BY ERNEST o. SELLERS
Director of Sunday School Course

ITTOW can we reconcile the fact
II that Japanese baron, a de-
| voted follower of Confucius, is one
of the main promoters of the
Worlds Eighth Sunday School con-
vention to be held in Tokyo soon
after the close of the present world
I war. Baron Shibusawa, the 81.
Pierpont Morgan Of Japan" was
recently given dinner in Chicago
by some of the men who control
the destinies of the nation and the
occasion was entirely in the inter-
ests of the Sunday school move
ment. Neither wine nor tobacco was
in evidence President Judson of
Chicago university said Of his
friend, the baron: HE is our
friend; he is a man of education
and wealth which he is using for
his countrymen. He stands among
the finest flowers of Japanese civil
ization, and we, too, are his
friends" The Japanese emperor,
on his recent coronation day,
cabled to Baron Shibusawa in San
Francisco the comforting of the
highest order of his realm, THE
Order of the Rising Sum-" Speak
ing through an interpreter the
baron said that wealth for ones
own benefit is not good thing, but
is justified only when used to up
lift ones fellow men,. He spoke of
his own religion and what it meant
to him. He told how he had met
Christians in this country and in
his own land, natives and mission
aries, and had learned to hold them
in the highest esteem. He said
that for many years, in his latter
life, he had had a longing in his
heart for something that would
build up moral character among
the Japanese youth-a' Something"
which seemed to be lacking, and
that as he had gone through the
land he suddenly realized that the
Sunday schools in Japan were Sc
curing exactly the thing he had in
mind. IF this is what the Sunday
schools can accomplish" he said,
I'VE welcome you to Tokyo
Count Okuma, the premier, and
others prominent in the Sunflow
er kingdom, are uniting with the
Christian leaders of that land to
make this an epochal convention.
Already over $4,000 has been
pledged for the necessary expenses. /
1t would have been held, but for
the war, in October, 1916.

SOPHIE LYONS, ONCE "QUEEN OF CROOKS"
GIVES BULK OF HER THEFTS TO CHARITY

A lady resident of Detroit, known
as Mrs. Sophie Lyons, has just Of
Tered property to that city, worth
$4,000, for the purpose of establish
ing ZONE for retaining children
OF criminal tendencies. The amount
is almost one thirteenth of the lady's
entire fortune, every penny of which
she herself made, by thrift, frugal
lty, foresight and unremitting atten-
ton to business. The munificent
gift demonstrates conclusively that
business does not necessarily dry up
the springs of human kindness, or
render its devotees utterly callous.
MRS. Lyons had a hard struggle
from CHILDHOOD and those who knew
her best-in this instance, the police
would undoubtedly have described
her as a child of criminal tenden-
cies. Perhaps she is seeking to pre-
vent other children following in her
footsteps. but if she had not. herself
possessed these valuable criminal
tendencies she would not have had
the necessary wherewithal to donate
the $4,000 property to the city of
Detroit, to say nothing Of the other
100000 she still possesses: .
Her Many Episodes.
Sophie in her time was known as
the queen of Crooks" She is, or
was, a Jewess, and has been operat-
ing with thieves, swindlers, pickpock-
cts. confidence men and shoplifters
ever since the Civil War. Her last
husband-she had a plurality-is
now said to be in q prison in Sweden.
Mrs. Lyons took a decided pride in
her work, and though Lyons, her
first husband, was a skillful and no.
torious' thief, she refused to permit
him to support her in idleness. Dis
regarding his plea that he 'could
steal for two" she retained her in
dustr1ous habits, took part in scores
OF clever swindles, bank burglarizing,
shopllfting and pocket picking cpl
sodes, on one occasion clearing, with
her associates, a sum Of no less than
100000. After visiting Paris,
where she cleaned up some $200,000I
she retired to her luxurious country
home on Long Island, to- enjoy the
comforts of her hard-earned compe-
tence. In all her career she had
done but few short terms in Sing
sing and other prisons. Her last ex-
ploit-1s96-was a little shoplifting
probably an atavistic whim-in a

plety ind religion, and brought up
several daughters in conventionally
religious atmosphere.
Thus we see from the life of Mrs.
Lyons how industry and persever-
ance is rewarded.
How She Could Have Lived.
She might have learned an hon.
est living" in East Side sweatshop
and died of tuberculosis in a few
years, or gone on strike with other
lady garment workers and had her
head dubbed off by a policeman, but
she wisely chose the better part, and
is now a semi-millionairess, with
money for a charitable and devout
purpose. She is living example of
the truths-unpleasant ones, though
still truths-that the clever Bernard
Shaw puts into the mouth of his
Mrs. Warren"
AS for her .philanthropic propen-
sites, we need only say that she has
given her mite, not all she had, but
as much as she could afford; more
in proportion than ever a Rockefeller
or Carnegie gave, and with no greater
':taint" either.
We. however, do not recommend
her as an example to be followed.
We leave that sort of thing to the
defenders of the present system; to
such people as Rockefeller's pastor,
for example. They could do it log
icalg, too, if they were only honest

WHY WHITE MEN Do

Union Sailor Tells Why They
Have Been Driven From

VANCOUVER, British Columbia,
Feb. PA local newspaper bemoans
the fact that it is problem to find
sailors for Canadian vessels. Bust
ness Agent Burns of the Sailors
union makes this reply in the British
Federa1ionist:

why? Because the sailor no
longer wishes to be a slave. He wants
to be as his fellow men ashore, free
to quit his job if he does not like it;
to be able to earn wage that will
keep him in the necessaries of life,
and to have decent place to live in.
ANY seamon will tell you which
he would sooner go in. sail or steam.
The answer would usually be steam.
His wages are usually little higher
and the work a little easier. It is
usually through force of circum-
stances that they go in sailing ships
and he stays no longer than he can
help.
W. ndSC SCtllOIS homes ana
churches and everything else to look
after his spiritual welfare, but
nothing is ever though of for his
comfort while on earth. Give the
sailor the same freedom as his fellow
men enjoys.
THE United States has taken the
first step in that direction, by pass
ing and placing on the statute books
a law declaring all men who sail on
united States ships free men and Civ
