Poverty and the Church.

Ray Stannard Baker, writing in
the September American Magazine
on what he calls 1.-THE Faith of the
Unchurched," points out, among
other things, the difference in the
attitude of the church and its or
ganization towards poverty, and that
of the societies and organizations
which are independent of the church
and cannot be termed religious bod
les, tworads the same great prob
lem. Zone of the deepest, most
complex, most dangerous of the
problems Of our times is that Of pow
erty. What shall be done for the
millions who live along the poverty
line or below, who fill the tene-
ments, who recruit the ranks of
the unemployed? For a thousand
years-always, in fact-the church
has been facing the problem of pow
erty.
"Almsgiving has been one of the
bulwarks of church work, and so
it continues to be to this day. The
church has ever been mediator
between rich and poor; asking of
the rich to keep the poor from suf-
fering. And always the church has
acquiesced in poverty. 1t has quot
ed Scripture: The poor We have al
ways with you,' and it has acted up
on that statement by doing out help,
here little. there little. 1t has
palliated and soothed; the poor have
been kept content with the promise
that patience in bearing poverty and
toll and injustice while other people
enjoy unearned wealth and luxury,
will win the devout soul the bliss Of
a distant heaven after death.
"And no one, for an instance,
would deny that it has been a great
and useful and necessary work to
comfort the axicted and help the
poor; nor that the church has been
diligent at it. But while the church
has continued at the negative work
of palliation and promise, many peo-
pie outside of the churches have had
new vision; they have seen new
light; whole groups Of men and wo-
men are today on fire with the new
faith that poverty can be abolished,
that in a land which produces more
than enough to keep every man. wo-
man and child in comfort, it is
absurd that millions should suffer
from want at one end Of the social
ladder while thousands should de-
cay with luxury and superfuity at
the other end"

Obituary..

The many friends of Mr.. Josiah
d. Way were shocked and saddened
at hearing of his sudden death on
last Friday morning. A kind and
loving father has been taken from
his devoted children, a good neigh
Dor gone from community which
is better from having him live In
it. The brave Confederate soldier
has passed on to join the immortal
army which waits on the other side.
How often we have heard his cap
tain speak of Josiah Way in terms
of high praise, telling of his haven
in battle, and his sympathy for his
sick and suffering comrades. We
have seen him in his home, sur
rounded by his loved ones, and his
devotion to them, and theirs to
him. was something beautiful to see.
But now the golden cord is broken,
and we shall see him here nc more.
He sleeps in the st. George cemetery,
beneath flower covered mound.
One particularly striking emblem
was the beautiful laurel wreath
sent by the local chapter, Daughters
of the Confederacy.
Sleep, soldier; rest they warfare DER,
And dream of battlefields no more.

a country without political freedom,
without freedom of speech, without
a free press, without free ballot,
without jury system, without polit-
ical parties, without any of our
cherished guarantees of life, liberty
and the pursuit Of happiness. 1t Is
a land where there has been no con-
test for the office Of president for
more than a generation, where the
executive rules all things by means
of a standing army, where political
offices are sold for a fixed price,
where the public school system in
vast country districts is abolished
because a governor needs the mon
ey. Mexico is land where the peo-
pie are poor because they have no
rights, where peonage is the rule
for the great mass and where actual
chattel slavery obtains for hundreds
of thousands. This is certainly
news to many of us, and it is a
wonder that the people down there
submit to such a condition of things.
