in religion on the part
of the intelligent public.
The latest figures on church men,
bership are also reassuring. Four
million increase in membership in
half a decade does not indicate any
landslide away from the churches.
Nearly fifty million people in the
United States are actual members of
the churches, while nearly forty mil
lion more are classified as adherents.
Practically every denomination of
any size has shown a consistent
growth during recent years.
The sums raised for carrying on
the work of the churches, including
their missionary enterprises. have
been stupendous, far surprising any
thing ever attained before. The ac-
tivities of the churches have extend
ed into many new fields. The av-
erage church of today conducts lines
of work that were unknown in the
past. The church has become as it
never has been before, center of
community life.
This new life has come about in
spite of numerous handicaps, arising
out of the many counter attractions
which are found today. The auto
mobile, the more liberal attitude to-
ward the Sabbath, the tremendous
stress of business and social life
have made the task of the average
parson difficult. Perhaps it is this
new difficulty that has brought the
new life and activity. At any rate,
the stronger churches, in commune
ties where there is no excess of &C.
clesiastical organizations, are enjoy
ing a degree of material and spiritual
prosperity that gives the lie. to the
idea that religion is dying out.
1t is true that many local churches
have been forced out of existence in
recent years. In most cases, howev-

Ar ta

Though the president shows more
backbone in standing against the
soldiers bonus than he was supposed
to possess, he yields readily to the
demands of the ship owners who also
desire a bonus. But they are rich
and powerful and can reach his ear.
The Wall Street Journal daily re-
fleets the desires Of the big corpora
tons and the few dozens of men who
are all-powerful in big business. 1t
says: "There is no way of passing
a soldiers bonus, and if there were
a way the bonus should not be paid.
In any form it constitutes the rawest
bride ever offered to the voters,
while it prostitutes patriotic service
to the level of the meanest panhan-
der. But President Harding's pro-
gram for building up mercahnt ma
rine will appeal as sound to all but
the demagogue. The money used to
subsidize shipping would be in the
nature of a national defense" The
president accurately reflects the
mind of Wall street. 1t is still true,
as when Israel roamed the valley of
the Jordan, that "the OK knoweth his
owner, and the ass his masters crib"
The Newberry case will not down:
Townsend of Michigan, and Freling-
huysen of New Jersey are both OPP
posed for denomination on the ground
that they voted to establish the prin-
ciple that man could bride the cleo
torate and unblushingly admit it
and then sit in the senate, posing as
the equal of men honestly chosen in
the manner provide by the law. If
these senators who voted for New
after the fact
should escape defeat in the primaries
their chance to get by the general
election will be exceedingly slendr,
for all good pople of all parties will
unite to rebuke them for their con-
tempt for the proprieties and their
abasement of the senate of the Unit
ed States. The seating of Newberry
was the most damaging bow that has
been struck at the root of our sys-
tenn of government within a genera
ion; to find worse examples one
must go back to the purchase of the
by Mark Hanna in 1896
and the theft of it from Tilden in
1876.
