AWFUL VICE PROBLEM.

Anent the failure Of the numerous
commissions to eliminate vice from
our cities, the True Voice points out
that the root defect in the present
method of dealing with this terrible
condition is in the view that it is
primarily a social evil, for which
society as a whole is responsible.
The Fact tnat the vice of impurity is
a sin, for which the individual is
responsible, is left out of account.
Personal accountability for sin is
overlooked, and the blame is placed
upon conditions which are at most
an occasion of sin. No attempt is
made to reach the conscience of the
young or to instill a knowledge of
xreA-seeountability to God for every
word and action of life. Religion as
a factor for intoxicating right prin-
ciples of conduct and making for
right living is totally neglected by
the social uplifters" when it is not
openly scoffed at. Instead OF relig-
ion and the commandments OF God,
we have now sex hygiene" "eugen-
les" and vice commissions. These
are advocated as the means to re-
strain human passions and to purify
our cities. The "uplifters" would
have. medical instruction on sex
hygiene impaired to children in our
schools. They would familiarize
innocence with vice in order to
guard against the latter. What
supreme folly! They would corrupt
youth in order to save it! They
would teach the physical conse-
quences of vice with no reference to
the moral and spiritual ruin caused
by impurity! That is a social
evil" only, according to the new
teachingl Is it any wonder that vice
find plenty to do?
Religion is the only force that can
successfully cope with this awful
problem of vice. AS long as the con-
science of the individual is neglected |
so long can we expect vice to flour
ish. The morality which consists in
mere respectability, in not being
found out, can never be anything
more. than thin veneer. And sex
nygiene" and vice commissions can
never reach the heart of the
problem. The conscience of the in
iividual must be reached and influ-
need; and only religion can do that.
yice commissions can avail nothing
While irreligion flourishes.

INsTRuCTs MINISTER'S.

The evils of divorce are beginning
10 dawn upon the Presbyterians. The
four sectional divisions of that sect
have been holding a meeting at
Atlanta, and according to the press
dispatches an interesting feature OF
Saturdays proceedings was the
adoption by the Northern Assembly
of a resolution, presented by the
Committee on Christian Life and
Work, bearing directly upon the
divorce evil' and making recon-
mendations for the enactment OF
uniform legislation on marriage and
divorce. This resolution recon-
mends that the ministers and church
courts of the Northern Assembly
institute a campaign Of education
with the object of impressing upon
the people the sacredness of mar
rage and the evils of divorce, and
to arouse in the public mind a reali-
cation Of the need of reform. Minis
ters are urged to study the laws
touching these matters in the sew
eral States, looking toward the
introduction Of improved marriage
and divorce laws. This is a step in
Che right direction, and it may pos
sibly follow that the Presbyterians
will soon realize that only the
Catholic church holds the true
position on this all important ques-
ton and accept her lead.
