CHRISTIAN ENDEAvoR.
Prayer Meeting Topic For the Week
Beginning Nov. 20, 1908.
BY REV. S. II. DOYLE.

by REV. ). II. DO1 LIE.
Topic.-Home mission. A million year;
sur foreign immigrants.-Isa ii, 1-22.
Isaiah's prophetic description of all
ne nations of the world gathering to-
neither at Mount Zion seems TO ex-
press in way the attitude of all ma
tons toward our land From what
part Of the globe do they not come to
God has bestowed SO many blessings?
1t is true that they come million
strong annually for the temporal and
material good that is to be obtained,
and yet their very presence here gives
a. a golden opportunity to bring them
to the cross of Christ that they may be
saved God is giving us foreign
mission field at home, and we should
take advantage of it, both for their
sakes and our own as nation.
The general tendency up until a
short time ago was to look upon this
great influx of foreigners, many of
them undesirable citizens" as men,
ace to our national life and institu-
tions. But this view is fast losing
ground Those who have carefully
studied the subject have come TO the
conclusion that they are to be bless
ing rather than menace or a curse.
1t is true that they are vast in num-
bers, yet they scatter over large terri
tories and therefore can do no very
great harm. In our large cities the
police can take care of them If they
become dangerous. On Broad street,
In Philadelphia. three brave ofiicersput
to flight an Italian mob following the
red flag. 1t is true that many of the
adults are illiterate. but their children
can and are being educated in our pub
lie schools The improvement even in
one generation in this respect is almost
Incredible. They are mostly industri-
Gus and saving and are doing work In
our land that Americans would de-
cline today. Many great recent ma
tional operations in our country have
only been made possible by the pres
ence of this army of workers. who
have been willing to WELD the pick
and shovel above ground or under
ground The present generation does
not understand or appreciate our ma
tional institutions, but the second and
third generations will if properly train
ed. The perpetuity of nation depends
to a great extent at least upon the con-
slant adding of new blood into the ma
tional life. Continual intermarriage
among the same race of people causes
1t to decline physically ard mentally.
For these reasons the coming genera
ton Of the foreigners may be great
factor in the perpetuation of the Amer
lcan people and nation
In the face of these facts who can
declare that foreign immigration. even
at a million year. is any great menace
to us? Let us rather consider it other
wise and let state and church in their
respective relations to these masses
make the way easy for them to be-
come real and true Americans. remem-
bering that our ancestors were once
Immigrants themselves.
