Carleton and Miss Katherine Carrie were
married by Rev. Frank r. HURT. in cage
with FIVE lions at the Zoo, North avenue

not seem TO mind II much.
The wedding was the result OF a declara-

money would be given any couple who
would be married in a cage with the trained
animals. It was the purpose OF Bringing

ladder. and the usual marriage ceremony
OF the Methodist Episcopal church was
read. after which the minister filled In the
regulation certificate, which reads: This
is to certify" etc. The press agent said
that $3.50 IN gold was given the couple.
At any rate, just before the great and

EDISON TURNS TO CONCRETE
Wizard of Electricity Hopes TO Mold
Houses Complete I'm FOur
Days. 4 {

Something new in the line OF house buiid-
ing is being planned by, the great wizard
OF electricity. Thomas A. Edison. His
latest notion is said to mold houses out Of
conctete in a single casing. He plans TO
build house complete in four days out %
concrete.
An architect will be employed to design
dwelling houses of different deaignsi me-
talic molds will be made in detachable
parts that can be screwed together easily
TO form an entire house. sThe mold for
the whole house Is to set up and concrete
pumped into every nook and Granny. After
four days the parts OF the mold will b
unscrewed and removed and the solid con-
crete house will remain.
Mr. Edison asserts that the house will be
so complete that dormer windows, chime
neys. spouts, inside cupboards, bannisters.
mantle piece, and even bath tubs will be
formed in the cast In which the house
proper win be made Even the plumbing
and gas piping will be OF concrete and
nodded in the original cast. From each
mold, the FIRST cost Of which-with all It's
parts-is estimated at $4,000. an unlimited
number OF houses may be produced. be-
cause the parts OF the mold may be de-
tachable, II will be portable. and one mold
may be sent with little dihheulty from town

houses could be built in one year by the
use Of single mold. at cost OF $500 to

CHRIST, HIS CHURCH,
AND LABOR UN|0N|SM
Observations by Rev. Charles
Stelzle of Interest to All
Readers.

Whether or not Christ would join
a labor union, were he on earth today
has been very positively decided by
others. Curiously enough, the argu-
ment sometimes employed by those
who say that he would not do so, is
one of the best arguments as to why
the average workingman should be-
come identified with the Church Of
today.
1t is said by these opponents Of
trades unionism that Christ would
have nothing to do with it, because
there is in organized labor so much
corruption and lawlessness. Taking
for granted-for the sake Of argu-
ment-that there is much in organized
labor that is deplorable, it is interest
ing to note how Christ regarded the
church organization of his day with
which he was identified.
It was a time honOred organization,
with a. history Of which one might, in
| many respects, be proud. 1t had had
as its leaders the prophets Of old, who
stood for the right Of the common peo-
pie. These ancient Jews had suffered
heritage Of their fathers.
! But in Christ's day this organiza-
ton had fallen into bad ways. Its
| leaders, the scribes and the Pharisees,
were bitterly denounced by Jesus, and
| accused of hypocrisy, graft and per-
| secution. Everybody knows that he
himself forfeited his own life because
| Of his insistence upon the fact that
he was the Son of God, and that he
had been sent to redeem the people.
But while Jesus denounced the sins
Of these false leaders, he still retained
his relationship with the old church,
regularly attending its services and it's
feasts, until the very time that he
| was taken prisoner and delivered in
| to the hands Of the Romans. In a
word, he did not cut himself off from
| the Jewish church, simply because
| there were in it some who were un-
true to the larger, finer spirit of the
| church.
While there are some things in the
present day Christian Church which
are to be regretted, it is not at all
likely that Christ would repudiate the
entire system. He would undoubtedly
denounce the evil, but he would also
emphasize the good in the church,
seeking to raise the standard Of liv-
ing among it's constituents. Undoubt-
eddy this would also be his attitude
towards organized labor, because 1.
was Christ's method in dealing with
individual men. Therefore, it is fair
to say that Jesus would be identified
with both the present day church and
with present day trades unionism, for
the ultimate purpose Of purifying both
organizations Of whatever evil there
may be in them. And If that would
be the position Of Him whom we are
pleased to call our Master and Teach
er, we can afford to follow him.
