has convinced me Of the importance Of re-
ligion itself
Speaking from a s>i.,.u.ic point Of view. the
most significant thing which emerges from the
study of comparative religion is the similarity
OF religious experience. whether among the
Christians, Jews, Buddhisus or representatives
of any other religion. This underlying COM
mon, human religious experience is the basis of
the greater religion Of the future which some
Of us are calling 'Humanism.'
81 AM not prophet nor high priest of
new cult" says DR.. Potter II am simply
indicating what from close study of recent
developments think win be the line of progress
in religious thought in the next few decades
ALREADY most Of the Unitarian Church from
Chicago westward have become more or less
humanistic and there is humanist society in
Hollywood a few months old. DR.. John Dietrich
has been preaching humanism in Minneapolis
for several years in the Unitarian Church there
and DR.. Curtis Reese OF Chicago is humanist.
There are many humanists among the
young people in the colleges We have already
heard of them in Japan and India. The HUI
manist Union viii act clearing house for
HumaniSt groups"
Ten main points of difference between HUI
manism and the established religions. according
to Dr. Potter are:
OLD-Ihe cnleI enc OF man Is 10 StorIy GO0.
NEW-The chief end Of man is to improve
himself, both an individual and as a race.
OLD-Relgion has to do with the super
natural.
NEW-Religion has to do with the natural.
The so-called supernatural is only the not-yet-
understood natural
Oldham is inherently evil and a worm Of
the dust.
NEWMAN is inherently good and of inf
mite possibilities
Oldham should submit to the will of God.
NEW-Men should not submit to injustice
or suffering without protest and should en-
deavor to remove its causes.
OLD-The truth is to be found IN one re-
kgion only. our religion.
NEw-There are truths In all religions and
outside Of religions
OLD-God created the world and man.
NEW-The world and man evolved
OLD-The ideas of sin. salvation redemption.
prayer worship are important.
NEW-Those ideas are unimportant IN re-
hgion.
OLD-Salvation comes from outside of man.
NEW-Improvement comes from within No
man or god can save" another man.
OLD-Hell is q place of eternal torment for
the wicked.

First. HumaniSm will appeal to the great
host Of people who attend no church whatever
and whose minds are more open than those of
average churchgoers There will be no attempt
to prose!yte or to appeal to those already at
tached to other religions although such will be
welcome to attend the meetings.
Second. 1t must be remembered that COM

than when any OF the existing religions were
founded 1t doesn't take so long for the ideals
and principles Of q new faith to be heralded

Third. There Is the same dissatisfaction

Proof That Forests
Have Hv0ienic Value

We hear much of the Importance of
the conservation of forests from an
economic standpoint. but little is said
of the hygienic value of forests.
Forests contribute to the general
health by breaking the force of stead
lily blowing winds. They mitigate the
heat Of summer by the vast amount
of evaporation from their leaves that
occurs by day. They also promote
rainfalls Thus they check the ten
dency of the earth to desiccate, which
Is almost as injurious to health as 1t
Is to vegetation.
Cholera often passes wooded dis
trict and revels in treeless one. A
certain road in India leads for 60
miles through dense forest. Far
ther on it runs for so mixes through a
barren plain. Hundreds Of persons
travel the entire road daily. Now. In

Various Ideas as to
Spots on Moons Face

There exist In various parts Of the
world curious ideas regarding the
dark spots In the moons disk. In the
eastern part OF Asia the spots are
believed 10 be rabbit or a hare
The Chinese, In particular, regard
them as hare sitting up and pound
ing rice in mortar. Siamese take
the same view. Others see in the
moon man and woman working in
q field.
Curiously. the North American In
dians have almost the same super
stition as the Chinese. On old monu-
ments in Central America the moon
appears as a jug or vessel, out of
which an animal like a rabbit Is jump
ing South American Indians, on the
other hand. believe that a girl, who
had fallen In love with the moon
s1fang toward 1t, was caught and
kept by 1t, and that 1t Is her figure
which is seen on the moons face.
Samoa islanders regard the spots as
representing woman carrying a
child. Other Southern peoples have
similar beliefs. the woman and child
sometimes being altered into an old
woman bearing burden on her
back.
