 way any endeavor to come into con- tact with them on a spirit ual basis. Let tomorrow nights crowded build ing testify to the desire on the part of the working people to put the re- ligious note into the observance or their great holiday. Labor at wor- ship is the key to the whole meeting. But not only will this meeting bring the church and the laboring
 man together, but it will. put them both at work. A church is useless un- less it is pushing things along. And gathering of working people is idle unless the men are enlisted in the night there will be an offering the pro ceeds of which will go to the support of the anti-tuberculosis work in this | city. Every dollar collected will be spent for this work, as the expenses meeting have already been provided ! fortunate sufferer from the 'Wf11te plague" will bless this meeting for
 the luxury of fresh milk and eggs
 which this money will have provided. l Finally, this meeting will give an
 opportunity for our people to hear
 one of the greatest speakers to la boring men in this country. The Rev.
 Charles Sickle is the man of all men
 who at such a meeting of working men gathered for the purpose of Wor-
 ship can strike the right key.
 | Come, with your wives and children | and friends and make this meeting a spiritual and a practical success. l A Prayer for Labor Day by the Rev. Gerald Beard of Park Street Congre- gational church: Almighty God as we come again to
 the celebration of the day in which Labor commands our especial inter- est and honor, we humbly pray thy
 blessing our Father God, on all who all
 heart and hand and brain be united
 in the spirit of Jesus as never before
 May our holiday become a holy day because men have taken step nearer to that great time when mannooe
 shall everywhere give character to : work and work shall recognize an6 reward manhood.
 Grant, we earnestly beseech thee
 that, in the days to come, our aims
 as workers in all departments of life may become purified and ennobled Conscious that to be living in this ag' is sublime, may we hold characte. . first and the possession of things sec , ondary in all our striving. Ma. . peace and good will reign among @ me- ies of all sorts and conditions. May in justice be defeated and violence ceas ! in all labor conflicts. May humal , sympathy become truer and nor practical. May those that are oppress , ed obtain deliverance. May thos = , daily help for daily need. And ma , all the sons of labor be united nor
 and more, in the strength of that di ) vinely human spirit which thou onl r Icanst inspire.
 To this great end, may the worsh1 s and the fellowship of this day and Q :, the morrow be abundantly blessed and we, dealing truly in love, gro1
 up in all things into him who is tn il head, even Christ, from whom com e eth the increase of the body unto tn l building up of itself in love. w
 pray as sons of God and disciples l Jesus the Christ. Amen.
