End of Jazz Age in Sight
LIFE BECOMING MORE NORMAL VIEWS OF AMERICAN BISHOP. New York, July 15. The end of the jazz age is in sight, said Rev. William T. Manning, Episcopal Bishop of New York, when he sailed aboard the Cunard liner Berengaria for a vacation abroad with his wife and two daughters ,the Misses Elizabeth and Frances Manning. “None who read history,” said Bishop Manning, “can think that the world is growing worse. On the whole it is becoming better. “Smoking and drinking among women is but a part of the jazz period and is beginning to right itself. The youth of this age have too much sense to continue this sort of tiling. A canvass of colleges recently indicated that less liquor is being consumed.
“The jazz age has reached its peak and we are coming to a more norma] outlook. Music, literature and the other departments of life have reflected the jazz age, but they, too, are showing signs of returning to normalcy. “Because of the sincerity and desire to face facts] Hie youth of this age, more than in any other age, is asserting itself through its religion nnd good sense. They will right themselves.” Dr. Manning, who will attend a meeting of the continuation committee, at Berne, Switzerland, August 23 to August 25, as a representative of the Episcopal Church, is hopeful of the eventual reunion of Protectants and Catholic in one church. For the last ten years a committee lias been planning a world conference on “faith and order,” to be held at Lausanne in August, 1927. That meeting. Dr. Manning trusts, will result in unity of all Christians. “We hope in time it will lead to complete unity,” he said. Ono of the first questions to be taken up will be uniform laws for marriag- ami divorce in all churches.
