sick and sorely tried of mind, Newman seized upon an inspiration and wrote the first famous line: "Lead, kindly light, amid the encircling gloom." The poem was finished at a siting and when he returned, it first appeared in a collection of similar verses by him. Soon after, it was set to music and found its place in the hymnal, where it remains as one of the greatest favorites of a'l time. Rack in England. Newman appeared at St Mary's, but was convinced that his duty lay in bringing back the Catholic spirit in the Angelican church. Eager for a reconciliation between the Roman and Angelican churches, he wrote a series of tracts, and retired to Littiemore. where he established a small religious community. In 1843. Newman resigned from St. Mary's. In 1845, he was received Into the Roman Catholic Church. For a long time, he was at Edgaston. near Birmingham, and in 1854 was director of tjie new Catholic University in Dublin. Leo XIII made John Henry Newman a cardinal in 1879. Ho died in 1890.

Hoyt When Paul of Tarsus came to I Ephesus on his third missionary I journey, he found himself in a city ( dieted to the pagon goddess, i , Diana. It was there that her | famous temple stood, one of the I seven wonders of the world, and ’ her worshipers were constant in j their prayers awl sacrifices to her.; As was his custom Paul started ; to preach the gospel of Jesus! ■ Christ, with far reaching results.! Opposition he met with, of course,; finally this found itself represented by the silversmiths of the i [community. It was this division! |of the crafts who fashioned the • silver goblets, bracelets and other! 1 articles which devout followers J laid on the shrine of Diana. Pauli i was weaning the people from the] I Dianic worship to the Christian •| faith. The silver trade suffered as . Paul’s good work increased. So 1 they arose and formed a mob against him. “Great is Diana of the Ephes-! ! ians!” was their cry; and the un'l thinking mob l joined in, until Paul i '. left the city. How characteristic is this trick ! We find it today, especially in the; political field, where astute lead ] | ers fashion some popular slogan to lead the unthinking mob in i their wake. And we find it. un-| I fortunately, in many instances [ j where hypocrites pretend a re-1 ’| ligion they do not truly feel to' ] increase their business powers or | the-ir social prestige. Theirs is! | not a heartfelt Christian faith. It j is only an appearance — church 1 ] attendance, contributions to char- 1 j tty. social services—without a real! ’ understanding of the true meaning! 1 of Christianity. | The real Christian is one who I holds his religion above all else. • He lives a Christian life for the! i innate joy of doing good, not for i what it may bring to him. Forsake appearances and wor- 1 ! ship God with a lowly and a contrite heart. For that is the true! ;I Christianity that profits a man | best. o , Calvary Evangelical Church Sunday School at 9:30 Chalmer' ,| M lle; Siipt.

w * v tS, When this became known, Jews and Greeks who ' dv.elt in Ephesus were greatly impressed. There were many who practiced magical arts and these brought their books to the market-place and burneo them ini a huge bonfire. At last, worshipers of Diana became so riotous that it was decided best to leave the city for a time.
