Ho, the magic songs they sing
Down the Powered paths of spring
Songs that are too fair for words,
All the coaXing songs of birds.
Here the dingy streets of town
Gloom and stagger up and down!
But the fair blue sky afar
Minds US where the forests are.
And they call us-all the strains
Tell us of the country lanes
Rambling through the meadow land
Decked at dawn by fairy hand;
Tell us of the paths that lead
Past the vine and trembling reed
To the fields where sudden bloom
Freights the air with faint perfume.
Through the clamor of the streets
This dim calling ever beats,
AS a song from far away
Blown across the sunny day,
And the walls and houses seem
To be changed as in a dream,
While mirages fair arise
Of green fields and glinting skies.
And they say the dogwood CLEANS
On the fringes of the streams,
While the flashing daffodils
Signal to US from the hills,
Where the paths go rambling round
Ho, the slaves in shackles bound
Where the dingy streets of town
Gloom and stagger up and down.

NE elect OF HOME LIFE
Is BREEDING CRIME.
Home Influence Dying Out
in This Country.
By Madison c. Peters.

The daily cost of crime committed
in this country amounts to $3,500,000,
or the astonishing total of $1,277 000,-
600, a sum that would pay the total
national debt in two years.
Two hundred persons are done to
death by violence every week, making
10000 murders every year, number
equal to the army which Cyrus led
over the plains of Persia into Central
Asia, the march of which Xenophen
chronicles "The Anabasis.
In Chicago alone there are 100
murders a year. In London with four
times the population, there are bat
20 murders, while Paris, supposed to
be the modern Babylon, records but
10.
Crime is on the increase in this
country. Even little girls and boys
engage in hold-ups In Philadelphia
one person is arrested out of every II
in the population. New York can
boast of 100000 arrests year.
We boast of our laws and .institu-
tions. The artist depicts our prog
ress on canvas, while the orator pro-
claims it from thousand platforms.
You may lay the blame on tile ne
gro and the immigrant, but the native
white Americans don't seem to be
much better Here are the national
tiles of homicides: Native white 1924
per cent; foreign born 1854 per cent;
negroes 37.12 per cent.
VagaBondia has followed the natural
tendency, and is now trust, fully or
ganized with districts, lieutenancies,
boards of directors, meeting places,
grips, passwords and a sign language.
There are more than million tramps
in the country at present. The or
ganization is growing rapidly, and only
requires a competent leader to make
it the most formidable criminal prob
lie mtl5e country has ever had to face.
There are upwards of 100000 men and
women serving timAH;n the peniten-
tiaries of the land. %.sA are the most
lawless country in the civilized world
today.
How far is woman responsible for
this lawlessness? Her luxury, her ex-
| travagance, her addiction to the pleas
ures of the world, her recklessness of
duty, her responsibility must be
reckoned, but l believe that in the
main the cause of these fatal crimes
is the neglect of the home. Where
now in many home today is the ia
Their? Where is the mother If she
drinks and CANDLES, where is the
| moral power? The influence of the
home is gone. This oldest institution
older than any civil government on
earth, older THAN any ecclesiastical
ganization--shouId on this divinely-
founded society keep up it's old-time
purity. And yet what do we see all
about us? The wrecks of homes; the
shadows and ghosts of homes; the
home life slowly dying out, and with
it the home influence, the home train
ing, tile home religion.

VAST GROWTH or THE BAPTIST
CHURCH.

One person out of every eighteen "a
the United States is a communicate OF
the Baptist church One probably out
of every six is either a communicate
or member of a Baptist family and
with leaning, by birth and early
training, toward that faith. And the
army of Baptists is growing rapidly,
so that, within quarter of a century,
in all likelihood, the proportion of Bap-
tons, may be one to every FIVE, or
even four, of the population.
When George Washington took the
oath of Office as the first president Of
the United States only one person out
of every 81 was a Baptist. The differ
ence between that proposition and the
one existing today, in view of the
enormous growth of the country N
population, tells the story of the on
ward march of this great Protestant
church.
The following data concerning the
church presents concisely important
facts that will be of interest not only
to the members of this particular
church, but to all church people:
Among the Protestant denomina-
tons of the United States the Bap-
lists rank second They number s.
662,3334. The Method,sts are frs,
with 5,749,83S.
The Baptists of the United States
raised last year for church work $22,-
813,864. This does not include their
gifts to education.
They own and control ten theolog-
ical seminaries valued at $1,32IOO0,
with an endowment fund of $4,000
600.
They own and control "a universe
ties and colleges, valued at $28,846,O S5,
Wits an endowment of $2S,212,S69
They have $4,000 students in their
colleges and universities. This means
that about one-seventh of all the
university and college students in the
United States are in Baptist colleges.
They own about one-eighth of all
the college and university property
in the United States and control one
ninth of the endowment funds.
Besides their universities and col
leges, the Baptists own and control
"a secondary SCHOOLS, valued at $4,-
245,407, with an endowment fund OF
$1,6S4,O94. They have in these schools
14,452 students.
The Baptists of the United States
have nearly $75,0O0,OOO invested in ed
ucational work.
In the year 1900 there were So
900 Baptists in the United States. On
January 1, 1909, there were 5,145,14a
Baptists in good standing in the Unit
ed States.
The fifteen Southern states com
prising the territory of the Southern
Baptist convention have within their
borders 2.139,OSO Baptists.
There are 49,302 Baptist church ant
! 34,132 ordained ministers of the de-
nomination in the United States.
There were 295,OOO people baptized
in the United States last year.
