MARTENS TO
OFFER BIG ARTISTS

Ossip Gabrilowitsch, conductor of
the Detroit Symphony orchestra.
which is to give the opening concert
Of the Martens Concerts, Inc, must
be counted among the most for
tunate of men.
Having won all the glory there
was to be won as a pianist, he
turned to the orchestra and matched
his reputation as pianist with that
as a conductor, and now is able to
pursue both of these branches Of
art, for his position as conductor of
the Detroit Symphony orchestra has
not compelled him to give up his
career as pianist.
The program which Gabrilowitsch
has selected for the Indianapolis
program is an unusual and interest
ing one, in that two of the num-
bers programmed have not been
heard in indianapolis, the Schubert
Seventh Symphony and the Nor
folk Rhapsody" by Williams, a new
composition.
The complete program follows:

coloratura, has begun a series of
American concert appearances I'M
der the management of Charles L.
Wagner, impresario, and will be
heard here Nov. %, the opening
Sunday afternoon concert of the
Martens concerts.
The diva made her American de-
but with the San Francisco opera
company on Sept. Is in La Traviata'
and was instantly acclaimed the
the most brilliant coloratura soprano
of the twentieth century.
Nine Clairbert, who comes to this
country with brilliant European
record as the star of the Brussels
Opera, will be accompanied by
Francis de Bourguignon, noted Bel
gian pianist composer, and Eugene
Lion, celebrated European f1utist.
Mr.. de Bourguignon and Mrs. Lion
are concert artists in their own
own rank. They were obtained as
accompanies to Nine. Clairbert be-
cuase Mr.. Wagner wished to sur
round his new star with the finest
talent available,
Following the American debut of
Nine. Clairbert in San Francisco she
received ten curtain calls, and the
Stage-door was stormed by nearly
a thousand excited opera oerS.
Though she is but % years old sue
cess is net novelty to Nine. Clair
bert. For a number Of years she
has been a favorite in Europe, but
she modestly and gracefully ac-
cepted the fine tribute paid her by
the audience of 5000 people who
heard her sing in San Francisco.
This is Nine. Clairbert's first visit
to America and she is thrilled by
it. When she stepped from the liner
which bore her here she declared
that, having seen New Yorks ia

would like her so well she would
be able to see the entire country,

Religious Questions
DISCUSSED BY
DR.. S. Parkes Cadman.

not attainable on earth In one sense
faith resembles a scientific hypothesis.
We first believe, then verify our belief,
and from the basis thus secured we pro-
coed to further trust and Illumination
Faith, however, is not a conjecture
or a guess, but postulate of the reality
in us which responds to the ultimate
reality. 1t Is an experienced relation
ship between our personality and that
reality. 1t Is a relationship between
the knowing subject and the object of
its knowledge. Such faith grows from
more to more, according to the better
understanding of that upon which it
Is fixed. One of the best books on this
subject is Faith in God and Its Chris
tan Contamination" by D. M. Baltic
(ScribnerS).
@. ID What do you really believe
about the Bible?
CD Do the Roman Catholic authori-
ties forbid its circulation?
cd Would you advise the reading of
the Bible, with or without note and
comment, in our public schoolsP
A. Cd My assured conviction about
the whole Bible is that it is the great
est and most unique record of mans
Divinely inspired religious experience.
and that its history of Christ, as the
founder OF Christianity, has made the
New Testament the exhaustless deposit
OF mans moral and spiritual instruc-
ton and regeneration. I
CD No. On the contrary, our Roman
Catholic brethren have an English
version of their own. The Old Testa-
ment translation was made in 1909
| 1910, and the New Testament transla-
ton was published In 1882. Both trans
lations were made from the Latin
Vulgate. The Holy See sanctions the
reading of this Bible in English-speak-
| ing nations and circulates It among its
followers. But the Roman Catholic au-
thorities also maintain a body of ira
/ dition by which the teachings of both
Testaments are to be interpreted and
understood.
90 Yes, provided the parents of the
children attending the public schools
favor the reading Of the Bible In them
In fact, I 60 further, and affirm that
every child is entitled to a careful
training in the religion of its parents
so long as that religion does not menace
the social welfare. In my judgment
1t is injurious to public morals for the
youth OF America to be deprived OF
the peerless spiritualities and ethics ci
Holy Scripture because Of our sectariah
i QuayTels.

@. Do not the New Testament's tes-
timonies to our Lord prove that His
risen body was identical with His pre-
vious body, even to the wound marks,
and that his mind was the same mind?
Where, then, is the Biblical authority
for denying the resurrection OF the
physical body?
A. There are two New Testament
conceptions of the resurrection body OF
Christ. The first represents 1t as a
spiritual body superior to physical con-
ditions, and one which was not to be
touched by human hands. The second
represents 1t as composed OF flesh and
blood. This latter view seems to have
been the one upheld by st. Luke, who
insisted that after the resurrection
Christ had more than q merely spiritual
body; that He was not ghost, but the
yeritable and complete being who had
risen from the grave.
The original teaching about the
resurrection is founded upon His APP
pearances after the crucif1xion and not
upon the story of the empty tomb. But
there are always materialists who can
not think of personal survival apart
| from a body. st. Luke's point of view
seems to have been for centuries the
belief Of the Christian Church. There
| are many today, on the other hand.
who agree with st. Paul's point OF view,
| That flesh and blood cannot inherit the
Ikingdom Of God. and that this corrup-
ton must put on interruption and this
mortal must put on Immortality" For
a helpful discussion of the issue, read,
II you can get it, the late Bishop West
colts volume on 1.-THE Resurrection
| Body OF Our Lord" and also DR.. Robert
NoFwood's book, entitled His Glorious
Body"
| @. would like to ask what per cent
of the ministers preaching today be-
| lieve what they preach. Is 1t possible
| to have absolute faith In q thing you
do not thoroughly understand?
A. The large majority OF preachers
undoubtedly believe what they declare
They maintain the freedom of the pull
Dit as one of the safeguards OF religion
and also as an indispensable condition
of religious and social progress. But j
is not always expedient for q preacher
to say all he knows. This Is not du'
to harmful reserve, but to the intel
lectual and spiritual apprehension o
his people. He is q teacher and If h
Is to be helpful he cannot get too IA
ahead of his hearers.
The term absolute" is misnome
when applied to faith, freedom or any
thing else, since 1t implies o. perfection
