Roundly scoring what he termed an | cxcess of “labeled Christianity,” Re Noble Powell, rector Paul’s | Memorial Church at the University of Virginia, declared that the law and | real estate offices would continue to | attract the most capable leaders among | college men until the church “puts | | Christ_foremost.” | | "In his relations with young college men, Rev.

Mr. Powell made a plea for mors | “unlabeled ~Cnristianity” that hasn't, anything to do with “odious controver- | jes over fundamentalism” and other | | matters of church dogma, which, he | declared, furnish some of 'the reasons | why it 1s so difficult to reeruit the right | sort of men for the ministry. Un'il the church learns to place Christ foremost | |in the lives of its ministers and mom- | bers, he warned, the business werid and | professions would continue to draw | | more and more young men away from | church careers. | | Rev.

Gor- Sixteenth and I strects the language and theology were anti- quated, obscure and centradictory and no longer represented the attitude of the Episcopal Church. The articles were placed in the prayer book shortly | after the Reformation when, it is ob- | vious, the farmers were especially anx- fous to differentitate their position from that of the Roman Catholic Church, Consequently, some of the articles can | be interpreted as based on the theo- logical s; 'm of John Calvin, with its stern dogmas of original sin, predesti- nation and election, which never has been a part of Anglican theology. The decision to remove them irom the | prayer book passed the New Orleans convention without much debate. In the three years that have inter- vened, howeve the Anglo-Catholie movement has been gathering momen- tum in the church, and there has grown lup a feeling among some members of the evangelical wing that removal of the articles might result in the loss of a safeguard of the Protestantism of the church Anglo-Catholic leaders have expressed themselves as not interested in the discussion. which promises to be the warmest at the present convention, Prohibition Issue Raised. The resolution Introduced by Bishop Ward asked for reaffirmation prohibition resolution adopted at the 1925 convention, and reads as follows “Resolved, That facing the danger of the spirit of lawlessness in American lite. we welcome the renewed efforts of the Government of the United States to enforce strictly and impartially the prohibition lavs and the anti-narcolic Tul lack of money need not deter you from realiz- ing your ambitions and desires, you can make necessary home i.mpmv- ments, give your children the education they should have and otherwise provide the essen- tisls of life for you and vours.

Such an appeal to | the college youth of the country, he ed, should surely draw a real re- ponse. Dr. Bartlett told the conference that fully 80 per cent of the young men who come to theé church seminaries are drawn to the ministry through the in- fluence of their individual rectors. He impressed upon the conference of ministers singling out capable young men in their communities and helping them select their vocation ~in life.
