Sunday School Lesson
Th<: International Uniform Sunday School Lerson for March 17. The Christian Sabbath. Exod. 20:8-11; Matt. 12:1-8: John 20:19; Rev. 1:10. BY IVM. E. GILROY, D. D. Editor of The Coogregatlonalist FSW things mark the teaching of Jesus more clearly in its implications for daily life and in its relations to human customs than the references to the Sabbath that are found in his teaching and in the stories concerning him. It should never be forgotten that Jesus was of Jewish race and religion. He was brought up in the reverent atmosphere that surrounded a child in a devout JewisTl home of that age, and again and again lie indicates in his teaching the authority of the saintly and prophetic teachings of Israel. No man who reads the Old Testament today with reverence and common sense can fail to respond to ti e heights of its moral idealism, particularly if he be a discriminating reader and does not feel that lie has to apologize for atrocious things that men did in the name of God! but against the very spirit of the God whom Jesus revealed. We may recall, for instance, when Jesus was asked to call down fire from heaven and consume the villagers who had treated him inhospitably. and the disciples had reminded him that Elijah had done a similar thing, Jesus replied: “Ye know not what spirit ye are ot” But Jesus drew a very clear distinction between the religion of form and the religion of the spirit, and between the religion of an ignorant and backward age and the religion of an enlightened age. He never made the mistake that many of his followers have made of setting form above the spirit, or of establishing any rule or precept above the rule of the spirit of God in the life of man. It happened that it was around the institution of the Sabbath that much of this clear distinction in the teaching of Jesus developed. The Sabbath, instead of being a boon and blessing to man. had become in the thought of ecclesiastical bigots something of a tyranny. It had been hedged about with forms and purely formal observances that, instead of making it a day of rest and gladness, made it something of a burden. The age of Jesus is not the only age in which that has happened. There are those in the modern world who have forgotten that the Sabbath, was made for man and not man for the Sabbath, just as there are others who do not at all appre-

ciate the fact that the Sabbath when it was made for man was intended to be a reality and blessing. When the day of rest ceases to be a day of gladness and becomes a burden rather than a joy, we ?nay be sure that we Jiavc mst something of its real value. There is. however, a great deal o f difference between the Sabbath being a day of pleasure aand a day of real gladness. If Jesus were here on earth today, it is quite possible that He would lay much more stress upon the observance of the Sabrath, especially when He perceived how little of a day of rest or ot beauty it has become for those who make it a day of strenuous pleasure. We have used the word “Sd'obath” in somewhat a loose sense as applying to the Christian Sunday, though it should be remembered that there was a difference in the fact that the Jews observed the seventh day of the week as a day of rest and among Christians it became the custom to observe the first day of the week. The principle, however, is the same—the principle ot one day’s rest in seven. It is a valuable principle whether one associates its value with religion or with common sense and the needs of practical life. The loss of Sunday to an increasingly large number of workers in the strenuous industrial life of the modern world is a serious problem; and when one considers this problem from the standpoint of any such thing as democratic equality the whole question becomes one of essential justice. Why should anyone in the community work seven days a week for the service of others who enjoy a five-day or a six-day work week? If, as seems inevitable in the modern organization of the world, much work must go on all seven days, surely there are enough people in the world, and especially enough people who are always lacking jobs, to make it unnecessary that anyone shuold work the full seven days or should be deprived of a regular rest day in seven. Probably most liberal spirited people regard Sunday from this point of view. We have lost the old and strict Sabbatarianism, and we are not likely to get it back, but it would be a profound gain if in its place we get the clear recognition of what Jesus insisted upon, that the Sabbath was made for man, and we come to Sin insistence upon the fact that as the Sabbath was made for man, so man ought to have it.

REINER TO CONDUCT SYMPHONY CONCERT Ona B, Talbot Announces Last Orchestral Event of the Present Season at the Murat Theater. THE Cincinnati Symphony orchestra, under the direction of Fritz Reiner, will present the closing orchestra concert of the seventh annual season of the Symphony Society. Ona B. Talbot, managing director, on Monday evening. April 8. at the Murat. The program will include numbers never heard in Indianapolis by any other orchestra. Among them is the new suite of Ottorino Respighi, famous Italian composer, called “The Birds." The policy of presenting new compositions is one of the greatest assets of the great Cindpinati Symphony orchestra. The orchestra was founded in 1895 by Frank V. Van der Stucken, who has given a lifetime
of arduous musical service to the advancement of American composers and their works, and the tradi- ! tion which he has established has made the Cincinnati Symphony orchestra accessible at all times to the finest musical compositions of our generation, as well as of classical literature. , This tendency has been carried to its highest form by the present conductor. Fritz Reiner. Mr. Reiner is essentially a dramatist, is himself a young man and is interested in presenting to the public what young musicians throughout the world are doing. He is not a “modernist'’ in the sense that he repudiates or even detracts from the enormous importance of the great classical masters. Indeed, his representations of Haydn, Mozart, Bach, Gluck and even fifteenth and sixteenth century compositions have won him an enviable position as a classicist of the { first rank. Nevertheless, he holds

that the orchestra must bear a definite relationship to the music of its own times, and that unless it presents to the public the great things which are being done in our own generation, it falls short ol its musical mission. When Mr. Reiner came to the United tSates six years ago. the major symphony orchestras of the United States had what was pracI tically a stereotyped program form. They included a short dramatic overture, a number by a soloist, an orchestral fantasy, suite or bit of incidental music, and a classical symphony. In six years the pioneering work of Mr. Reiner in program-making and the definite, allocation of contemporary composers on these pioneer programs has changed the whole structure of* symphonic presentation in the Uinted States. At the present time no conductor of any other major orchestra makes
up his schedule of programs without asking first. "What is being done by "Reiner and the Cincinnati Symphony orchestra?” tt u a JUNIOR STUDENTS T OGIF.
