The conquest of the continent . guide and help? Hasthe Church which likes to speak and think ofherself as peculiarly ^^the American Churchany conspicuous part to play in the social andspiritual training of these new Americans?In many a diocese and parish earnest and ef-fective work is being done, but not every bishopand priest has Bishop Whipples vision, orthinks of the foreigner whom he passes on thestreet as one whom he has been sent to of us see only an alien for whom theChurch can have no message, either becausethe quantity and quality of religion wliich healready possesses is sufficient for him, or be-cause the Church can no longer speak the lan-guage of Pentecost.
