Church ano Labor.
Local Presbyterian Ministers Have Affiliated With Central Labor
Union and Exchanged Delegates-A New Movement
in Which This Denomination Is
Taking the Lead

A great deal of interest has been evil
denced In religious circles over the move
ment In the Presbyterian Church to get in
closer touch with the workingman. It is
averred in some quarters that the laborng
classes, in q number of instances, harbor q
notion that the church Is not for the lowly
but the well-to-do and wealthy, and for this
and other reasons the Presbyterian Church
IN this country as body has taken an ad-
vanced step IN regard to nMnistering to the
man who earns his bread by the sweat of
his brow. Fraternai delegates appointed from
the membership of the Presbyterian Minis
ters' Association OF the presbytery of Wash
ington now sit in the weekly meetings OF
the Central Labor Union of this city, and
likewise delegates from the labor body con-
gregate about the council board OF the min
listers association, which holds meetings on
the second and fourth Mondays of every
month. Though the movement Is, vet In its
embryo 1t is thought to have already JUS
tilted itself. and for the future great things
are expected.
The two delegates from the PRESBYTERIAN
ministers Association are Rev w. d. Skell-
anger pastor of the Sixth Street Presby-
terrain Church. and Rev. Charles Alvin
smith, minister at Peck Memorial Chapel
pennsylvania avenue. 2Sth and NJ streets
Inc latter is minister of a chapel whose,
membership is composed wholly OF working
men. He endeavors to show men that the
church's chief business is to teach them how
to live.

Unfortunately" says DR. Smith, many
workingmen have thought of 1t as a thing
which has to do only with sickness death
ana cemeteries, whereas Christianity be-
heves in brighter homes better schools,
cleaner government. and all that makes for
the physical, mental and spiritual uplfft of
men and women and children. Therefore at
the Peck Memorial Chapel are mems club
rooms, gymnasium, cooking school, short
hand classes, children's dispensary. sewing
school, as Well as all the regular and benefi-
cent services of preaching Bible teaching
and training of all who so desire
10 the end that the church and the
Worklngman may be brought together in fell
loWship and any false anita gonism between
tnein brushed aside, as well as find common
ground Tor cooperation along many lines
the PRESBYTERIAN Church of the whole coun-
try has established a special department
of work and investigation
Here IN Washington city the Presbyte-
Ran Ministers Association and the Central
Labor Union have fallen in line with the
movement by an interchange Of delegates
in true spirit of fraternity Delegates
elected by the Central Labor Union for the
purpose attend and are members of the
Presbyterian Ministers Association as are
the delegates from the ministers association
by virtue of that fact delegates to the
union.
This system of fraternal delegates has
been in vogue month, even in which
short time much mutual good has been &C.
complished. Many workingmen believed
the church merely scheme to increase tho
population of heaven; that the sum of the
churchs teaching was Be good, get saved
and you will get to heaven whereas the
Ideal Christian not only tries to get other
people there, but also is trying to bring
something of heaven into this world
One Of the purposes of the ministerial
delegate is to place the church in its true
place with relation to the workingman: to
show that the church does not uphold any
present industrial system if 1t is wrong It
stands only for that much as is IN accord
ance with the principles of the Christ of
God which undoubtedly has for its foun-
datfon that all men shall deal righteously
one with another. The chief business of
Christianity is the development of charac-
ter, the kind Of character so essential to
the carrying forward to a successful con-
clusion any great social reform measure

can have an honest horse race you must
