Rev. Henry l. Davis in Sermon
at First Methodist Church
Sunday Night Treats on
Question of Unemployed.

The problem Of the unemployed. its
causes and possible solutions formed
the theme OF the sermon delivered
sunday at the First Methodist
church by Rev. Henry L. Davis. DE
spoke as follows:
The subject OF The Unemployed
may not appeal 10 many. Some say
men are unemployed because they are
unwilling TO work. Such a reason Is
cruel and heartless. That may be
said OF some, but certainly it cannot
be said concerning the great majority
Of men out OF work in America. An
other says, IT is but q result of our
civilization. II is but the ineVita bic
outcome OF the present structure OF
society that some should be made the
sufferers and woe is that man who
must suffer the offense. II it is the
result OF our social construction, then
society needs reconstruction and IL is
for those of us who are receiving the
benefits Of society TO so adjust it that
those OF our fellows may participate
in its blessings as well as ourselves.
Still another says this question is not
one for the church and the pulpit. lU
is for the sOciolOgist and political
economist Let the pulpit continue
it's message Of individual and not OF
social salvation. Let il proclaim the
love of God and not give forth preach
ments concerning the ameliOration OF
human ills But the program of
Christianity which Jesus announced in
his first sermon at Nazareth was
largely q social program. He said,
The spirit Of the Lord is upon me
because he hath Amounted me TO
preach the gospel to the poor; TO
bind up the brOken-hearted: TO preach
deliverance unto captives and recOv-
ering Of the sight TO the blind and TO
break every yoke

OF religion does not include the prob

Fourth, the plans which have been
tried in the old country of insuring
men against idleness is impractica BILE
such insurance can only protect
against bare starvation and cannot re-
lieve the nation of the awful conse-
quences of hundreds Of thousands Of
men living month after month in idle
ness.
Back to the land.
Fifth there is a cry back to the
land as another cure for idleness that
stalks chiefly through our greater
cities. When Germany came face to
face with war and saw that thousands
of her men would be thrown out OF
the industries in idlenesS, Aug. Is,
she organized a central federation OF
unemployment. BY this II, 600 in
dustrial workers were sent to the
farms to engage in agriculture while
other thousands were sent to manu-
facturers where arms were made. II
is plain to see how a back to the land
movement in Germany during war
could be made successful that might
fail in times of peace. There would
by imports having been shut off &
large demand for home farm pro
ducts. This would pay. And while
much is TO be said in favor of the
back to land movement let US not
deceive ourselves into the thought
that it will solve in any large measure
the problem before US.
New York's committee on the con-
jestiOn Of the city, Aug. Z, 1912, wrote
to the House of Governors in effect
that even the most enthusiastic sup
porter Of the plan TO distribute the
population by reviving interest in
farming would admit its failure. And
the committee appealed to the states
and federal government to undertake
In for ,~fc 70
the government gave away several
million farms, 5000, 600 acres, and
the people rushed to the farms for
| so years, taking up $4,000 acres a
day for that time. yet the city in
crease was more than twice as rapid
as that Of the country, in fact it slim
ulated city building and seemed TO
create the city problems on a larger
scale than we had ever experienced
them.
Another Danger.
"Can we not see that an agricultural
| over production will bring hard
times as we'll as industrial over pro-
duction? Under the homestead act of

BOIL iNEEVIL FOUND
IN CHESTER COUNTY
j. w. Wilson Finds Pest on His Plan.
tatiOn-SeVeral Acres of Cotton
Ruined.

Chester, Nov. Isl. W. Wilson o.
Hazlewood township told taday of
the appearance in his section of the
boil weevil Mr.. Wilson is one
of the county's we'll known planters
and is familiar with the appearance
of the boil weevil by having seen
some of the insects that were brought
here a few years ago. from Texas,
and is of the opinon that the insects
that bored into his cotton bolls and
acted in the way the weevil is said
to do are without doubt boil weevil.
This summer Mr. Wilson had some
additional boil weevil sent here from
places troubled with boil weevil. They
were sent in glass bottles. Mr. Will
son took these boil weevlis and put
them beside those that he had on
his farm and they were the same.
He thinks that they came here in
seed shipped from the boil weevil
sections At least that is the only
way that he can account for their
appearance on his farm. He had
several acres of cotton ruined.
