PROBLEM OF CITY CHILDREN
Their Transformation Depends Upon
Home Teachings and Associations

1.-The problem of a child in a great
city is great problem. In every year
in the slums of London, 100000 children
are born. By happy chances about
1000 may have a change for the better,
but the remaining ninety and nine must
face life in a bitter state, indeed"
Miss Matte Pounds of Indianapolis,
of the Christian church, gave the
above statements last evening in her
address at the First Christian church.
She stated in a vivid way the trials
and temptations the children of today
are subject to by necessity of their
surroundings. She said:
I'VE all love the children and have
unbounded faith in their future. Hope
sings forever at the cradle. Unless
their training is different, how shall
we hope the children of today will be
different from others whose future
seemed as bright.
Some years ago 1 saw a gala pro-
cession of children and I thought if the
people could but see those same chill
dren in quarter of century, the
city, then in holiday attire, would be
attired in sackcloth.
Il am not an alarmst. Those are
the things that are coming to pass.
1 recently read of a great painter who
saw and painted the head of a child
which was so beautiful he named it
Innocence. After many years he de-
cided to paint a companion and call it
Guilt. He looked and looked, but saw
no one repulsive enough, till one day
he saw criminal on trial for murder.
This man he painted, who, when the
criminal saw it, fell to the floor say
ing, that other one my mother kissed
What do you think God sees in the
heart Of the children in this and all
lands, who are being neglected by the
church of Christ? Formerly children
were brought up in the country, with
the flowers for companions by day and
the stars by night. In our day the
children are shut in by streets and
walls. The father leaves before the
children are up in the morning and re-
turns late at night. tired and worn
out. In many families there is virtual
ly no father; only provider is known.
In many cases the mothers time is
taken up by social demands and she
sees little more of her children than
the father. In this state of affairs,
where shall we look for the training
of these children?"

PASTOR GIVES CURE FOR SIN
Secret of SinIess Life Is Surrender of
Lower Forms for Higher

At the First Congregational church
last night Rev. VIM. Horace Day
preached the eighth sermon on the
teachings of Jesus. The special topic
was 1.-THE Cure for Sin" He took as
the text Matt. 1921. "And thou shalt
call his name Jesus for 1t is he that
shall save his people from their sins"
Jesus Christ came to seek and to
save the lost, to accomplish the cure of
sin. He wrought that cure by declaring
principle for living. He told his dis
bciples they must lose life for his sake If
they would find it, The secret of sin
less life is willingness to surrender low
er forms of life to have the higher. Cut
off hand to save the soul from stumb-
ling, If need be. This required will
ingness to cruelty daily life.
"'If any man would follow me let
him take up his cross daily and follow
me- Jesus set the example by giving
not only death but first by giving life
as a ransom for many. His work of re-
conciling God and man commenced in
his daily life. His cure for sin culmin-
ated in his death on the cross. AS
Moses lifted up the serpent so must the
son of man be lifted up. His death
was as much part Of his Messiahs
task as the work of restoration was an
official duty of Elijah when he should
come On the Mount of Transfigura-
tion Moses and Elijah talked of the
decease he was about TO accomplish at
Jerusalem as the crowning of his work
christians have always exalted the
cross as the symbol of Jesus work in
the cure of sin, though they have new
er succeeded In sounding the depths OF
the mystery of the cross. For two
thousand years. almost, men have been
asking how did Jesus life and death
accomplish the cure of mans sin? He
used six symbols Of his death and the

PRELATE GOES
TO VISIT POPE
BISHOP C0NATY LEAVES FOR
ETERNAL CITY
WILL RETURN IN DECEMBER
Begins Journey to Rome to Report to
Sovereign PontlH, Carrying Ex-
pressIons and Offerings From
Priests and Lalty

After two years Of labors as the head
of the diocese of Monterey and Los
Angeles Rt. Rev. Bishop Conaty left
last evening on his journey to the
eternal City" to pay his first ad limina
visit to the sovereign pontiff, Pope Plus
x. Bishop Conaty will carry to the
successor of Peter the veneration and
homage of the priests and laity of the
diocese and the annual Peters Pence
Offering of the diocese.
About two years ago Bishop Conaty
came to Los Angeles stranger with
the exception of those who knew of his
work at the Catholic university at
Washington. He came in an unosten-
tatious manner and in his installation
sermon won the confidence Of all by his
utterances.
At that time he said he would ask
no priest to go where he would not
himself lead the way This has been
exemplified many times by this stall
wart prelate of the Roman church. In
fact, he has accomplished many tasks
that he would not assign to his priests
and colaborers.
During his residence in Los Angeles
he has greatly enlarged the work of
the diocese and is known throughout
the country for his educational ideas.
He has established parishes, built
churches, converts and cared for the
poor and needy and orphans all in the
same fatherly and kindly way in which
it is his delight to do unto the least
of these"
Bishop Conaty has not only won the
veneration and esteem of Catholics, but
of those mot of the fold" Protest
ants and Catholics alike have found in
him a man of strength and Christian
integrity which has been an inspira-
tion to all, regardless of creed lines.
The final Godspeed was said last
evening as the train was leaving with
words of renewed work by the bishop
on his return before the Christmas holi-
days The bishop will visit Barcelona,
Spain, where he had arranged to meet
Bishop Mora, who passed away a few
weeks ago. The bishop will, however,
visit Father Adam, former vicar gen
eral of this diocese, at that place. He
expects to meet Mr. and Mrs. w. E.
Hampton, Mr.. and Mrs. ]. G. Kays
and Mrs. Childs, who will journey to
Rome.
Bishop Conaty expects to be in Rome
about the first of November, where he
will remain three or four weeks. He
will be accompanied by Rev. j. ].
Clifford, S. T. L., pastor of the Church
of st. Thomas the Apostle of Los An
geles.

GOSPEL OF THE SECOND MILE
Cleveland Minister Says Service to
God Must Be Unlimited

1.-The Gospel of the Second Mile" was
the topic of Rev. w. H. Cornett of
Cleveland, o., yesterday morning at the
First Presbyterian church. Rev. Mr..
Cornett took for his text Matthew 5:41,
"Whosoever shall compel thee to go a
mile, go with him twain" He said in
part:
"These are the words of another age,
the language of a day that is gone. 1t
is voice with which we are unac-
quained. Yet, however ancient this
form of speech and foreign the custom
referred to the principle involved is
eternal, the truth revealed is undying.
This command was never so necessary
to be obeyed as now.
ITO compel man to go mile out
of his way would not be tolerated to-
day, yet it was customary twenty CEN
turies ago. The royal dispatch bearer
of ancient Persia, when he became ex-
hausted, compelled the first man he
met to act as courier in forwarding the
imperial edict. 1t was to ancient GUS
toms that Christ referred when he ut
tered these words, meaning that rather
than resist authority go twice the dis
tance.
that in the work of his kingdom, in the
service of humanity, we are not to do
Just that which we are compelled to,
but rather twice as much We are to
serve under compulsion, but in the
spirit of freedom. Our service is not
to be question of duty, but of delight;
not law, but love; not oppression, but
opportunity; not outward convention,
but inward conviction; not conduct of
morality without love in it; not that
righteousness which will do just enough
to avoid censure and win the approba-
ton Of the world and not one whit more.
All that is sham religion, simply going
the mile we must.
Christ says most emphatically that
unless our righteousness exceeds that
of the scribes and pharsees; unless it
is inspired by a spirit which sets no
limits, not even seventy times seven,
we shall in nowise enter the kingdom
of heaven, or what is more fundamen-
tal 1t has not entered into us. To be
acceptable to Christ, ones service must
be unlimited in its freedom, unre-
stricted in it's spontaneity, unhampered
in its willingness and unlimited in it's
gladness."
