BRITAIN IS FINDING FAITH AGAIN
(Continued from Page 6.)
few weeks ago, on my way back from the Far East, I began to won der if another of these
great manifestations of popular faith may not be on the way. I found the whole Dominion, from Vancou ver to Quebec, discussing the suc coas of the mission which the Ox- ford Group Movenient, headed by Dr. Frank Buchman, has been conducting there for the past six months.
The Canadian, newspapers were publishing reports of their meet- inga several columns long. A book on the alms and methods of the movement that I bought was mark- ed na boing in the 112th thousand of its sales.
A large number of the Protest- ant clergy of the Dominion have given this mission their support. Its methods of operation are very like those of the religious organisa. tions that exist among under- graduates at English Universitica. They are informal, social and easy- going. Most of the missioners, Indeed, aro men and women from Oxford and Cambridge, though joined with thom are
"British Vico-Admiral, a missionary Bishop and a number of people from other parts of the Empire.
The Movement holds conventions which it calls "house-partica." These last two or three days, and have been hold at well-known Canadian country-clubs and some of the largest hotels in the Dominion. On these occasions public meetings for prayer, addresses and hymn- singing alternate with entertain- ments and ten-parties. At Calgary 1,000 people attended n "house- party," and another of the same aize was to be held at the Chateau Frontenac Hotel in Quebec the week after I passed through,' for which special trains
were being run from the other side of Canada, four days' travelling away.

of
"The mutua!
discussion spiritual experiences," I was told, is the object of these gatherings. The basis of the Movement's creed is that peace in the world
can spring only from peace in men's hearts; that the solution of the international problems of to-day depends upon a change in the spíritual set-up of mankind. Honesty and frankness are the forces on which it relies to work this change.
It would be easy to smile at the idea of gatherings where men and women are invited to "share" their religious difliculties and to make mutual confession of their faults-- but I must admit that I was im- pressed by the hold which the Ox- ford Group Movement has evidently taken on the minds of many Cana- dians whose education and know- ledge of the world would safeguard them against merely emotional methods of appeal. I heard from a thoroughly reliable source of the case of a rich Montrealer who, as n result of the mission's work, hnd handed over to the Treasury $12,- 000, out of which his wife, with his approval, had defrauded the Cus- toms at various times.by-smuggling. in goods from Europe.
"The Movement is still gaining ground," writes a Canadian friend of mine, who stands quite outside it, in a letter I received the other day. "It is enlisting a great many well-to-do and some really wealthy people. It would not sur- prise me at all if in a reasonably brief time the Oxford Movement attains considerable importance in Canada. Its appeal lies In the fact that it la inter-denominational and that its organisation is not too closely knit. Either their propagan- da is put out by first-class publicity people or their converts
are ex-
tremely active talkers. I do not know which is currcet, I do know that our homes here are full of quite impressive gossip covering every- thing from the restoration of wast ers to usefulness in society, to the payment of huge sums of conscience .money to the treasuries of the Federal and, Provincial Goyern- ments and to privato concerns. In fact, it has about reached the point where ordinary fólks are beginning to shake their heads and say that there must be something to it."
The cheerful optimism of this new religious offorts is bound to have its appeal for a discouraged and Impoverished world. Wycliffe's werk developed against the grim background of the Black Donth. It was, in the "hungry forties" that the last Oxford Movement reached its full magnitudo. Ia it possible that, the harassed nerves of our own generation will And re- lief in another religious revival?
