REMEMBER THE UNFORTUNATE.

Fl UNDREDS Of people in Wilmington at
present find conditions Of life just little
harder There has been a set back in industry
temporary only, it is to be hoped but in a city
like Wilmington, which depends so much upon
its mills and factories, any check in production
throws many out of work. A large mass of our
people save but little. and many of them do not
save at all. Even in what we call the best Of
good times" wages are not too high for these
people They do not get more than their share
< Of the wealth they produce For any ialtering in
Introduction, any let up in work. they are not re-
~iponsible. OF Wall street, the manipuatons of
fhnanciers, the operations of the trusts and the
like, they have no direct knowledge They do not
invest in stocks and bonds because they have
nothing to invest. All they know directly is that
when trouble comes, when things go wrong,
they are the first to feel the i'll effects. Their
labor is their capital an dit is always ready for
employment 1t is not boarded. 1t does not be-
come stringent. 1t is at the beck and call OF capi-
tal "'H'
In any center Of large population unfortunately
there are numbers of these so-caled real needy
people-the proletariat--who are confronted with
the grim problems of earning living of getting
food, and clothing and shelter To them Christ

with fair or large share Of this worlds goods
can do much to make these Christmas times
real blessing to their more unfortunate fellows.
They can send word of cheer a token.
of substantial kindness that will be instrumental
in making Christmas a day full Of meaning, of
hope and even happiness.
Wilmington has many workers looking after
the unfortunates. We have our active charitable
organizations in all parts OF the city. Demands
will be made upon them this year that will tax
their resources, and it is, therefore, to be hoped
that their efforts will be seconded by those who
can give of their own bounty and thereby enjoy
the recompense of worthy acts.
Consider the submerged class in your Christ

Walker also referred to the National
Grange meetings, which he attended.
Secretary .Webb's Report
In his report Secretary Webb said in
part:
"On September 3, 1907, there were
thirty oranges in Delaware if we count
all that have reported since the last
meeting Of the State Grange These
thirty oranges lsave a total membership
of 1884, am increase of 1SS members
during the year. While some oranges
have lost membership and others have
gained, part Of this increase is due
to the organization Of a new grange.
Roxana, No. AZ, which now has a mem-
bership Of 81. The amount of dues. re-
ceived during the year is S74O1O, an
increase Of $74.55 over the previous
year. OF the thirty oranges in the
State, ten are in New Castle county.
with a membership of SCI, an average
OF 56 1-5 per grange; eight Of them
are in Kent county. with a membership
OF 677, or S4 SIS per grange; twelve
are in Sussex county, with member
ship of 445, or 33 per grange"

SOME PASSAGES IN THE MESSAGE.

c EVERAI. passages in the Presidents mes
~ sage are unlikely to win him commentator
among those who oppose his IDEAS but are never
theless important and sure to meet with the ap-
proval of the masses. For instance the Presi-
dent stands firmly by the eight-hour law which
has the endorsement of the Federation Of Labor
The employment of child labor, an evil that can
be remedied only by legislation Of the strictest
kind, is denounced. The difficulty about child
labor is that humane employers are forced 10 eN-
plot children so long as their competitors are
privileged to so do; otherwise the EMPLOYERS
naturally opposed to working children would fall
behind in. the competitive race for trade Child
labor can be eliminated only by strong law,
rigidly enforced.
The attention of Congress in the message is
called 10 the abuses of the injunction as used bv
some courts This method of legal procedure may
be necessary at times, but the President doubts
whether it is always wisely employed Govern
ment by injunction" is government by the courts
and not by the people. The courts, by an unwise
use OF the injunction process, may become tyran-
meal
The President also favors compulsory investi-
CATION Of labor troubles, with a view of lessening
the conflicts between labor and capital
The President retains his lively interest in mat
ters which affect the masses Of the working
population.

TO a LOST FRIENDSHIP
BY William John Hogan.


] found a cleaning diamond.
And / held it to the light,
To watch its brilliant scintillating glow.
The colors Of the rainbow
Pictured purity and truth,
They teia ssae what longed for, wished
to know.
The red it spoke Of anger
And the green unfolded grief
While the baleful orange flashes said:
Bewarel
But the purpie sign of justice
Bade me hope that Love and Truth
Would smile upon me kindly, oh. so
fair.
How vain are we, poor mortals,
While our hopes arise and fall;
Swiftly changing like the diamonds fit
full gleams;
Only waking to the knowledge
That oftumes comes too late,
Realizing that our hopes have been but
dreams.
Has the diamond lost its lustre?
or have my eyes grown dim2
As I seek its brilliant CLEANS in fading
light.
The blue OF truth has vanished,
Like the purple. red and green.
But the balefu1 orange glare, It strl
shines bright.
