NEW HAVEN, May 27.-Former
President Taft delivered his first lee
ture yesterday at Yale on the gent

short sighted policy of the United

Poultney Bigelow, whom he charged
with making false statements regard

1.-The policy of this country seems

sneer in movement to abolish we'd
ding fees everywhere.
But don't rush all at once to Oak
Park to get married. For the Rev.
Mr.. Pennewell win ,marry no clippers
and no couples that he knows moth
ing about. Moreover, he is likely to
ask such embarrassing questions as
these:
Glow is your moral and physical
health?"
rt'Have you a doctors certificate
guaranteeing your physical fitness for
wedlock?"
And If you can't satisfy the pas
tor on that score the wedding bells
of his church won't ring for you.
The Rev. Pennewell is very much
in earnest about these matters.
THE purity and dignity of the in
stitution of marriage are threatened
by the present system he says
1.-The pastor who accepts wedding
fee is grating. 1t has always been
distasteful to me and I've decided to
stop it. l have just told my congre
cation so and they seem to like the
idea.
"Other ministers, though, don't take
to it readily / haven't been able, so
far, to persuade any of them to join
me in this reform. Some preachers
even try to drum up trade by en-
couraging engaged people to come to
them for the wedding ceremony and
by having licensed clerks, ETC.. steer
couples to them.
IF the church proposes to regard
the marriage rite as religious func-
tion peculiarly its own. 1t must make
the rite free to all to preserve the
self-respect of the ministry and dig
Nifty the rite itself
.'It should be as much the minis
ter's duty to perform marriage cere-
monies as to visit the sick, conduct
prayer services. perform baptisms and
preach at funerals.
mo minister should accept fee
for any of these services. If he
doesn't need 1t he should be ashamed
to take it, and If his salary isn't big
enough for him to live on without
such graft his congregation should be
ashamed and make it adequate
Everything savoring of the COM
mercial spirit must be removed from
ING IL VIC WOdio
have 1t attain the proper dignity and
solemnity. And when parties to a
marriage feel that the minister is
present solely as the representative
of the most high God the ceremony
will be more sacred than If the BRIDE
groom is thinking of the greenback
in his vest pocket"
The pastor is also a pioneer in his
community in his efforts to insure
the moral and physical fitness of
brides and grooms. He declares posi-
lively that. while he will marry peo-
pie free of charge. he must be sat
isf1ed, in every case, that they are
free from disease or faint that should
bar them from wedlock.
He has also written a new marriage
ritual that he will use hereafter for
his tipless, hygienic weddings. 1t is
simple, straightforward and dignified
and expresses divine approval of the
union based on such moral and physi-
cal health.

FINAL CONFERENCE AT
WHARTON MAY END STRIKE

WHARTON, N. j.. May 27.-At a
final conference today between the
Empire Steel and Iron Company off,
Gals and representatives of the strik-
ing miners, it is expected that the last
difficulties standing in the way of a
settlement will be adjusted. The COM
pany, 1t is understood, has agreed to
grant the demands of the men, but
there is said to have been hitch over
the strikers demand that the men
who had remained loyal to the COM
pany and had kept at work should be
discharged.
The company's representatives in
sisted that they had promised these
men steady employment and they in
tended to keep their faith. v
The company is said to be willing to
grant the other demands, including a
90 pen cent increase in wages, shorter
hours, three shifts and recognition of
the union. 1t is possible that the nom
union men now working may be taken
into the union, thus ending the diff
culties.
