AIM
Is TO UPLIFT


Washington, Jan. &c. That the
churches Of the country are growing
eioser to each other in a common eff
fort for better humanity was the
declaration OF President Taft In an
address to a hundred delegates of the
federal council Of the Church OF Christ
of America In the east room of the
White House.
"The spirit of Christian brotherhood
and of tolerance" said Mr.. Taft, has
greatly increased In the last three
decades. and there Ia a disposition In
all Chrtstiafl denominations toward
team work In the light for better hu-
naanity, q fight that requires every ef-
fort that exn be made and an effort
made as eRectivs ~ possible BY or
ganizntfon."
1T Is trueST he said, shat We have
no established religion here, and 1t b
also true that that fact declared In the
constitution has led . good many peo-
pie who do not understand our gov
eminent and our people and our con-
stitution to think that the absence
Of q provision Of that sort In the con
stitutien IL dictated by some sort Of
hostility ~ the civil government to-
ward the church and toward religion.
Nothing could be further from the
fact.
There rs today, j think. a stronger
feeling toward the uplifting of human
ity, toward sacrifice Ia effort and In
money for tho depressed and the un-
fortunate than there sveT has been In
our country and that feeling IL certain
" promoted and increased by church
movements. Churches differ, AZ poo
pie differ, ss parties dfHer. The truth
Is II We all ssrecd on everything In
tastes, in belief, there would be q
commonness of ambition, q pursuit Of
the same thing and 4 monotony Ii ~
suit that would ultimately kill N iii
of weariness. What makes maj 10
that he Is m independent being with
Independent responsibilities and with
the power of independent thought,
aud therefore It must create diner-
ences of opinion. but 1t IL very salts
factory to know that all the Christian
peoples arc coming closer together in
thinking that certain u~nessenttal ten
cts are not OF the highest Importance
and that which Is most important Is

itual uplifting of all the people"

Yielding the Car Seat.

Have you ever seen an old man give
up his seat in a street car to a young
woman and have you noted the IN
blushing grace with which she ac-
copied If
If you have 1t was right there that
you had a lesson in human nature
On the other hand have you seen the
brazen efrontery of q lot of young
men who have kept their seats when
Old women and young women were
standing in the aisles or hanging TO
straps?
Another lesson in human nature,
There are several sides TO this
question Of giving up the seat in the
car, but the New York World epito-
mics the situation as follows:
The commoner forms of politeness
rest upon basis of race necessity as
old as civilization. They cannot be
forgotten without public loss. Women
are usually less able to fight their way
TO seats than men. They are less ft
to stand in moving cars. Their cloth
ing is a heavy and constant handicap
TO the naturally weaker sex. They
ShOG4O 10 ldFO1 OF III every way POo-
sible by the stronger men
Without considering race needs. a
young man has the best of selfish
reasons for invariably surrendering
his seat He cannot for his own sake
afford to contract the bad habit of
remaining seated while women stand.
1t is as easy to form habits of courtesy
as OF discOurresy. Men who have been
30 years consistently yielding their
seats find If no hardship to do SO,
even for the ten-thousandth time.
They would be uncomfortable doing
otherwise. and they are better men
for not having in youth contracted
lazier ways. Young men are much
prompter TO rise in a theatre car
than IN the subway at rush hour. But
conduct is the same al
all times OF day
New here is the whole thing in
It pays to be courteous and .
kind to our fellow men not only for .
the good we do them. but for the eff
rect upon ourselves. If you don't be
ieye If, try it awhile and see what it
does for you.
