Home Discipline.
st. Helena Echo.

We do not agree with the Evan
gelist Billy Sunday in ell be says
and does. yet be says some very
pointed and fine things. A case
in point 10 what he said 10 a re-
cent address about discipline in
tho home:
"That parent who is afraid to
correct bis child may be cOmpsll-
cd to 500 state correct him in some
institution. You may SEQ him
yapked from your arms because
you are dsrslict in your duty.
Anarchy lie not born in the
anarchistic riots Of the Hsymsrk-
ct. It 10 kindled in tho home.
What tho child 10 in the home, be
will be in the streets and in pub
lie. Hear me! Millions of farm
srs in this country are being
taught how to take care of the
hog, what slop to feed him. how
to feed him to add q few extra
pounds to his flesh and an extra
curl to bis tail. And we have got
in this country twenty-thrse uni
versitiss that have q department
for tho study of tho American hog,
aud only one university that has
q department for tho study of the
American boy, and that is Clark
University at Worcester, Mass.
In other words, W. think more of
stopping and feeding the hog than
of feeding aud training the boy
and keeping him out Of bell. We
are going daffy over money; We
are commercially crazy.
IF boy will not obey bis ia
thsr and mother be will not obey
the social and moral law. If he
WON'T obey you in your home, it is
out of such that anarchists, bomb
throwsrs and cut throwsrs are
had"

should be done by individuals, for
the good Of the common welfare.
Preferably it should be done by
laymen, but or occasion the min
istry may well serve for time
This need not interfere with SER
vice to the institution and its mem
bers, and the church that does not
recognize the value of the oppor-
tunity to loan its minister is short
sighted indeed.
The minister OF any church is
open 20 criticism to-day. If the
church is small. the members ex-
pect a degree of attention out Of
all proportion to the salary they
pay They do not give a thought
to his larger ministry, nor do they
let him give it thought II the
church is large, they expect hin

New-York tribune., 1915-03-28

The minister OF to-day often
knows a great deal about practical
affairs. He is not interested IN creed
SO much as IN deed. But If he has
only visions to supply, the world
needs these in It's political market
place. The minister Is the natural
leader toward the better and the
best, because he has these visions.
1t is the function of the layman TO
steady them and give them practical
force. The community should re
spond 10 his leadership, not by
scorniug him and defeating him. but
by rallying around him and supply
ing him with the expert assistance
which his work demands. Last Of all
should the Church which finds its
one possible excuse for living in the
fact that II is organized TO bring
the kingdom Of heaven 90 earth, last
Of all should the Church Of Jesus
who poured out his life for men and
among mon. last of all should the
modern Church, which is perishng
for lack Of an intelligent pro-
gramme, turn from such leadership
and cry cruelty him"
Lest the outside world may mis-
take these words for "A personal pro
test, or some politicians may take u
for a signal for renewed activities
within the walls Of my church,
may say that ! am quite satisfied
with tha remarkable change that has
taken place IN the sentiment OF the
members this year. Evidently the
finances are not disturbed by politi-
cal threats OF dire Withdrawals, nor
have the congregations suffered
noticeably. The Church is a power
in the community to-day. and is
making itself felt through the State.
| am sure that personally have
more friends in Greenwich and out
side than ! had a year ago. Ny
salary has been raised. nave no

Last of all ! want 10 say 10 the
Church people Of Greenwich that !
expect good strong vote from you
on Election Day. II do not get 10
! shall be disappointed IN you. You
owe yourselves better things Some
OF YOU should talk for me, and work
