The Realism of Winter.
lNew York Herald Trihune.l )


 Winter is a mighty destroyer of mysteries The birds nests that hidden by dense green foliage, the lone pine that lost in forest of oaks, the sudden cliff that disappears when the leaves come out the muskrat's house that is invisible in mid summer-all these become part of the obvious land scape. Even the ponds lose their isolation. New short cuts opened over the ice; little capes and promontories which had somehow kept their inner nature to themselves lie stripped and bare, visible from every angle. Man never feels quite at home except when his feet soidly planted a solid surface; the vistas from bobbing boat never seem quite certain, that the steady contours of a pond shore from md-ice have new strange soldity.
 The inaccessible bogs, too lose their faint nance. When the water stands in black pools about little hummock islands of tall swamp ferns and inpenetrable water shrubs it certain that if one could only force ones way through the sink ing mud and the tangled branches and the hordes of mosquitoes would make strange discoveries find birds and exotic plants not visible to the shore-bound eye. Now that the mud is solid and the frozen pools part of the general level plain the mystery is gone the bog is more interesting than the open meadow beyond. Whatever is in- accessible and unattainable wrap in mists of romance; when the ground is frozen and new high ways open we see with new, realistic eyes

The Decline of Church.
Manchester Guardian.l

Amongst the changes which are remodeling so- cety in our age must be included the decline in church attendance. It is a noteworthy symptom but it's significance is seldom acknowledged so frankly and forcibly as it was the other day by Dr. Douglas Brown, the President of the Baptist Union The statistics of organized religion for 1929 he said, staggered and humbed" the church. es They represented a spiritual slump which if it continued unchecked for another ten years. would leave organized religion dead as the dodo The implications of this tendency to turn away from the approved custom of church-gong has been Tor some time anxiousy discussed in denomina- tlonal and inter -denominational conferences The churches, of course, have not been content inac lively to regard it as of the inevitable changes m Socal custom which mark the entrance of a new period Efforts have been made to turn tba tide, but they have been intellectual It would seem that the age demands changes in dogma and practice more fundamental than any the churches are prepared to make

.LUTHERANS FACE
DIVORCE PROBLEM
Convention at Milwaukee to
Decide Attitude Toward
Separations.
~ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
MILWAUKEE, October 6.-The ques-
ton of liberalizing its stand on divorce,
long one of the controversial problems
of the church, will be up for possible
decision at the Seventh Biennial In
Sensational Convention of the United
Lutheran Church Of America here To-
morrow.
Attitude Divided.
The attitude Of the United Lutherans,
representing approximately half OF the
followers of Martin Luther in North
America, has been divided for several
years Originally only one ground Tor
divorce was recognized dultery-out
the increasing number of divorces
granted on charges of desertion has
brought forth the contention 1t also Is
Just cause.
Six years ago a committee was named
10 find a solution. Its report was the
first made at Richmond two years later.
1t recommended adoption Of rule rec
ognizing deSertion, but the convention
overwhelmingly disapproved of the
findings.
Action Was Deferred.
Two years later at Erie, Pa. the
committee again submitted report
similar to the first. This was not
wholly rejected-in fact, portions were
adopted.
Final action on the adoption or re-
lection Of the remainder of the report
was postponed at that time until this
year. In substance, the committee
recommended that the church take the
position that the marriage bond is eff
fectively dissolved on two grounds only
the sins of adultery and malicious
desertion." The question of remarriage
for divorced persons and their admis-
sion into the church should be investi-
gated by the minister and his subse-
quent actions should be the result of
his own convictions, the report said.
Merger Is Considered.
A proposed merger of four prom
inent Eastern theological seminaries
controlled by synods affiliated with the
church may also be determined.
The proposed merger involves the
Hartwick Seminary. of Cooperstown, N.
Y; the Mount Airy Seminary, Phila-
delphia; Gettysburg Seminary, located
on the famous old battlefield, and the
seminary attached to Susquehanna
University, at Selings Grove, Pa.
Coupled with this is the question of
whether the United Synod Of New York
had the right to authorize the transfer
of the Hartwick Seminary from its
present site, where 1t had been located
for 1913 years, to Brooklyn.
