The production of coal in Alaska in 1912, as stated by E. W. Parker, of the United States geological survey, was S55 tons. valued at $2.s40. a decrease from 900 tons. valued at $7,2oo, in 1911. The production in 1912 does not in- cIude the coal mined under the direc- tiohs of the United States Bureau of Mines for testing purposes. which amounted to 800 tons. but of course no commercial value can be placed upon this coal. A little coal was mined in Alaska prior to 1884 by the crews of vessels that ran short of fuel, but this probably did not aggregate more than few hundred tons. The total output of coal prior to 1889. including that mined by the Russians. was probably less than 10000 tons.

ellis suggestions how churches and labor
can cooperate.
The councils most active work for la
every seven for every workingman. Every
state has now it's committee on this ques-
ton, and these committees are co-operat-
ing with the American Association for

AS result of this agitation a num-
Der of states have passed laws securing

working at state capitols among legisla-
tors and throughout the country to edu-
cate the people to a right understanding
Of labor problems.
Topics suggested by the council for SER
mons and addresses on Labor Sunday
this year are: Present Tendencies of the
Labor Movement" The Industrial Work
ers OF the World and Labor Unionism"
and Labor Conditions as We Find Them
in Our CITY"
The council reports that labor organi-
cations are, in larger numbers than last
year. cooperating with the churches In

HE final proof of Christianity is
~ Christians. 1t makes men of those
qualities of character which have come
to be designated by the word Christian"
As we may fairly judge Buddhism by
Buddhists, Confuciansm by Confucian-
lists and Mohammedanism by Moslens, so
we may test Christianity by its Chris
t1ans. That proposition opens UP to us a
vista of the noble men and women we
have known; the holy mothers and strong
fathers; the persons who have won to
greatness Of character and service be-
cause of their religion. The unselfish and
helpful folk whom we call to mind are
legion. We recall, too, that the persons
among our acquaintance who have stood
for the highest ideals of refinement and
culture and citizenship have been Chris
tians. We see the benevolent institu-
tons of our time kept going by Chris
tians. The new passion for social justice
and wellbeing had it's first prophets in
the church, and today draws it's principal
support therefrom So, in spite of many
of us who have come far short of our
Christian vision, we may fairly rest the
case of Christianity on it's finished prod
uct-Christians.

would not change His purpose because
some one asked Him.
True, God would not change His pur-
pose, but it is His purpose to answer
prayer or He would not have commanded
men to pray. If prayers be Intellectual
why should 1t be written in His word,
IF any man lack wisdom let him ask
Of God, who giveth to all men literally.
and upbraideth not. and it shall be
given him. and why should the Apostle
John say. This Is the confidence we
have in Him. that if we ask anything ac-
cording to His will He heareth us; and
If we know that He hear us, whatso-
ever we ask. we know that we have the
petitions that we desired of Him.
l believe with Tennyson that:
More things are wrought by prayer
Than this world dreams Of. wherefore let thy
voice
Rise like a fountain for me night and day
For what are men better than sheep goats
That nonrish blind life within the BRAIN
II, knowing God. they lift not hands of prayer
Both for themselves and those who call them
friend?
For the whole round world Is every way
Bound by gold chains about the feet Of God.
