is in the background of our thinking
that there is at this moment some
future Josiah, with the fate of nations
in his hands. who may now be swayed
by a woman's word, mans example
Cleaning Up and Building Up.
Some men are builders and some
are destrOyers; Josiah was destroy
er of the bad and a builder of the
good. He was not afraid to demolish.
Hoary and respectable wrongs had
no terrors for him. He feared not to
run counter to popular tendencies
The 'standpat' element at court could
neither cajole nor alright him. He
had the clear eye of the good, which
sees wrong as wrong, an. seeing
fears not. The old idols were doomed
by this young king with simple ideas
and pure heart. Nor did he show any
of the weakness or dilatcriness Of the
specifically pious. He hit hard when
he hit. Idolatry knew that its day had
ended when once Josiah got after it,
for his reforms went to the root.
Neither the evil nor the evil-doers
were spared when this viriie king set
out to restore the pure worship of
Jehovah.
When a man finds the times out of
joint as did Josiah, what is he to do
about it2 Whine and talk seIf-right-
eously, or pitch in and clean them up
to the limit of his power? There is
legitimate reform work for every red
blooded man ready to his hand. There
are gross evils to be smashed. and 9TH
ers, more difficult, to be eradicated by
skill. Whatever the method, the bad
is not to be complaisantly tolerated.
The Josiah way is to grapple with it
by practical measures. The modern re-
lligious method, cynic might remark,
is to try to reform the world by
adopting resolutions.
a big slump succeeds the Welsh re-
vival because no adequate measures
were taken to provide edlfication for
the converts. Josiah followed his
work of demolition with others of con-
struction. He set about repairing the
temple. Positive, constructive church
work-or, to speak in less stereOtyped
terms that mean the same thing-re-
ligious service for the bet erment of
mankind, must accompany all reform
efforts. To conduct a crusade against
down town dives, without = the sam e
time providing clean, uplifting and
genuinely interesting places of amuse-
ment and reaction for young peo-
pie, does not SAVIOR of the Josiah way.
Take a walk through Whitechapel, in
LOndOn-tO be discreetly remote in
the illustration-and you will find doz-
ems of public houses, theaters and
other places of entertainment alluring-
ly open, but only one dinghy lighted
The business of making religion at
tractive and joyous to the world has
been largely neglected. Let us build
up the church, as Josiah built UP the
temple, and then let the church minis
ter to all the many-sided needs of the
men and women whose idols we have
thrown down.

It is foreigner who strikingly en-
phasizes a fact in American history
which has escaped the attention of
Americans. In his second volume Of
THE American People, A study in Ma
tional Psychology" to be published
this autumn by Houghton Mif1in Co.,
Mr. A Maurice Low says that "Ameri-
ca is the one country, civilized or bar
barous, in which woman has never ex-
ercised the slightest influence on its
affairs or in the least degree affected
its policies or it's politics; who was
never the great social force that she
has been in Europe in modern times
or in the East when the world was
young and women wrecked dynasties
and made work for the map makers"
He explains this by saying that in all
the history of America, from the
landing of the Jam estown adventurers
to our own times there have been two

are rescued from oblivion" One was
Mistress Anne Hutchinson in the early
