New York Avenue Presbyterian Church. Where Lincoln
Went to Church
AM writing this meditation in the where Lincoln
prayed. On this very spot where write he came
- to kneel with a sainted minister to pour out the
anguish of his soul to God amid the shadows Of terrible
days when there seemed way out But he knew that
God would send light. It was from this room that
Lincoln returned the White House with hope and
heart The Room Where Lincoln Prayed If he had need
of it. who shall dare refuse its practice?
How strange his life. No came from a cradle
so humble to grave so illustrious The Almighty takes
pleasure using the lowest for the highest The least
promising given names above all other names Those
who have accomplished most for mankind have been born
in humblest homes It with Lincoln. It was SO
with Moses-and Jesus It will be so through the ages
No bitterly opposed. Friends were trait
ors He trod the wine press Of wrath and scorn. He
knew what crosses were but suffering sweetened him
seems if he born to suffer Every feature Of
the The hollow eyes, the long salow face the thin
chest STOPPING shoulders his long silent
showed him of not Of today or yesterday
but long treasured and deep rven born OF WEAKNESS
and pain He fell at the foot of the altar he had built
and covered it with his own blood
You cannot explain Lincoln He is beyond defining
He was not the product Of his age his home, his nher
tance his environment He Gods man Of destiny
He wied that birth It is true In times OF crises the
of svel and the Of God always
unfold. Have heart. There is always Lincoln for
every crisis God rules and all viii be well.
Lincoln is not dead. His soul goes marching on In
tyranny, intolerance, and nhumanty the spirit Of the
Martyred Lberator still lives Hallelujah bless God
for Abraham Lincoln.

MAKES REPORT
/. ON EPISCOPAL
MISSIONS
Rev. G. w. Dow, Superinten-
dent in Church Militant, Tells
Of Work Accomplished

The report for the work of this
organization for the year just end
ed must, perforce, be more or less
incomplete, for the reason that 1t
can include the personal work of
the present Superintendent as
Chaplain only for the first four
months, other records not being
available. On May first, the
present incumbent took charge OF
the institutional work, and also,
OF Trinity Diocesan Church, as
locum tenens. On the first of
September the Reverend Raymond
L. Wolven was installed as Vicar
of Trinity, and the Reverend
erintendent of the Episcopal City
Missions, the latter becoming a
separate unit, and absorbing the
work Of the Prisoners Aid Society.
Headquarters OF the institutional
work has been removed to the
Diocesan House, at 1929 K street
northwest.
Following is a brief summary
of our accomplishments, which
have been carried out singlehanded
by the Superintendent, except for
the aid of volunteer workers, dur
ing the last four months Of the
year. However, there has been
splendid help of this sort, without
which the task would have been
impossible. We shall hope during
the coming year to have more all
time assistance, and ito put this
most important diocesan work
upon a solid, efficient basis, which
viii enable us to cover vital things,
necessarily untouched under the
present handicap.

WAGES TO WIVES

What is to be done with hus-
bands who think that while their
wives are partners in work and
worry, they are not partnero
when it comes to spending the
family's income?
William Johnston, the noted
journalist, bravely undertakes to
answer the question in a recent
number of Good Housekeeping.
After relating several cases Of
well-to.do husbands who dole out
money to wives, he declares:
Husbands who like to go off
for a few days fishing, husbands
who occasionally like to stay out
all night playing cards, husbands
who neglect their homes for the
golf links, If they see that their
wives get their regular salary
each week no matter what. hap
pens, are not nearly so apt to
come in for criticism and fault
finding at home.
Careful observation of the
amount and variety of work that
any wife does in running a home
has convinced me beyond any
question that each and every
wife deserves a good salary
as good as her husband can af.
ford-regularly paid to- her.
The Washington times., 1925-04-06

ANY man who has a good wife
and doesn't pay her a salary, in
my opinion, isn't a good business
MANN fact, I'd be inclined to
consider him a fraud-that despic-
able sort of person who cheats his
own partner.
I'm not paying his wife proper
wages he not only is endangering
his own happiness and home-com-
fort, but he is exertnig a bad in
fluence in the community. BY his
example he is discouraging a lot
OF charming young women from
getting married. And that's GER
tainly not right. I'm one OF the
old-fashioned kind of folk who be.
lieves that every girl ought to get
a husband.
But 1 also believe She should
make a prenuptial deal-that her
husband is to pay her regular
wages for the important work Of
being the right kind Of wife"

us look much smarter. When we
were very young, George, who 10
nearly six years older than /, had
to wear a sailor suit when we
wore such a costume. George
liked the sailor suit because the
long trousers gave him a grown
up feeling. Mamma thought
sailor suits ideal for children's
playtime, blue serge in winter
and white duck In summer.
Gloria was always much inter-
ested in what she wore and would
stand without complaint for
what seemed to me interminable
periods while clothes were being
fitted. Very different from me:
I simply detested those try-ons.
and my mother often became
greatly annoyed because failed
to show what she considered a
proper interest.
I would stand, first on one foot
and then on another, fidgeting
and think of everything save the
engrossing topic Of the moment.

my favorite hobby to this day,

OF course, it was in town that

spent the winter months at No.
857 Fifth avenue, mamma had US
come in to the city to attend a
private dancing class that Mrs.
Clarence Mackay, now Mrs.
Joseph Blake, held once a week
at her house.
It was in New York also that
my mother wore most of her
beautiful jewels. When 1 was a
little girl would look on her
with awe as she was prepared
to attend the opera with her dia-
mond dog collar around her neck
and her pearl and diamond tiara
upon her head.
