THE WHOLE BIBLE IN ENGLISH UNIVERSITIES The Life of Faith (English) calls attention to the following important letter issued and signed by about twenty prominent educators in Eng land, Ireland, Scotland and Wales, de claring their faith in the Bible as the Word of God, and asking for the co operation of Christian men and women: “Dear Sir,—May we enlist your sympathy in our effort to make known to the Christian public that, in spite of the tremendous advance of destruc tive criticism in our Universities, there are still groups of men and women who stand for the fundamen tals of the Faith, and believe the en tire Bible not only to contain but to be the word of God. The basis upon which these groups unite includes belief in the Deity of our Lord Jesus Christ; the Person and Deity of the Holy Spirit; man’s sinful state by nature; and the necessity of a personal acceptance of God’s re deeming grace, as manifested in the death of Jesus Christ on Calvary.

Inviting the prayerful co-operation of all who love the Lord Jesus Christ, We remain, Yours faithfully, Communications with regard to in dividuals and groups at any provincial universities other than the above men tioned, and all general correspond ence, should be addressed to C. G. Webb-Peploe, Bracken Glen, Farnbor- ough, Hants (retiring president Cam bridge InterrCollegiate Christian Un ion ).” A NOTABLE RESOLUTION In Our Hope, Dr. Gaebelein calls at tention to a notable resolution passed by the Legislature of South Dakota, as follows: “That the people of South Dakota be enjoined to at once address them selves to renewed effort to restore the balance between the spiritual and the material, that our children be reared up in the precepts of fundamental righteousness. “That the Churches and Sabbath Schools be constrained to intensify their work and to extend it to every child within their respective spheres of influence.

Reform in School Methods “That the schools promptly re form their methods so that the rudi mentary studies as well as the sciences be taught only as subordinate to right eousness. That the emphasis be placed upon morality, good conscience, re spect for parents, reverence for age and experience, and that all learning is but the handmaiden of eternal goodness. “That in the judgment of the Legis lature of South Dakota, that only upon the principles herein suggested can the true balance be restored and the crime wave checked and civilization preserved.”
