Ephesian Diana

William Norman Guthrie* last week epigramatized his religion. Said he: "In the trinity of Truth, Goodness, Beauty, Beauty is supreme. Until Christianity can talk Beauty it has no show. Religion must think itself into terms of Beauty and not terms of flat Truth. Modern silver and goldsmiths, to put the matter in another way, are making many-breasted Dianas of the Ephesians, whereas they should be making Christs. Artists draw their inspirations from women of ill fame and many theatres are devoted to the same base uses. The arts of these should be turned to religion."

*Rector of St. Mark's-in-the-Bouwerie, Manhattan, thorn-in-the-flesh of William T. Manning, Bishop.
