F. ¥. Pierce, pastor of the Beo- ond Avenue Baptist Church, doesn’t have to affect cosmopolitanism as a pose —he has the genuine thing thrust upon him. Every week he enters intimately into the life of representetives from every nation of the globe, He has found work for hundreds of foreigners, he has instituted foreign services for twenty na- tlonalities, he has made medical and dental attention a function of the church, and through his efforts the Second Ave- nue Church has become the most re markable church in the world, Fifty years ago it was the centre of the old Knickerbocker aristocracy; now it fe im the centre of the most con- gested and polygict population in the country, Just to the east lies the Ghetto, where there are more Jews than in Jerusalem. More Yalians can be found in the immediate vicinity than in any city in Italy; and there are hosts of Hungarians, Poles, Greeks, Chinese and Japanese. In the most densely popu- lated district of London there are three hundred people to the acre. In this ward there are nine hundred people to the acre. It would be possible for 2,000 children under fourteen to come to the church from their homes without cross- ing a street.
