MILLER DISCUSSEI3 RELIGIOUS CONDITIONS ABROAD. . CContinued from last weekj He said, That man was -speaking in tongues. You know, we have the gift of tongues here.. A year ago, I was given the power of interpretation. Now I am not going to say an irrever- ent thing about it. I am going to say that in that country it has been the occasion of a good deal of d'sturbance, and some churches have been divided over it. Suffice to say that one of my personal friends, who is a missionary in America among the Swedes, has spent three ' months visiting the cnurches of Sweden. and 'this mission- ary tells me that if the interpretation or 'tongues be correct, and if we can depend upon the interpreters' speak- ing with any degree of accuracy, those who speak in tongues contribute noth- ing whatever to the value of things religious. It is usually some very simple, almost meaningless, testi- mony, and while they say they do not understand it, it makes no particular contribution. I am thoroughly con- vinced. that Paul knew what he was talking about when he said that ton- gues should cease, and we had a thou- sand times better speak one, two or three words that people can under- stand, than ten 'thousand that 'they cannot understand. This pastor said, Now, I dont' know what language this man spoke in ,and he doesn't know. I just know that I can inter- pret. Now I will only say th's, that so far as my own observation is con- cerned, I do not consider that the ton- gues movement has anything what- ever to contribute to the welfare rof the religious life of an intellgent peo- ple. I have no Ciuarrel with the man who wants to believe in tongues, but so far I am not convinced as to its value. They have divine healing in that section of the country. and this man said they had many evidences of miraculous power in healing, and yet there sat in his church a woman so crippled with rheumatism that it took three people to bring her in and three people to take her out, and when I said, How is it that this woman is I I I I I I We have some snappy Overcoats for you this fall at 3 . surprisingly low price.

I am not saying that He does not heal. But I do believe with all my heart that 'we are misinterpreting that-statement I I I in James where it says to use oil and pray. I wonder if you know that these were the medicinal remedies of that day? And I think James wishes -to say, It is a iine thing to use well- known and useful remed'es, but don't stop there-pray. I believe God would have us use every :intelligent means for the correction of physical ailments, and for the cure of disease. I actually believe that people really do get sick. I don't believe it is mortal error or-a mere delusion. I knew a divine healer in my town that for a long while was a Baptist deacon and turned divine healer, and that fellow believed that sin and sickness was a mere delusion, until one day he had cramp colic, and he sent for a doctor --.-1-.

No one can tell what will happen next. Saturday night, a quilt, belonging in the upper region-s of the hall, sud- denly disappeared and as mysterious- ly reapppeared on the scene again. The young men held a party, Satur- day night, which was attended by about twenty-three of the progressive and lively boys of the dormitory. A parade was put on, which for some unknown reason attracted attention from the third floor and caused heads to hang over the railings, bursting with wonder. At the conclusion of the parade the boys met in the lobby and discussed at some length the formation of a club for the boys resid- ing at Hoffman Hall. A number of speeches were made, and a committee appointed to draw up a consttation. 'lhe meetingthen adjourned to meet again Monday evening, but owing to the lights being low the meeting was not called until the following day. But no definite action was taken. The committee will report in a day or 'two with the constitution ready for accep- tance. Jack Byrd still eats as much as ever. His favorite desert is apples.

The Young Woman's Auxiliary had their first regular meeting on Thurs- day, October llth in the Mathetrop- ean Hall. There were 15 members out of a mf-'nbership of 24 present and several vis7tors including Mrs. Elliston, our counsellor. The program committee evide-ntly worked hard at their job for they had an excellent program arranged, the subject being The Girl and Her Bible. and every girl responded readi- ly with her part. But say, we missed YOU at our meeting. Did you forget that the slo- gan of dear S. W. B. C. is Train the trinity. the body, mind, and soul.

Mother Thomas and the girls at Thomas Hall have decided to have ev- ery Saturday evening from 7:30 till 10 o'clock set aside for a social time. All the girls will stay at home and entertain any friends who wish to come to the Hall, or whom they wish to invite. The guests will be entertained by a short program and games. It is reported that Miss Florence Myer is slowly recovering from the wounds she received the other day when she tried to smash the glass out of the door with her fist. Miss Myer's Wounded wrist is extremely inconvenient as she can only- manipu- late one hand and has a hard time getting her share of the eats, Myrtle Scott at dinner table- Now girls, you may be excused if you'll quietly pass away. . It seems that various spirits took advantage of the absence of lights Monday night, for numbers of them were seen executing a snake da.nce1 around the dining room at Thomas Hall. Lights for the occasion were furnished by candles. I I Spirits?! O, it was just the girls getting impatient for their supper. Myrtle Grant spent the week end with her parents in Morrisville, but she was back at the dormitory for breakfast Tuesday morning and con-' sumed her usual quota of seven bis- cuits.

I I We are always glad to see you at IDEAL CJAPE Lunch and Fountain sections of Germany, or the rural sec- tions almost anywhere in Europe, you would be led to believe that conditions were very favorable. They have had marvelous crops in every section I was in, except Hungary. They have had a lean crop there. But as we passed into Berlin we found that everybody was a bit nervous. On the very Sun- day night when we arrived. the sol- diers had been dispatched to Potsdam. The hotel keeper advised us notto re- main, and even before we reached German, wires had been sent out cau- tioning the tourists not to pass that way. We were not illy treated in Germany, though some of the tourists, in large parties, said they 'encountered hostilities. As we left Berlin after a single day, we did not get to see much of the city. We. passed down under the linden trees and observed that world famous street, and I wanted to tell you frankly that the trees fn that world famous street are not to be com- pared with our own Elm Street for beauty. We went into the king's palace, and tramped there for hours. You know, in 1919, the Kaiser had the palace all redecorated. Oh, the gold was just fine, and everything was STIIFIK and span. and he had spent sev- eral millions of dollars out of his own private resources to refun'sh that palace and fix it up. We said to the guard who speaks broken Englsih. 'This looks so new and so fresh! And then he told' us about how the Kaiser had been fixing up. We caught on, and said. 'What was he fixing it un for ?' Dr. Gill, who was our guide, knows European life pretty well, and knows how to joke with them. 'And the fel- low said. 'Well. you know. he was get-- ting ready for the celebration he was going to have when he won the world War! Dr. Gill said: 'Did you cel- ebrate?' He said. 'No, we moved 40 truck loads down to Holland! So the Kaiser was getting all ready for the repetition of history, for, mark you, Kaiser Wilhelm was dreaming of the day when he should repeat history and Stand exactly where the great emperor had stood before him-his grand-- father. I want to say something now I i I I 1 I I I I I I I I I that I believe you will agree with mef in. I have every sympathv in thel world for the German people. I have never seen a more hopeless lot of peo- ple in my life than I found in Ger- many. They ha.ve no idea which way to turn. They haven't any program. Politically, they are divided up into so many different groups, each hostile to the other's ideals, and there is almost no way out. It is a common state- ment all through Europe that every six Germans have seven opinions con- cerning the thing that ,is best to do, but I am convinced that the vast ma- jority haven't any opinion as to what to do. Conditions are terrible from the standpoint of the hopelessness. There are hundreds of thousands of people in the great crities of Germany that go hungry every day of the world, and elf-nhhvigentility is characteristic of all Europe. W e went down to Prague, a city of more than a million inhabitants. It is the home of John Huss, thatlsainted Christian martyr. We visited there with a great deal of delight. We have a fine Ba tist church there and Pro- I3 11 - ' testant Christianity IS coming 1nto her own, not alone among Baptists. but of other faiths-Lutheran, Presbtyerian, Methodists, and all.
