MACHINE INDUSTRY
BY H. Addington Bruce

u YER since the invention of the steam
n engine changed the industrial system
from one of cottage to factory pro-
duction, there has been an cutlery against
machine industrialism in its effect on the
lives of the workers. In especial it has been
charged that machinery has robbed the work
of of life's greatest satisfactions, the
consciousness of creative activity.
With the passage Of time and the multi
plying of inventions permitted ever greater
specialization of labor, this charge has been
intensified. Today it is vehemently alleged
that the factory system has become positive
ly soul killing" in the monotony of the rOu-
tine imposed on all who labor at machines
And unQuestionably it is not good for
man to be obliged day after day, to do
wholly mechanical lasts, and those tasks Of
a narrowly limited sort--as in the shaping
of heels for shoes, or the making of some
small part of an automobile. UnQuestion-
ably this sort of thing is not merely mo-
nOtOnOus but impels to depression and dis
content, through its blocking of the urge to
a satisfying self-eXpressiOn.
Yet it is too generally forgotten that with
the increasing application of machinery to
industry there has been a progressive short
ening of the working day: Except in partic-
ular industries men no longer have to toll
long hours daily. Inc great mass or work
ers have more leisure-more time to them
selves-than in the days Of cottage produc-
ton.
AS English commentator on the rae
tory system has truly said:
when the workers trick at his machine
is over he is free. He need carry no burden
of responsibility home with him. He has
fairly earned his leisure, and can employ it
how he will"
If he employ it unwsely, If he regard it
as simply so much time to be "ktlled
pending his return to his machine then in
deed the gaining of increased leisure at the
cost of purely mechanical uninspiring labor
will avail him nothing. But what If he use
some part of his larger leisure for the pur
suit of a hobby which will give him the sat
lsfactiOn his routine work fails to give?
That, in a few words, is the one sure way
out" for the machine worker.
He cannot emancipate himself by the
wholesale smashing of machinery and a COM
pulsOry re-establishing of the cottage system.
This is manifestly impossible, and even were
it possible all society, including the worker
himself, would suffer incalculaby as result
of diminished output and consequent rise in
the cost Of living.
No. machinery is here to stay, and to
play an ever greater part in the life of the
world. The problem is not it's abolition but
its mitigation, and machinery itself holds the
solution of this problem in the increased
leisure it provides.
Enlightened labor leaders as we'll as en-
1ightened employers appreciate this.
More and more emphattcaIy the gospel OF
the wise use Of leisure Is being preached by

degree stipulate local provision for physical
education, yet the facts are that today not
more than II per cent of the school children
OF the nation are receiving this fundamental
training.
There is an emphatic necessity that the
federal government act promptly and intelli-
gently to cooperate with the states to pro-
mote physical education.
In the recent war more than a million re-
cruits, in the prime of life, were found not
quail flied for full military service and many
of these men were obliged to spend weeks in
training camps in order to get the preim-
mary physical training.
There should be some comprehensive ma
tional scheme of physical culture not only
for the purpose of efficiency but of national
defense.
The real walls that protect a nation are
the flesh and blood of its manhood.
The American Legion is wisely urging
congress to determine the method of attack
ing this problem. This organization suggests
the following steps to be taken:
First: Every schoOlrOom teacher should
be trained so that she can give proper physi-
cal culture.
Second: A sufficient number of special
teachers in physical education should be sup
piled to supervise this work.
Third: Adequate indoor and outdoor space
and simple equipment should be supplied
Besides this the federal government should
aid the states by making available the best
up-to-date Information and advice upon the
sub ject

SENSELESS AND SINFUL SENSATION
ATJSM
BY BISHOP w,

a NEWS dispatch from New York, which
~ appeared recently, read follows:
"Tom-toms Numbered and great
bowls of incense sent a gray film of smoke
through the rainbow-tinted church. while the
rector, Rev. Norman Guthrie, invoked the
gods of the Indians. Weird Indian music
was played and cabalistic accomplishments
We're used to interpret Indian dances. The
church was St. Marks in the Bouwerie. The
service was started by the invocation of the
Holy visions from Hako. Then came a re-
sponSfVe reading from an Omaha ritual, fol-
lowed by a chOir-anthem from the Pawnee
ceremony in which the thin wall of an In
dian chant conjured up campfire rites"
When the church, in which this prOfane
performance was exhibited, was dedicated, a
prayer was made in which this pious petition
was made: ''Vouchsafe, O Lord to be pres
ent with us, who are here gathered together
with all humility and readiness of heart, to
cOnsecrate this place to the honor of thy
great Name; separating it henceforth from
all unhallOWed, ordinary and common uses,
and dedicating it to thy service, for reading
thy holy Word, for celebrating thy holy Sac
rament, for offerings to thy glorious Majesty
the sacrifices of prayer and Thanksgiving, for
blessing thy people in thy Name and for
all other holy purposes"
The pagan spectacle, described in the press
dispatch quoted, was the notification of this
prayer of conservation and the negation of
every part of the ritual of the Episcopal
churches. 1t was a perYerse and impious
use of the building in which it was produced
and it was utterly foreign and antagonsttc
to the holy uses to which the house had been
solemnly set apart. Sensible and devout peo-
pie everywhere, who read the account of the
performance, will deplOre and condemn it as
gross PROCLAMATION of a place of worship.
Unfortunately it does not stand alone al
though it is peculiar type of the profana-
ton Of churches which in various forms is
all too prevalent in our day. Many others
though they do it in different ways
There has entered the minds of many, in
Guiding not a few ministers, a false concep-
ton of the nature of the church and by
consequence they hold erroneous notions
concerning the methods which are fitting for
promoting its success. The idea common to
many such persons is that the church does
not differ much from a commercial enterprise
or a fraternal order.

OLD-TINE RELIGION
A. GAMBLER

Hence, there is mania for drawing
crowds into the house of God by any and all
methods, both proper and improper, A de-
mand is widespread for preachers who can
draw" and for attractive programs" Sen
sational sermonizing and forms of unwor-
shipful music are employed to collect crowds,
special appeals being made to catch the ears
of whimsical and worldly young people.
Shows are offered to substitute nearly as
possible on Sundays the scenes enacted in
the theaters and playhouses on weekdays.
The churches and preachers who adopt these
meretriciOus methods are in the market place
piping for dancers and lamenting for mourn
ers-doing anything in fact to get gaping
crowds to patroniZe them. Worshiping con-
gregations are thereby displaced to make
way for aggregations of Wondermongers and
seekers of SenSatiOnaliSm.
But pray tell us what is the use of draw
ing people into the churches if what is said
and done before them in the churches de-
feats the only object for which the churches
exist? Is it possible that the desire to Sc
cure money to maintain the profaned estab-
l1shments, and to pay the salaries of the pull
pit takers (miscalled preachers) who serve
them, is the motive from which these evil
proceedings arise? If so, what shall be said
of reducing church of God, founded for
seeking and saving the lost, to the level of
caterer or an entertainer seeking profitable
customers?
Does the Lord Jesus Christ, who drove
the traders and money changers from the
Temple of Jerusalem, look with less indigna-
ton upon such things in places of worship
today?
Let us recall the significant record of that
retrospective incident: and the Jews pass
over was at hand and Jesus went up to Je-
rusalem, and found in the Temple those that
sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the
changers of money sitting; and when he had
made a ScOurge of small cords, he drove
them all out of the Temple, and the sheep
and the oxen; and poured out the changers
money; and said unto them who sold doves,
take these things hence; make not my Fa-
theirs house an house of merchandise" (John
ii; 13.) Conscience-smitten the traders fled
before the denunciation of one who seemed
to them no more than a presumptuous young
man, without authority over the holy place.
Their consciousness of profane covetousness
made them towards before Him. But while
the Temple was cleansed, it was not so with
the foul brood who had been nesting in it.
The traders were cowed, but not cured.

EDUCATION is a large word. 1t ought
r to cover the whole training of the
IL child.
In our present school system our chief in
heritance is the idea of merely training the
memory, for the most important part of the
judging, and of exercising the creative imag-
ination, does not Yet receive sufficient en-
phasis.
There are other needs in education. A
child needs to be trained to exercise and
strengthen his inhibitons, which is the sub
stance of what We mean when we speak of
morality.
He should be trained to work: that Is he
should be able to do some skillful and useful
labor for which the world is willing to pay
him money. That is the one kind of effort
that is worthy to be called labor.
But most of all he needs trained body.
We cannot get away from the fact that
are fundamentally animals, that our gen
eral efficiency as we'll as our happiness de-
ponds largely upon the perfection of our
bodies.
The so-calIed athletics in schools and col
leges are far from being the kind of training
children need. What they really need is to
know how to eat and drink and exercise in
such way as to make their bodies sound
and strong. eThis is as much a science as
arithmetic is. 1t has it's laws, which the
teacher ought to know.
John r. Quinn, national commander of the
American Legion, says that in spite of the
thirty-two state laws which in greater or less

A BIBLE THOUGHT FOR TODAY

And God said, Let us make man in Our
image, after Our likeness: and let them
have dominion oper the fish of the sea, and
oper the fowl of the air, and over the cat
tie, and over all the earth, and Oper every
creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
So God created man in His OWN image !;
in the image of God created He him;
male and female created He them.-Gen-
esis 26. 81.

HELP SANTA CLAUS NOW!

Rural mail carriers are now helping play
the part of Santa Claus throughout the Unit
ed States. They enjoy this work almost as
we'll as the parents and friends who send
their gifts through the mails. Especially do
the carriers enjoy taking the gifts to the
children, for they are never slow to show
their pleasure in receiving them. The JOY OF
helping make others happy repays the car
rier for the great amount of extra work
which he always has at Christmas time.
However, there are two things which make
the rural carrier, and every one acquainted
with the facts, heart sick at Christmas
time. These two things are:
l. Delivering DAMAGED parcels, contain
ing broken toys, etc.
2. Delivering Christmas parcels a week or
more AFTER Christmas.
That is why local papers and government
bulletins have carried articles headed: "Shop
Now" Mail Now!' and Wrap and Ad-
dress Properly" Now" is right, with the &C
cent on the "NOW." Tomorrow may be too
late. Christmas mail is less prompt than
other mail because the mails are crowded to
capacity
Please help us play the part of Santa, by
keeping this outline in mind:
CD Mail Now.

erly.

Cardboard
OBJ Pack articles securely in box, 80 they
will not jostle around in box or be easily

CD Put your own return address in the
upper left hand corner of the top of package

occupy on a properly address letter.
Two reasons for this:

2. SO that 1t may not be damaged
