The Great Cathedrals.

In St Louis the Catholics are in
vesting a sum in excess of $4,000, 900
in the erection or a magnificent cathe-
dral, which shall serve as the center
OF the archdiocese of ST Louis. A
similar enterprise has been projected
in St Paul, and Washington and Bal
timore are also engaged in rearing
million dollar temples for the worship
and 70 the honor Of God.
IN New York city. at the northern
end Of Manhattan. on Morningside
Protestant Episcopal church is erect
ing a structure which. when complet-
ed. will have cost $40, 900. and
which will take rank with the great
cathedrals of European Christianity.
The time necessary for its completion
will approximate 55 years, it is esti-
mated.
At the mention Of the foregoing en-
terprises IN ecclesiastical architecture
many will again question the wisdom
and righteousness of sinking such stu
pendous amounts in rearing great
fanes for the worship of God. Could
lot God have been worshiped more fit
tingly by bestowing this bounty upon
the poor? Should not these vast
amounts have been diverted into
streams of humanitarian and elee-
mosynary blessing 70 water the earth
and TO enrich and succor those STEPPED
in adversely? These and similar Quer-
les will 7surge upon the skeptic and
,Lz hn diS,,,icSod
impairment
Yet a thoughtful consideration of
the case will remind one that the cree
ton OF great churches affords steady
employment to thousands Of workmer
and skilled artisans who might other
wise be idle and without a means of
subsistence: that thus fires are kin
died. hearths warmed. hunger slaked,
mouths fed, bodies clothed, families
gladdened, households blessed; that
thus the church may contribute its
quota toward the material as well as
10 the spiritual prosperity of the coun
try: that thus the religious world may
conduce 10 the economic well being of
the land; in short, that the organized
forces of Christianity may cooperate
with the instrumentalities of material
progress 10 the benefit and mutual en-
richment of both.
This question confronts the skeptic:
Would the plutocrats who purvey the
money necessary to the erection of
The great churches be willing TO trans
plant their contributions for this pur.
pose to other fields of endeavor? II
is answered that they would not. They
are perhaps already rendering mater
ial assistance 10 various organized
charities and wish TO aid in other en-
terprises. such as the one which has
been mentioned. II is certain that they
would not contribute to charity the
sums that they are now consecrating
10 the building OF churches
