in the Pulpit

After a long decline, there does seem


to be a renewal of interest in developing
preaching skills [Dec. 31]. Many ofuswho
came out of the seminaries in the 1950s
thought there must be a better way to
communicate the message, because
preaching seemed to encourage passive
congregations and ego-inflated ministers.
Preparation and delivery of sermons got
less effort than they deserved. Perhaps
there is now a trend the other way.
I myself employed a speech instructor
to work with me on my preaching after
noticing that I was bored halfway through
the sermon.
(The Rev.) C. Fred Jenkins, Stated Clerk
Presbytery of the Western Reserve
Cleveland

In spite of the admiration I have for


the preachers you covered, I still feel the
most important things happening in the
Body of Christ today probably involve less
well-known men and women of God,
working in groups of fewer than 100.
Doug Norquist
St. Paul

As a member of an “unprogrammed”
meeting of the Religious Society of
Friends (Quakers), I wish your article on
preaching had mentioned that many find
God without the debatable aid of a hired
vocal ministry.

others think it is dormant, many of us
still believe that preaching can be deci-

— _ Dont buy
Life Insurance!

...Until you get the facts.)


Most people feel life insurance companies are pretty much the same. Nothing could be further from the
truth. There is a difference. Today the difference in net cost between Northwestern and other life insurance
companies can be 50% or more.
Since 1857 Northwestern Mutual Life has dedicated itself to providing the best life insurance value. We've
actually lowered the net cost of our life insurance 21 times in the last 28 years. This history of outstanding
performance will result in the dividend exceeding the annual premium on over a half million policies in
1980. That’s 20% of our premium-paying policies!
Before you buy any life insurance policy, wouldn't you like to know more —without any obligation? We'd
like you to.

GET THE FACTS. GET OUR COST COMPARISON BOOKLET.


CALL TOLL-FREE 800-558-9662 (WISCONSIN RESIDENTS CALL 800-242-7169)
We feel confident that the more you know about life insurance, the more you'll appreciate our superiority.

was still clear in May but had been
blocked by sand by November. The Star
indicated that the opening had gradually
silted up during the intervening months.
The newspaper concluded that by July 18
the gap would have been too narrow and
shallow to let in a northward current of
any strength. That interpretation concurs
with what Ralph Martin, racing secretary
of the local yacht club for 40 years, told

said that winter storms in 1968-69 had so
narrowed the opening in the sand bar as
to reduce drastically the strength of the

that steel and oil led

“Oilwell” was born in
1862, soon after the first com-
mercial well was developed in
America. For nearly half a cen-
tury it’s been a part of the U.S.
Steel family, and today it’s one of
our busiest members.
Through this division we
directly serve the booming energy
industry. Worldwide. We manufacture
a broad range of machinery and
equipment for the drilling and produc-
tion of petroleum and natural gas.
Oilwell pumps, for example, have
long been regarded as reliable work-
horses for drilling and production. They
are used extensively in the refining, chemi-
cal and mining industries, too.
Based on our long experience in the
“oil patch,’ we also offer know-how in the
form of engineering and maintenance serv-
ices. Near major drilling and producing areas
of the United States, Canada, and overseas,
you'll find Oilwell field stores. The typical store
stocks about 6,000 different items—tools, parts,
accessories—with another 15,000 available on
order.
The development of new reserves of energy is
critical to the economic health of the whole Western
world. Because Oilwell is a major contributor to this
effort, it is also a major asset of U.S. Steel.

The tests will be administered to two
athletes selected at random from each
team in every game played and to any
athlete whose performance seems unusu-
ally good. In individual events, the first
four finishers will be tested, as will two
or three competitors chosen at random
Within an hour after the event, the ath-
lete will be sent to a testing site where
at least 50 milliliters (less than 2 02.) of
urine will be collected. The sample will
be sent to the laboratory in two bottles:
one will be stored in a sealed box in a re-
frigerator; the other specimen will be
analyzed immediately. The urine will be
placed in the gas chromatograph, which
separates oul constituent elements one
by one. For example, amphetamines
come out in three minutes, narcotics and
steroids in about 20 minutes. Their pres-
ence is signaled by a “spike” in a pen-
graph tracing made by the machine. No
spike, no drugs.

Toward a Surreal Destiny
FIN-DE-SIECLE VIENNA: POLITICS AND CULTURE
by Carl E. Schorske
Knopf; 378 pages; illustrated; $15.95

hen Vienna was good it glittered,


and when it turned bad it phospho-
resced. This shimmer of decay, 80 years
later, still lights up the contemporary ter-
rain so pervasively that the city seems less
a historical place than a state of mind. TI3M
SUNBTIVS
BiUIIYS
Psychoanalysis was born there, as well as
atonal music, several schools of urban
planning and modern Zionism. Vienna
also spawned the brand of hooligan anti-
Semitism that was admired, studied and
perfected by an Austrian named Adolf
Hitler. The powerful impulses sent out
from turn-of-the-century Vienna have
made it difficult to imagine the place as
it actually was, to sense how and why peo-
ple converged there in ways that would
alter the world. In Fin-de-Siécle Vienna,
Historian Carl E. Schorske gives the city
back to itself. The book's seven related es-
| says carefully reconstruct a Vienna of
bricks and beliefs, a real place building to-
ward a surreal destiny.
Politics and culture intersect some-
where in all societies, but in 19th cen-
tury Vienna they positively embraced.
That alone made the city unusual. The
middle-class liberals who gained parlia-
mentary control in the 1860s were in-
genuously industrious and earnest. |

the demons tearing Vienna apart resided
deep within her defenders as well as her
enemies.
The father of psychoanalysis did more
than observe Vienna; he suffered it too.
Schorske argues that The Interpretation
of Dreams, written during the 1890s, was
in part Freud’s apologia to himself for
having failed in the public sphere; the
book was also his subtle, perhaps uncon-
scious revenge on a city that continued
to deny him the professorship he deserved.
In his dreams Freud first reduced all po-
litical activity to a struggle with the fa- |
ther and then conjured up a triumph over |
his own. He gave, Schorske writes, “his
fellow liberals an a-historical theory of
man and society that could make bear- |
able a political world spun out of orbit
and beyond control.”
Schorske’s choreography for the de-
scent from Vienna waltz to danse maca-
bre is masterly. To capture the city’s di-
versity and fragmentation, he has drawn
on art history, urban theory, literary crit-
icism, psychoanalysis and political sci-
ence. Given the specialization that reigns
in academe (Schorske teaches history at
Princeton), such breadth of learning is
