Tongues The rapid change hange in the character of the population of New York has led lct tilt the authorities or of the Episcopal church churchIn in this diocese to a departure in enlarging the scope of its work The new plan Is one that lt has been carefully studied by Bishop Pot Potter Potter ter for somE time and provides for conducting the services of the church churchin in eer every lan language spoken by any con considerable considerable number of people In the dt city It is out that N V York has the most population of ar any city in the world not excepting Cairo atto including Italians Tw and ArmenIans to mention only three of the many nationalities and that the church at present makes maltE s no 10 adequate provision for reaching t I h here c elements of o th the population The work among the population Is intended to be not so distinctively missionary work as to provide meals menns of bringing religious services within tb the reach of those who do not speak Eng Bug Engli li h and who otherwise would be de deprived pried of the facilities of the church Bishop Potter announces that lie he has recently lIcensed n a man to preach in inthe inthe the Yiddish dialect and that lie he has th vl view V the appointment of others to con conduct duct services in various arious other othE r Ian Among other departures he 13 suggests that German services be held In
