NEED OF STRONG
MORAL TONE TOLD
TO LABOR men
Delegation from Essex Trades
Council Attends Service at
West Presbyterian Church.

A large delegation from the Essex
Trades Council and the Building Trades
Council was in attendance last night
at the West Presbyterian Church, and
heard with the closest attention an elo-
ouent sermon on the labor question, de-
1ivered by the pastor, the Rev. Harold
C. Harmon. Taking as his subject,
Making Good on. the Job" Mr.. Har-
mon said, in part:
Labor Sunday is that day on which
the church as an organized body of
workers greets the workers in the field
of industry. One great department of
organized labor sends a message to an
other great department of organized
labor.
s'This is the age of organization, the
wisdom of organism being appre-
ciated more now than ever before.
Complete organization, however. is
found only in the cooperation of the
three main forces Of life.
Physical force alone Is valueless.
Mental force in control of the physical
may become a great evil. It is only
when a right moral principle finds
proper place that we may have the
best union, cooperation and organiza-
tion. Labor organization Is the result
of wise cooperation of man governed
by the great moral principal of justice.
This is the ra1lying cry. Fraternity
and equality have their place. The
church is a similar organization, gov
erned by the moral principles lived and
taught by Christ. Righteousness is the
rallying cry and the PRONUNCIATION of
their principles is its work. Working
through individuals it seeks to reach
other organizations and so have the
vigilance and strength of their princi-
Piles govern in every branch Of life."

MIR. Geo. M. Robertson, on Fri

small bones Of his left forearm,
caused by a fall in jumping from
buggy. lie had been mp to the
club house on Spanish lake for a
fish supper, and upon the return
trip an automobi)ing party, at high
speed, seemed determined to take
the road to the exclusion Of every
one else. When nn impact seemed
inevitable Mr.. Robertson jumped.
The emergency brakes were ap.
piled on the auto, it backed mp.
veere,l it's course, and sped away,
the occupants never inquiring
about the results Of their careless
driving. In the darkness they
were not recognized. Mr.. Robert

such heartleRs Indifference Of the
consequences. Should the Incl
