BAPTIST eARAcA CLASS NO. 7

The recent contest in class No. of
the Baptist Bible school resulted in a
victory for the reds under George c.
Whitney, captain over the blues, cap
tanned by Holland j. Wilson. The con-
testants at the beginning numbered IS
on each side and at the wnd-up on
Easter Sunday there were 80 members on
the class roll, none of the new ones be-
ing counted until they had been present
three Sundays, and 60 were present that
day. Last evening the blues sgnified
their appreciation of the. activities of
the reds by serving a fine supper in the
social rooms of the church. About so
or more enjoyed first the feast for the
body and then the feast of reason and
flow of soul" which followed.
A cordial welcome having been eX-
tended by Captain Wilson. Captain
Whitney responded and Mr.. Mixer. class
president introduced Captain Perrett of
the Salvation Army, who spoke force
fully upon some lessons from the history
of Saul, king OF Israel. Rev. F. A.
Wells of the Methodist church, the guest
of the class, spoke felictously and in
spiringly upon the competitive idea as
applied to business and religion. His
address showed a reserve supply of wit
and wisdom which was the envy of all
present. Rev. DIR. Cow congratulated
the class upon the results achieved and
urged continual activity along that line,
He also invited the whole class to be
present Sunday morning. May %, at the
church service. which invitation was ac-
cepted vociferously. The suggestion was
dropped that a drum and fife or some
effective means be adopted to ensure the
early rising of every man that morning.
After two selections by the Baraca
quartet. consisting of Messrs. Morse,
Maynard, Crowell and Knight, followed
by tumultous applause, the teacher OF
the class Mr.. Hawley, made remarks,
calling attention to the National Baraca
union which will meet in Kansas City In
June also the observance of mothers
day in the church and Bible school May
IA. expressing the hope that every one
whose mother Is living would write her,
or, as suggested by the pastor. IL the
father only Is living that he be written
to and tenderly remembered that day.
Every member of the school Is expected
to wear white carnation that Sunday
in honor of the mother living or gone
before
The whole AFFAIR was delightfully."- in
spring in its inception and in the way
1t was carried out and bespeaks new ac-
tlvity and virility In this young mems

hoped that there may be n constantly

may be fully Informed as to the dan
gers of the present tendencies OF the
times through the amassing of large
sums of money under the management

eyes of the producers so that they may
be bile to see that they have been led

who are now striving to perpeuatp

Portions of the daily press have had
much to say about the vast sums of
money which are being raised for the
legal defense of the Mcnamara broth
ers. These large sums of money exist
only in the fertile brains of press writ
ers. 1t is true organized labor is able
to pour a vast sum into Los Angeles
but up to date the money actually re-
ceived for the defense is not large. Each
union has apparently thought that there
was plenty of time for its own particu-
lar contribution and has been in no hurry
to send it in. The unions should be
prompt in this matter. When the news
was flashed across the country of the
arrest of the union officials. central
bodies everywhere gave voice to indig-
nant protest against the high handed
kidnapping and pledged their affiliated
organizations to render moral and finan-
cial assistance. 1t is time now to make
those pledges good. Moral sympathy
will not meet the enormous financial OBJ
legations this great trial will demand

The report of the vice commission APP

Without purporting to be a treatise on

wages, long hours, the whole brutal
chain of evils that bind the women
wage earners is shown to be the direct
cause in most instances which started
the social outcast on the downward
road. a road from which society has

prison commissioner who has for years
investigated conditions of prison life

the moral lapse. After long, hard hours

realization of the danger. Soon the girl
learns that there are easier ways of self
support than the treadmill of factory
life, and she drifts into the ranks OF the
scarlet sisterhood and eventually finds
herself behind the restraining bars of n

huge machine full of knives and rolls
that crunched manned and killed. I'm
agine monster standing at the end of
that machine and pouring into it the
bodies of women and children. Think of
those bodies coming out from that muir
derous machine, with flesh torn and
bruised, bones crushed and broken, many
of them falling out lifeless. A repre-
sentative of the Home for Ruined Girls
stands by and as one fearfully crushed
form drops to the ground she eXclaims
in pity, Poor thing; I'll take this poor
girl with me-" And another representa-
tive of religious society stands by and
claims for that institution the form of

any relief that can be offered is the

Would you feel like applauding the work
of those good people or would you feel
like shouting out to them, I'm Gods
name, throttle the life out of the in
human brute that stands in front of that
machine feeding it with the bodies of
living women and children!" Stop the
cause. 1t is not to be wondered at if
some of us are losing patience with the
work of the relief associations when we
see the system that produces criminals,
prostitutes and paupers grinding on
without let or protest. Here and there
discerning men and women who have
studied the social system from the bot
ton are crying aloud to the nation that
we cannot damn Niagara until we dry
up its source. When the various reform
forces that are now working conscient-
iously and earnestly to relieve suffering
learn that only reimbursement of So
ciety can do away with the social evil,
a revolution will be under way The
great burning question is not to protect
women against the evils of industry but
to wipe out the system that produces
the evils.
