THE SALE OF INDULGENCES
Thla Waa Reaolutely Oppoeed by Larther aa Unchrittlan—Faur Hun- dradth AnniverMry ef the Rtfernui- tion te Be Widely Celebrated en Oct. SI in Many Churchea.
Wben th* crowds of worahlpen In Wittenberg from all orer Burope came to the Churcb they were aatonlshed to find nailed to the door an announce¬ ment of a debate. It waa not nnoenal to find ench annonncementa on the Ghordi door, for It waa tbe UnlTcndty BnlletlQ Board. Profeseors and atu¬ denta made their annonncementa there. Bot thla debate called in qnestion the ery thing for which they had all come to Wlttenberr—the granting of indul- geocee by the Church.
Indalgencee bad been the custom In the Church for generationa. They bad gradually aaeumed a regular form and had flnalljr become a busineas for rais¬ ing money for Chnrch purposes. A banking bouse In Germany, the Fug- gera, handled the sale there. Indul¬ gence was the remisfdon of penalties impofled by the Church before complete forgiveness of aln wns received. If the penalties were not paid fur all sins before death they hnd to be paid in Purgatory. Indulgences, however, could be bought for the dead, releasing them from their pains. It soon became "pay your money and do "what you please."
A Qreat Prog reaal ve.
This announcement of debate bad been posted by Martin Luther, a monk of the order of Augustine Hermits. He was profes.sor at the University and had received a Doctor's degree. He was a progressive, alive- to tbe is¬ sues of the day. But most of all be waa a man of conscience. He bad struggled for years to attain peace with Ood, but had failed to find it through indulgences and the like. But when be put simple faith in Christ he found it, and after that he was the en¬ emy of forma and empty observancee.
Wben the Pope granted this indol- gence Prederick, the ruler of Electoral Saxony, of which Wittenberg was the capital, forbade the agents of the Pope to sell indulgences In his territory. They came to nearby places and the people of Frederick's duchy went over the '*ne and obtained XtittA. The moral eff^t was bad. To clear up the whole question of indulgences, wbicb was agi¬ tating everyone more et' less, Luther proposed this debate. The matter bad never been taken up and settled by the Churcb authorities.
Printer'a Ink.
Luther's attitude was unmistakable. He wns opposed to the whole thing as un-Chrlstlan. Many agreed with blm.
Dr. Martin Luther.
Mnuy frowned. All road the theses with deep Interest. They copied them. .Some translated tbem from tho Latin of the University into the language of 1h»> people. Printers published hun- drt'ds of copies, and In a few weeka they were all ovtr Europe. The de¬ bute wus held ut every umrket plnce und wine sliop, not at the Uuiversity, as proposed. Tbe Pope at first took it lightly, us u mere monkish quarrel. But when the Church was stirred every¬ where uud the Income from the sale seriously threatened he tried to make Luther recaut, but in valu.
The posting of these theses on Oct. 31, 1517, marks the betjluuing of the Uoforuiutiou and the Era of Protetitant Christianity.
President Butler of Columbia Uni¬ versity wrote to tbe New York Celebra¬ tion Committee: **To recall to the mind uf tbe twenUeth century the signifi¬ cance of the great movement kuuwn aa the Uefurmutiun Is valuable service. If the world needed a religious and philosophical reformation iu the slz- teeqth century in order to emancipatQ the'individual surely It needs a social aud pulttlctti refuruiatlou iu the twen¬ tieth century for tbe same purpoae.'*
"It Is moet fltting that there ahoold b« aome general celebration ot tbe ITour Hundredth Anniversary of tbe ReforiuaUua," writes Preaident Hlb- bea of Princeton Uuiversity. "Tbls ia • matter of bttaraat aad cuaoem oot only for the Lutberan churcbae ot the oovBtry, but fur all wbo draw tbiite' to«- dtttoos aod tnaiiUmtlaa tN* tfkm wert
BOY SCOUTS HAVE MANY ADVENTURES
On Friday, October 12th, Scoutmas¬ ter Mr. W. Van Neaa and two friends went on a bicycle ride Vlth alx Scouts, Alfred H. C. Brown, Richard P. J. Brown. Oeorge Bynner. Paul McAvoy, John McAvoy and John Ryan. The 'boys met at Mr. Van Ness's houae and rode to Rooaevelt, here they turned eaat along the Meadow BrooK Road until they reach¬ ed Merrick Avenue. Prom tbere they rode north along Merrick Avenue un¬ til Westbury was reached. At West¬ bury they stopped to repair John Mc- Avoy's chain, and continued north along Merrick Avenue. After a drill in a vacant lot they ate their lunch. After dinner they played games and then started for home. They had the wind against them on the way home, and were forced when they reached Hempstead Plains to get off their wheels and walk, becauae It was no use to try and ride against a acventy- mlle-an-hour gale. When the wind changed they started to ride again, when soon it began to rain. They went in a house for shelter, but soon decided it was an all night rain, so they started out and rode seven miles home In the storm. This la the sec¬ ond trip, and on Sunday there will be another. The trip registered 32 milea.
KaWra In Prtrmt.
"Romewhere In France there le a ! large camp of Knfflrs." aaya a rom^- apondont of th€ Spectator. "When 1 timt aaw thorn, my British ignorance and pi¥Jii(lico mnde me Jnmp to the roncln.^on that they were the scum from the mines of Routh Afrira. To my utter flsfoninhment, howerer. I have since discovered that W per cent of these blacks (Baimtoa and ZnlnaT are the prwluct of onr mission achoola.
"They are Chriatian meti—have tbeir own native Padre—and thirty or forty of Ihem knew all ahont Donald Hankey, and were qnlte familiar with hiR book. 'A Student In Arms!' There may be white camps where the same may be said of them, hnt I haven't come across them yet."

Slashes Ruee Alphabet.
Rus-slan Minister of Education Man- ulloff Is ruthlessly cleansing the Cyrillic alphabet of superfluities. By decree he haa ahollahed the speclflc Russian leWer "ynt," confusion of which with "e" in one of the woee of schooling, abolished also the nse In Russian of the Greek "theta," former¬ ly nsed Indlscrlralna'tely with "phi," and flnally abolished the "hard sign" placed after consonants.
The reforms excite mixed feelings. Children and utilitarians rejoice, but the novelist, Ix>onld Andreyeff, says that "such changes rob onr classics of their traditional form and atmosphere. We feel we are reading dialect."
