WORLD CRISIS
A CHANGE COMING
WHAT WILL IT BE?
Whether tho great world change which, some thinkeTs foresaw, -would bo constructive or destructive, was a point touched upon by Dr. T. H. Sprott, Bishop of Wellington, in his sermon yesterday at St. James's Church, Lower Hutt, during the institution there of the Rev. H. E. K. Fry, formerly Vicar of St. Mark's Church, Wellington. Tho world was now passing through the greatest crisis in human history, said Dr. Sprott, the greatest because it was worldwide. It was a crisis not only economic, political, and social, but also- moral and religious. There was a most dangerous religious drift in progress—a drift which showed itself hero merely in indifference and apathy, but which in one large country had reached tho stage of an attempt to' crush out religion altogether. The drift was causing a serious breakdown in moral law. Many thinkers were of the opinion that a tremendous change was coming. The grpat thing was whether the. tendency of the change was to be constructive or destructive. .
