| they are one. The church is composed
very largely of wage earners and she
has always taught them to be indus
trious, saving and honest. | do not
mean to infer that in all cases the
church has stood for the best inter-
est of the wage earners. She has fail

been the exception.
Neither can it be said that the
church is antagonistic to labor or
CARNATIONS. 1t is true that individuals
on both sides have been bitterly an
tagonistic, but they do not represent
either the church or labor The church
intends to be fair minded and SYM
pathetic toward all classes. 1t is rath-
err singular that large number of
persons seek to create antagonism be-
tween the church and labor.
perhaps nothing truer or better
has been said on this question than
this statement adopted at the last gem
eral conference of the Methodist Epis
copal church. The Methodist Epis-
copal church stands: For equal rights
and complete justice for all men in all
stations of life; for the principle of
Cancellation and arbitration in indus
trial dissensions; for the protection
of the worker from dangerous ma
chnery. occupatioaal diseases, injuries
and mortality; for the abolition of
child labor; for such regulation of the
conditions of labor for women as shall
safeguard the physical and moral
health of the community; for the sup
preston OF the sweating system, for
the gradual and reasonable reduction
of the hours of labor to the lowest
practical point with work for all, and
for that degree of leisure for all, which
is the condition Of the highest human
life; for a living wage in every in
dustry: for the highest wage that
each industry can afford, and for the
most equitable division of the products
of industry that can ultimately be de-
vised; for the recognition of the Gold
en- rule and the mind of Christ as the
supreme law OF society and the sure
remedy for all social evils

Housing and Sanitation.

The problem of Housing and SAM
tation" WAS discussed by Rev. Edwin
NJ Sloeombe. The speaker defined I'M
sanitary housing as any condition
that in itself tends to impair physical
health, such as lack of water. i'm
proper drainage or sewage and lack
Of pure air. He said that there We're
5000 rooms in New York City alone
without a single window and cited six
blocks in which the average infant
mortality was 90 per thousand, while
in the whole city it was 81 per thou
sand" The crowded tenements, said
the speaker are sources of vice as
well as disease, because of lowered
vitality, which makes possible vice as
we'll as disease, and because of the
conditions, which prevent the privacy
of the family" The most pitiful vic
tom of the slums is not the slum child
who dies, but the slum child who
lives"
1--WE have slums in Augusta" he
continued, for slumS are not a mat
ter of size, but of conditions and there
may be a slum of one room. Who is
responsible fer all the unsanitary
tenements in Augusta? 1t is the land
lord, the man who makes the profit
from the house, for the larger imme-
date profit is in the wretched tene-
ment The associations of landlords
are responsible, if by the raising of
rents by associations above what they
should be people are compelled to pay
higher rents or move into poorer
houses
The speaker believed that the
churches could remedy this evil by
and becoming fully ac-
e,la 'rted with the poorer tenements
in the CITY.
