BY WILLIAM GRIFFITH.

~ 8 the acknowledged head OF the
4 Protestant Episcopal Church in
this country, and as a foremost
authority on the giant problems
Of capital and labor-with their
uses and many abuses-as well as the
even more absorbing questions Of mar
riage and divorce, as dominated by
the almighty dollar-a problem. recent
ly declared by President Charles Cuth-
bert Hall OF the Union Theological
Seminary Of New York to be vital
factor IN the alarming deterioration of
the moral standard Of American life
Bishop Henry Goldman Potter, on the
eve OF his annual vacation abroad. de-
.clared, IN a remarkable interview. that
the American people in their love Of
display and Iuxuries, coupled with the
national disposition to make life more
ornate and less rugged than the laws
Of health demand, were rapidly paving
the way for national dishonor.
Rugged I'm Mind and Body.

and bearing his sixty-eight years as
lightly as a man in the prime of life.
his warning and admonition have be-
hind them the force Of one of the most
powerful personalities in this country.
Bishop Potter was seen in his hand
some home at Eighty-ninth street and
Riverside Drive, into which he moved
some months ago, when he married the
charming and wealthy widow OF the
late Alfred Corning Clark Seated in
his bock-lined study overlooking the
Hudson and the Palisades and sur
rounded by testimonials Of his labors
in many fields, the distinguished
churchman sounded his warning to
America in clarion tones
Skillfully as a surgeon with mental
and moral scalpel he dissected the body
polite OF both this city and country,
looping off a limb here and applying
an advisory pOultice there, as he took
up consecutively the following vital
and timely questions:
is the moral and standard Of Ameri-
can life deteriorating?
Is divorce growing so prevalent as to
be a dangerous -enace TO the welfare
OF the nation?
is marriage for money a minor or
major evil in American life?
VIII women ever be desirable factors

shoulder-to-shoulder competition with
men, robbing womanhood Of its great
est charm and sacredness?
Is there really any danger of racial
suicide in this country? If so, what
are the primary causes?
Are there any seeds of revolution in
the war between capital and labor and
when will the harvest be reaped?
And is immense wealth a curse or a
blessing?
That Bishop Potter is perhaps better
able to answer these vital questions
wisely and impartiaHy than any other
man in American life may be inferred
not only from his scholarly equipment,
but from his wide experience extending
over forty years as rector of Grace
Church in this city, as Bishop of New
York, as head Of a great labor arbitra-
ton committee and as d profound stu
dent Of the great social and political
questions of the day Perhaps his most
enduring monument is the Cathedral
Of st. John the Divine, now building
IN this city. Its vastness may be con-
Jectured in that the huge pile on Wash
ington Heights will not be completed
for another generation.
Bishop Potter's Career.
Bishop Potter was born in Schenec-
tady in 1886. His father was then
president Of Union College and later
became Bishop Of Pennsylvania Henry
c. Potter studied at the Episcopal
Academy at Philadelphia until Ill
health drove him into commercial life.
This proving incompatible with his
temperament, the future prelate pre-
pared for his life work at a Virginia
theological institution. His first i'm
portant call was to Trinity Parish in
Boston. where the forcefulness of his
sermons and his tremendous mental
ability soon earned him promotion.
This came in his transfer to the me-
tropolis where in 1883 he was made
Bishop Coadjutor of New York. Upon
the death of his uncle, Bishop Hora-
ton Potter. four years later, he was
vested with full episcopal honors.
Bishop Potter has achieved promi-
nence not only in the prelacy and in
literature but also in the great move
ments for the betterment of the social
conditions of the people. He is a keen
observer and commentor upon current
events. Soon after his ordination he
married Miss Eliza r. Jacob, who died

what can come to such home or fam
lily save mutual recrimination and per-

in a household where mutual conf

traits that inspire respect and kindle
affection are equally and utterly want
ing?
Where shall we look for corrective?
I answer in higher ideal of the true
wealth and welfare of the nation. Moth
ing in our day covers so many faults
as money. Neither the Joy of birth nor
the tragedy Of death are separate from
a query as to how much shall be in

Dairymen in Kentucky Use

Report Made to the Gov

MUCH wATERED MILK
MUCH
WATERED
MILK

Lexington, KY, Jan. 10. The Pure
Food Department of the United States
experiment station, at State College,
has just completed its report on the
purity of the milk supply Of the State.
Il. NJ. Allen, who as a representative
of the Pure Food Congress, conducted
the investigation, states that in every
city in the State outside Of Louisville
there are one or two dairymen who
sell watered milk or put aptiseptics in
it. Their names have been presented
to the state authorities for prosecution
under the pure food law.
The report shows that in Paducsh
there are two dairy men using anti.
septics and one selling watered milk
IN Bowling Green, one selling milk
containing formaldehyde; in George
town one selling milk containing boric
acid and one selling his milk watered
in greensboro, one dairyman was
found and in Henderson two who use
formaldehyde one sells wAtered milk
In Ashland. In Covington, Newport
and Louisville. the instances wher Q
the milk was watered are numerous,
especially among the samples collect
ell from retail dealers, and investiga.
ton shows that the milk was watered
by the dealer and not by the dairy
man.
In these cities there are said in the
report to be numerous grocery stores
where the poorer classes OF people are
supplied with few cents worth of
milk at time for their babies, and in
almost each instance the milk is sold
from rusty, unwashed cans and half
wstered. Only one case OF wstered
milk was found in this city, and the
general per oentage here for richness
of the product was remarkably good.
Prof NJ. A. Scovell states that the
use of sntiseptios has decreased to n
large degree since the enactment Of
the state pure food law. The investi-
CATION will be conducted further to
ascertain the sanitary conditions of all
the diaries in the State, the kind Of
feed used and the methods employed
by the dsirymen with a view of help
ing them to produce better milk and
butter for the consumption OF the
people Of Kentucky.
