How Important Is Atmosphere?
A, well-known British author
of a generation ago was Annie
S. Swan. She wrote several best
selling novels and a large num

years. (
Hei' husband was an officei’ in
the British Army during the
First World Wai’ and she gave
herself- unsparingly to war work.
She was a frail, retiring little
lady but developed into
forceful .and persuasive

■She had many amusing ex
periences. She decided not ,to at

the Kaiser's name, noi' that of
German war-lords. When in the
Middle-West .she so won the
hearts of listeners that hundreds
of German matrons, who heard
her story, became devoted
friends.
One evening she was to speak
in a town near Chicago. When
introducing h e i' the chairman
told the audience that she had
three sons — that .veiw, hour —
in the trenches. That picture
certainly created the right atmos
phere and the audience was deep
ly .touched even before she began
her speech. But the incident put
Annie Swan in a dilemma. She
,had no sons in the war. What
was she .to do, contradict the
chairman, or leave it alone? She
did not wish to embarrass the
man so she ignored it.
After the meeting she asked
him where he got the erroneous
information about her three sons
in the trenches. He just smiled.
He knew quite .well she hadn’t
any sons at the front, but he
said, triumphantly; “Lady, the
chief thing is to get the right
atmosphere .isn’t it, and we
certainly got that?*
We do not commend the meth
ods used by this chairman but he
was right .in stressing the im
portance of atmosphere. We
sometimes think that all meet
ings, including gatherings for
public worship, are successful or
otherwise, according to .the at
