any crying need on their part for
just that kind of a moral stimulant.
But successful men usually like to
hear success" eulogized and, unfor-
tunately, the average preacher is
constrained to tell his congregation
what he feels they would prefer to
hear.
DR.. Matthews sermon seemed to
deal with success" and his quoted
words imply that the kind of sue
cess" he had in mind was the kind
that results in becoming conspicu-
ous-obtaining position which
shall be acknowledged by others to
be espectable-in a word, the graf
ification of our thirst for applause.
That thirst is about the first infirm-
ity of weak character, but unfor-
tunately it seems to be the strongest
impelling influence of average HUI
mainly. Certainly it would not seem
to require any stimulus from the pull
pit. But current literature and pull
pit oratory seem to be largely in
spired by it, and for that reason |
venture to protest against ii. Person
ally, if | were about to preach SER
mon on success, | should pointedly
distinguish different kinds. | should
show how success may consist on the
one hand in building up of charac-
ter with reference to moral princi-
pie: or. on the other, OF gaining
more or less of the whole world and
losing our own soul; and | should
urge acceptance of the lesson on the
Mountain in the Holy Land, where
the most successful personality in
all history signaliZed his greatest
triumph with the exclamation, Get
thee behind me, Satan" But this
is not to be a sermon, anyway not
that kind OF sermon. 1t is mere
~ to be slight inquiry into the
possibilities of achieving that species
of success approved By Dr.. Matthews,
now so generally applauded and so
heartily coveted. but whose treasures
are subject to the ravages OF moths,
thieves and corruption.
The prime condition Of selfish sue
cess now most generally approved is
somewhat different from that which
prevailed when Dr.. Matthews was a
boy. In those days it was persist
emily taught that success depended
upon piety. But this theory of sue
cess has been abandoned, at least
largely. Too many pious men have
failed Too many pious men are
bopelessly poor. Too many Of the
wicked have been crowned with sue
cess. Now Industry" is the catch

PETER M'G|Ll ON
SUCCESS
Takes DR.. Matthews to Task
for His Sermon to His
Wealthy Congregation

| quote the following from recent
sermon, preached by the Rev. DR..
Matthews, to his wealthy congrega-
ton in Seattle:
Because OF his skill, faithfulness,
industry and willingness to labor
he will be sought after and will be
employed by men of large enter
prises. He will be given great re-
sponsibility. HIS associations in
business will be of the highest type
and his dealings will be with men
of commensurate value, influence
and power"
Inasmuch as DR.. Matthews con-
gregation comprises the most sue
cessful and influential people of
Seattle, there would not seem to be
The Wenatchee daily world. [volume] (Wenatchee, Wash.) 1905-1971, 1910-12-19

a class, for, as soon as greater in
dustry becomes general, it's profits
go to make monopolists what DR..
Matthews calls successful.
Under present economic conditions
to teach that success depends upon
industry is cruel. 1t would only be
the simple truth to teach that it de-
ponds upon monopoly. But there are
always number of poisonous half
truths skulking and sneaking about
the world and they are more deadly
than obvious lies. What a pity that
some prominent preacher is always
ready to drag them into the lime
light and indorse them,

SUBURBAN RACE suicide DUE TO SERVANT PROBLEM
Situation Grows More Serious in Communities Of Commuters
scramble For Household Hep---German Girl Who
Advertises For Work Receives Sixty-three Of
ferS in Single Day.

Montclair, N. Suburban race
suicide is an evil that threatens New
Jersey communities of commuters be-
cause of the inability of housewives
to obtain competent household help.
Servants were never harder to get in
Montclair and other North Jersey
towns than now, and 1t is asserted
here that the servant problem is more
vital to the well-being of the country
than the suffrage question.

mother, and we must adopt differ
ent attitude toward those who help
us keep up thing very essential to
the nation-American home life"
The scarcity of household help was
emphasized last week by inquiry at
one old established employment agen-
cy, where it was asserted that the
only woman who had applied for en-
ployment in three weeks was a de-
serted wife with child four years
old. Even her services were in de-
mand and the woman who hired her

STRIKERS WIN IN TRENTON
Citizens Took Sides With Carmen
After Fighting Began.
Many Men Hurt During Rioting--
Wesley Tall Chief, an Indian,
Was Fatally Shot.

Trenton, N IA double shooting,
as result of which one man was ex-
pected to die, marked the ending of
the strike of employees of TIE Trenton
Street Railway Company, the men
getting practically all their demands.
At least fifteen men were injured
during the rioting Three strike
supposed to be drowned, having been
thrown into the sAssanpink Creek by a
mob, and five were in Jail.
The settling of the strike was due
to the pressure of public opinion on
the trolley officials. The company
has been unpopular because of its
inadequate service. A committee of
citizens held a conference in the after
noon with President John A. Riggs
and other officials of the company.
The result was that the railroad Off
Gals agreed to pay twenty-three cents
an hour, to rearrange hours of work
so that "shifts" are eliminated and to
reinstate three employees who were
discharged while the union was being
organized. The union was practically
recognized.
1t was with the greatest difficulty
that the strikebreakers were got out
of town. A great crowd gathered in
front of the car barns, armed with
missiles. The strikebreakers did not
trust themselves to police protection.
After climbing over back fences they
reached the Lamberton Railroad sta
ton, about two miles below the city.
A special train was waiting for them
there.
Wesley Tall Chief, a former Car
Isle Indian School student. now a
fireman in the employ of the Penn
sy1vania Railroad, was shot in sa-
loon in East Trenton when separating
two men wao quarreled about the
street car strike. Tall Chief was re-
moved to a hospital and is not ex-
pected to recover.
