Like Mr.
Winston Churchill, he diverts his leisure with a paintbrush.
One is disposed to judge that the mind of this very fiery particle is too busy with side-issues to make acquaintance with the deeper mysteries of his religion.

Matthew Arnold, quoting from _The Times_ a sentence to the effect that the chief Dissenting ministers are becoming quite the intellectual equals of the ablest of the clergy, referred it to the famous Dr.Dale of Birmingham, and remarked: "I have no fears concerning Mr.Dale's intellectual muscles; what I am a little uneasy about is his religious temper.
