A Plea for Open Churches.
To ite editor of t NsW'.
Sir-The article written by Rey. Charies
Henry Wells of St: Andrews Church to Mayor
tillien. and published in the News October 12.
should have the 'approbation of all the clergy
and members of churches of all denomina tions and creeds.
Dr. Wells wrote to Mayor Gillen regarding
the closing of the churches during the in-A
fluensa epidemic, and those who have read
the article clearly understand that the plea
is not by any meoans for discrimination or for
favoritism, so far as the church'is concerned.
Dr. Wells's article reaches further than that
and touches on the importance of the church
among the people in times of war as well
as peace. In times of disaster as well as in
times of prosperity. Dr. Wells lifts the
church up to the place where it belongs as an
institution of the Holy God, a place where the
Great Father of mankind meets and blesses
his people. A sanctuary where men are
hefped and healed of the disease of sin.
The tendency today by many is to consider
the church as a human rather than a divine
institution, and secondary rather than pri mary.. The fuel administration threatens to
close the churches just as though they were
of no real importance to men. The Mayor
closes the churches an4 plamsa them in the
same category as saloons. dance halls and
theaterf.. and the clergy sit by and raise no
voles. Where Is the voice of the prophet?
Where is the voieeof the man of God, who
in the time of cealamity cried out. Come ye.
come ye, assemble ye' before the Lord your
God and pray mightily to Him that the thing
come not to pass."
tNarrow-minded' No. we are not narrow minded. We hope we are spiritual-minded
and we trust that we know enough about
God and that we have such a clearness of
vision that we see far beyond ourselves. It
is not alone the conference In the office of
the Mayor or the office of the Board of,wtasth that will stay the Sand of pesenance.
is not tho great army of met or the mil of detars that will save ot.'r dation.
'4 ortant as all these thinks are. God Is the
ruler of nations; God showed his hand to
Alasander, to Caesar. to Napoleon, and said:
"Thus far shall thou go and ne furthem." It
Is by God that we live and not by might and
power. It is our duty, then. when pestilence
is about us. to enter the house of the Lord
God and pray mightily to Him for help. In stead of this we lock the doors of His temple
as though there were pestilence within. How
may we hope.to have the Divin5"favor? We
might better have the spirit of Esther and,
say, "We will go before.the King. and, if
we perisby we perish." or, htter, we should
have the 'ood of the.nhartyvr and run the
risk of contagion that God might be honored
in his temple and jhat prayer might be
offered for our help and deliverance.,
Think yeu that relief would not come? Oh.
where Is our faith? Whaers Is the faith of
eer fathers of days gone.by? If prayers are
only formal we eannot expect mush. But
