fered:

Commerce is an organization to pro

" JESUS BABES
Sermon SUBJECT
BY DIR. SCUDDER

All persons interested in prison re.
form have watched with great interest
the efforts made by the political OPP.
ponents of Thomas Mott Osborne to
discredit his splendid work in the
transformation of Sing Sing prison.
1t is matter for great congratulation
that he has been so triumphantly vim
dictated in the first suit brought
against him. IT
Recognizing the widespread enthus-
iasm awakened all over the country
by the work of Mr.. Osborne, the heads
of the prison reform movement have
asked that every minister make ref
erence to this great cause in his pull
pit on Sunday, April 9. DR.. Doremus
Scudder is very glad to accede to this
request. and doubly SO since the
course of sermons which he is Civ
ing every Sunday morning at Central
Union church naturally points to such
a theme. The general course is en-
titled Jesus Father and the sub
title of Sundays sermon is His
Babes" All students of social reform
in addition to the usual sermon-tasters
are cordially invited to hear this
address, which will be given at II

CHRIST'S ideal
FOR SOCIETY TO
BE sermon TOPIC
Rev. A. A. EbersoIe Will Give
Second of His Series of
Talks Tomorrow

Rev. A. A. Ebersole tomorrow will
give the second sermon in the new
series of Sunday evening talks at Cen
tral Union church under the general
title, Christ and HHmanity's PROB
lens" George Andrus will conduct
the usual song service. -*
Jesus has often been claimed by re-
form parties as a radical in his social
and political views. In this address
tomorrow evening Mr. Ebersole will
try to show on the one hand that
Jesus was neither social or political
reformer in the modern sense of that
word. His primary aim seemed TO ba
to lift the individual out of his selfish
interests into a brotherly relation
with ali with whom He had to do.
A superficial study of His teachings
might convey the idea that He was an
extreme individualist, but this is far
from the truth. The individual is His
primary concern, but the OUTSTANDING
feature of Jesus social doctrine is
that the individual comes to his high
est development only when taking his
rightful place in society.
The other point which is just as i'm
portant is that Jesus did have very
definite ideal for society. 1t was no
mere vague dream that He enter
tanned. A careful study of his various
teachings regarding the new social
order which He came to establish
brings out definitely the conditions
which he hoped and believed would
be realized.
just week ago DR.. Scudder out
lined very fully the transformation
which has taken place in society since
the time of Christ, so Mr. Ebersole in
his address will attempt to show the
applicability of these social principles
which Jesus enunciated 1900 years ago
to the present day social problems.

to remove the causes of distress.
Iwilei has been death-trap to many
of our people. The tenement houses
have been veritable criminal-breeding
holes. But it must always be borne
in mind that the appalling fact that
the Filipinos head the list of prison.
ers in our jail is not condemnation
lin toto" of the people to whom this
pertains, but II only indicates that
they come from unfortunate condi.
tions, and that the regenerative forces
have not yet had the chance to work.
We are thankful to the Sugar Plant
ers' Association, the Associated Chari-
ties, the Filipino Y. M. G. A. and the
different persons who have been help
ing us to solve our problems. Their
hearty cooperation has been a great
relief to our people. We look upon
the public to help us and change the
Filipino immigrant into virtuous.
law-abiding, and self-supporting citi-
zen. 4@
And when all these regeneratiye
forces have had a chance to work, we
may witness one of those wonderful
which almost make
us believe in a social science, that a
man is the product OF his environment.

MAN MERELY PRODUCT OF HIS
ENVIRONMENT, SAYS RAMIREZ
Pastor of Filipino Mission Gives
Outline of Work Being Done
..a.. in This City 1.
BY REV. c. c. RAMIREZ.

To build up a mission among 500 or
more filipinos, who speak different
languages, such as the Tagalog, Cebu-
ano ilongo, Pampango and Ilokano;
and who are thrown in the midst of
this most cosmopolitan city, and who
constantly come in and 90 out of the
city, is not an easy task
The missionary who goes to the
Philippines works among people who
speak just one distinct language, and
among PEOPLE where the atmosphere
and environment are distinctly ma
tive. Here you have a world atmos-
phere; the Filipinos come face to face
with the world, and you therefore face
different problems-world problems.
A perfect man in a perfect society
is the two-fold end of Christianity.
We are called TO convert man and we
are called at the same time and with
equal authority to furnish them a
Christian society to live in after they
are converted. II is idle and even
cruel for us to cry Repent" unless
we can truly say at the same time,
1.-The kingdom of heaven is at hand"
Then shall the King say unto them
on his right hand, Come We blessed of
MY Father, inherit the kingdom pre-
pared for you from the foundation of
the world: for / was hungry and We
gave Me to eat; | WIS thirsty, and We
gave Me drink; | was a stranger and
We took Me in; naked and We clothed
Me; / was sick and We visited me;
was in prison and We came unto Me.
Then shall the righteous answer Him
saying: Lord, when saw we Thee hun
cry, and fed Thee? or athirst, and
gave Thee drink? And when saw we
Thee a stranger and took Thee in? or
naked, and clothed Thee? And when
saw we Thee sick and came unto
Thee? And the King shall answer and
say unto them, Verify | say unto you,
Inasmuch as We did it unto one OF
these my brethren, even these least,
We did il unto Me"
This, then, is the keynote of our
mission work. The situation implies
poverty on the part of the people.
II is possible to be poor and still re-
tain the elements which make for a.
better manhood and womanhood, but
poverty is a positive condition bred by
neglect, ignorance, and greed for gain.
Among the chief causes of poverty are
sickness, low wages, ignorance, in
competence, overcrowding, unemploy-
ment. friendle Ssness, desertion and
vice. And the new conception of char
ity work is lii I. we are not only to
help those in distress, but that we are
