Can any mortal mixture of mould Breathe such divine enchanting ravishment? i was a very different young woman that Milton had in mind when he was writing about enchanting ravishment, for it is a safe guess that his earthly divinity had long hair, flowing robes and maidenly modesty.

Enchanting she is, ravishing she is, but divine she is not.

Charles L. of St. Episcopal Church, New Orleans, who is holding services this week in St. Church, representing the Bishops' Crusade, spoke at Grace Church last night on the text, ye at Jerusalem until I ye he endued with power from on The speaker called attention to the almost universal failure of the I church to make a large appeal to i men when she has depended upon i worldly devices and mere human agencies. He said in part: church has depended too much upon campaigns, movements for efficiency I and has placed an unhappy emphasE upon certain esthetic values as these are related to the ornate and the beautiful.

The general result of these nostrums has been a failure of the modern church.
