REV. FAY EDDY
Speaks on Progress Made by Discon-
tent" ut Unity Hall.

Rev. Frank Fay Eddy spoke in Unity
hall yesterday on progress made by
discomfort, claiming that only in the
effort to overcome the Ills Of this world
has mankind moved forward. In his
conclusion the speaker said;
so 1t is that In our modern philoso-
ply OF life we recognize ourselves as
imperfect but growing beings, with
neither an Eden behind nor a heaven of
satisfied desire ahead. But II shows
us wherein there is gain in overcoming
as we accept the challenge of the im-
perfect and the incomplete. both with
out ourselves and within ourselves. 1t
gives Zest and purpose to live and illu-
inmates human history through all its
course. From the cave man to the civ
ili2ed men of TO-DAY, from man of today
TO the man of that tomorrow which
shall be nobler and saner than this age
of transition, so the steps of progress
have been and will be marked by vic
tories won by men who accepted the
challenge of the evil or imperfect and
went forth 70 war upon 1t.
But ethics Is after all fundamental.
The deepest phase OF this question is
expressed by Jesus and other great
teachers of religion. The mastery OF
self precedes the mastery of the world.
ventions. our republican Institutions to
the best advantage, because we seek
to use them selfishly and meanly. So
cial progress is always a step behind
ethical progress. To overcome evil with
good is the golden thought of social
progress. When evil Is defeated by evil
no great gain follows. 1t is the attl-
tude of the soul which counts. How
many and how great the reforms which
await the appearance upon the scene of
action of clear working majority of
loving men with which to replace men
who are only self-seeklng! But 1t is
brave old world for all who are not
seeking ignoble ease. Problems are on
every hand and every one by its very
existence Is a challenge to the aspiring
soul; the challenge of the incomplete.
II is wicked old world, an unfinished
and half-hAlSed old world. but for all
that good old world in which to
grow"

LECTURE ON ARCHAEOLOGY.
Rev. W. vi. Paden Discusses Subject
From Biblical Standpoint.

Rev. w. NJ. Paden of this city deliv-
cred highly interesting lecture on the
subject of Archaeology from Biblical
Standpoint before the Utah Archaeo-
logical society at the university Sat
urday evening. subjects related to
archaeology are like Old books said
the Rev, Paden, and are full OF in
terest to the student of the history of
this world, no matter how much this
generation is seeking after new things.
Archaeology is a science relating to the
things of ancient times and the records
OF the patriarchs of our world. In an
other sense archaeology has 10 do with
records and documents OF the material
sort, such as old paintings and pottery
and monuments of the ancients upon
which are engraved the history of the
people of the earth just as surely and
faithfully as IL they had been recorded
In the most modern of languages.
These are more valuable than literary
documents, which are liable to perish,
for upon these enduring monuments we

did in war, and IN peace. by their
parchments. their pottery and their
weapons.

man past been more vigorously pur-

In the book of Joshua and of Kings

OF such an empire, the idea was held

PLAIN WORDS.
Miss Maria WinlSler's Solution of So
ciaI EVIL Problems.

Miss Maria Winkler spoke yester-
day afternoon. at the Y. M. c. A.
on the white Slave Problem in
which she pleaded earnestly for sin
gle standard OF morals. and said man
IS negligent in his duty TO woman.
Her address was under the auspices
of the Y. w. C. A. and she said in
part
Woman was given to man as a
gift from God. He said that ii was
not good for man to be alone and He
created woman as his companion. to
honor, love and obey him. Man was
to be the protector and guardian of
woman. These relations between man
and woman have been lost sight OF
and for this reason has come the
degradation of woman. Woman is
naturally weak and needs tho power
OF man to protect her from the con-
taminatlons OF this world. The protec-
ton of woman Is a sacred duty incum-
bent upon man by special order of
God Himself. Man, however. has dis
regarded this obligation. He is salts
fed with woman at half her value and
10y this negligence and indifference Is
In large measure responsible for her
downfall The abnormal conditions
OF life and the modes OF living have
much to do with the social evil. The
idea Of women in business and IN the
shops instead OF being In the home Is
wrong. Many young girls leave home
before they are properly prepared TO
meet the stern realities OF life. and
they fall easy victims TO the glamor
and temptations that beset them, The
greed Of man that makes the shame
OF woman an article OF commerce and
trafflcs with the honor OF womanhood
intensifies the evil and makes II the
harder to uproot.'
The speaker warned girls against
accepting candy from strangers as
these candies are often drugged. Sue
told how the traffic in women, origin
nting In France. had spread through
the world, and regular stations in the
traffic are maintained. Salt Lake being
one OF these stations. unsophisticated
ana Ignorant girls are lured away
from their homes under promise OF
employment. Of marriage, or under
other false pretenses. Then the ac-
tual situation breaks In on the girl
and her life is ruined. when II Is too
