P.S. GRANT FINDS COLLEGES DESTROY FAITH 85 Per Cent Of Students Do Not Retain Their Beliefs NOT PROPERLY TAUGHT New York, Oct. Percy Stickney' Grant resumed his son. terday at the Church of the sion, Fifth avenue and Tenth street, after a suspension of Sunday services since last June. He preached on the question "Is the Church Honest?" The church was crowded.

Dr. Grant cited figures indicating that the Christianity of university students slipped from them in their progress through the courses and said that their Christian teaching was so easily overthrown because it was founded on the supernatural. No authority, he said, is nowadays vested in the supernatural. said Dr. Grant, "we are not going get anywhere it of the boys going to college 85 per cent of them believe in thomchristian religion and when they college very few of them retain this belief.

If that is the effect of the ordinary college education there must be something it very strange about their religion that cannot stand the strain of the or dinary things taught in a college, pecially it religion has with what you call eternal life. "Ought not Christianity be taught in a way that would not be ed by an ordinary college education, destroyespecially when its essence is, in my opinion, particularly in accordance with the sciences of psychology and sociology. If, therefore, religion takes a profounder view of the two great sciences that have to do with human nature and human relationships, why should a college education overthrow Christian belief? "I think it is. because. it is taught in of the terms that have no understanding real processes of the soul the Christian religion is ordinarily and of social relationships.

And if taught in terms which seem to have no conditions connection of with those profound ordinary life and social growth, don't you think we ought to get rid of that kind of teaching? "The essence, I suppose, of that teaching which is so easily overthrown by a college education, is a belief in the supernatural. The authority is placed in the supernatural."
