ohly come a purer and loftier min
istry.
The church is censured for It's dog,
mas, for its creeds, for its machinery
for it's need of support. Men grudge
it the pittance that it receives,
while human trusts grow soggy with
wealth Even the fiction writers con-
celve fictitious conditions in which
j, is better to come out and escape
the so-called shackles of the church.
And church members read this
tommyrot and applaud it.
The church is blamed for the inner
lives of its members: while in the
very nature Of the case the human
, government cannot be responsible
The church takes members, not on
heart inspection, not on human
recommendation, not on community
standing, not on wealth or family,
but solely on personal confession;
and the conscience of each in it's in
ner life is answerable only to God.
Thus the fires burn in the public
mind against the church, but like the
persecution of old, they will but
burn up the druss. and leave the
precious metal but purer and more
valuable than before. Criticism
cannot kill the church so long as
God shall live.
The Only Agency of Salvation
AS matter of fact the church is
the only agency of salvation. Cannot
] live right out of the church? do
not know you? | live as we'll
as some church members. But do
YOU live right? Maybe the church
could help you.
There are innumerable agencies
working for reformation, but moth
ing but the church Offering saliva
i, tion. Many fraternities claim to be
as good rs the church, if their men,
hers I've UP to the fraternity ideals.
And the fraternities got their ideals
from thu word of God They took
{ he moral standard, but they left the
change of heart that must follow
the tandard. The church alone
breaches regeneration and a change
of heart. Many people outside of
the church are ministering to the
body; but | never yet heard of one
that was preaching a change of
heart; never heard of one outside
OF the church who got up a revival;
never heard of one outside of the
church that brought comfort to the
dying; | never heard of one outside
of the church that offered consola-
tion to the broken hearted and be-
reaued. Many agencies are workin.
for extensive morals; but the church
stands trirmphantly alone in labor
ing for intensive righteousness.

TT Is unfortunate that Judge learned in
i the law should attempt to hold up to the
ridicule of the community the Director of
Public Safety, confidence in whom is a pre-
requisite to efficient work by the police of the
city.
The trouble seems to be that the Director
has too much documentary evidence. He has
repeatedly substantiated his specific attacks
on the laxness of some of the minor courts
by citing the record. He has been able to
show lamentable miscarriages of justice
through the device of the suspended sem
tence Yesterday, too, he brought forward
the case of a man who, 1t appears, con-
fessed that he was guilty of arson on eight
different occasions, and yet was sentenced
merely to the House of Correction and for
one year only. The essence of discipline is
the certainty of punishment. Let criminals
once get the idea that they can beg off and
there can be no limit to their depredations.
Judge Sulzberger need not expect either
the Superior the Supreme Court to review
his Judgment of the Director. 1t is not Off
Cial and it is not regular Besides, a Judge
who has lost his temper does not wish to be
reminded of 1t.
