11 EVENlHGr kEDGEB-PHIEADELPHIA, MONDAY. FEBRTJABY 22k 1915. 3 f RELIGIOUS LIBERALS SAY MANY CHURCHES ARE WASTING EFFORT Rev. Samuel Eliot Tells Congress o f National Federation There Are "Too Many Superfluous Christians. Speaker ABserts Spirit of Ago Has Grown Weary of Theo logical Controversy and Needs Application of Princi ples Which Christ Taught. i mixture of conservatism and radical ism is tho Ideal ot religions, In tlio opin ion of tho Rev. Samuel Eliot, ot Boston, president ot tlio American Unitarian As sociation, who declared thoro voro "too piany superfluous Christians" throughout the country In his address today before tho Natlonnl Federation of Religious Jjbcrala at tho Friends' Meeting House, Mill and Raco streets, assembled In this r' city tor tho fifth annual congress of the federation. Doctor Eliot declared that It v,na "piti ful to soo ministers serving Christ In com munities supporting three churches where there Is not room for one." 'I Know of ono city of 100,000 Inhabi tants where tho majority of tho residents are Catholics. They hnvo four well-established parishes, whllo tho Protestants, who aro In tho minority, romombor, are supporting El churches, no ono of them strong and vigorous." In closing his address, Mr. Eliot said: "Here, at least, Is a Uttlo band of poo plo who believe In tho things of this world which wo seo as temporal and In tho unseen things as spiritual. Most peoplo do not seem to bo ablo to compre hend tho liberal. They must cither bo radical or conservative Wo want a mix ture of both. That Is our Ideal of re ligion." Although tho congress Is not declared to be held In opposition to tho "Billy" Sun day iclal, tho opening remarks of the Itcv. Thomas W. lllman, pastor of All Souls Unlvcrsallst Church, West Phila delphia, In behalf ot tho Liberal Minis ters' Club of this city, wore construed by many to bo a challenge to tho strenuous baseball evangelist. "Liberals and progressives aro none too numerous in this city," said Mr. lllman, "and so you look very good to us. Wo need you to rofrcsh a sorely strained spirit of tolerance. Wo liberals of Phila delphia havo been called upon to endure tho most Insulting Intolerance, which loudly lamented Its Inability to perpetrate, as present experience, tho future damna tion it so lavishly Invoked and threatened. Wo need you to help us bo patient and sympathetic with our fellow human be ings In their BlownoBS to receive tho larger truths and finer faiths. You will do cur needy city of Philadelphia much good." Tho koynoto of tho cntlro movement was struck by the Rev. Charles W. Wendte, cf Boston, executive secretary of tho Na tional Federation of Religious Liberals, when, in his report, he said: "Tho spirit of our ago has grown sick end tired of religious controversy, dog matic assumptions of superior knowledge and authority by both radicals and con servatives, and Interdenominational feuds, and is demanding a larger vision and a more conciliatory and inclusive spirit. Tho need of tho times is not dogmatism, blind faith and abstract proachlng. Earn est and frank testimony should bo given for religious and social rofsim, and ex isting evils in church and b. lety should bo fearlessly denounced. Wo must learn to apply tho doctrines and ethics which Christ taught to the many social prob lems of tho times. By doing bo wo will give Christianity a real moaning and imake It a powerful force."

Plantou, of Philadelphia; the second was Charles "W. Peale, also of Philadelphia, Next was Samuel W. Stockton, another Philadelphlan, whose manufacture was the first to attain commercial Importance, dating from about 182S. Hq was followed by Ills nephew and name. uaKe, Dr. Samuel Stockton White, who in 1814 laid the foundation for the business of this company. In 1S76 Doctor White was credited with making "aver four mil lions of teeth, about two. thirds of the whole number used In the world." Long beforo this the business of the house had been extended to comprise the manufacture of every article needed ty the dentist In his practice Much of Us success has been due. to its fostering of the Inven tive faculty among dentists and tha painstaking develop ment of their Ideas Into practical devices.
