DIOCESAN C O U N C IL S.

This is the time of the year when many Dioceses hold their Conventions and the Church papers have had accounts of many. Most of the Bishops in their an ­nual addresses touched upon the E m erg­ency Fund, Church attendance, Christian education, and the Pension System.

Everywhere the Church seems to be Khve in all progressive work. In the jjuthern Dioceses the m atter of a racial Episcopate occupied attention. T here is3 difference of view upon this subject, мИе favoring Negro Suffragen Bishops ! W have charge of N egro w ork in e Dioceses to which they belong. T here

a|t other plans which are advocated by ? ,era- There is a disposition in the j to leave this m atter largely to the Vision of the Southern Bishops when

r mss of National antecedents.

T H E E M E R G E N C Y F U N D .

T he latest advices as to the Em ergency F und tell us th a t up to M ay 22d $145,000.00 had been received in New York.

Tw o interesting g ifts came by the same mail from M aryland and O klaho­ma : One was a set of silver after-d inner coffee spoons which the donor had possessed fo r th irty years. T he other was a set of crochet m ats m ade by a womanwho in form er days was a nurse, butwho is confined to her bed w ith abroken hip, and has no hope of active service fo r at least a year and a half.

I t is related that a Sunday School in M ichigan brought an offering fo r the Em ergency Fund, consisting of two-cent stamps. O u r own Sunday School of the Church of the H oly Innocents, Lahaina, sent up $1.55 to the Bishop with a very touching le tter signed, “ From your lov­ing children,” in which they said tha t they could not earn money, but tha t they could give the price of a show.

. W R O N G ID E A .

T he N ew Y ork Churchm an says that there is a tendency on the p a rt of some of the Clergy, to devote a Sunday offer­ing to this fund w ithout previous prep­aration. Certainly this is not the idea or the plan. T he B oard of M issions asks fo r a definite g ift of one day’s income or wages. T he appeal is addressed to the individual as a unit, and not to the Parish as a unit. W here the g ifts of the people to M issions are small, it is nearly always the fau lt o f the Clergyman who does not obey the Canons and bring be­fore the people the needs of the work and the principles of the work. W e have known m any people in our lives who said they did not believe in Missions, and when we have talked w ith them fo r a little while, they-found th a t they did not know w hat they were talking about.

LOCAL W O R K .

In addition to the m eeting on W hitsun­day evening, the Bishop had the Clergy at his residence during Convocation and talked the m atter over with them. F rom the Bishop’s office, taking the list of the Church Chronicle as revised by the

Clergy, nearly a thousand letters were sent out to the Church people of the Islands. In cases w here the Clergyman p referred it, envelopes were enclosed with the letter. T here were m any names to which the Clergy thought it was use­less to send the letters. W e have in mind three such cases. One woman sent $5.00 to the Bishop’s house asking a re­ceipt therefor, which was, of course, the proper thing to do, a young m an handed one of the collectors $ 10.00, saying he was a Churchm an, even if he did never go, and another young man, whose in­come certainly is not large, sent a check for $20.00.

T he Bishop called the V icar and a num ber of men and women communi­cants and read over the list of names of people connected w ith the C athedral. As the names were read out they w ere taken by different ones present, to be called upon by them, and the result was tha t all w ere taken before the m eeting dispersed. W hat the result will be is not known, of course. W e m ust not expect much out­side o f Honolulu, fo r m any who worship in our congregation are not Church peo­ple and we cannot expect such to be as interested as we are. W ith their usual system atic methods of procedure, the O rientals have taken up the Em ergency Fund as a serious business, and St. P e te r’s Church alone, sent out 150 let­ters, w hich the Rev. M r. K ong had p rin t­ed in Chinese. W e hope our people will do the ir share and do it as soon as pos­sible.

W hen the time came to prepare fo r the meeting of Convocation the difficulty had arisen of the resignation of the secre­tary, the Rev. Canon Potwine, due to his leaving H aw aii. A fu rth e r difficulty lay in the fact tha t the assistant secretary was absent from the T errito ry . F u r ­ther, in regard to the annual meeting of the W om an’s A uxiliary the president and secretary w ere both on the M ainland. The officers therefore, who w ere fam iliar with w hat was to be done in the way of preparation, w ere absent. T he Bishop had to see tha t all the necessary things were done. Notices had to be sent out and all committees had to be urged to have their reports ready, a large corre­

H A W A IIA N CHURCH CHRONICLE. June, 1915

spondence had to be carried on w ith the officers of parishes and missions in re­gard to delegates, provision had to be made fo r fares, entertainm ent, etc. The In ter-Island Steam ship Company kindly m ade a one fare rate fo r delegates. In addition to this the Convocation of 1914 had ordered the prin ting of a new blank fo r parochial reports. All this had to be done in the Bishop’s office and the ab­sent secretaries were sorely missed. H ow ever, the w ork was done, and when Convocation m et all reports w ere ready and all certificates of the election of dele­gates had been sent in and it was seen th a t the business was likely to go smoothly.

O P E N IN G SE RV ICE .

In Order to accommodate the men from the o ther Islands, fo r some years past Convocation has m et on Saturday. The opening service was at 10 a. m. in the Cathedral, a t which all the Clergy were present except the Rev. S. H . Davis, re­tired.

A t 2 p. m. Convocation m et and it was found that every P arish and M ission was represented. T he Canons perm it the election of delegates resident in H ono­lulu when it is found tha t no one can attend from the Churches on o ther Isl­ands. This is an unusual provision, but we are satisfied tha t it is a wise one here, as it brings into Convocation a large num ber of young men who are thus be­ing trained in the parliam entary usages and the m ethods of procedure in the A m erican Church. I t also provides an education in the Constitution and Canons of the general and local Church.

T he Convocation organized by the election of the Rev. J. K nox Bodel sec­retary, and he a t once, w ith the consent of Convocation, appointed Edm ond F. M elanphy as assistant. T h a t the choice of secretaries was wise was shown throughout and the o rder of business proceeded rapidly. T he Bishop appoint­ed the Council o f Advice as fo llow s: The Rev. Canons W m . A ult and John U sborne and the Rev. F . W . M errill, clerical members. M essrs. H . M. von H olt, Robbins B. A nderson and John Guild, lay members.

R EPO R TS.

T he reports read were m any of them interesting and im portant and it is a pity tha t they will be hidden away in the Journal which com paratively few see. W e hope and intend to publish some of them later on.

T here is a need that some of the com­m ittees keep a t w ork during the year and

tha t they do not merely w rite a report a few days before the Convocation meets. I t is expected to remedy this w here it exists during the year on which we have entered.

One th ing we note, and th a t is the Board of M issions has done m ore work than ever before and has been of valu­able assistance to the Bishop and has plans which will keep it busy during the year, especially in providing fo r and helping the General M issionary whom we expect to get soon.

The Education Committee made a re­port which was the result o f correspond­ence w ith every day school and Sunday School in the Islands. I t showed steady and encouraging grow th.

IN C R E A S E .

The report of the Committee on E du­cation shows a large w ork done, and this it may be said is only m ade possible by the self-sacrifice and devotion of the w orkers who in w orking fo r the Church forego the receiving of la rger salaries elsewhere. B ut that, of course, is a part of Church service. The Clergy from highest to lowest do not expect to be paid w hat they would be in o ther lines of em­ployment.

T he Committee on the S tate of the Church had steady gains to show in nearly every station.

T he report o f the treasu rer o f the Board of D irectors is always a model of excellence. I t will be prin ted in full in the Journal and will repay careful study.

T here was added to the possessions of the Church a value of $23,000.00.

T he T reasu rer o f Convocation and the B oard of M issions had a m ost encourag­ing report. All parishes and Missions had paid the ir apportionm ent and assess­ment. T he Sunday Schools had given to M issions $1296.00 and the entire appor­tionm ent of $2083.00 had been paid in full.

O T H E R B U S IN E S S .

T he Convocation adopted a resolution expressing the hope tha t the Churchm en of the Islands would do their share in giving to the Em ergency Fund.

This was a session of two hours and ns well w orth attending by any in ter­ested in the m atter. _ _

Miss Simpson had a class of little chil­dren to whom she gave a lesson which showed well trained children. T he reci­tation of Psalm s by the class was ex­cellent. _

The Rev. F . W . M errill described the French Catechetical m ethod and illus­trated it by class w ork, the class being composed of Chinese girls.

The paper of Miss M cLeod on Sunday School teachers was too good to be heard only by those at the meeting and it is printed in this paper. _

Miss M arsh read a paper on the im­portance of Church history in senior classes, and the Bishop asked questions of a class of girls who w ere brought to the platform.

P E N SIO N S FOR T H E CLERGY.

Heretofore the aged and infirm Clergy d the Church have been dependent on the benevolent efforts of societies. A t the last General Convention a Commis­sion was appointed to devise a plan for pensions for the Clergy. T he Bishop of Massachusetts, the chairm an of the commission, has associated w ith him men wdely known as expert actuaries. The plan which they subm it to the Dioceses rii provide fo r all Clergy of the age of ® years, a pension of not less than wO.OO and not m ore than $1200.00.

This has m et w ith much opposition as it is deemed to be un fa ir to poorly paid Clergy. O thers believe this is the only practicable method. I f it is carried out it will mean tha t each Diocese will have to pay 7 per cent, of the salaries of its Clergy as an insurance fo r the pensions of its aged and infirm Clergy.

Canon A ult had presented the subject on S aturday and on M onday night H . Gooding Field had prepared a digest of w hat he could gather to read on the sub­ject. T he Convocation resolved itself into a committee of the whole to consider the m atter and John Guild was elected chairm an.

T he m atter was ably discussed by the gentlem en named, and by others, among whom w ere L. T. Peck, Robbins B. A n­derson, L. M. V etlesen and Guy H . Buttolph. W hen the com m ittee of the whole reported to Convocation, this body passed a resolution endorsing the plan.

A num ber of resolutions were passed, among which was one offered by Tom Sharp which expressed appreciation of the character o f the late F rederick Fyler, who for m any years had been a delegate to Convocation.

t h e w o m a n ’s a u x i l i a r y d a y .

Tuesday of Convocation W eek has for years been the day fo r the annual meet­ing of the W om an’s A uxiliary and Guilds. T he w ork and the earnings of these organizations in this way can be recorded. I t has been the practice to p rin t in the Journal a sum m ary of the w ork of the A uxiliaries and Guilds and valuable inform ation is thus a m atter of record. The Bishop instituted this order of annual meetings because he knew tha t it prevailed in m any W estern Dioceses and M issionary D istricts. T he W om an’s D ay in H onolulu has fo r years been the occasion fo r instruction and enthusiasm. O f course it has grow n like all things con­nected w ith the Church here and has had to be changed in many ways. A t this session a revision of the constitution was undertaken.

T he day began w ith a celebration of the H oly Communion in the Cathedral a t 10 a. m. at which the Rev. F . N. Cullen was the preacher.

A t the close of the service immediate adjournm ent was made to the Davies M emorial H all w here organization was effected. T he Bishop appointed Mrs.H . M. von H olt, p resident; M rs. L. F. Folsom, vice-president, and, (la te r) Mrs. W . L. M oore, secretary, and M rs. B. L. M arx, treasurer.

T he daily papers gave a good deal of space to the affairs of Convocation and these were widely read. I t has been sug­gested tha t in fu tu re a Reader be ap­pointed to read reports fo r several wo­men could not be heard. I t is a good idea. The reports also should be as brief as possible. I t is tru e that some women complained at the length of the meeting, but to many it was an enjoym ent through­out, and as it closed at 4:30 it was not long draw n out.

T he luncheon at St. A ndrew ’s P riory was in charge of M rs. W . L. Em ory, M rs. J. O. Young, M rs. A rth u r G. Sm ith had general charge of the refreshm ents, and Miss Em ily L add acted as m anager of the luncheon. These ladies deserve, and cer­tainly receive the thanks of all concerned fo r the ir excellent arrangem ents. The W om an’s A uxiliaries of the Cathedral, the H aw aiian congregation, and St. P e te r’s, contributed the eatables, which 160 people enjoyed.

T he am ount of w ork done by the Guilds during the year w a s : Receipts, $4587.51; disbursem ents, $3856.52. T hat of the A uxiliary was in cash, $2406.88; balance on hand, which includes the U nited Offering, $355.97; in boxes, $235.15, giving a total of $2998.00.

T he total sum of the value of W om an’s w ork was therefore, in Guilds and A uxi­liaries, $7585.51. O f course, this only counts w hat passed through the D istrict T reasu rer as fa r as the W om an’s A ux i­liary is concerned, and is therefore in­complete, but it shows to w hat im por­tance the w ork of women has grow n in our Island Church.

' C H U R C H CLU B D IN N E R .

T he dinner given by the Church Club to the Clergy and lay delegates is always a pleasant affair. I t was this year as last held at the U niversity Club. I t has be­come a custom to give this dinner, and we hope it will be continued. T he Bishop inform ally called on several laymen du r­ing the dinner fo r b rief addresses on subjects connected w ith Church w ork and conditions.

A t the close of the dinner a short m usi­cal program was enjoyed.

D IN N E R FO R W IV E S O F CLERGY.

W hile the men are at their annual Con­vocation dinner, it has been the custom fo r M rs. R estarick to entertain the wives of the Clergy at the Bishop’s house. This year nine besides herself w ere present, including M rs. T. H enry W atson, a visitor in H onolulu, who is a daughter of a P ries t o f the Church, and a widow of another.

T H E R E C E P T IO N .

A nother custom of Convocation week is the reception to the Clergy and lay delegates. This was held as in the past tw o years, at the Bishop’s House. The Bishop and M rs. R estarick and the out of town Clergy and their wives w ere in the reception line. E ight girls from St. A ndrew ’s P rio ry sang from time to time, and the orchestra from Iolani played be­tween the songs and did exceedingly well. A large num ber of people of the various races among whom the Church works w ere present. T he refreshm ents w ere in charge of St. Clement’s Guild, assisted by the Epiphany, Kaim uki, and T rin ity , Japanese, and St. E lizabeth’s.

M ost of the Clergy and their wives re turned home on the M auna K ea on Saturday.

O+O+O+O+OG IF T S .

Bishop R estarick at the Convocation dinner, announced tha t he had received a g ift of $5,000.00 fo r the w ork of the Church in the Islands. A num ber of suggestions w ere m ade to him at once, as to the disposal of this money. As the m atter of the g ift was published in the papers, it having been reported in con­nection w ith the Church Club dinner, perhaps it would be well to give a few w ords of explanation.

F irst, it is well to know tha t in much of the work o f the Church here, the sup- nort is derived from several sources. F o r example, take St. M ary’s. Certain salaries are oaid by the B oard of M is­sions, New Y ork. One is paid entirely bv local contributions. T he upkeep of the house and prem ises is largely paid fo r locally. F ire insurance, repairs, ex­penses of various kinds, m ust be a rrang ­ed fo r by the Bishop, so tha t a t St. M arv’s there are years when, in addition to all regular receipts, the Bishop has to provide fo r the things mentioned. One year these am ounted to $312.00.

W hat is said of St. M arv’s mav be said o f every institution. F o r instance. T here is only one teacher at St. A n­drew ’s P rio ry who is wholly paid bv the Board, and tw o others partially paid in

the same way. T he rem ainder are па;л from the income of the school. There have been years when the necessarv painting and insurance have cost manv hundred dollars. This year the roof was painted and an unexpected local gift 0t $500.00 paid fo r the work. Other years the Bishop has obtained the money f0r the w ork which was necessary to be done.

I t is impossible to conduct a Church in­stitution having any degree of venture in faith, w ith strict adherence to a budget I f progress is to be made, decisions have to be m ade quickly and often new work­ers have been engaged when the salaries are entirely unprovided fo r at the time.

This was the case at Kapahulu, both when the first w orker was engaged and when the second was added. And these are only instances which occur all over the Islands. F o r instance. I f a Priest at w ork sees an opening fo r a Catechist to labor am ong those of his own race, and one is obtainable, the Bishop has

If the Church w ork in the Islands has „[•ospered, it has been because the Bishop „35 been able, by the help of friends, to see that necessary buildings w ere erected jfflprovements made, insurance paid, workers engaged, incidental expenses rovided for. Special needs of the Cler

L or workers, due to sickness or acci dent, have always received immediate a t­tention.

The above things, and others not men tio n e d , have cost the Bishop thousands of d o l l a r s annually beyond all regular so u r c e s of supply. One friend in New York has for years sent $2,000.00 a year to assist in providing fo r such expenses. A n o th e r .local donor has placed in the B ish o p ’s hands fo r special purposes of addition to stipends a generous sum an­nually.

It should be said th a t no money ever pven to the Bishop to use at his discre­tion, has ever been used for anything con­nected with the Cathedral itself, its build­ings, support, o r upkeep. W ith the soli­tary exception of when he first came here and found the C athedral leaking in a dozen places, he used $ 100.00 to repair the gutters and down-pipes.

So it seemed to be thought by many that when the Bishop received this $5,000.00 to be used at his discretion, that he would immediately have a good deal of money to use, and people con­nected with parishes and established work, had suggestions fo r a use of a part of it. O f course, this was impossi­ble under the principles which have al­ways governed his use of money, which he has considered to be used wholly for Mission purposes.

To show how speedily money can go, he would state herew ith, how some of this gift has already been used.

1. The land fo r K apahulu was given by a public spirited citizen. L a te r an ad­joining lot on which are erected the school and cottage, was acquired by the Church as follows: T he lot was w orth $1,000.00. The gentlem an re fe rred to above made a g ift of half its value and accepted the Bishop’s engagem ent to pay $500.00 with in terest a t 6%. This $500.00 is paid from the g ift of the $5,000.00 with $25.60 interest added to '*• The deed was then obtained and im­mediately deposited w ith John Guild, treasurer of the Church Corporation, this leaves $250.00 debt at K apahulu for ™e people and their friends to w ork off.

2. A proposition was m ade to the 'shop to acquire a lease of certain prop­

erty at Kahala, on which m ight be built a house to be used as a place of rest and recreation by the Church w orkers in H o­

nolulu. T he m atter was brought up be­fore the B oard of D irectors, the question being w hether the P rocter R est H ouse Eund, or ra ther the in terest accum ulated on tha t fund, could be used fo r the erec­tion of a house if the lease was obtained, the B oard being unanim ously of the opin­ion th a t the accum ulated in terest could be used fo r a building which it would own and could remove a t the expiration of the lease. This being decided, the Bishop gave $500.00 from the $5,000.00 re fe rred to, in order to secure the prop­erty, the balance necessary being given by a friend in the Islands.

I t will be rem em bered tha t some years ago the Church owned a rest house at W aiahole, on the w indw ard side of the island. T his was found to be too fa r aw ay fo r practical use, and it was sold, the children of the original donor being notified of the transaction, and agreeing tha t it was a wise step.

I t had been proposed tha t the interest of the P roc te r R est H ouse F und should be used to give teachers a certain sum of money fo r a vacation, but on subm it­ting the question to a large num ber of teachers and others, it was found that they were unanim ously of the opinion th a t a house a t K ahala, to w hich they could walk from the end of the street car line and be available all the year round, would give them infinitely m ore pleasure than any division of the in terest on $5,000.00. In fact some years ago there was a movement in Convocation to re­quest the B oard of D irectors to use the fund fo r the purchase of a place at K a­hala, and the movement was only stopped by the Bishop stating tha t it was im prac­ticable.

3. T he debt on K aim uki Church is $2,500.00. The Bishop, in a le tte r to the women of K aim uki, inform ed them that if they would raise, by subscription or otherwise, the sum of $500.00, he would give them a like sum tow ards the pay­m ent of the debt.

4. T here are always a num ber of chil­dren, boys and girls, fo r whom no pro­vision of support is made other than that

which the Bishop can m anage to obtain. T here are scholarships provided by friends in the Islands and friends on the M ainland, but there are expenses con­nected w ith clothes and w ashing and inci­dentals which have to be provided. M any of these are small children who are or­phans. N o one, except the treasurers of the schools, and the Bishop, know who these beneficiaries are and the am ount which is needed in the course of a year is not a small one. Some of the g ift has been used for w ork of this kind, and those who are in a position to know, are made aw are in many ways, of the real help which assistance of this kind has been in building up character and enab­ling children, now young men and young women, to be self-supporting, self-re­specting, and m oreover, devoted person­ally to those who have been to them in the relation of fathers and m others since they had no blood relation who could care fo r them.

5. W hile the $5,000.00 re ferred to was given fo r the Bishop to use entirely at his discretion, yet the suggestion was made tha t if he thought it wise, $500.00 m ight be given to the Japanese work. I t m ay be said tha t the Bishop some time before had presented on request to the one who was la ter the donor, the need of the purchase of a lot fo r the Japanese Mission house. Follow ing this expressed wish of the giver, the Bishop has de­posited $500.00 to the Japanese buildi <g fund, which brings the total up to over $1700.00. I t may be said here th a t the appropriations to K apahulu H aw aiian

w ork, and St. P e te r’s Chinese work, w ere both in the line of carrying o u tsu g - gestions of the donor tha t certain lines of w ork be aided.6. I t so happened th a t this year a

large am ount ot insurance became due upon Iolani and M ission property , and painting and repairs had to be atten led to. F o r instance, we have had to paint and white enamel the dispensary at St. M ary’s, w here a thousand cases a m onth are attended to. W e intend to paint at once the dispensary at K apahulu. The Cluett H ouse needs paint on the outside; St. M ary’s needs pam t; the P rio ry floors all need attention. W h at we have men­tioned are only a few calls. W e have said nothing about those outside of H o­nolulu, and they from tim e to time de­m and assistance of various kinds. In the past they have needed a g reat deal and have received w hat they needed.

B ut enough has been said to show that money such as this g ift, does a g reat deal of good and is spread out in many direc­tions. F o r instance. W e are short of Clergy a t this present time. T he posses­sion of money enabled the Bishop to tele­graph to certain approved men that if they could come at once he would pay their expenses. W e all know tha t any w ork w ithout the m inistrations of a P ries t is in grave danger of going to pieces and we have always worked on the belief th a t it was best to spend money to get people here quickly, than to w ait a long time fo r the possible action of the B oard at some fu tu re period. O f course this means when one is reasonably sure tha t the person sent fo r is efficient and suitable.

W e have not m entioned in the above other things for which some of the money has already gone. Some o f it has been sent to a Chinese student fo r H oly O r­ders a t Boone U niversity, who is to re­tu rn to w ork in the Islands. H is neces­sary expenses have been paid fo r years by the Bishop. T here was still a debt of $403.00 on the M ission H ouse at the rear of St. P e te r’s Church. The people raised w hat they could and the Bishop paid the balance of $87.50 so that the whole prop­erty is w ithout any debt. In view of the w ork of St. P e te r’s fo r the Em ergency F und and their large g ift to Missions, this expenditure we believe to have been a ju st one, as well as helpful. *

A s fo r the balance of the money, plans are in m ind for its use in helpful work. W e always believe in encouraging local giving and using money to supplement local efforts. W e always try to use money wisely and usually consult busi­ness men of the laity before anything is done. The fact tha t the w ork heretofore

helped is prospering and rendering help­ful service to m ankind, to men, women and little children, and extending the K ingdom of God, is an evidence tha t we have tried a t least to expend money care­fully and it is no doubt tha t the results which have come have done m uch to m aintain the interest and confidence of those who have been so generous to the work.

A n erro r was made by one speaker at the Convocation in which it was stated that 37 women w orkers here were paid by the U nited O ffering Fund. I t is well to correct that, as the m istake was inad­vertently made from w rong figures. There are 4 women w orkers in H onolulu who are paid by the U nited Offering. N ot one of these is connected w ith the P rio ry or Iolani. T here are 27 women under the Bishop now engaged in Church work in H aw aii.

Again, the list of workers on the cover of the Journal of the D istrict, are all those paid from any source by the Bishop. There are 14 women in the Islands sup­ported partially or wholly by the Board. In the m ajority of cases the support is partial, the rem ainder being made up from local sources. In some instances the partial support is $10.00 a month.

The above does not in the least detract from the fact tha t the Board is most gen­erous to us in H aw aii, and tha t we should do all we can for the Em ergency Fund, but it is as well to know the facts in the case.

The Church schools have closed a fte r a successful year in point of attendance and work accomplished.

St. Andrew’s P riory graduated a class of five, others of the class being obliged, for various reasons, to leave school. The names of the girls who were graduated are Agnes Frendo, Jean P ritchard , Elsie Pung, Louise Akeo and D orcas Chang. Agnes Frendo has been at the P rio ry since she was three years old and during all these years the school has been her home.

The usual exercises for the different

grades w ere held in Queen Em m a H all at the Priory . The piano recital show­ed the care and efficiency of the teachers of music, Miss P ierce and Miss Tew ks­bury.

T he staff of teachers a t the P rio ry re­main w ith the school next year, there be­ing no changes. Miss M cLeod, who gave a year’s service, leaves, but this was an understood arrangem ent. Miss M cLeod has rendered m ost valued service both as an instructor and adviser. H e r large and long experience in charge of the N or­mal train ing w ork a t San Diego made her residence here helpful in every way.

T here will be room at the P rio ry for a lim ited num ber of boarders and those parents who consider sending girls should correspond w ith Miss Abby S. M arsh, St. A ndrew ’s Priory , H onolulu, as soon as possible.

IO L A N I.

T his school has had a successful year w ith a large attendance, in fact there have been m ore pupils than can be prop­erly accommodated. T here has been an excellent staff o f teachers who will re­m ain next year. This staff will include the Rev. Leopold Kroll, principal; M essrs. G. V. Blue, Jan M ow att, Robert Spencer, M iss Em erson (m athem atics), M rs. C. Searle, M r. D. P . Blue (m anual tra in ing ), M rs. Jam es W oolaway, m atron. T here will be one other man teacher.

T he boys have done good work. Miss Em erson, the excellent teacher of m athe­matics, exhibited an arithm etic paper by a Chinese boy. T he exam ination was a percentage in all its bearings. T here was not a single point where any deduction could be made, and consequently on this difficult paper the m arking was 100%.

A t Iolam good work has been done on the lines we have laid out. T he boys at­tend the daily service at the C athedral and come in touch in this way and by means of religious instruction in the schools w ith C hristian influence. M any of the boys are led to 'Baptism and Con­firmation. M any of the best and most helpful young men in our M issions were Baptized or Confirmed while at Iolani. Those who are not led to a definite Chris­tian stand have prejudices against the C hristian religion removed and make earnest inquiries as to C hristian truths.

E d i t h M c L e o d .W hat is the status of the Sunday

School in the w ork of the C hurch? I have attended a num ber of P arish m eet­ings, and I have never heard anything about the Sunday School except as it was incidentally mentioned in the general re­port of the Rector. T he w ork of the W om an’s Guild, the W om an’s A uxiliary, the Choir, the B rotherhood of St. A n­drew is considered of sufficient im por­tance to call fo rth separate reports. W hy not tha t of the Sunday School?

In providing fo r the annual expenses of the Church, how much is set aside for the Sunday School ? So far, the only am ount I have heard mentioned, here in the C athedral Parish, is fifty dollars for a Christm as entertainm ent, all the other expenses evidently being m et by the voluntary contributions of the children. Probably the only outlay is fo r text-books and copies of “T he Y oung Churchm an.”

W hy is there so little expense con­nected w ith the average Sunday School ?

10 H A W A IIA N CHURCH CHRONICLE. June, 1915

Because the consecrated rector is doing w ork fo r wtiicn Пе should not be respon­sible, except in his capacity as the recog­nized head of all the w ork of the Churcn, and because loyal, se lt-sacnhcing men and women are m charge of classes, often because the rector can find no one else who will take them.

L et us look back into the history of re­ligious teaching. T here was a tim e when religious train ing perm eated and subordi­nated w hatever instruction was given in o ther subjects. N othing was taught tha t was not of direct beneht to the Church. T he P ro testan t R eform ation brought a change and secular subjects began ro be studied fo r themselves alone and were given a larger am ount of time. W ith dem ocracy came the complete segrega­tion of secular and religious instruction. T he S tate took it upon itself to provide the form er and thus left the la tte r to the Church and the home. T he home has gradually throw n off its responsibilities and the religious train ing of the child is now le ft wholly to the Sunday School.

In 1899, the late Bishop Potter, said, “ I t m ust be owned th a t the m odern Church has not adequately recognized its responsibilities nor im proved its oppor­tunities as a teacher of the young.” W ith the hope tha t conditions m ight be im­proved, Bishop P o tte r in tha t same year appointed a Sunday School Commission to make a study of the subject. This commission consisted of em inent clergy­men, in and around New Y ork City, and three laymen, tw o of whom w ere prom i­nent educators. A course of ten lectures was given on Saturday afternoons in St. Bartholom ew ’s Church by ten of the most prom inent educators in the country, some of whom were Churchmen, while others belonged to sectarian bodies.

These lectures were published in book form and they provide m ost interesting reading.

A perm anent Sunday School Commis­sion has been the outgrow th of this first one. T hey have provided, through the Y oung Churchm an Company, tex t books which present a graded course of study from the k indergarten through the high school, and a postgraduate course beside. They issue comprehensive lists of “ T eachers’ A ids and H elps” and they m aintain a Sunday School exhibit at the Diocesan H ouse, 416 L afayette street, New Y ork City.

I shall quote largely from these lec­tures, several of which it was my priv i­lege to hear.

L et us first consider w hat is the p u r­pose of the Sunday School? Dean H odges of the Cambridge D ivinity School said : “ I t is to do fo r Chris­tianity and the Church w hat the private

and the public schools are m eant to do for society and the State. I t is to make the boys and girls good Christians, sin­cere disciples of Jesus Christ, knowing H im , believing in H im , loving H im , and obeying H im , showing their discipleship by the gentleness, the thoughtfulness, the honesty, the purity and the unselfishness of their lives. A nd it is to m ake the boys and girls good Churchmen, understand­ing the Church, its history, its principles, its customs, its blessings, devoted to the Church, m aking the m ost of it fo r the good of their individual lives, using it to help them to do right, and m aking the most of it for the good of the com­m unity, using the Church fo r the general establishm ent of the K ingdom of Heaven. This is the purpose of the Sunday Schools. I t is to tra in Christians and Churchmen. I t is to build up character in the Church with the appliances of the Church.”

Dr. M cM urry, not a Churchm an, sa y s : “All religious instruction aims prim arily to develop a perm anent interest in reli­gious facts which shall guarantee fu tu re thinking, feeling and acting along that line. In o ther words we are aiming at religious love based upon knowledge, for clear ideas m ust be the basis of all per­m anent interest.”

I f either or both of these aims were realized, our churches would not be the struggling institutions tha t they are to ­day.

Secondly, w hat shall be the content of our religious instruction? I quote again from Dean H odges and condense nearly half a lecture into a few sen tences: “ M aterial should be of tw o kinds, char­acter m aterial and church m ate ria l; but each helps in the w ork of the other. The Ten Commandments teach how to act, The L ord’s P rayer, how to pray, and the Creed, how to think. As these w ith their explanations fill the m ost of the Cate­chism, we will name tha t as the first char­acter m aterial. W e need to see how the things taught in the Catechism have worked out in the lives of m en ; of those who have disobeyed. W e can find exam ­ples in the people around us and in litera­ture, but now here are they so clearly seen w ith the spiritual meanings so directly taught as in the Bible; hence the Bible is our greatest source of character m aterial. I f the children are to become good Churchm en they m ust know the P rayer Book; whence it comes, what it is, and means, and how it is to be used. A s we need to supplem ent the Catechism with the Bible, so we need1 to supplem ent the P rayer Book with Church H istory. I f we know the Church’s origin, its prog­ress, and its position, it will make us ap­preciate it and be loyal , to it.” |

jane, 19І5._______________ H A W A IIA N CHURCH CHRONICLE. ц

I think we will all agree w ith Dean Hodges’ Jdeas and as he nas included the tjib le 111 hls list of m aterial he has given the final w o rd ; but let us go into detail a little' as to how it shall be used, i he s m a l le s t children can be learning the L o rd ’s Prayer, the Commandments and some of the beautiful Psalm s, but they n eed to be supplem ented by Bible stories. Jliss Simpson has shown you their value. They belong in the child s life w ith the hairy Tale and they can be m ade as a t­tractive and as interesting.

At about the age of ten years, children demand true stories and they are also hero worshippers. Then is tne tim e to make use oi biography. W hen children are asked to nam e heroes why shouldn’t they think of Biblical characters as well as of W ashington and Lincoln. F rom the Old Testam ent we naturally would teach of A braham , Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses, Saul, D avid and Jonathan. F rom the New Testam ent, the life of Christ with His disciples and of St. Paul.

Here let me plead that while children are studying the Bible they be given a vision of another use fo r the things they are learning, character and churchm an- ship having been kept constantly before them. Tell them of the g reat m aster­pieces in art that represent Biblical scenes and characters. B ring into the class in­expensive but good pictures, such as the “Perry” and the “B row n” p rin ts and show them that no one can understand what he sees in any fam ous gallery if he is not fam iliar w ith the Bible. T ake al­most any piece of litertaure tha t the child will study from the seventh grade on through his high school course and show him how many allusions and even proper names there are, tha t will have no m ean­ing for him until he finds their source in the Bible. H elp him to realize tha t our present civilization cannot be understood unless we know w hat has gone on in the ages that have preceded ours and tha t the Bible is the g reat source w ork of tha t in­formation. T ry to im press upon him that the person who does not know the Bible >s not well educated.

Who shall carry on the w ork thus mapped out ? F irst, men and women who are Christians and Churchmen. Second, People who understood something of psychology and pedagogy. T here are “ any Sunday School teachers today who have that knowledge w ithout knowing fhat they possess it. They have gained it ln the hard school of experim ent and ex­perience and they are doing valiant work, hut the time has come when provision for toe training of teachers should be made.

It is an accepted fact that the principles underlying secular and religious instruc­tion are the same, hence the persons who

have had train ing fo r one are best fitted fo r the o th e r; as teachers of secular schools, if devoted Christians and Churchmen, m ake the best Sunday School teachers. They will never be obtained in large num bers until tbey are paid ; not because they are not willing to give the hour on Sunday, but because mey know they m ust devote m uch tim e to preparation and with their heavy duties sucb tim e m ust be taken from tna t now given to personal m atters, m any of which could be paid fo r if there w ere special money fo r the purpose. Even then, m any teachers feel th a t they cannot work with children every day in the week w ithout getting hopelessly into ruts.

W hat would be the next best thing? A n absolute necessity is a superintendent who shall be able to devote much, if not all of his tim e to the work, and his salary m ust be one of the expenses of the parish, o r of a num ber of parishes if there are several in the community. H e will have classes fo r the train ing of teachers and give practical illustrations of the best m ethods of presenting the different kinds of lessons. H e will visit the pupils in their homes, know their p ar­ents, and do fo r the boys and girls through several organizations some of the good things tha t are now being done by “Boy Scouts,” “ G irls’ Campfire” and sim ilar societies. A few Sundays ago our Bishop urged tha t we carry our re­ligion into our every-day life. L et us give the boys and girls a chance to carry their Sunday School into the week-day school, and help them to get rid of the idea that it belongs only to the one hour i given on Sunday and consists largely of moralizing.

You ask w here such a m an can be found? T he dem and fo r anything al­ways regulates the supply. All our large universities now have departm ents for Biblical study, and they will be able to furnish the men as soon as they are real-

at Iolani School our effort be m ade to get a m an who has had train ing along the line of Sunday School work, and who m ight divide his time between the two, his salary to be m et by the School and the P arish ?

Is it not also possible tha t the tim e is not fa r distant when some boy who has grow n up in the Sunday School of the C athedral P arish may go to some E astern college w ith his m ind m ade up tha t Sun­day School m anagem ent shall be one of his subjects of earnest study, and tha t he will re tu rn to be a pow er fo r good in the com m unity?

Do you say tha t this is a fanciful p ro ­gram which can never be carried out? Perhaps so, bu t it gives som ething to w ork tow ard, and all efforts along these lines will m ake fo r improvem ent. I t is not really so fanciful as it seems at first thought, fo r there are m any Sunday Schools that are doing ju s t these th ings; among them are St. M ark’s, D enver, The C athedral at Cleveland, and a num ber in N ew Y ork City, in one of which I know that every teacher receives pay.

L et me tell you w hat a noted educator and Churchm an, presents as the alterna­tive. I t is th is : “Religious knowledge, and with religious knowledge a good deal else that is w orth saving, will go out of the life of the next generation.

In closing, I would beg parents to realize th a t the home still has a necessary p a rt in this instruction. M ake the chil­dren understand tha t the Sunday School lesson should be prepared the same as the lessons fo r the day school. Set some definite tim e in the week fo r tha t study, allow it to be in terfered w ith only by some emergency, and then see to it that some other tim e takes its place. The combined effort of the home and the Sun­day School will surely bring fo rth an abundant harvest.

T H E REV . F . N . C O CK CR OFT A R RIV ES.T h e Rev. F ran k N uttall Cockcroft a r­

rived in H onolulu, accompanied by M rs. C ockcroft and two children, on the Ma- noa, M ay 25th. H e had intended to a r­rive earlier, bu t was prevented. I t was fo rtunate th a t he came to H onolulu in time fo r the annual Convocation, as this gave him opportunity to m eet the Clergy and to see the Church at work.

M r. C rockcroft came from the Diocese of Sacram ento, and previous to th a t he was in M ontana, w here he was know n to the Rev. J. K nox Bodel who was in that Diocese fo r some years.

M r. and M rs. Cockcroft and the chil­dren were guests a t the B ishop’s house during their stay in H onolulu. T he new Clergyman and his w ife w ere able to talk over conditions a t Lahaina w ith the Rev. M r. K roll and M r. Bodel, both of whom had been in charge of H oly Innocents in the past. T here were also people from Lahaina, communicants of the Church, of whom he got inform ation. These includ- | ed M rs. H ose and Miss Caldwell. The last two sailed on the Claudine w ith the Cockcrofts fo r their new home, w here they landed at 2 a. m. on Saturday. They found tw o H aw aiian Churchwom en who had prepared fo r them a supper and had the house in readiness fo r them to retire for the rem ainder of the night.

I t is fo rtunate tha t M r. and M rs. Cockcroft are musical and can play the organ, fo r as in all other small places, it is not always possible to get a capable musician. M r. and M rs. C ockcroft go to Lahaina w ith the right spirit, intending to stay there and do the w ork which is to be done, and we are fortunate in getting them am ong our w orkers in Hawaii. They may be assured of the sym pathy and cooperation of all other w orkers, for the spirit of helpfulness exists here in very large degree.

M r. Cockcroft w rites he is very much pleased w ith his residence and the outlook fo r the work, and we hope and pray tha t he may be blessed in the days tha t lie be­fore him.

T he w orld is small indeed. Among those who were on the Lusitania know n to the w riter w ere three people: b a th e r M alurin, fo r years a P riest in Philadel­phia, who w ent to Rom e some years ago; two people from C alifornia and Miss M argaret Jones, of H onolulu. T here were others on board whom the w riter had seen, but whom he did not personally know.

A nother instance of the smallness of the world comes to us as we read the name of F rederick V illiers on many of the best pictures from the seat of war. H e was a passenger on the T unisian w ith us from Liverpool to M ontreal in 1910 and was introduced to us by W eedon Grosm ith, the playw right, actor, and artist. H e was at tha t tim e down on his luck. T here was no w ar on and the fam ous w ar correspondent was on his w ay to Canada to contract w ith the Canadian Pacific fo r a series of lectures on Canada, in Egland. T he contract was not m ade w ith tha t railroad, and things looked dark, when another railroad made him a proposition.

Since then he has been busy in M o­rocco and the Balkans and now he is do­ing excellently in France.

he was travelling in tha t way inJjrdeTto w rite up his experience. H e came into the first class a t Quebec.” “W ell,” 5а^ the gentleman, “1 am inclined to think tha t he felt he m ust go to Canada and he had not the price of a first class ticket.”

W ord from the Rev. W . E. Potwine states tha t he is getting settled in his new w ork and likes it, but tha t he misses St. E lizabeth’s very much.

Again, how small the world is. A few years ago, a f te r leaving H ilo fo r H ono­lulu, we fell into conversation w ith a gen­tlem an whom we found was from M on­treal. W e stated tha t in 1910 on the way up the river from Quebec to M ontreal on the Tunisian, a storm arose and the ship had to anchor. T he stranger said: “T h at was the tim e Frederick Villiers was on b o a rd ; he told me about it.” Then the stranger told us tha t V illiers had been his guest in M ontreal fo r several weeks. W e asked the questio n : “W hy did he come over in the steerage?” “Did he?” was the question. “ I t is not a secret,” we said, “all the ship knew it, but we thought

Bishop D arlington, of H arrisburg, has long been deeply interested in the Catholic Churches of tbe O rient, many members of which live in his Diocese. On the occasion of the tenth anniversary of his Episcopate, fifty Greeks called on him. A service in Greek was held in the Cha­pel of the See H ouse. A s the Greeks have no P riest in H arrisburg , Bishop D arlington has frequently ministered to them. Bishop D arlington once told the w riter of m any m arried Rom an Catholic P riests in Pennsylvania. They belong to w hat is called U niats, or U nited Eastern Christians. O f these there are over 4,200,000 who live chiefly in Austria. W hen these E astern Christians with their Bishops and P riests united with Rome in the middle of the last century, they w ere allowed to retain certain of their old ways. One of these was that their P riests be perm itted to marry, as is the law in the Greek Church. It must be understood that celibacy is not an arti­cle of fa ith in the Rom an Church, but

O f course, the A m erican Church is governed by its own Constitution and Canons and no English ruling or state­m ent has any effect of law here, yet na t­urally the Am erican Church in any ac­tion would base any decision upon such m atters upon Catholic principles and customs, and upon these the statem ent from which the brief ex tract is made is intended to be based.

T hree questions occupy the thought of the Church in England at this time. One is the revision of the Book of Common P ray er which has long been discussed.

A nother is the moral problem s which the w ar has brought m ore especially in relation to the alleged increase in illegiti­macy in the districts w here soldiers have been concentrated.

T he other m oral problem is th a t of strong drink. T he Bishop of London has called upon the Churchm en in his Diocese to follow the example of the K ing in the m atter of total abstinence. Bishop Gore, of O xford , and others have spoken strong w ords upon the subject.

“O n E xpectation Sunday there were many sermons on the Lusitania tragedy. Preachers of all denom inations were united in commending P resident W ilson. Bishop Law rence’s words were quoted last week. A t T rin ity Church, Dr. M an­ning s a id : “T he P resident of the U nited States in his message to the Im perial G er­m an Governm ent has expressed the deliberate m oral judgm ent of the nation. I t is a statem ent w orthy of a Christian people; it is a solemn appeal to the con­science and the heart of the G erm an nation .”—Church Militant, M assachu­setts.

T he Rev. W ilson R. Stearly, R ector of St. L uke’s Church, M ontclair, New J e r ­sey, was elected Bishop Suffragen of N ew ark, on M ay 18th, a t the Diocesan Convention. H e was elected on the first ballot.

T H E L A T E DR. H ODGES.

O n M ay 1st there entered into rest the Rev. John Sebastian Bach Hodges, P riest and D octor of D ivinity and Rector Em eritus of old St. P au l’s Church, Balti­more. All Am erican Churchm en know the hym n which he composed and which is sung so widely to the words, “ Bread of the W orld, in m ercy broken,” probably the m ost generally used of Eucharistic hymns in America.

The music of the Church in Am erica owes much to Dr. Hodges. H is father, Dr. E dw ard Hodges, a composer of note,

came to Am erica in 1838 to become or­ganist of T rin ity Church, New York. H ater his son Seuastian, graduated trom Columbia in 18a0. H is closest triends were Jam es D e K oven and George Eox Seymour, afterw ards Bishop ot s p r in g -" field. These th ree men all became p ro ­m inent in the Church. They all entered the Theological Sem inary rogether and graduated in 1854. T he three. wished to oegm 'a t w hat is now called "Settlem ent w ork” in New Y ork, but Bishop H oratio P o tte r did not approve of it. i hey were men ahead of their time. Young H odges went to P ittsburgh, and became assistant to D r. Lym an, afterw ards Bishop. H e there m arried M iss Lucy Shaler, a daughter of Judge Shaler. I t was through a grandson of Judge Shaler, a nephew of M rs. Hodges, and later through the sisters of M rs. Hodges, and her brother, General Shaler, that Bishop R estarick learned to know D r. H odges personally.

D r. Hodges was thought in his day to be an advanced Churchm an, but like Bishop Seymour, he had a profound dis­like to all tha t was peculiarly Roman.

D r. H odges w ent to Baltim ore in 1870 and fo r 35 years was R ector of the Parish , w here he carried out his youth­ful desire for a city settlem ent w ith its m any activities.

H e was rem arkable for a combination of talent, a skilled musician, a wise ad­m inistrator, and one with a thorough knowledge of Ecclesiastical art. T here w ere few m ore beautifu l services than tha t o f St. P a u l’s, Baltimore. - I t was reverent and worshipful. H e read the prayers and the lessons beautifully.

T R IN IT Y C H U R C H , N E W Y O R K .

T rin ity Church, New Y ork, has issued its year Dook, of which the R ector, once a lay reader under Bishop Restarick, is the Rev. W . T . M anning, D. D. The book is a large one of buO pages, and tells of a rem arkable work, i t will be in teresting to note some of the work which is carried on among m any races. St. P au l’s Chapel has its daily services, its business women lunch club, its ser­vices for-n igh t w orkers, as well as being a busy center of m inistration to its own people.

St. A gnes’ Chapel alone, has 2,500 com­m unicants, w ith a rem arkable Sunday School.

T rin ity Church, besides the well known place of worship at the head of B road­way and W all streets, has nine Chapels. T he total num ber of Communicants in the P arish Church and Chapels, are 6,944. T here are 3,182 children in the Sunday School, 1,046 in the day schools and 956 in the industrial schools.

Besides the endowm ents the free will offerings of the people of the P arish am ounted to $109,000.00. T he voluntary offerings have increased since the usd throughout the P arish of the D uplex E n ­velope system.

So m uch has been said about the negli­gence on the p a rt of T rin ity Church that the V estry engaged an expert well known to the public, to report on the conditions. O f course, it m ust be rem em bered tha t m any houses are on grounds leased long ago from the C orporation and over these the P arish has no control. T he report o f M iss D inw iddie says, “T here are no saloons, gam bling places, or immoral re­sorts in the houses owned by T rin ity , and there are no rag shops, junk shops, stables or bakeries.” T he report con­tinues : “T he houses in large p art are low, old-fashioned houses w ith a large yard in the rear, commonly used as a flower and vegetable garden.” W hen it is rem em bered th a t these houses are in the dow ntow n district of N ew Y ork, this statem ent is very rem arkable. F u rth e r it may be noticed tha t there are no houses h igher than five stories and only five out of the 359 are of th a t height.

“ The tenants in these above houses num ber between three and four thousand, m ostly A m ericans or Irishm en. T he

length of residence of the families is con­spicuous.”

“ System atic inspection of the property is made by the C orporation in o rder that all defects m ay be discovered and rem e­died. Special credit is due to tenants for their p a rt of the w ork.”

"T he rents average $1.00 a week, or between $4.00 and $5.00 a m onth per room. T he rents fo r private dwellings range from $12.00 per m onth fo r a very small, one-fam ily house, to $100.00 a m onth fo r a tw o-fam ily house w ith an office.”

“ I t may be well to state tha t T rin ity Parish , like all o ther parishes, pays taxes on every bit of property from which it derives revenue and which is not actually used fo r religious and charitable work. T he P arish paid the city in taxes last year the sum of $188,337.00 in addition to am ounts paid by lessees. T he total am ount available from endowm ents fo r w ork of every kind, including its appro­priations fo r outside work, was $425,­952.00. T he g reater p a rt o f the value of untaxed property consists of the an­cient C hurchyards of T rin ity and St. P au l’s.”

T he R ector in his annual statem ent sa y s : “T he popular notion as to the in­exhaustible wealth of T rin ity P arish re­ceives a rude shock from the fact th a t as has been the case fo r a num ber of years past the financial statem ent shows a large deficit.”

In looking over the m ultitudinous w ork of the parish, we find tha t the total in­come last year was $949,447.00, which included the borrow ing of $ 100,000.00. T he Clergy, o f whom there are 29, were paid $84,000.00. P arish visitors and lay assistants, $8,700.00; music, organists and choirs in all the Churches, $48,834.00; the Sextons, engineers and assistants, $30,000.00; day schools, $41,000.00; charities, over $34,000.00; pensions, $18,000.00.

T he productive property of the P arish is taxed at a valuation of $15,403,000.00, and it owes $4,080,000.00.

E ach chapel, of course, has large num ­bers of societies and organizations for the up lift of the people. E very now and then it is reported tha t the Churchyards of T rin ity a re to be sold, but of course this is entirely untrue. T he R ector sa y s : “T rin ity P arish renders a great service each year to the Com m unity by m aintain­ing two downtown Churchyards, as well as the uptow n cemetery. T he two down­tow n churchyards are open breathing spaces and places of sacred and historic interest. T he graves of some of the men most fam ous in A m erican history lie in T rin ity C hurchyard .”

One of the m ost effective points made in the Rev. P . T racy W alsh’s “Episcopal Church Merits,” a prim er of inform ation published by the Church L itera tu re Press of New York, is a note of the evidences of influence exerted by the Church on the forms and observances of the various evangelical communions in this country. Many hymns in common use are from the pens of Church hymn w riters. One denomination uses the chants in the P ra y ­er Book and the system of musical point­ing set forth by the General Convention. Lenten services are coming to be the fashion. Good F riday and E aste r are especially observed. T he Gothic style is adopted for church architecture. T here is no feeling against crosses and stained glass. Musical instrum ents are heard, flowers, hymn boards and sometimes can­dles are seen in these churches. The Apostles’ Creed is recited, the T en Com­mandments read, and the L ord ’s P rayer said or chanted. H undreds of congrega­tions are now using prin ted form s of re­sponsive worship based upon the Book of Common Prayer. I t would be very interesting to com pare the Book of Com­mon Worship now used in the P resby­terian Church (N o rth ) w ith our own Book of Common P rayer. One of the latest innovations is the adoption of vest­ed choirs. M any thousands are now us­ing the very things* on account of which their forefathers separated from the Episcopal Church. In fact, these inno­vations have become so common that their significance is forgotten. I f what were once causes of dissent and division are now being adopted, it would appear lhat present divisions are perpetuated a ore from heredity or sentim ent than conviction. W hatever reasons others may have for their ritual customs, it is su f­ficient to say tha t the Episcopal Church Hakes common worship an im portant fea­ture of her religious services. F o r the attainment of tha t object, set form s areessential.

“T. R.” IN “T H E F R IE N D .”

“T ,rt' c' e ’n “The Friend ,” signed, L R.” which really has for its subject, Social Service and the Church,” has an

Underlying truth in it, but the w riter in

A W A IIA N C H U R C H C H R O N IC L E .j

the length to which he goes forgets cer­tain indisputable facts.

“T . R .” is righ t when he says tha t w hat man needs is a “new heart.” I t is quite true tha t sanitation, good food, proper housing, the com forts and conveniences of life, do not of themselves m ake bet­ter men and women. But these things give men and women and children a fa r better chance to be decent morally, and to be open to spiritual influences, than where no attention to social service is given. The thought in the m ind of “T . R .” evi­dently is tha t a revival does m ore good than any am ount of social service. A s a m atter of fact, he says as much.

I t is true tha t when a m an’s heart is turned to God, and tha t is w hat conver­sion is, that it has a strong tendency not only to make him a new man morally, but to lead him to clean up and improve his surroundings. < B ut this is not necessarily so. I t is true today because the m an who turns to God has these m atters pressed home to him by those with whom he asso­ciates in Church o r society. B ut there w ere days when dirt, neglect of the per­son and of surroundings were thought by some to be evidence of sanctity, inas­m uch as their thoughts were on God and they “cared for none of these th ings.” T here have been days such as those when A siatic cholera first visited England, when m any people thought tha t it was an attem pt to defy God to clean up buildings and streets and to disinfect.

SO CIA L SE R V ICE IN S U F F IC IE N T .

W e adm it that social service is insuf­ficient of itself to make men better m oral­ly and spiritually, but we m ust rem em ber that behind practically all of social ser­vice is the spirit of Christ. The w orkers are as a rule Christian men and women. W hat they do is done in C hrist’s name, and H e did not always see that a m an’s heart was changed before H e gave help to his body.

W e do not need less social service. W e need more. W e do not need less atten­tion to tu rn in g men to G od; we need more. B ut the two should go together, as industrial schools, hospitals, orphan­ages, settlem ents are recognized factors in Mission w ork and are now rightly con­sidered indispensable ones if Chrst is to be carried in fullness to men.

“T. R .” w rites in the artic le : “The whole m achinery of some of the Churches and their large output financially is in the directors of social amelioration, new so­cieties, new legislation, until the whole body politic seems plastered over w ith remedial sores.” T here seems to be a

15

good deal of tru th in this and there is. Com forts, conveniences, sanitation and legislation do not necessarily make m en’s hearts better or improve hum an society.

B ut we would ask “T. R .” to tu rn from the m any disturbing things of the pres­ent, the m any “putrify ing sores that makes the air m alodorous th rough the plasters,’ ’to the “good old tim es,” or the “good old m ethods” which he appears to think were coincident w ith a m uch better condition of hum an affairs.

W hen the revival system was universal am ong A m erican Christians except those of our Communion and those of Rome, w ere conditions better than they are now ? A t that tim e the problems of big cities had not arisen in Am erica, and

does “T. R .” th ink tha t if the old system w ith no attem pt a t social service, was used in New Y ork, for example, th a t it would w ork? T he fact is tha t M ethod­ism in N ew Y ork is a failure. W e are not saying this, but the M ethodists them ­selves, say it. They have tried revival after revival, but it makes no difference and their authorities make appeals for aid to save M ethodism in N ew Y ork from dying. W e have referred to this body of Christians because it has in the past de­pended so largely upon revival methods. M eanwhile in N ew Y ork the Churches which, w ith the preaching of the need of tu rn ing to God, have also vast systems of societies for social betterm ent, settle­ments, clubs, relief work, no t neglecting rescue missions, these bodies have grow n enorm ously and are attacking the prob­lems of the City w ith faith and hope.

O r again, the States such as Indiana, in which the Christian bodies represented depended for accession to their societies upon revivals, w here towns and country districts were “burned” over with con­stant camp m eetings and revivals, have social, m oral and spiritual conditions been models for us to follow?

W e hear of dead country Churches. If the country C hurch 'has been a center for social service, social helpfulness, social culture, social amusements instead of a place devoted to the idea of saving indi­vidual souls by s tirring the ir emotions, then the country church would be in a different condition today, we believe.

A gain, were the moral and spiritual and social conditions of N ew England af­te r the g rea t W hitfield and Jonathan Ed- wood revivals, were these models of ex­cellence? I t was a time when the whole m achinery of social service em bracing so­cieties fo r reform , charity and helpful­ness with which the Church is now iden­tified was absolutely wanting. I t was en­gaged in saving individual souls and had little vision of social duties, no idea of the city of God, o r the Republic of God when Christian men now have in their efforts for social welfare. L et “T. R .” o r anyone else read a good history which tells of social and m oral conditions in N ew Y ork and New E ngland at that time.

W e have not space to go into detail here, but it was a dark period of A m eri­can history which came after the brilliant period. I t is true that we have many things in this city which need to be done. I t is true th a t the coming of a great revi­valist m ight tu rn many to God and under m odern conditions many of these m ight tu rn their attention to social service, but we believe that w ork am ong the young, tu rn ing their hearts to God, but at the

same time teaching them to care for their bodies and their m inds and their souls, this is m uch m ore to be desired than a great s tirrin g up and a relapse.

A clergym an w riting in the “ Living Ghurch” gave some figures relating to an Illinois town w here M r. Sunday held meetings some years ago. In 1903 five leading religious bodies in the place re­ported a membership of 2600, Churchmen and Rom an Catholics not being counted. In 190S, as a result of M r. Sunday’s re­vival, 1600 converts were made. In 1908 a religious census showed tha t the same five Churches had lost all the 1600 and 400 more, the membership being 2200 in­stead of 2600 five years before.

B ut it is not the man, but the under­lying principle about which we write. Palam a, St. E lizabeth’s, St. M ary's, Ka- kaako, St. M ark’s, these and other agen ­cies are seeking to prevent hearts from tu rn ing to evil, and we hope tu rn ing them to God.

W O R K FO R GOD A N D M A N .

They are seeking to prevent disease of body, disease of mind, and disease of soul. Sin is disease, in one way or an­other, of body, mind and soul. Sccia! service w ork is designed to give people a chance. T o get people out of wretched tenements into homes w here the girls can be decent, t l seeks to provide for the people wholesome am usements. I t was a great mistake of the P rotestants who re­lied upon revivals to characterize prac­tically all am usem ents as sinful. W ash­ington Gladden says tha t when he was a boy he was taugh t to consider a ball gam e as having in it the nature of sin. Men, women and children m ust have amusements if they are to be norm al, and to provide them is a part of Christian work. W e should have few dance halls w here girls are led to ruin if we had good places under proper supervision where they could m eet boys and men of some respectability.

B ut why say m ore? W e have said enough. M an does need a new heart bit- many of them need conditions unde which they will have a fighting chance to retain w hat a new heart has gained and to grow in knowledge and grace. Th w ork of the Church is to preach the Gos­pel, but its w ork also is to carry the spirit of the Gospel into active helpful, ness to every child or man it can reach Social service is not to be spoken of as if it were som ething else than a part of every real Christian h ea rt’s activity

T here are always m any ministers of various religious denominations who, out of conviction as to the Catholic and Apostolic character of this Church, seek O rdination in the same.

T he last few m onths there has been, perhaps, an unusual num ber of such, and the following list from the Milwau­kee Church Tim es may be of interest:

R ecent converts to the Church from the ranks of the denominational and sec­tarian protestant m inistries include: The Rev. H arley H . M arrio tt, formerly Bap­tist m inister, ordained deacon by the Bishop of K an sas; the Rev. Wm. V. Ed­w ards, form erly a Reform ed Episcopal m inister, ordained to the diaconate by the Bishop of O h io ; the Rev.

The Rev. E. C. Capozzi, recently a member of the A ugustinian O rder in the Roman Catholic Church and on the dergy staff of the Church of our Lady of Good Counsel, Philadelphia, was ad­mitted to the m inistry of the Episcopal Church on the Feast of the Epiphany by Bishop Rhinelander, in the chapel a t the Bishop’s house. M r. Capozzi has been spending the last few m onths reading at the Divinity School in Philadelphia. He is to be engaged in w ork am ong the I ta ­lians, with headquarters a t H errin , Illi­nois. In this w ork he will be associated with the Rev.

O n December 23rd, in C hrist Church, H artfo rd , the Bishop of Connecticut o r­dained M r. Paolo Vasquez to the dia­conate.

M r. Vasquez is an Italian who has been the lay-reader-in-charge of the I ta ­lian w ork in H artfo rd fo r the past year H e has conducted the services for the Italian congregation which came en masse, into the Church a few years ago, and which has the use of the Chapel of the Open H earth Social Service Mission, and which is called d ’M ission de San Palo. M r. Vasquez was prepared fo r the priesthood of the R om an Catholic Church in the Sem inario Apollinare, Rome, and in the diocesan Sem inary at Syracuse, Sicily, and is this year taking- some special courses in the Berkeley D ivinity School, M iddletown, Connecti­cut. L ast Ju ly M r. Vasquez presented to the Bishop 108 Italian men and wo­men whom he had prepared by a long course of careful instruction fo r recep­tion into the A m erican Church. They had all previously been communicants of the Rom an Catholic Church. H e will continue in charge of this im portant and grow ing work.

A t the m onthly m eeting of the S. P . G. held lately, the treasurers present­ed their annual financial statem ent. The total income for 1914 was £249,156 13s. 9d., as compared w ith £250,585 12s. 8d., thus a total decrease of £1 ,428 18s. l id . T he secretary, the R t. Rev. D r. M ontgo­

mery, in addressing the m embers present, said tha t hum anly speaking, if the w ar had not burst upon us, the society should have had an income approaching £ 2 7 0 ,­000 from all sources. I t was for them now to strain every nerve to retain the position they occupied financially. So fa r as he could tell, there was th roughout the Church in this land a firm determ ination on the part of all to pray and work for the sake of m issionary dioceses abroad, and w ith the hope that no check may be sustained in the cause of the evangeliza­tion of the world.

0 + 0 4 0 Ф 0 + 0A clergym an called upon a member of

his congregation who had been neglect­ing the Church services, and went stra igh t up to the sitting room, and with the tongs removed a live coal from off the fire and placed it on the hearth, then watched it while it tu rned from the red glow of heat to a black mass. The parishioner in question carefully observed the proceedings, and then said : “You need not say a single word, s ir ; I ’ll be there next Sunday.” I f all who read this story are as quick to catch the h id­den m eaning of this clergym an’s action as the m an referred to, we may hope tha t it will produce a sim ilar effect.— Selected.

C haracter does not develop as rapidly as mind. School work is (com m only) directed to mind, indirectly to morals, and if the la tte r are benefited it is from the personal quality and influence of the teacher ra ther than from systematic training.— “ Southern W orkm an,” O cto­ber, 1880.
