DID NOT KNOW EASTER STORY
Firty girls going through a general knowledge test in the forces were asked what Raster meant,. and not one of them knew. This was revealed by Mr Frederick P. Wood, chairman of the " Faith of the Times" campaign recently conducted at the Albert Ball London. He added that 100 men were asked if they • could continue the words, " Our Father which art in heaven," and only 70 of them could add anything. Mr Wood said: ".'We feel that there is stilla great deal of cynical godlessness and an abysmal ignorance of Bible truth, and in many directions complete bewilderment caused by a lot of vague nebulous teaching, 'We see on all sides moral and spiritual bankruptcy, and we have felt the tremendous need that something' of this sort should be undertaken. It is not a flash-m-tbe-pan movement, but something solid and deep."
