A week ago, our attention was drawn to a disquieting tendency in modern thought the tendency, that is, to regard the Church of England with its forms and ceremonies, its literature and liturgy, da so remote from the "needs and outlook of to-day as to be almost unintelligible -a kind of museum in which are

The Ordinary Things,

Dividing Life Into Compartments.

If we followed out the line of thought that was suggested to us last week we must bave been struck by another more ominous feature of modern life-and that is its stem to me impossible that this But that is not all. It does not apparent remoteness not merely principle of acknowledging God from the Church but from Religion could apply to the quite ordinary itself. Life is divided into "eam-instance. It is a necessary part in things to a job in an office, for partments-business, pleasure, in the running of the world. Or that tellectual and social activities and it could apply to tennis or golf or so on. As the pressure of life any other form of amusement.

Often his compan ions at business are quite ignorant of his home life. After working side by side with him for months per- haps they are surprised to find that be has a wife and children. On the other hand business is left behind at the office and his wife in turn may be quite as ignorant of what happens there. And so to process continues and Mr. Brown the hos band and father, Mr. Brown the business man, Mr. Brown the amateur politician, Mr. Brown the collector of orchids live in different and distinct compartments

And into one of those compart ments goes religion-the special fea

ture of Sunday that must not in- trude upon the rest of the week.

It is probably an exaggeration to put the case. quite so emphatically as that--but it is difficult to deny that this is the attitude taken up by many people. Religion is for them identified with Sunday obser vance, or loyalty to some "party creed. It is a department of life. Now each conception of religion is deplorable.

Religion The Unifying Force. Instead of occupying a single compartment of a man's life, re- ligion should be the unifying force that co-ordinates all his activities It should be the inspiration and prime motive in every undertaking. it is in fact the light by which alone he can "see life steadily and ses it whole."
