SOCIAL PURITY"
Subject Of Discussion by Bishop Mcvlckar sn1
Others at Bell ST. Chapel.

Bishop Coadjutor McVickar OF the
Protestant Episcopal diocese OF Rhode
Island spoke upon Social Purity" at
the Bell street chapel last evening.
Bishop McVickar said in substance that
the evil of impurity Is everywhere. All
honor 20 those at the head OF reforma-
tories and societies for the building up
OF characters that have been wrecked.
But let us go back OF those. Prevention
Is best. Where shall we begin? j stand
al the coor OF the most respectable
families and remind YOU that homes
are invaded in the most strange and
awful ways Those schools 10 which
YOU send your children are not free
from danger.
But do you want to guard those chill
dren of your love? The surest certainty
that you viii attain IL lis by instruction.
The mysteries of life are i'm your hands,
fathers and mothers. with tact and dis
cretion To your children. they Will be
the means Of the loftiest instruction.
Let not the fire OF impurity take the
place of the name which IL divine and
which you may kindle. Those children
will learn at some time the same
truths. distorted, poisoned. Let them be
instructed at home. There is enough
legislation on the statute books to pu-
rify the city II there Is enough public
sentiment behind IT, IL isn't pleasant
work. Shall you and |. who call our
selves Christians. hesitate to try and
rescue the human life which should be
occupied by the living Christ? Surely
not. 1 earnestly beseech you 20 carry on
this work for social purity. and you will
be blessed as well as those you help TO
a better life.
