Interesting Talk At local Church y

A most profitable time wu en- joyed in Central. Christian Church, when Mr. William L. Bailey, Pro- fessor Emeritus, Northwestern University. Chicago addressed an interested and appreciative audi- ence last night. Profusor Bailey while with the Northwestern Uni- versity was head of the Depart- ment of Sociology and was lecturer in applied Christianity. A graduate of Queen's University Mr. Bailey has devoted his life to lecturing which has taken him into the lead- ing Universltles of the United States. Cornell. Wisconsin. Michi- gan. Columbia and etc.

Before retiring and having taken up residence in Charlottetown last year, Professor Bailey completed five years as visiting-Professor with the University of Maryland and lecturer to Army and Air H. 13.. Staff, Washington.

In direct keeping with his pres- ent work which is the perfectng for publication a book on the Gospels which has required fifty years of meticulous preparation and study. Professor Bailey spoke and showed reproductions upon two phases of his field of applied Ohristianity. "The Life of Christ" a set of 25 slides reproduced from ancient and exclusive art. in carving and paintings: and "How We Got our Bible" I. detailed review of the evoluton in printing methods and the perils and dangers of human defeat in printing and inspired scriptures. These frames confirm Professor Bailey's claim of owning probably one of the best collections of recent Christian art and historic manuscripts of the Bible in the world.

Making graphic. compass of knowledge by helpful running commentary. Professor Bailey has confirmed this also. that as ever ancient or modern in the Word of God is-it remains forever and certainly the infallible Word of God. Even though produced and reproduced a thousand times and now written in a thousand tongues it is ever the same the old. old story of God and His love.

Professor Bailey was introduced by the Minister. Mr. Dunbar. An expression of deep thanks was also expressed by the Minister on be- half ol the Women's Missionary Society who sponsored the occasion.

Rupondlng to the need of neighbors across the sea, seeking rehabilitation after the dreadful flood disaster which swept their lands recently, this organization of ladies sponsored a sacred conceit prepared and directed by the church organist. Miss Thelma Burns. The largely attended con- cert. gave generously the amount of 580.00 to this project. which has since been forwarded by the Sec-

Although the absorbing plot chief- ly concern: the three cornered love affair of a Prince, 3 Princess and an Archduke, the more down-'to- earth matrimonial difficultia of an Irish doorman and his even more Irish wife. and of I charming young couple whose engagement is pres- ently suspended, add heart inter- est and humour to the play.

Princess Alma wu ccpcbly play- ed by Joan Kane. and in the roles of her suitors were Elmer Power as Prince August, and St. Clair Quinn as Gottlleb, the archduke,

Rafferty, an Irinhman who was called upon to impersonate the Prince, was played by Allan Shep- herd. and the part. of his wife Mui- gie tw Gertrude Balsam. Both were excellent. and time and again their Irish wit moved the audience to gales of laughter.

Another highlight of the perfor- mance was the comedy role of Po- nonulua. ex-pertiv handled by Plus Callaghan. As head of the society for eradicating rovalty, he added a great deal of colour to the pm- duction.

The young American couole. Whose love affairs also Inspired considerable merriment. were por- traved by Mildred Walker. as June Callaghan, it very normal young American stenographer. who Lg en.
