c. How do the Protestant churches regard the so-called Buchman or Oxford movement?

ASoSAhh"A oA OAAVAu AhVVSAShS'
 A. Protestant churches as such have expressed no official judg- ment on this movement and, from the nature of the case, could not, or would not, do so. Opinions among individual Protestants as to the religious value and usefulness of the Oxford movement differ very widely from that of complete sympathy and endorsement, through that of sympathy with its objectives and recognition of the worth of proportion of its achievements, to distruSt of its methods and influence.
 The Oxford movement appears to lay special, and, as some of its critics think, an exaggerated stress upon certain elements of a Chris tian experience that are common ly recognized as important by all the churches. It appears to mini mize or ignore other elements that are an authentic part of the Christian tradition, and to that extent to be partial and made quate.

Weekly Sunday School Lesson- Maintaining Efficiency
 Text. Daniel 1.s.1e 10 2o. r eor a.2a-27
Text: Daniel 1:8-16, 19, 20

All Daniels wanted was the op- portunity to prove that temperance, restraint, and self-discipline would produce the right results.
 Ten days were sufficient to settle the matter, for the abstemious Daniel and his companions after the 10 days test showed themselves in far better health than whose who had partaken of wine and high foods.
 The lesson is one that is being widely neglected today. but 1t; is well enforced by all the facts of life and history. Here and there some man of phenomenal physique seems to thrive in spite of his evil habits, but such man is the ex- ception, and even he is usually over- come in the end. The facts of present-day life and of history, the records of athletes and of endur- ance, are all on the side of temper ance and Self-control.
 Paul, who was keen observer, enforced the rule of temperance from the ancient games and con- tests. He observed that 1t was only those who were well trained and disciplined who won the prizes in these ancient games. He drew the conclusion that, if these athletes would undergo strict self-discipline for the sake of an earthly crown, why should they not do the same for the sake of an incorruptible crown?
 "Dare to be a Daniep is still good watchword for modern youth.
 We of the older generation sang 1t:
