The churches are derelict in their
duty in respect to the divorce evil.
The ministers are not keeping
themselves informed of the alarming
situation except in a general ajad
casual way.
These were important conclusions
in the report of the special commit
tee on Christian life and work which
was submitted to the Friday after
noon session of the Northern Pres
byterian Assembly, by which it was
unanimously adopted.
.The report contained a strong rec
ommendation for a nation-wide cam
paign against the evil and called up
on the ministers to awake from the
apathy which appears to have af
flicted them.
A paragraph was inserted in the
report advocating work for uniform
legislation on divorce in the various
8tates
Church’s Apathy Scored.
Speaking of the rise and spread
of various cults and creels another
report said that if the church had
been awake to its mission in the
world, Christian Science never would
have obtained the foothold which it
now enjoys. More attention should
have been paid to ,the lefficacy of
^sryer, and the healing of the spirit
and the body by spiritual 'means, the
report* says. |
The main features in the reporf on
divorce were embodied in the follow
ing paragraphs:
We call the attention of the
general assembly to the sad and
alarming situation pertaining to
marriage and divorce. Cccurate
statistics on this important sub
ject show that the evil is steadily
Increasing
This matter is pre-eminently
the care of the church. It reaches
down to the vitals of the church
and the state. Your committee
has corresponded directly with
the authorities In several of our
synods and presbyteries and re
port a desire on the part of many
to take advanced steps pertaining
to the regulation of malriage and
divorce. But it is evident that
our ministers and our churches
are not grappling with this great
evil as they should. They are
not keeping themselves informed
as to the situation except in a
general way. The result is that
the movement for reform needs
a great new stimulus of thought
and effort.
. . . . The Resolutions Urged
We recommend the following
resolutions:
That our ministers and church
courts be urged to organize a
new and widespread campaign of
education in the churches, re
garding the sac-redness of mar
riage and the evils of divorce,
and to arouse all classes in the
community by means of the
press, the school and the social
agencies to the need of reform.
That all our ministers and
church courts be urged to study
the present laws of each State
on marriage and divorce, with
the aid of earnest Christian law-
years and other laymen, with a
view to the Introduction of new
and Improved codes pertaining to
marriage and divorce, and to that
end that competent committees
be created to prosecute the mat
ter successfully.
That the committee on Chris
tian life and work communicate
with the Presbyteries on the sub
ject of the laws of the tSate and
the United States, both as to
marriage and divorce, recom
mending action by each in order
to secure proper regulations by
the State in connection with
marriage and al$o to-secure such
legislation as w^j m^ke the laws

C. S. Walraven Badly Hurt When
Truck Leaps Embankment f
Near Tech Dormitory.
C. S. Walraven was seriously
crushed in the spectacular leap of a
heavy motor truck down a 40-foot
embankment in front of a Tech dor
mitory on West North Avenue Fri
day afternoon.
Walraven was riding on the .seat
with the driver. Just as they started
down the incline in front of (he
school, the driver lost all control of
the machine. Both men tugged at
the steering wheel, but without avail.
It was too late to jump when the
truck hit the embankment and made
its 40-foot plunge. Walraven was
rescued from underneath the ma
chine and was hurried to Grady Hos
pital.
His j.mbs and body were badly
crushed.
Walraven was partially paralyzed
by the shook. The physicians were
unable to e«y whether he would re
cover the use of his limbs.
