Settlement has write up and is illus.
tratod in the Christian Herald and
Signs of Our Times. 1t is characterized
as zone Of the most active insti-
tutionH," in that city, as ono might
suppose from its being located in
lIell's Kitchen" ABOVE the brown
stona Roman arch OF the doorway are
engraved the words. Come unto me
all ye that labor and are heavy laden,
and ] will give you rest. :" The writer
speaks of Mrs. Vikings study as
having an atmosphere OF culture aud
IA being ndUrned with curios from the
capitals Of Europe, fine engrayinga,
books, music, and all that goes to
make up u refined home. The account
says;
The studsnta are, in the main, col
lege graduates. In the class now at
the Settlement, are one graduate from
Texas one from Mt Holyole, teacher
from Wellesley, and ono who carries n
diploma from Syracuse University with
three years post graduate course
from Cornell. The course of study is
intended TO fit the student for tho best
practical service in Christian phi!an
thropy. The Carnegie Union and such
ladies' AS Mrs. Demorest, Mrs. Emile
ID. Martin, Mrs. st. John Galfney,
Mrs, Stanley and others have taken an
active interest in the work, and hold
meetings in the large and beautiful
chapel. The students visit each day
in the tenemunthousea and conduct
boys and girls' cisssss, and young
mems and young women'a meetings,
give kindly instructions to overworSed
mothers, and dispense food and clothing
to the needy. Their contact with the
slum jewellers has greatly improved the
general character Of the neighhorhood.
The work is 10 u densDly settled com
munity. In one block near TIM mission
house there are ct least ?, 900 souls. To
| every window you may count one
family and poverty. improvidence, and
too often drunkenness, reign within.
Along this line OF practical hennvo
| lence. Christian Work of May 18th,
contains the following announcement ::
with the beginning Of next June, an
| important movement in the interest of
temperance will be inaugurated by the
establishment OF Temperance Settle
ment House, by the ST. Pauls Ten
| perance Guild in this city. Tho idea
| Of the Settlement Hnuse in connection
with temperance work was suggested
some months ago by the members of
the guild. The inatter was approved
by the authorities, and a committee
was appointed to cast about and find,
IL possible, suitable building in the
vicinity OF the Paulist Fathers Church,
for the purpose. Such building was
found ON Sixty first street, bRtween
Columbus and Amsterdam avenues, the
price being 500, 600. The st. Paul's
Temperance Guild was organized on
Easter Sunday, 1873 an the SUCCESSOR
to the old Father Matthew Total Alb
stinepce and Benevolent Society, which
had fallen into decay. From the be.
ginning the guild has been pr0mi-
nent factor in the warfare against the
liquor interest in the vicinity OF st.
Paul's Church, and in the days Of the
old Excise Board it was a common
sight 10 see the priests before the
com I'm isBionsrs protesting against the
granting Of licenses, and go successful
were they that it became recognized
principle to grant mn one thereabouts Q
license. without notifying tina PRulisi
Fathers. The new Settlement House,
a five. story brown stone structure viii
contain the offices of the guild, anC
will be the centre for temperance worh
in the parish. 1t will have many
features of the club, and will be o
great social advantage to the member
of the guild.
