CHRISTIANITY’S PLACE
BUILDING NEW WORLD ADDRESS BY DR. POOLE The stabilisation of human nature as well as of currency is what Dr. Poole considers necessary for successfully building up the world. In explaining the place of Christian education in the making of a new world, Dr. Poole told an audience at the Unity Hall last evening that the work of Christian teachers was an imperative one. We had grown up to believe that battleships were more protective than friendships, that coupons had more value than conscience, pleasure more than duty, moneybags more than men. The World’s Sunday School Association, which sought to give the peoples of all nations a fresh standard of value, was a spiritual League of Nations, which was a different thing from a “league of notions.” Sir Edward Sharpe also addressed the meeting, over which the Rev. F. A. Thompson, president of the Auckland Sunday School Union, presided.
