The Need Of the People.

By ELLA Wheeler W1lcox.)
Oh We men who prate of college.
4 And of books MS doors to hope, 4
Go and gain the living knowledge
Where the toiling people grops.
Like the plants in shadowy places.
They are needing sun to bloom
They are hungering for life's graces,
They are wanting light and room.
Give them something more of pleasure
Than ten million dollar tones;
Give them work and give them leisure,
Give them clubs and give them hoires.
Open wide the door of beauty
And invite the people in
And you'll find the paths of duty
Better filled than paths OF sin.
Oh, ] cannot sit debating
On the issues of a creed.
With the mighty work that's waiting
And the worlds tremendous need,
And the cold and costly steeple
Brings no pennies from my purse, 1
While the people, people. people
Ciroan beneath oppression's curse.
While the tenements are reeking
With the striving, toiling poor.
DO not send your churchmen seeking
EIcp for heathens to my door
Let them go whcre SIN cal ouao''
Or where scething sweatshops STAND;
Let them see the slaughter houses
or the children of our land.
True reform has one. beginning
The right hand Of brotherhood;
Would Won help men out Of SHINING!
Would you lead them into good!
Would you teach that Christ nus risen !
Prove it by your deeds OF WORTH
If YOU want to close the prison.
Beautify the homes Of EARN.

Are yet a master light of all our seeing;
Uphold us--chersh--and have power to make
