UNION CHURCH;
UNION PASTOR

Organized labor fervently wishes
there were many more Methodist
preachers like Rev. Switzer, of the
Grace NJ. E. church, and hopes soon
there will be. No Everett minister
has ever been closer to nor more
respected by our people than the
pastor of the Riverside church.
Brother Switzer lost no time upon
coming to Everett in establishing a
close connection between his pastor
ate and the laboring element of the
city and has been as truly union
man" as though he carried a card in
his inside pocket. Whenever oppor-
tunity offered he has visited the
Trades Council and has shown in
many ways his desire to work with
the organized labor forces in the
struggle for social justice One year
ago he threw the doors of his church
open on Labor Sunday to our Labor
Day speaker and again this year will
have labor speaker in his church
the evening before Labor Day.
Grace M. E. church is not the rich
est in the land financially, the mem
bership being almost wholly COM
posed of laboring people. So things
have not been easy shedding finan-
cially. By dint of hard work and
much personal sacrifice the congre-
cation built the pretty little structure
on Summit and Twenty-fourth. Later
the matter of building the parsonage
came up and plans were drawn.
When actual construction work COM
menced the pastor and congregation
received one of those surprises which
happen once in a while and reflect
credit upon the big heartedness of the
givers. The union men of this city,
remembering and appreciating the
helpfulness and cooperation of the
pastor, determined to help build that
home. The carpenters, the painters,
the shinglers, the plasterers, sent
men from their organizations to do
the actual work. The plumbers, being
all busy, gave from their treasury to
help meet the cost of plumbing. The
ladies of the church fed the men each

noon and altogether it was a merry
lark From cellar to garret the par
sonage was builded by union men and
a little of the feeling of comradeship
in their bosoms went into every bit
of work.
Pastor Switzer and the members of
his church know that organized labor
stands for something besides hours
and wages and that something is
brotherhood. And organized labor
of Everett knows that there is one
preacher who has a large conception
of what true Christianity is, for the
Kingdom of Heaven is in the hearts
of men and he who would reach the
soul with a spiritual message must
enter into the material, every day
working life of men and women.
Rev. Switzer wants the union men
and woman of Everett to visit his
church occasionally Come and see
the parsonage built by union hands.
You're always welcome at the Grace
NJ. f. church.

acceptance of the position of superin-
tendent of streets and sewers of Sc
attic.
In his new position he has over 400
men employed in the construction
and maintenance of streets and
sewers. We note that, aided by his
recommendations laborers in his de-
partment are to receive an advance
of 25 cents per day beginning January
1, 1914, making their wage $500 per
day of eight hours.
AS superintendent of streets and
sewers and a member of the board of
public works, he is looked upon as
labor's representative in city matters
and has great opportunities to do for,
not only the employees of the depart
ment, but for every man, woman and
child in a great city, who are COM
PEELED to labor to live. Those who
have watched his career since COM
ing to the state, have no hesitancy
in proclaiming him an able, fearless
and tireless worker in the interests
of the common people.
He will deliver the Labor Day ad-
dress next Monday, Labor Day. He
has promised to refrain from speak
ing longer than thirty minutes;
agrees to make no charge for his ser
vices nor seek any injunction against
those holding views different from
his own.

A green country farmer from the
drought stricken prairies of the Da-
kotas, compelled to forsake his first
ove-farming-beca of inability to
raise wheat without moisture, sell
the shrunken crops at so cents or
less per bushel and live, landed in
Everett in January with a few car
penter's tools with which he had
aided in building farm buildings for
neighbors and sought employment at
the carpenter trade; studied carpen-
try and advanced rapidly in ability
until he was considered first class
mechanic, developed ability to lead
and direct others with the result
that his services were in demand as
foreman and superintendent of con-
struction work.
Quick to see the necessity of or
ganization of workingmen, he accepted
the first opportunity to join the Car
penters Union, became leader in
the organization of other crafts, the
formation of the Everett G.. L. c.,
B. T. C. and the Everett Labor Tenn

Generally the parents were di-

invariably the home was a place Of
diScord.
The Inference is ineScapable-
the children who come from happy
homes in which the father and
mother get along peaceably TO-
gether also behave themselves.
They are not juvenile criminals.
and so, fathers and mothers, if you
want your children to grow up into
being good men and women you
must give them the right sort of
start
This can only be done in a real
home. a home that is full Of peace
and love and good will. and where
there's Just one permanent father

Family Jars, " Too, Are
a Wrong Against the
Child.

To shake a child's faith in the
goodness Of its parents is to shake
its faith in everything that is fine
and noble. Yet how can YOU teach
q girl to he pure if it is matter
of public record that her mother
was light woman? How can you
teach a boy high ideals if his
mother divorced his father for base
conduct? 1t is of these things. and
not their own wrongs, that men
and women should think before
they break the marriage tie.
And it is not alone the husbands
and wives who get divorces that
wrong their children. Those cou-
pies who are continually quarrel
ing and pickering. who fash out
bitter tauntS and accusations
against each other in their chill
dreu's presence, are equally blame
worthy. They also sacrifice their
children on the altar of their tenn
perS.
Not long ago an officer in the
Childreu's Court in New York
made the statement that investi-
CATION showed that practically ev-
cry truant child and every juve-
nile criminal came from a home in
which there was domestic trouble.
