tied down to house duties.
In Southern Europe, at any rate
there does not seem to be any dis
position to keep women tied up in
houses. Apparently they are per-
mitted to do any kind of labor that
men are permitted to do; and they
do, in fact, perform a great many
kinds of labor that we in America
think fit only for men. L noticed,
moreover, as rule, that it was on
ly the rough, uuskilled labor which
was allotted to them. If women
worked on the stone quarries, men
did the part of the work that re-
quired skill. Men used the tools,
did the work of blasting the rock.
If women worked on the buildings,
they did only the toughest kind OF
work. l did not see any women
laying brick, nor did L see any
where women carpenters or stone
masons.
In America Negro women and
children are employed very large
ly at harvest time in the cotton
fields, but l never saw in America,
as | have seen in Austria, women
employed as section hands on a
railway. or digging sewers, hauling
coal, carrying the hod, or doing the
rough work in brick yards, kilns,
cement factories.
The emigration to America has
left an enormous surplus of women
in Europe. In England, for in
stance, the woman stand in the
proportion of sixteen to fifteen to
the men. In some parts of Italy
there are cities, it is said, where
all the able-bodied men have left
the country and gone to America.
The changes brought by emigra-
ton have not, on the whole, it
seems to me, affected the life of
women favorably. But the same
thing is true with regard to the
changes brought about by the
growth of cities and the use of
machinery. Men have profited
by the use of machinery more than
women. The machines have tax
en- away from the women the oc-
cupations they had in the homes,
and this has driven them to take
up other forms of labor, of more
or less temporary character, in
which they are overworked and
underpaid.
There must be new distribu-
ton of the occupations. Too
many women in Europe are pre-
forming a kind of labor for which
they are naturally fitted and for
which they have no special train
ing. There are too many women
in the ranks of unskilled labor.
My own conviction is that what
the workingwomen of Europe need
most is kind of education that
will lift larger number of them
into the ranks of skilled labor
that will teach them to do some
thing, and to do that something
well.
The Negro women in America
have a great advantage in this re-
spect. They are everywhere adj
mitted to the same schools to
which men are admitted. All the
Negro colleges are crowded with
women. They are admitted to the

had an opportunity to visit
the evil effects of the drinking hao-
it upon the English women OF the
lower classes when | visited some
of the police courts in poorer parts
of London. When l remarked to
a newspaper acquaintance IN Lon
don that | wanted to see as much
as I could, while l was L was In
the city, of the life of the poorer
neonle. he advised me to visit the
Worship Street and Thames police
station stations. The Worship
street is situated in one OF the
most crowded parts of London IN
close proximity to Bethnal Green
and Spitalfelds, which have for
many wears been the homes OF the
poorer working classes, and espec-
tally of those poor people known
as house workers and casuals, who
live in garretts and make paper
boxes. artificial flowers, ETC., or
pick UP such odd jobs as they can
find. The Thames station is stu
ated a little way from London
Dock and not far from the MOTOR
ious Ratcliff Highway, which un-
til few years ago was the rough
est and most dangerous part OF
London.
Perhaps l ought to say, at the
outset, that two things in regard TO
the London police courts especial
ly impressed me: first, the order
and dignity with which the court
is conducted; second, the care with
which the Judge inquiries into all
the facts of every case he tries'
the anxiety which he shows to Sc
cure the rights of the defendant,
and the leniency with which those
found guilty are treated. In
MANY cases. particularly those in
which men or women were charged
with drunkenness, the prisoners
were allowed to go with little more
than a mild and fatherly reprl-
mand.
After listening for several hours
to the various cases that came up
for hearing, 1 could we'll under
stand that the police have some
times complained that their efforts
to put down crime were not sup
ported by the magistrates VINO
they say, always take the side OF
culprits.
The statistics of London crime
shows that, while only half as
many women as men are arrested
on the charges of simple drunken
ness" and drunkenness with
aoerayations," more than three
times as many women as men are
arrested on the charge of habit
nap, drunkenness. Another thing
that impressed me was that the

BRILLIANT RECEPTION
COLONEL THOMPSON

Quite the most brilliant function in
the history of the Biscayne Bay Yacht
Club. at the Miami clubhouse, was the
reception of the members Monday after
noon to Commodore Robert M. ThOmp-
son. who arrived in Miami Sunday, to
spend several weeks aboard his palatial
houseboat, The Everglades, says the
Miami Herald.
Before three.thirty o'clock more than
twenty yachts owned by members OF
the club, congregated in front of the
clubhouse, and at four o'clock, the
Commodore fired salute, followed by
one gun from the clubhouse, which was
the signal to dip ensigns and immed.
lately after, dress ship. This part of
the program was especially beautiful,
and all yachts seemed to dress ship
simultaneously.
A very pretty feature during the FIR
inp of sautes was the bombs thrown
from the gun aboard The Everglades.
The first bomb thrown burst in the air
and a silk American flag unfolding, and
drifted away out of sight. This was
followed by another bomb, throwing
Chinese, English and American flag.
and the third was Chinese fish. The
fourth was very beautiful. being a
series of pennants. signal codes. etc.
The fifth was Chinese sailor, and the
others were silk flags of various nations.
Following this display, the members
of the club and their families boarded
the Everglades, anchored at the end OF
the clubhouse pier. They were received
at the gang plank by Commodore Thomp-
son, and as they passed on up to the
hurricane deck of the Everglades. they
were received by Mrs. j. West Roose-
Welt. who assisted Commodore Thomp-
son in receiving, Mrs. Thompson be-
ing indisposed. A..
For three quarters of an hour, the,
guests were delightfully."- entertained
aboard the houseboat, on the hurricane
deck. during which time refreshments
were served. All through the hour, the
ROYAL Palm orchestra, stationed in the
clubhouse, played appropriate music.
and at FIVE o'clock, the festive scene OF
the season closed.

Gray, dean of the Moody Institute,

Gray, dean of the Moody Institute,
Chicago.
The Rev. James M. Gray, D. D. is a
noted speaker and bible teacher. AT
an early period in his ministry he be-
came especially interested in the study
of the Bible, in the exposition of which
along popular and deeply spiritual lines
he is recognized throughout our country
and Canada and across the sea, as one
peculiarly gifted of God. For years
his services have been in such demand
at our largest Bible conferences and
conventions, that engagements are
made with him twelve months in ad-
vance.
But perhaps the greatest work he
has been used of God to accomplish is
the Inauguration and maintenance OF
inter- UNCONVENTIONAL Bible classes in
different parts of the country, phe-
nome nal in size and in the interest and
enthusiasm of their membership. 1t has
not been uncommon to see from one
thousand to two thousand, and, even
more, men and women meeting together
in these classes from week to week,
studying the Bible under what has be-
come known as DR.. Gray's synthetic
method. If there were twice as many
days in the week, DR.. Gray could have
large and enthusiastic class every day
of the week.
One secret of DR.. Gray's influence is
the smoothness which he has been able
to work with all the different denomi-
nations, not arousing antagonism but
healing differences and attracting peo-
pie on the same general platform.
Rev. A. H. Plumb. d. d., president
of the Congregational Club, OF Boston,
says: ''In my ministry of over thirty
FIVE years. | have known very few men
whom have regarded with more esteem
for clear biblical and theological know
ledge and true evangelical spirit than
Rev. James M. Gray, d. d. have
never heard from him in any circum.
stance, or on any occasion, one word
which could wish were different. He
is singularly free from any improperly
in public utterance, his words being
we'll considered, fine, ''forcible." and
most convincing.
DR.. Gray is the author of several
books on Biblical themes which are be-
ing used among Christians of all denon-
nations. One thousand copies OF a
work of his on Biblical Introduction
and Christian Evidences" were recently
purchased by a committee Of a certain
denomination and distributed gratui-
tously to every active minister on their
rolls.
Not less tn an 1000 ministers to say
nothing of thousands of other Christ
ians of all denominations, attended the
Union Bible Conference this past sea-
son. During the eleven days of its
session, DR.. Gray was heard on an
average of once a dav or twice as often
as any other speaker on the program.
DR.. Gray's Bible expositions are deep
without being obscure; scholarly, but
not pedantic; thorough, but suggestive
rather than exhaustive, eminently
practical, and also deeply spiritual.
They entertain and interest, but edify
still more. He repeats bravely the re.
dukes of Scripture against any form of
sin; but does so from duty rather than
spite and with pity more than with
pleasure. He respects others opinions
but subjects them all to the criterion
and makes them all bow to the best
court-the Word of God.
