The Church,s Appeal to Labor.


The question of the worklngman's
relation to the church was taken up by
Rev. Charles Stelzle at the Markham
Memorial Mission, at Menard and Jul
liza streets. last evening, says tae St.
Louis GlobeDemocrat in recent is
sue. Mr.. Stelzle has devoted several
weeks to a careful investigation of the
possible objections against churchgo-
ing, which may be urged by the work
ingman in general. and last nights
address was the first in a series Of four
discourses which he proposes to give
on 1.-The Workingman and the
Church." His particular theme last
evening was why Some Workingmen
Do Not Attend Church" He began
his remarks thus:
1T is said that not more than per
cent of the workingmen of our large
cities are regular attendants at our
churches. Whether this statement be
true or not, we know that as our social
and industrial life becomes more in
tense, the gulf between the working
man and the church becomes wider
and deeper. In order to End out at
first hand just why workingmen do not
attend church, / recently sent out
about 200 letters to as many labor lead
ers in this and other cities, asking
them to give me the benefit of their
observations along this line. The an
swers received proved to me that work
ingmen are tremendously in earnest
about this matter. They offered no
apology. They gave no excuses. With
hardly an exception, they gave reasons
for their non-attendance upon church
services, and many of these answers
were Just. ! could not help feeling, as
/ read these answers, that working
men need a leader-one around whom
they could rally and under whose lead
ership they would win the respect and
admiration of the world. Labor today
has no leader. Samuel Gompers, Eu-
gene Debs. VIM. d. Mahon and many
others who might be mentioned are
leaders of a very limited number of l
workingmen. and even the declarations
and associations over which they pre-
side have a strong. minority who OPP
pose their leadership. And yet l do
not doubt their sincerity, but the fact
remains that they are not the leaders
of workingmen.
1.-THE question, Why can not the
church of Christ become the champion
of labor?' has suggested itself to many
earnest minds. The church was insti-
tuted by Jesus Christ, the carpenter,
and advocated by the twelve working
men apostles. The leaders of the
church In every age have come from

Stage and Church Alliance.

Nearly 100 actors, clergymen and lay
men have organized the Boston chap
ter of the Actors Church Alliance. 1t
already has 1923 members. twenty OF
them clergymen, and its object is de-
clared to be a common effort on the
part of stage folk and church people
to help one another and humanity.
The alliance is meant to include In
time all the artistic callings, reaching
especially every part of what some per-
sons know as bohemia.

Forest Reserves In Arizona.

The government has created some

regulation, with view to prevent
their spoliation and to preserve them
from fire. The principal lumber mills

In Chicago, this plan has been in

small way owing to the limited funds

The nearest approach to this idea In
New York Is the exchange Of beats be-
tween letter carriers. These transfers
are made between the men delivering
in the wealthy and attractive parts Of
town and those who have grown dis
spirited by their work In the slums and
the tenements. The plan has greatly
increased the letter carriers endurance
and health mental as well as physical.

TO exchange? Not permanently, OF
course, but long enough TO afford
wholesome bit of rest to both sets OF
children and both sets Of parents,
In Berlin Germany. where various
other good ideas are in operation, the
transfer OF children is already an estab-
lished system. City children are ex-
changed for country children, and vice
versa.
The children OF the city poor are usu-
ally fated to stay in the place where
they were born without any opportun-
ity for change into a country life,
Country babies are likewise confined by
their poverty to very small territory.
II Is to benefit these two classes that
the scheme Of transfer was arranged.
