Just at this point the automobiles
around Forty-second Street became
congested, and genial "Pat" McDon

was best so. for Patrick had just been
told that a \assar College girl was
after his shot-putting laurels and he
seemed a bit "miffed."
He did not seem at all pleased to

Miss Harden's triumph came in the

“The Way, The Truth
and The Life’’
Mansions in Heaven,
Factories on Earth,
And Certain Houses
The night of His betrayal, Jesus said:
"Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe
in God, believe also in me.
"In my Father’s house are many mansions;
if it were not so, I would have told you. I go
to prepare a place for you.”
You believe, and yet are troubled.
His cross and love have made you dissatis
fied with self and with what you see and hear.
Visions of a heavenly home for you can not
soothe you, so long as yonder hovels pour
streams of children into Mammon’s maw.
"They should be at play,” you say.
Instead, factories and mills are marring
their hearts and lives to make dividends for
men.
Not this did Jesus mean, when He said:
"Suffer the little children to come unto
Me.”
And you would not—could not still the pity
born of His spirit surging in your heart.
Rightly, you deny that woman’s virtue de
pends on money.
But many families receiving less than a liv
ing wage must live within cheerless walls.
And this, you know—
When their girl is lost, fathers and mothers
are not consoled by the thought that, had their
wage been greater they could have saved her
from the colorless, gloomy home which made
her the more easily believe the luring lies of
an easier way to live.
"Better had she died,” you cry.
True! But you will not defend the hovel
'and the wage.
You recall:
"The day-spring from on high hath visited
us,
"To give light to them that sit in darkness
and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet
in the way of peace.”
And so, when some misguided man says:
"Segregate a few women for the common
good.”
You answer:
"Who shall choose the victims?
"Since when did God give man the right to
assign some to mansions in the skies and send
others to lodgings in hell?”
You justly say:
"Have done with the lie that men being
lower than beasts makes necessary the ruin
of some women!”
Even should a creature, like the fabled Min
otaur of Crete, more monster than man, ap
pear, you will not,talk of sacrificing girls for
him.
Instead, you will lock up the brute.
Segregate him in a cell; that would be well.
The day has past for the making and
selling of white slaves in our city.
God’s pity for His children is opening your
eyes and ears.
You will help your sister. Never again will
you consent by silence to her destruction.
Heaven help the man who thinks you will.
You are awake.
"You believe in God.”

MEN AND RELIGION FORWARD
