hypocrisy; but everywhere, In every
creed and in none, we join in the prayer
he taught us.
There is a sertinfog coelradkttion about
this whole matter of peayee. Men al-
ways have prayed; they petty in every
religion; honest, open-eyed 11100 of bust-

futl well that noluval laws cannot be

These are even more serious difflcul-

Cars we ceneelve that a great Father,

would not the act, of prayer be gaining
