EL PASO HERALD 12 Monday, January 20, 1913 CHURCH TTENDK INCREASING LARGELY IN G-ain of From 10 to 25 Percent Is Reported by Many Churches; Graded Sunday School Lessons Are Crit icized; Dr. McKim May Quit High Epis copal Position; the Pope Selects Burial Place in St. Peter's. Reports in hand from St Louis, Chl- ti? . Cincinnati. Baltimore, Pittsburg, Vi dadelphla, Boston and New York in dicate that church attendance, evening as "well as morning on Sundays and at noon on week days where services are held at that hour, are 10 to 35 percent 'argtr than in former years. The re ports cover small as well as big i nurches having1 well known preach- rs, and they were gathered for the most part by newspaper reporters who themselves counted people in the con sul tgatiohs. and save in few Instances, did not take the records of sextons. These reports were confirmed also by some of the secretaries who just at tended the foreign missions conference of the United States and Canada, and tie home missions council of America. Thfse men. accustomed to observe and r'tort, represented every principal re ligious body. The reports are confirmed in another way, in that there is ab i,cne of failures, resignations, sales of church properties and quarrels, which always accompany hard religious times. The same reports cover also the at tendance of men at the morning Sun day services and at the noonday ser vices in down town districts where lield. They come direct from the See on! Presbyterian church, Chicago: Tab-'-rrade Presbyterian and Holy Trinity Episcopal, Philadelphia: Trinity Epis copal, Boston; Walnut Hills Christian, Cincinnati; Broadway Tabernacle Con gregational and Fifth Avenue Baptist, New Tork, and the famous Luther Me morial, Washington, and they show In crease In proportion of men from 3 to 10 percent. Some churches that 10 years ago dd not dream of a Sunday norning congregation not two-thirds vwTnen, sow have, perhaps, not regu larly,, but on some Sundays, more men than women in thepews, by actual count. These reports are statistical. aiKi gathered by men not connected with, the churches. SOTfDAY SCHOOL M2SSOXS ARE SUBJECTS OF CRTICISM. Ths international Sunday school les sons have a graded series, added con Bldexabiy later than the uniform les sons. The committee, recommending the Bible selections, stops there and commentators in each religious body edit the teacher helps. These helps put forth by the Presbyterian board of publication, Philadelphia, have been so severely criticised, several grounds being given, that a committee of the Presbyterian general assembly has of ficially disapproved of them. Tho board is still issuing them, however, it being understood that for business rea sons a change cannot be made until the lapse of a reasonable time. The specific charge is that the cen tral idea of the helps is a thls-world one, social service and no more. Quo tations are making in which the helps mention the United States Steel cor poration as topic of study for boys and the exact date of the transition from girlhood to womanhood, if it be when l-'ng dresses are put on, as topics for girls in Sunday schools. It is charged that absolutely no mention is made of sin, that Jesus is not set down as God, and that the Bible quotations pre hardly more than dragged in to bolsu r up arguments in favor of social ethics of good manners. The conser ' -tives in the church are holding up th shorter catechism as something in which Presbyterians still believe and are demanding that Bible schools teach the Bible. I DR. M'KEtt MAY RETIRE FROM EPISCOPAL POSITION It is stated at this early date, on what seems to be authority that the Hev. Randolph H. McKim, pastor of the church of the Epiphany, Washing ton, has decided not to stand for re election as president of the house -t deputies of the Episcopal general con vention. The reason given is his de sire to take active part in the impor tant debates, as a president cannot do. These debates, it is stated in the re port. Include the removal of the words "Protestant Episcopal" from the title lage of the hook of common prayer, an entering wedge of the high church party toward securing a change of the church. Rev. Mr. McKim belongs to the low church party, and his friends say, in addition to the report, that there are other things the former pres iaent -would seek to accomplish. Some besides him will fight the removal of the words from the title page, it Is S2tT The position compares hi Episcopal church affairs to the speaker of the house at Washington in dignity an! j.ower. Rev. Mr. McKim was elected at Boston in 1904 and reelected at Richmond in 1907 and Cincinnati In 1910. He has been generally regarded as among the greatest of presiding of ficers of the house of deputies, a place famous in Episcopal church annals.

StXHX REVISED BIBLE VERSIONS BEING ISSUED The lev-ised version of the English Bible is so much in evidence that it is often forgotten that there are revised versions in almost all of the principal languages of the world, either made or making. At present the American Bible society is carrying through the press a revised version for the Zulus, made by the missionaries who are working in South Africa.- The version has been in preparation for several ears The older version was issued 30 vears or more ago and was made by the missionaries of the American board.

POPE PIUS RECEIVES THE AMERICAN STUDENTS IN ROatE. A beautiful custom, inaugurated and enlarged by Pope Pius X, is the in formal reception of students in Rome. Th's reception takes place at the be ginning of the .lew ear and is held in a single room in the Vatican, more homelike than some of the great halls. These students number thousands, and so those who are allowed the privi lege are selected on scfco arship. This year an unusual number of young Americans were received. The pick of American students for the priesthood go to Rome and returning home often become prominent in church and na tion. The largest number of students are in the college of the Propaganda, where missionaries are trained. This year, however, some Americans were in the delegation received from the college of the Minor Franciscans. Some of these young friars, born on farms in the United States, will go to the Holy Land to serve at the shrines there.. POPE BREAKS ANCIENT CUSTOM IN CHOOSING .TOMB For centuries popes of Rome have provided, usually in some church rf Rome, their final resting places, after they shall have lain the traditional time in St. Peter's. Away back in early times popes were buried permannetly in St Peter's, but (this plan was Inter rupted six centuries ago by pope Boni face vTU. The late pope Leo XHL had a tomb prepared in the church of St. John of the Lateran, and for years Jt has been complete. His body still rests in the marble sarcophagus, oc cupied by many of his predecessors, over the door leading from St. Peter's to the sacristy, while the tomb in St. John is emBty. During a recent reception to the car ainals pope Plus X. announced his in tention to break the rule of centuries and to prepare his permanent resting place in the crypt of St. Peter's. He stated that he had even selected the spot and has asked the canons of St. Ptter's to take permanent custody. The body of Leo XHX is not removed, ow ing to the fear of an outbreak or dem onstration. Pope Pius X. will avoid any such possibility. Although making preparations for his burial, Pius X. is unusually well at this time. He 13 In his 78th year.

JEWISH WOMEN FORM SOCIETY New Organization Will Occupy a Prom inent Place In the Synagog; Or ganization In Future. A sister body to the Union of Ameri can Hebrew Congregations has been or ganized, under the title. National Fed eration of Temple Sisterhoods. It marks the latest step in the emancipation of woman in the Jewish synagog. The federation meeting has the saction of many congregational sisterhoods, and the movement promises to be a very popular one in the synagog. The meet ing was opened by J. Walter Freiberg, president of the Union of American He brew Congregations, and was addressed by prominent Cincinnati rabbis. The first speaker. Dr. David Philip son, nronounced the movement of mo mentous significance for Judaism. He traced the development or tnese new ideas in recent years, and he said: "Woman's position has always been a distinguished one in the home, but the emancipation of Jews has effected a change in the religious status of wom an. The great leaders of reform have lifted their voices In behalf of freeing women from the inferior religious posi tion held in oriental tradition. I should like 'to see in every congregation the women enlisted in the high service of bringing congregation, and home in closer relation. You have today forged a mighty weapon in the gervlee of Juda ism." Opportunity for Jewish Women. He was followed by Dr. Louis Gross mann, -who extended the congratula tions of his congregation to the newly farmed organization, and said in part: "Judaism has all along been In the of ficial keeping of men. They are enti tled to the support of the women, whose obligation is not smaller and whose op portunities for moral influence are more numerous. The Jewish woman tmust help make the Jewish faith cen tral in the home and in the community, and she has been eauiDDed for the task far better than man. The Jewish people are destined to be the examplar for high morality under modern conditions which make it so difficult The mother in Israel will help Israel to be that in the future, just as she has made our fathers that in the past" The Federation of Temple Sisterhoods represents a clientele of about 25,000 women, connected with the 200 congre gations of the Union of American He brew Congregations.
