“ABOLISH SHIBBOLETHS," SAYS DEAN BARNETT
VIEWS ON REVISED BOOK
(From Our Own Correspondent) HAMILTON, To-day. The opinion that disestablish- . ment would be preferable to absence of spiritual freedom was expressed by Dean Barnett, when speaking on the revised Prayer Book in St. Peter's Cathedral last evening. The preacher condemned the system which gave the House of Commons, many of whose members were not Christians, the final say in questions of the gravest importance to the Church. He put down the defeat of the measure solely to the change of view of the moderate Anglo-Catholics, snd to the influence exerted by the “Church Times.” “I urge you all to abolish shibboleths and petty differences in connection with forms of worship, and to get down on your knees and pray,” he concluded.
