PENSIONS FOR MOTHERS.
Results That Would Accrue From
 Proposition.

Proposition.
 Professor Charles Zuehlin of the University of Chicago offers in re- cent newspaper article the eye-open- ing suggestion of pensions for moth CTS, It is possible of course, that the Chicago sociologist has been mis- represented by a sensational reporter, as some of his colleagues, whose al- legged ideas have been featured in press dispatches, assert that they have been treated. But in this case the statement in question was published, not in an interview or report of class room remarks but in an article pur- porting to be 8 signed contribution, For the sake of Professor Zueblin's reputation the Settler hopes that he may be able to prove an alibi for this pension proposal is about the worst bit Of foolishness that has yet been at { tributed to Chicago professor. Here is what Professor zueblin is said to { have said, or written: Every mother, ] whether rich or poor should be pen- ! stoned equally, say $10 month for each child up to the third and de- crease in the amount up to the fifth child, when it should cease. In spite of the bonus some still would have x one or two children and others would E take chance on dozen.'
 Apparently the aim of the pension plan, as Professor zueblin conceives its working, is to improve the status of wives and mothers by guaranteeing them a measure of financial indepen- dence and economic security He T seems to imply that the maternal sub sidy would have no effect on the size # sof families, Now, while in certain bases the questioning of mothers would Fl doubtless have beneficial results, it seems clear that the general and per nanent effects on society at large .z must be debilitating and demoraliz- Ing. This is what would happen in he long run:
 1. The growth of population would De stimulated unduly by offering a premium on children. And this stim- E illus would operate most powerfully In the members of the poorest class s and the least desirable elements E he popuatlon'
 ,. The rate of wages would be de- sressed by this gratuitous addition tc Amily income The pauperi2ation f the English laboring population un- er the injudicious methods of poor elief in vogue in the early part ot be last century illustrates the inyio-
 ble effect to be apprehended from
 proposed policy.
 8, Foreign immigration woul1 be Acouraged in an undesirable way he pension scheme would dangle Q

 Id eastern Europe, which are all

 would be weakened by indiscrim-

The eight young men entitled to
the rights of deacons went forward
to the chancel rail and the beautiful
and impressive ordination ceremon-

siding elders assisting him. Few
church ceremonies are more beauti-

The regular preaching services
were then taken up.
WarrenNs Great Sermon.
Bishop Warren delivered one of
the grandest, most effective and at
the same time one of the sweetest
sermons ever heard in the city. His
theme was "The Humanness Of
Christ" His text was taken from
Hebrews, 2nd chapter, 18th verse,
as follows: Wherefore in all things
it behooved him to be made like unto
his brethren, that he might be mer-
ciful and faithful High Priest in
things pertaining to God, to make
reconciliation for the sins of the peo-
pie"
When the bishop had finished his
sermon surely there were none In
that large audience who were moi
convinced that when Jesus Christ
was on earth he was true brother
of men, human in sufferings, human
in his sympathies, yet withal the
gentlest, the kindest, the most per
feet of men. Incident after incident
from the life of Christ was brought
out in telling and convincing man
ner by the bishop, showing how hu
man Christ was while on earth. Some

Bishop Warren spoke for about SO
minutes. He held the undivided at
tention of the audience, and the in
fluences of that sermon Will live long
after Bishop Warren has left Grand
Junction. He made everybody in the
building hear him and yet his voice
was not strained, but ran as smooth
