Silverman, the pastor, took for his theme Social
Inequality and Its Remedy" He said in part
To-day inequality destroys every attempt at genu-
Inc and universal Sociabiity. inequality is the bar

than do differences of nationality race or creed
inequality stiles the sweetest promptingS of the
soul, chlS the spontaneous warmth of love. and at
times creates discomfort and involves the world
in warfare and revolution. Inequality is the curse
OF mankind 1t gives invidious distinctness TO the
classification of men rich and poor capitalist
and laborer. and employer and employe. master and
servant. ruler and subject. How remedy this
evil is the burning question of the hour
