Their watchword was that of Commodore Vanderbii “The Public be damned.” They de- bauched the le-islature of our states, watered the stock, shot the innocent stockholders blind, and then they wonder why the public won't give them a_square ‘deal.

When Hughes was given ‘he task of investigating the big life insurance companies of New York city 1> found out that these great companies were eating up the money of the peoble, robbing them ris(' and left. They sent their agents out throughout. the country, making alluring promises, and then when the time of pavment came due, thev gave them but a small. per cent. of what really be longed to them. The story of child labor in this country is a terrible ene. Children were robbed of their child- hood, of their education. and when their freshness and. vigor were gome they were thrown on the scrap heap. Human life and happiness were of no account. Men were murderers of the best and noblest of human life. and all for the sake of the almightv dollar. T am here to say tonight that men- ey has been God: that humanity has counted for nought, that human life has been cheap. that facteries and mills have crushed and destroyed hu- man life uptil like a blind Sampsen they caught hold of the pillars of the temple of civilization and bid fair to destroy_both friend and foe in the downfall I am no prophet. T do not know what the-future boldb, but I know that there are szrave possibilities for de- struction: that there is enough dyna- mite in the present situation to blow into pieces unless we are serious and thoughtful and repentant. It isn't going to be handied by vitupera- tion upon the part of either business men or laboring men. I believe that we are big enough. under God. to solve this question. On every hang T_hear unions belabored. Is this anger? 1 wint to express as 1 know how, mv sym- pathy with the laborinz man, and the labor union. Personally in all personal matters, I have just as much sympas thy for one man as for another. The needs of one, the personal needs. are not confined to one class. There is no_class. But economically, I am more with labof than T am capital. This for the following rea- sens. Labor has been umder the heel of capital from time immemorial, and I am in faver of the under deg. My divine Lord always cast his in- fluence on their side, and since 1 am a follower of His, that’s 1 stand. Men of money have their troubies. No more difficult times for business have existed for decades than now. But vou are lacking in imagination if you ‘think your troubles are small compared with that of the ordinary la- borer. When we were in Jamestown we had a young lady workmg in our home. Her father was in one of the factories. He said. Mr. Purkiss, the sorrow of my life is that I ean't give my children a better chance in life. Two things | want to say about la- bor unions. A strike is their only weapon. A friend of mine had a 20 meeting followed by the reading of re- ports. The treasurer gave an excellent and gratifying report of the society’s finances. After adjeurnment the evening was given over to the entertainment com- mittee who did themselves proud with their several numbers which made up a wonderfu] program. ‘The parts in the different numbem were taken by the committee, Georg Amburn, Miss Bernice . Willey, M)ss Grace Stetsgn, Miss Lillian Crumb and Leslie Ward, assisted by Miss Gladys Mei Miss Mildred Fillmore, John Durnam and Thomas Farrell. The programme which was Living Motion Pictures, presented one thrill- ing scene after amother. Much af the talent was brought here under great difficulties and expense. The opening number was a drama entitled, Jealousy or The Course of True Love, in four reels: Miss Mil- dred Fillmore, heroine; Miss Grace Stetson, mother; George Amburn, sol- dier lover; John Durnam, the sailor William Doug- remd in a unique musical and_reci- ative number.

It consists of a mother and four talented daugh- ters, Miss Mildred Fillmore, singe Miss Gladys Meier, pianist; Miss Lil- lian Crumb. elocutionist: Miss Grace Stetson, drummer; Miss Bérnice W ey, ext was the variety musical re- vue, a set of wonderfully illustrated songs. Adding greatly to the effect were the costumes worn by the per- formers. The songs. illustrated were 'Till We Meet Again, Miss Mildred Fillmore and George Amburn; School Days, teacher, Bernice Willey, Miss Gladys Meier and Leslie War Alabama Lullaby. Miss Lillian Crum! The comedy. Calling Night or Watch Your Step, was given by the Mme. Annitte compan: Miss Lillian Crumb, the girl: John Durnam, the chair; George Amburn, the hatrack; Leslie Ward, the table. Willilam Douglas presided at the piano. Prof. How-I-Ttch, with his trained zylophone, was present ang gave the newest musical numbers. The profes- sor was Leslie Ward. At the close of the programme all were_invited to the dining room.

When la- ibor unions first started, they elected ! their representatives from their work- iers. The employers settled -with the unions in one way or another. and then tcok their first opportunity to get rid of those obposddus men who | represented labor unions. So in self- defense these- walking delegates were appointed. The labor unions are en top, and. like most men who have pewer they have abused it. And if they continue to abuse it, they are going to lose it, sooner or Igter. I do not know the detalis of the IW- licemen's strike in Baston. If they had wrongs, the city ought {o settle them. For certainly our cities should care-well for their employes. -School teachers and all public employes should not be under any obligation to strike. Wages ought to be liberal. But to my mind, the policemen’s strike in Boston was one of the most diabolical things in American history. Sworn to defend the peace, they leave their task. and attack those who take especial between the ordered and the Orderer, between effects and Him who created them. It was like looking through the large end of a telescope, instead of the small end. making God become more and more remote, the natural re- sult being, that as we are too human to pray to a dim, gave up praying. Then, thers is that philosophy of life that made God too near, beeapse of a eertain majesty of life and-a certain spirit that goes all oyer the universe.| Cw we llnur ourselves that we hm danger of making God & 20 speak to the Gi‘lnth: and l‘thllg apswers—we look God whose light is in- the stars, s—we are ll end of the es vhhb _are| If public sentiment had not run so high against them, a _sympathetic strike in Boston would have been call- ed that would have clomed every tory in Bosten and enviroms, n-d ul- ed to the comditions ef amarchy ready existing.

But still, persists the human wish to know when God knews us. and to this there are two approaches. First, the recognition that certain voices in our world are the voices of God, an assumption with which a man must start, if he is to have any growth of character in his life. These are voices speaking to us everyfday which come from God—some bi#f of caution, some appeal to rectitude, some little challenge to integrity. a subtle some- thing that asks us to be a little bet- ter than we are a lifting up of soul above vicissitude and submerging ex- periences—that's God!
