AN INTERESTING TRIP.

Wednesday, September 9. a party Of
ten, mostly members Of the Universalist
church in Woodlawn Park. under the
lead of Rev. F. w. Millar, the pastor,
took stroll among some of the light
centers in certain dark localities of
Chicago.
Hull House at 1874 So. Halstead St.
received the first attention. Here the
party we're introduced to Mrs. G. P.
Stetson. the Hull House chaperon. by
whose genial nature and inspiring words
we we're led by winding aisles through
the various rooms and departments OF
this wonderful as we'll as benign institu-
ton.
Although it is little more than five
years since Hull House was first opened,
it has become great center of power,
the influence of which is keenly felt not
only in the 10Th ward, but throughout
the city.
Hull-House is a social settlement,
copied somewhat after the university
Settlement" plan; but more for the pur-
pose of uplifting the lower classes not
only Intellectually, but morally and So
cially as we'll, by extending to them the
privileges of better society and associa-
tion-thus recognizing the equality of
all, whatever the accident of birth or
nationality may be.
Although this Settlement is yet young.
it's marvellous power for good is already
manifest in the numerous classes and
clubs it is maintaining in nearly all the
branches of education-the sciences,
languages and arts; as we'll as by inves-
tigation and discussion keeping in touch
with the much needed reforms of the
day.
This institution is in part self support
ing, but is largely aided by the business
men Of the city who realize its need and
appreciate it's influence.
We heartily commend it to the candid
consideration Of the public.
The Medical Mission and the Pacific
Garden Mission were also visited. The
former carries on medical dispensary
in connection with the Gospel service
held every evening. A very small sum
is charged for medical aid and service,
just enough to keep it free from the
idea Of pauper institution.
This mission is carried on by the Adj
ventists.
The Pacific Garden Mission is we'll.
known among the Christian workers of
the city as place for rescuing the fallen.
and helping the struggling along the up
ward way.
1t also furnishes to some extent cloth
ing free; and lodging and food at nomi-
nal prices; and depends upon the public
for it's support.
And last but not least, the Wcman's
Temple. or headquarters Of the W. @. T.
U. was sought, where all enjoyed an in
teresting interview with Mrs. Helen
Barker, one of the devoted workers and
able lecturers Of the Union.
Although the temperature of the day
was very oppressive, all enjoyed the trip
very much and took courage under the
inspiring influences Of fellow laborers
in these specially consecrated ways of
we'll doing. MARY A. STRAUB.
