on the street is quickly stopped now
by public c,amor and the hand of
the law. But there are parts of the
United States where there is no law
protecting the children, where there
is no public sentiment protecting the
children and where the children are
sold into slavery at so early an age
that they are not fully aware of the
wrongs when they suffer.
Whatever method is to be employ
ed to put an end to child slavery,
whether by a campaign of education
showing parents the folly as well as
the cruelty of their exploration of the
children or by a national law, or by
a boycott on goods made by child

A MERCY SUNDAY

The American Humane association
mas issued an appeal to all churches
to set apart one Sunday during the
month of April each year for preach
ing directed especially to awakening
sympathy for children and dumb ami
mails, for thos who cannot nelp
themselves.
There are already many Sundays
set apart for special objects. There
is flower Sunday, home mission
Sunday and so on. Protestant
churches, while getting away from
the calendar of the Christian year as
observed in Catholic churches, snow
signs OF falling into Journalism of
their own in assigning different Sun
days to special observances. SO far
as known there is no objection on the
part of churches TO this assignment
of days, and the tendency SENS to be
growing stronger. II will be logic
al conclusion to find in Protestant
churches few years from now either
hard and fast distribution of par
ticular topics to particular days
throughout the year or a reaction to-
ward perfect freedom.
In the meantime II topic is lack

the Humane association is a good
one. Cruelty to animals and cruelty
to children have not yet been driven
