I once sent a kind of encyclical letter to the whole family connection; but as the delusion under which they labor is still common, and often leads to the wasting of time, the contempt of honest study or humble labor, and the misapplication of intelligence not so far below mediocrity as to be incapable of affording a respectable return when employed in the proper direction, I thought this picture from life might also be of service.
"Oh, Mr Frank, Mr Frank!" he cried beseechingly, "spare me spare me you don't know all you're labouring under a great misapplication; if you only knew all, you'd think very indifferently of me."

It is my view that our only hope of social progress lies in the possibility of this class being stirred to effort. The tendency of their present education a misapplication of the word must be counteracted.
I cannot help thinking that you are fighting merely with a word. Certainly, if the phrase ever was used in that sense, there is no meaning of the kind attached to it now: it stands merely for the forms of public worship." "Were there no such thing as Divine Service in the true sense of the word, then, indeed it would scarcely be worth while to quarrel with its misapplication.
