The new movement is to all intents and purposes a pietistic agita- tion and is directed against the type of theology that prevails in the univer- sities and the pulpits. It is a protest | of the heart against the head and is, | accordingiy, one of the ever recurring reactions which take place in church history. It is largely a movement of the laity, who seem to find their pas- tors with more university learning and critical and exegetical ingenuity than piety. . The prejudice against the church and its pastors has extended so far that in some circles pastors are prohibited from membership or partici- pation in the meetings of the associa- tions. These are largely controlled by younger men and are characterized by a remarkable religious en! m. A silk hat that's worn all night loses its nap.

Notwithstanding the strong competi- tion of the “Tube,” as Londoners call their underground railway, the half- yearly meeting of the London Road Car Company, or omnibus line, devel- oped facts which show that the older form of transit is still popular. The number of pessengers carried during the first half of ®he year showed an increase over the jtumber carried the corresponding period in the preceding Year of 144,531. This is accounted for by the that many Londoners still prefer carried in vehicles in the open air, notwithstanding the exhilara- tion sald to be derived from the ozon- ized air of the “Tube.” Perhaps a still better explanation is the Englishman's tenacity in holding on to established ‘ways and usage.
