ITH the akill of a first-class showman the Merchants’ As- sociation throws upon the screen illustrations of the city’s greatness: We are the second city of the world—- and etill young. We are five big cities rolled into one. Manhattan has mere people than Chicago; Brooklyn is as big as Philadelphia; the Bronx out-measures Detroit; Queens is larger than Minneapolis end Richmond is equal to Salt Lake City. New York City produces twe billion’ dollars’ worth of manufactured goods annually, one-tenth of the entire amount made in the United States. We build eo much and so repidly thet eomething new goes up every fifty minutes. Every forty minutes e new business corporation is formed. New-born New Yorkers appear on the scene at the rate of one every six minutes. And credit! New York already owes more than five times as as Philadelphia, Chicago and Boston put together. Our mar of borrowing capacity jumped from $78,000,000 on January 1, 1911, to $159,000,000 six months later merely on the increased valu- ation of taxable renl estate. And the end is not even in eight. The size of the city is stupendous, its possfbilities of growth be- yond belief, its pride a thousand times justified. The very splendors of some of its features should make us hasten to put others beyond criticism: literally to leave no stone unturned to make our pave- ments the best instead of the worst of any great modern capital; to organize a public cab system that shell offer to all citizens and to all visitors cheap convenience instead of forbidding extortion; to reacne our streets and parks from the effects of bad judgment, encroachment and neglect. Can we not, in public service and comfort, become the first city of the world? IS SOUL-CARE OUT OF DATE? HE minister of @ Jarge church in Manhattan prepares a red- hot Bull Moose sermon for the Sunday before election. He ‘has announced, not to say advertised it; his congregation expect it. This disoourve is full of harsh hits at the present Adminis- tration and its head. Half an hour before church time the minister gets word by telephone that the President of the United States will ovoupy @ pew thet morning in his church. What is the preacher to! de? He has no other sermon on hand. Is he to disappoint his ex- | pestant hearers with ertemporary and harmless commonplace, theroby laying himeelf open to the charge of cowardice, or is he to fire his original peppery remarka\from the pulpit and let the distinguishod visitor stand them as he may? The young minister in question chose the latter plan. It was plainly a dilemma. Did he choose the best way out? ‘The real question is rather: What business has a minister of the Gospel with such a dilemms et all? So far as we know it hes not been established thet to be helpful and uplifting the pulpit muet | teanspose campaign argument and party politics into the supposedly sacred and soul-stimulating hours of the seventh day. Nor does the average congregation, made up of people of various political complex- fom, care to Meten during the quiet hours of a Sunday morning in chareh to only slightly eubdued variations of the noisy partisan ora- tory they have heard during the six days of a buey campaign week. Has the care of souls become old-fashioned and obsolete, or does a fadh of the limelight render some ministers too light-headed to ap- preciate the real dignity of their jobs?
