"This modern mind is the greates fraud in the world," declared the. Right Reverend Arthur Fogey Winnington-Ingram, Bishop of London, in the short address which he delivered to 200 guests of the St. Paul's Society in the Phillips Brooks House last night. The British Bishop went on to say that he had known young men intimately for 40 years, and that they were confronted by the same problems and met them in the same way today as they did when he was an undergraduate.
The Lord Bishop's subject was, "Why am I a Christian?" He outlined briefly the various stages of uncertainty through which he had gone as a college man and averred that he fully believed in the saying that "Every man must be his own Columbus and find his continent of truth." He subsequently gave four reasons which combined to convince him that the world was turning inevitably more and more towards. Christianity. Recently one of England's most eminent financiers approached him with the conviction that the Anglican Church was the only faction in England that could repair conditions in the country.
Cites Ghandi in India
The other supports for his conviction were based on the work which missionaries had done. He cites Ghandi's work in India, and the call that had been raised for church workers both in foreign lands and in the London Police Courts.
Owing to a burn on his arm which the Bishop received recently, he is still carrying the injured member in a sling and will be unable to engage in the golf and tennis matches which he had anticipated.
Doctor Ingram is the 108th Bishop of London, and when at home lives in the building which his predecessors have inhabited for over 1300 years. The prelate of the English Church is a direct descendant of the lords of Fulham, who were high among the nobility of the land in the days of St. Erken wald, a dozen centuries ago.
The Lord Bishop will preach in Appleton Chapel at the 11 o'clock service tomorrow, and will conduct the regular service their on Monday morning. Tonight he will speak at a special students service at St. Paul's Cathedral in Boston.
