Methodist Church.


Methodist Church.
A large ohowd was drawn out to the
midweek prayer meeting OF the FIRST
Methodist Church last night when It
was learned that Rev. +. $. Onder.
donk, superintendent of all foreign
work in Texas. would preach
Rev. Onderdonk is one OF the most
interesting takers that has ever visit.
ed Bryan. and his knowledge OF the
foreigners In Texas makes him doubly
interesting.
He chose us his subject last night
Foreign Work OF the Churches" and
also spoke at length ON THE Unseli
ishness OF Prayer"
The Scripture lesson was taken
from Matthew. wfteenth chapter TWEEN
ty.hrst to twenty-elghth verses
He told of the failure OF the
churches to take care OF the 100000
Mexicans that are now In TEXAS. the
majority OF whom are naturalized
citizens, and are voting in the cleo
tions OF the State without the people
making an effort to give them com.
mon school education. This. he said
was more the work OF the churches
than OF the public. or the State
authorities. lie says the MeXicans
are not the only immigrants to this
country who are not being helped. but
that almost every race OF immigrants
are being done the same way
Rev. onderdonk has chosen as his
lite's work the task OF helping In Up.
lifting the foreigner In Texas. and the
statistics and facts told by him we're
somewhat appalling to those present
last night when they realized the IT..
tie work that the churches were doing
to help in this work.
Rev Onderdonk also spoke al
length of the unselhshness Of prayer
and many beautiful Illustrations were
brought out by him which we're ele.
waiting and uplifting to the entire con.
gregation.
Rev. onderdonk returned to his
home In San Antonio today.

The Vanished Immigrant.
IRON m, Springfield Republican,

(From IN, Springfield Republican,
With the drastic measures taken recently
by the British government to prevent the
emigration of British subjects of military
age, immigration into the United States re-
ceived it's final blow. In the year ended June
30. 1914, more than 100000 aliens came to
this country; but in the year ended June so
last the net increase of aliens only about
10000. In July, August and September Of
this year 5000 more aliens left us than came
to US; that is to say, VIC arc now losing
population TO Europe instead of gaining it.
Those who would come here if they could
arc being held back by force, and many
already here have returned, or are now re
turning, who arc under legal obligation as
reScrysts to serve in European armies.
There is nothing different to expect until
the war ends. and. meanwhile. unsklled labor
in the United States should have the oppor-
tunity Of generations to improve its eco
monte condition. Railroad laborers may yet
ride to their work in palace cars.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1915-12-21

oolitical or military purpose, but still IN
the mood and temper created by Bern
hardi and Treitschke, by Belgium, By
Louvain, by the Zeppelin raids in Britain,
by the Lusitania Massacre and by all
other manifestations Of German terrible
ress. They are fighting to punish, not be
cause they have a clear. definite pro-
eramme. They are still carried along by
the intense desire to kill Germans, and
by the belief that they can kill 50 many
Germans that no German will ever again
dare or care TO repeat the crimes of 1914.
Germany has been very largely cured
Of her madness, despite the Boosting OF
her public speakers. Her dream of world
power has vanished in thin air and her
people have suffered too terribly to have
illusions for many years to come. But
her people are not yet so weary that they
are prepared to give up German terri
tory to the foreigner, not even Alsace-
Lorraine, and they are correct in main
tanning. that there is no present reason In
the military situation why they should.
They may be correct in their belief that
the Allies will never be able to keep the
var going to the point where the German
people will abandon the Rhine district.
There will be no peace until the Allies
have conquered Germany, crushed her"
as the phrase is, or have tired of the enor
nous sacrifices the policy of crushing en-
tails. When they tire it will be the sim
plest thing in the world to make peace
terms, so far as France, Italy and Great
Britain are concerned. The war as far as
Belgium is concerned is over. Germany
has lost the war, as a whole, because she
went into the war determined to win Il
world supremacy, and she is coming out
of the war, at the very best, heavily bur-
dened with debt, leaving her great foes
unbeaten, leaving Great Britain, her chief
rival, organized for war on something
like a German basis, and having lost the
world markets in which she found her
greatest prosperity before the war.
Germany lost the war when Winston
Churchill modified the British fleet in
time and Joseph Joffre won the Battle Of
the Marine. But there will be no peace
Until the Allies discover that they cannot
crush Germany, or succeed in crushing
her. Their belief that they can crush
Der rests very largely on the mental con-
dition created by their passionate anger
at German atrocities in the opening days
Of the war, plus the programme of Ger
man megalomaniacs, academic and mill
tarstic. Europe cured France of the de-
fusion of world power, but she did not
crush France. 1t seems now highly UNI
likely that Germany can be crushed. But
this is not yet the view in London, Paris
or Petroprad
