THE VIRTUE OF FAITH.
Rev. X. A. MiIIer's Sermon at the
Christian Church.


Rev. A. r. Miller, pastor of the Chris
tian Church, Bolton street, dwelt with
interest and effect in his sermon yes
terday morning upon Faith and its re-
lation to the upbuilding and strength
ening of Christian character. The SER
mon was delivered in Mr.. Miller's tell
ing and eloquent way. and was heard
by a large congregation.
Opening with a reference to the eff
fects of the observance of law, Mr.
Miller said il is necessary for the good
citizen to obey the laws of the state
and the Christian the laws of God
These divine laws cannot be changed
nor improved upon, he said. and once
there is departure from them with the
purpose of Improvement he said his
faith in them failed. To further illus
trate this argument the speaker re-
ferred to the mechanic building an
engine calculated to develop speed
after plans were submitted to follow,
and what a departure from these plans
to conform to the workmen's idea
meant. What a responsibility ii was,
and what the ultimate effect would
probably be. 1t is thus. he said, with
efforts to in any way vary from Gods
plan for Christians to follow. The
necessity for faith was elaborated upon
with force and effect.
The Savannah morning news., 1903-04-06

A second address on the work of the
ETittentOn Homes was made by Mrs
Kate W. Barrett, national president OF
abe Florence Cr1ttenton Mission Homes
in Wesley Monumental Church last
night. 1t was a plea for the support
of the work, and the arguments for
it were based on the ground that res
cue work is not only the duty that
Christians owe to the teachings of their
faith, but is duty that all men and
women as citizens owe to the COM
munity.
The lecture was heard by a much
larger audience than was present at the
first lecture, Friday night. and at the
conclusion of the address a collection
was made for the benefit of the local
mission home with very satisfactory re-
suits
Mrs. Barrett was introduced to the
gathering by Mr. w B. Stubbs. In the
course of his preliminary remarks Mr.
Stubs referred to Oglethorpe avenue,
and said that its two ends represented
the two extremes of Christian civiliza-
tioi' the DIOlHtlS OF the last SlQe De
ing the lowest and the orphan home at
the west the highest
The address made by Mrs. Barrett
was a strong one and she gave many
interesting statistics to show how
necessary for the welfare of a COM
munity as well as for the girls them
selves, is the work of missions Every
one, she said, both men and women
of every class should take an interest
in rescue work because nobody is so
securely placed by wealth or social po-
stticn that sooner or later may not
have to face a question connected with
the social evil.
One of the troubles encountered in
trying to help these fallen women,
Mrs Barrett stated, is that both good
men and bad men, good women and
bad women conspre to keep them
down once they have fallen; the bad
men and women for their own pur-
poses and the good men and women,
unknowingly may be. through preju-
dice.
IF one inquire into the lives of
these girls. the speaker continued,
zone will find that often the most de-

FOR FALLEN WOMEN
STRONG PLEA BY MRS. BARRETT

graded of them has taken the first
step in sin through circumstances that
entities them more to pity than TO
! blame
In Greater New York, Mrs. Barrett
stated there are by a recent census,
/ 100000 fallen women and of these 80
| per cent. are living a life of sin, be-
cause unable to earn an honest living,
! their salaries being so small that they
! hardly suffice to keep body and soul
together.
Another fact that the speaker laid
particular stress on is that of the in
mates of all the Crittenton homes, at
least two-thirds had church affiliations
before their fall. The church had
the first chance" said Mrs. Barrett,
and it's no wonder that people carp at
the church when it is shown that it
could hold but barely one-third.
The church is not altogether to
blame however, for the modern home
life is too lax; parents depend on the
church and Sunday-school to teach
what should be taught and impress
at home, and this is a mistake, for
some of these home lessons are out of
the province of the church"
A fact deplored by the speaker and
one that she considers most alarming,
is that the average age of girls now
living a life of sin is five years less
than was that of the same class OF
women no longer than ten years ago.
This she attributed to, the increased
number of girls who leave home TO
work while quite young, and who
through inexperience or their necessi-
ties are led astray.
Another evil in every day life, Mrs
Barrett declared to be the custom of
placing men in superior positions to
women, and of giving these men the
power to advance the women as they
see fit. Il don't mean to question the
honesty of the men," Mrs. Barrett
said, but ! do say that such an ar
rangement offers temptations. Women
should be placed in charge of women.
Without wishing to be sensational, l
will say that any one who has lived
in Washington has seen the wisdom of
this suggestion"
Discussing the treatment that women
of the street receive from the police
authorities. she said she was glad that
the Savannah authorities have taken
the stand they have, which was shown
in their sending to the Crittenton Home
the last three girls arrested. This aft
ernoon, in Wesley Monumental Church,
at 4:30 o'clock, Mrs. Barrett will de-
liver talk to mothers.

CASINO PATRONS FACED
CHILLING BLASTS.
Large Crowd Heard Excellent Con-
cert at Resort.

cert at Resort.
Despite the chilling blasts that
caused the dust to fly, and those
with straw hats and ow-quartered
shoes to look somewhat uncomfort-
able, quite a large crowd visited the
Casino yesterday afternoon and en-
joyed an excellent concert by the First
Regiment Band
1t was rather cold on the east side
of the Casino and the band stand
could not be used. The band did
march bravely to the stand, played
Dixie" and then did "hot-foot" to
the inside of the building, where the
programme, given in the Morning
News, was carried out. The several
hundred people who went to the re-
sort clustered on the west side of the
building where they could get sun
bath, and at the same time listen to
the band" The board walk over the
river was deserted, and no one cared
to patronize the naphtha launches.
Still the crowd was much larger
than Manager Kidder expected when
he aWoke in the morning and found
frosty weather. There was an album
dance of cars, however, and the crowd
was we'll handled by Superintendent
of Transportation Oakley. Although
the summer season does not open UNI
til May the resorts are very well
patronized in April and the first
Sunday would probably have been a
record breaker, but for the fact that
mercury suddenly got ashamed of it
self and made a feeble effort to hide
itself in the bulb. 1t is expected that
the weather will moderate now and
that next Sunday there will be a large
turnout of pleasure seekers.
Quite a number of people visited
Isle of Hope, although the season at
that resort has not opened A NJ.
Barbee's new pavilion will be ready
early in May and the season at Isle of
Hope promises to be a record breaker.
The regular vaudeville season at the
Casino will not begin until some time
next month and Tybee will make her
summer bow at about the same time
There is scarcely anything going on
at the resorts this month"; but with
good weather they will all receive
some attention every Sunday until
the season regularly opens.
