Sometimes there are obstacles and the way

slant effort. We cannot expect to sit down
in idleness and have the goal come to us.
We must strively daily for the goal Of
Christian endeavor
"All external practices are of no avail
unless the spiritual life Is behind them. We
employ the outward signs of worship as a
means to quicken our spiritual life To run
the Christian course we must cast aside the
hampering weights. It Is not the sudden
burst of religious fervor that will win the
race, but Il must be the zeal of constant
endeavor. Let us in this LeBten season put
into practice little common sense and
business sense not only for ourselves. but
for God, that our lights may so shine that

Although fully cognizant of the punish

arrested on the charge of dlsposing Of
liquors on Sunday. The officers said the
saloon was doing rushing business and
was filled to overlooking with thirsty
mortals.
Chris Jensen, 414 North Fourteenth street,
was arrested about p. m. Sunday when
the officers found several men In the saloon
drinking. The proprietor asserted he was
only giving a goose dinner. There was not
a sign of a goose. although the officers
intimated that Jensen was the goose for
trying to keep open when they were on
duty, and he was taken to jail for the first
time in his life, so he said. Both pro-
prietors were released after giving bail
OF $500 each for their appearance in police

officer Waters. who has been star
member of the famous whisky brigade

mystery, but It is the theory of members
of the family that Mr.. RasRorshek was
mistaken by the thugs for another man.
who lives In the same block, and who
wears several valuable diamonds This
theory Is substantiated TO a certain degree
by the fact that the coat of Mr.. Rasgorshek
was torn roughly open. pulling or all the

indicated that traffic officials Of the Chi

give a hearing In Chicago Tuesday on the

understand It has been called of. Even If
it should be held. they will have no object
In going, as Omaha's position in the matter
has been upheld by the refusal of the rail-
roads to abolish the proportionals from
Omaha on grain from east Of the river.
The Missouri Pacific announced such abro-
cation Of proportionais early last week,
but a few days later withdrew its tariffs.

MEMORIAL FOR DIR. erLoHRrsr

Memorial services for Rev. Alexander
Gilchrist, ID. D., former pastor of the Cen
trail United Presbyterian church of
Omaha and late secretary of the Board of
Home Missions of the United Presbyterian
church, were held at the Central church
Sunday morning
Memorial resolutions were read by George
II. Gilmore. Copies will be sent to the
family of DIR. Gilchrist and to the church
publications,
John l., McCague spoke of "Dr. Gil
christ, the Preacher" He described him
as an energetic man. a friend of human
ity, a man possibly not of great eloquence,
but with a quality in his discourse. The
secret of his power in preaching was ear
nestness and simplicity. He was pc
culiarly gifted to reach the hearts of the
young, said Mr.. McCague, and even now
the young people of the church fire.
Quently refer to his sermons.
In speaking OF the man as a pastor
William Baird recalled the fact that when
DR.. Gilchrist was called to his Omaha
passionate he had offered to him a debt
burdened church. debt-burdened people
but a people with a great spiritual need
1t was the latter consideration which ap-
pealed to him and induced him to become
pastor of the Central church.
George w. Wallaees theme was 'Dr
Gilchrist. the Secretary"
1T was not surprising to us that h'
became secretary of the home board,

Wallace. and initiated the spread of th'
home mission work into foreign-speakinl
communities and among the poor whites
of the mountains of the south. He brought
eighteen new missions under the care o.
the board last year and withdrew thu

PLEA FOR CHILD LABOR BILL
Rev. L. o. Baird Advocates Legal Protec-
ton for Little Ones.
usoRowARFs YOUNG MINDS AND BODIES
ME Interests at washingtOn strive
60 Preteet Their Gold by Laws,
but Care Not for Coming
Citixens.

Rev. l. o. Baird at st. Mary's Avenue
Congregational church on Sunday morning
made a plea for the passage OF the child
labor bill and for the assumption of a
greater and a more personal responsibility
for the city's child population by the citi-
Eens and the churches.
Taking his text from Luke xvi, 9, the
words of Jesus, Make to yourselves
friends by means of money" DR.. Baird
spoke in part as follows:
This verse tells Jesus doctrine regard
ing wealth. Men in that day used their
money TO build churches and mausoleums
Just as they do today. Jesus recommended
that money be put into friends and not
into buildings.
Modern life has brought a great part
Of our population into cities, where friend
ship II the hardest plant TO grow. We
often do not know our nearest neighbors.
Everything tends TO press out friendship
This mode Of life is largely responsible for
the problem which confronts us today. the
problem of the labor of two millions of
little children in the factories and stores
Of this country.
For a long time work among the chill
dren has been carried on upon what I
might call the fishpole plan OF philanthropy
This is a plan which reaches over into the
dirty pool, takes the boy out of his sur
roundings and places him in good environ
ments. vast and good work has been
done by this means. Children have been
sent out from our cities into the pure, free
country and have grown into useful citi-
gems.
FfshpOIe Plan Not Adequate.
But this method alone Will not solve the
problem satisfactorily. II must be used in
conjunction with what 1 might call the
drainage plan OF philanthropy. The Juvenile
court of our city has this idea in mind. 1t
picks the boy out from his evil surround
ings In the streets or dens of evil and
throws him back into the home. But it
does not stop with that II continues and
tries to make his environment right in the
home
1T r an awful spectacle in the light of
civilization to see men and big interests
at Washington moving all obstacles and
spending millions to get bills passed that
shall protect their gold. But what interests
are there fighting to save these two million
little citizens7 In Germany the greatest
care is taken to educate one certain boy.
This Is done because he is to be the future
sovereign of the people. Our future SOW
ereigns are toiling at the age of 10 and IL
years In factories, stores and mines. They
are bending their little bodies and dwarfing
their minds and making weaklings. paupers
and wrecks of themselves for the sake OF
enriching some greedy man today.
ut is our responsibility to make friends
of these little future citizens and to use
our money as the Master has said It should
be used. to make friends"
