MARRIAGE PROBLEMS.
PAPER READ AT THE ANGLO- CATHOLIC CONGRESS.
"At the Anglo-Catholic Congress at the Albert Hall London, on July 12th, a paper was read by Dr. Mary Schartich on The Spirit of the Christian Home.' She said there were four fundamental questions involved in the Christian, tench- ing in connection with the family: (1) sex, (2) marriago, (3) divorce, (4) family | life." The fact of sexual differences evok. ed loveliness of form and colour. To it was due eong, dancing, and other means of mutual attraction between male- and femalo. It was the substratum "of the graces of courtship, and the inspiration of poetry," music, and all the arts. There was nothing low or vulgar in the fact of sexual distinctions, nor was there any- thing wrong in sexual draires. The sexual instinct was God's gift. Men and women pleaded that sexual gratification wAS essential to their health, and that their instincts were beyond their control, Medical evidence before the Royal Com-i nitasion on Venerval Disease, and before tha Birth-Rate Commission, was that abstinence in the unmarried and self- entrol in the married were not injurious, that incontinence always imported a risk, and that "self-control was "both" possible, and desirable. The abuse of matrimony. like other evils and wrong-doings, were due to selfishness, At the present time the dihentie of conscientious young prople were very great; incomes were small, prices bigh, houses difficult to find, landlords and employers looked coldly on children tenure of work was uncertain,, domestic help scarce, and women's bur- dens excessive
"Divorce is impossible for the practis ing Christian. the added because Christian marriage is a sacrament which 'confers character just as once a priest always a priest, once a father always a father, once a spouse always a spouse. If, therefore, ond partner of a Christian marriage divorces the other partner and takes another the second union is a civil contract, not a Christian marriage, The deserted partner, even if guilty, "is badly treated by the parties to the second con- | tract, because he or she is thereby pre- vented from making roparation, and is by this debarred froin a full repentance."
MODERN MORALS. THE CHURCH'S ETHICAL,
STANDARD.
Addressing a largely attended heating at the Albert Hall, Londos, on July' 10th, ik connection with the Anglo-Catholic Congress, Bishop Gore said he believed there was no duty which was so pressing upon
the Church of Christ at this moment as the duty of re-erecting the ethical standard of Christ It was evident to-day that the current rejection of Christ tianity was not primarily or majuly a rejection of its theology, but rejection of its moral claim. In regard to the sexual
appetites, the Christian standard, within
and without it, was being quite
repudiated over wide-areas of
But it was at least as true that our industrial and social system had been largely built
Up on the tice the
spiritual
Christian principles of equality, and brotherhood, and that the current maxims, of our commerce, T current attitude towards wealth, our cur rent toleration of selfishness as the normal ideal for the individual the family, and the nation, were direct repudiations of the principles of the prophets and of Christ. At the same time, there was a very deep and wide feeling in the heat of men, in side and outside the Church, that the
·Christian "life was rooted in the "truth, and that there was no alternative to it. And he could not but neknowledge that it was very largely from outside this Church that they had in recent years been relearning the mural meaning of Christ. The first duty of the Church was again to study and teach the Way..
"THE GREATEST. FACT
IN LIFE,"
WHAT IS LACKING IN THE CHURCHES..
In connection with the Metropolitan. Hospital Sunday Fund annual collection, the Lord Mayor and Sheriffy attended service on Sunday, June 17th, in state.
Canon Alexander, who preached the sermon, speaking upon the parable of the lost sheep, said that personality was the greatest fact in life. One of the especial dangers in the Church of England was that while the value of personality was emphasised in theory, in prdetice | little was done to encourage its develop ment. It paid more attention to the res pectable ninety and nine than to the one who had strayed. The Church as a whole was wanting in originality and imaging. tion and looked on those qualities with suspicion. It produced laws which pro ferred ecclesiasteia! safety to spiritual advantage. The Church lost a great deni in being robbed of originality ** and romance, and by being associated — especially in the minds of children-with dull convention." If Christianity" was to advance at the prisent time it would not | bc | by reports of committees, nor by means of finance, but by the impulse of epiritual power: The Church could gain "a good deal from the principis followed in the great hospitals, where the in- dividual life of rich and poor aliko was Jooked upon as of the utmost value' and worthy of every effort! in its behalf.
