Several months ago. during visit
to Augusta, Bishop Gambler made the
striking statment that there are
more Mormon elders at work in Geor-

terrain or Episcopal churches. Reports
from Tennessee and other Southern
States have shown that the Mormons
are as active there as in Georgia. But
the MormonS are not combining them

active in New England, and, according

woMAN's MORAL WEAKNESS. .

'Is woman a menace to civilization ?"
The Rev. Henry Frank, after asking this
question seriously in a lecture delivered
before the Brooklyn Philosophical Asso-
citation proceeded tic answer ii in the af-
firmative.
Mr. Frank spoke of "woman's moral
weakness as if it were fact. He said:
THE records of our divorce courts
show how indulgent is the best society
toward the frailties of women. Why are
these women exempt from the penalties
paid by the unfortunates in Baxter
street? Why should not there be the
same standard of morals for Hester
street and Fifth avenue? 1t is only in
our sc-called high society that women
after being sent through the divorce
court remarry and are received again in
the same circles"
Why does the Rev. Henry Frank hold
women responsible for these things
What have they to do with the passing OF
ubiquitous laws, or the differences in the
morals of Baxter street and Filth
avenue? In what direction do they show
tenth part. or hundredth part, of the
moral weakness of man?
1t is the old cowardly cry of Adam ii.
for the woman"
We can assure the Rev. Henry Frank
that If the wheels of civilization shall be
hampered by no greater load than that
OK wCmankind, the machine will run
smoothly through all time.
Instead of being menace, they arc
the very bulwarks of civilization. The
few who figure unfavorably in the daily
news either of Hester street or of Fifth
avenue are as drop in the sea to tho
millions upon millions OF good wives anC
mothers, who teach their boys to grow u
10 be good men. and may be minister's
Therefore, it smacks something of in
gratitude when one CT these ministra
turns about and berates womankind aa
Il menace to civilization" EXCEPTING
