What New Work Should Our So
ciety Undertake ?" - Exodus IA:
Sis.
Old Athens was in the newest
mode. The people spent their time
in nothing else than either to hear
or to see some new thing. Novelty
is the keynote of modern life. We
change our fashions of dress several
times a year. Myriads are in a per-
petual search for some untried pleas
ure. Whoever can give the world a
new sensation is sure of fortune
Something different is called for in
every department of life, religion not
excepted. The latest fad in faiths is
sure of following. Frankly, all this
is perilous and most of it is bad. Prog
ress and change we must have, but not
at the expense of the things which
should abide. The old paths have
been tested, and we know where they
lead: let us not be too quick to de-
sert them for untried ways into the
wilderness. Before young peoples
society gets excited over new work,
let it consider whether it is efficient
in the old. old ways of testimony,
prayer, Bible study and practical en-
deavor.
The danger of the old is that it
may be mechanically or perfunctorily
uohc' the udnger OF tne new IS tnaI
1t may not be worth doing.
A first work for a young peoples
society is to secure the enrolment of
every young person in the congregation
In It's membership. This steady, sys-
tematic, unflagging search for recruits
is the very life blood of Christian En-
deavor. One of the best of new works
is more new members
An old-fashioned plan that may
even be novelty to some Christian
Endeavor societies is for the officers
to make formal proffer of the society
services to the pastor, for any work
that he may indicate. Fundamentally,
the society is for the church," and it
should be also in the church and I'M
der the church and of the church.

PARTNER OF UNCLE SAM. - !
made my acquaintance with Uncle
Sam in the year 1880, and l liked the
idea Of AmeriCanism, the business
Uncle Sam was engaged in. My
highest ideal was to become a part
ner with Uncle Sam, but he said:
Have patience and wait five years.
The present war in Europe, with
its poisonous vapOr, Obscures the
pure air of Uncle Sans abode. The
laundering cannOns not only de-
strOyed EUrOpe's civilization, but also
shattered the best minds of the
world, Uncle Sans included. And
so we can hear him talk things out
of his head. He is in delirium. He
suffers from scare-fever. All you
can hear him say is: Army! Navy"
Preparedness
His deliriUm comes from his stOm-
ach. He had a consultation Of the
two best physicians in the country,
DR.. Reason and DR.. Common Sense,
and they declared that he suffers
from dyspepsia.
Since the European war began
Uncle Sam has swallowed too great
a quantity of gold and that affected
his brain.
Just take a good look at him and
see what a change his body has as
sumed. Why, he is almost unrecOg-
nizable! His stomach has fattened
clumsily and his motions are slow.
Uncle Sam has been swallowing
gold lately by the bushel. It is no
wonder that he is in constant fear
that some one may punch him. All
this trouble emanates from his bad
children, who parade the country I'M

CRITICISM AND ACTION.-It is
indeed amazing to see contributors
Of The Forum continually decry con-
ditiOns and the rottenness of the sys-
TEN and yet take no active steps to
ameIOrate conditions. A number Of
these contributors blame all the evils
on to lack of education, the impOssi-
bility to acquire an education and
the kind Of education handed out to
US by the censored and politically
controlled schools. Some even go
as far as roasting the liver out Of
Jacob Loeb as the Machiaveli Of
Chicago schools.
am sure it is quite weIl-knOwn to
the readers Of The Day Book that a
real Workers Institute has been
launched and is successfully eXerCis-
ing its functions in Chicago.
This institute is no longer an eX-
pertinent, and is not merely a pro-
test against the Loeb idea of educa-
ton, but is the only real remedy to
do away in the simplest manner with
the atrocities Of our pOlitically-cOn-
trOIled educational institutions. It
puts the question of education into
the hands of the workers themselves,
without taking orders from philan-
thrOpists and Big Biz.
The institute needs men who can
not only roast Loeb, but can come
and help with their suggestions to
build the institute, which is evidently
a sore spot to Loeb.
What good does it do to shoot po-
Hshed phrases in the air if they miss
the target? Action is what counts.
Let the workers establish and attend
their own schools and there will be
no need for LOebs,-Daniel A. Uretz,-
