Necessity of Parallel Forces In Modern Living "Structure and Concept." as par allel forces of life formed the theme of yesterday's chapel address by Dr. D. Wilmot Gateson, rector of the Church of the Saviour, in Philadel phia. Just as society has its laws and cus toms which protect human welfare, so religion has its creeds and codes to take care of our spiritual well-be ing, the' rector declared, in pointing out the Influence of patterns on the universe in all its aspects from art, nature and science to psychological factors ,of our mental and nervous life. "To get on in this world, both the body and the mind must be kept in the best of physical condition:" Dr. l'Cateson pointed out in developing his idea, "One needs the other: they arc always meeting in a complementary reaction:" The need for a balance between structure and concept was stressed by Dr. Gateson' who recalled the simple origins .of the Christian religion and then contrasted them with the era of magnificent construction which foi -1 lowed. This expression of the triutimh of structure was found inadequate, he ,said, when the inner qualities of social, moral, and spiritual truth were needed by' the world.
