There is something in me that holds me fascinated at a street corner listening to a Salvation Amy exhorter, despite my inner revolt against his inadequate con ception of life and religion. I am likewise drawn irresistibly into the liberal camp in religion. But religious liberalism seems to me not yet to have found itself. In this liberal preacher and that, in this liberal" scholar and that, I find isolated fragnien ts what seems to me a sound and satisfying sense of the religion of Jesus as contrasted with theolo gical Christianity, which is rapidly losing the loyalty of the modern mind.

Not one man as yet has correctly answered all five of the problems. It seems somehow that in the modem system, of education the avenge boy's brain stops somewhere be tween the elementary school and the secondary school—that is, when he is about 14-and thereafter he takes no interest in knowing any thing. Ifind that unless a boy has become interested in some subject: -It does not make much difference' what it is before he is 14, he never thereafter masters anything, but is content to be led or driven. Industry is the result of the efforts of man, and I think a large part of the work of bettering industry will have to begin with the education of the boy."
