A SPLINDID ACHIEVEMENT
(Bridgeport Telegram)
One of the most monumental
lessons in ciVio achievement in the
history of the United States is the
Bronx River parkway. in Bronx
county and Westcbester county.
New York. This parkway which was
built under a commission originally
formed in 1907. is now a. completed
project and on December 81. was
the commission was dissolved and
the title to the parkway handed
over to the two counties in which it
ice.
The parkway drive is e boulevard
1t. i~2 miles in length. following the
lironx river; from the ‘Botanical
Gardens to the plhn south of Ken-
sico dam. The drive is 40 feet
wide. and it is flanked throughout
by 9. park area of varying widths
on either side of the river.
'l‘o acquire the necessary land for
widening purposes. to clean up the
river. remove the obstacles. do the
planting and build the highways cost
“6,000,000 and the people of New
York today would not restore this
parkway to its original condition
for many times that sum. Indeed
the real estate values which have
followed the building of this park-
way have paid for it. several times
over. in increased tax revenues.
When the commission took hold
in 1907. the Bronx river was an
open sewer. a filthy. polluted
stream. It was flanked by stables.
tumble-down shacks. dirty public
dumps. railroad tracks. stumps and
scars of trees. shabby undergrowth
and a general condition of neglect
and unsightllness so foul that peo-
ple protested to the New York legis-
lature about it. That was why a
commission was appomted to clean
it up.
Today the Bronx river is s pure
and sparkling stream. Winding
paths. beautiful ,ahado trees and
ornamental shrubs follow its course.
the dirty shacks are all removed,
the offensive billboards have been
ripped dt'vn and put away. splendid
bridges of architectural charm are
found at all the crossings. and a
wide cousin-u. highway exists for
vehicle name.
So profound is the change that
few people will believe what has
been done. until the actual photo-
graphic evidence of "before" and
“after" is presented to them. For-
tunately the parkway commission
foresaw this and caused aphoto-
graphic survey to be made before
any work had been done.

H. 0. Wells has published an ar-
ticlo on “Marriage." In it he re-
trains from personal opinion with
that astutencsa which character-
izes his writing. He speaks in the
role of a prophot. not as a reform-
er or as an iconoclast.
Marriage‘ and its attendant obll.
gallons has changed considerably in
five hundred years. Ii will change
more considerably in the next five
hundred. To be consistent with our
rapidly moving era. is will change in
less time than that.
Who knows what the marriage of
the future may mean? Perhaps. as
Mr. Wells soggefi. it may bring
community homes for children with
highly specialized attendants to look
after body and mind. E _ nics will
play part and there will a more
perfect children. The mother may
be the breadwinner as well as the
father.‘ They may even have homes
apart: Who knows what my come?
I am glad that I live now in the
twentieth century instead of the
twenty-first or twenty-fifth century.
I cannot imagine a country without
the family home as a. foundation on
which to build its other institution-
A man without a. country is less
tragic than a child with a home.
Observe all nature! Observe the
iowe'r animals and their solicitude
ior their own young. Tigers and
kangaroos and bears do not leave
their young in in woodland day-nur-
sery for sustenance and training.
Even an incubator chicken has my
sympathy.
Hypothetical community homes of
the future may produce perfect
bodies and colossal minds. One won-
ders in such a contingency; what is
going to happen to souls.

Improper News
That Produce it Offer
The officials of The Associated
Press whose general manager is
Kent Cooper. A Christian gentleman
of the Middle West, have given
years of earnest effort in trying to
perfect an organization that should
safeguard one of the most vital as-
sets of the people-clean news. Ed-
gar T. Cutter is reported as saying
in “Christian Business.“
Within the last ten years the
newspapers of this country have
printed twenty-five per cent more
news concerning religious things,
for instance. as carried by The A3-
soclated Press, and there has been
a call for more. There have been
editorials faa'oring that class of
news; and a. great many men in the
newspaper business feel that one of
the very important duties of a pub-
lisher is to put decent news before
his readers—Lie exclude improper
stuff that he would not want to have
go into his own home.
Hundreds of thousands, if not
millions. of persons in this country
have no other book than the news-
paper, no Bible at all. Newspapers
try to reach them. But it is these
men and women "in the street" that
newspapers could reach with tre.
mendous effect it they had the full
cooperation of the church and of
business in putting over a. touch of
better things.
The message that is termed the
greatest news story ever written.
ministers are giving to select con-
gregations of a few hundred. or a
few thousand at. most. and limited
numbers of employers are giving it
to a limited number of employees.
while millions of newspaper readers
have a too plentiful supply of the
other kind of news.
We are told that our true piece in
the universe is to be followworkers
with God in carrying on the work of
creation. The possibility of the
great uplift and education of the
race through the prose and with the
aid of business is immeasurable.
What surely is needed. is s. better
understanding between business, the
church and the press. of their mu-
tual opportunity. their mutual re-
great objective without the spiritual
cooperation of the other.

might easily, it has been said. turn
the scale of civilization up or down.
At no period has there been so
great a need for cooperation and
harmonious action in all undertak-
ings and between ell peoples u now.
Notwithstanding criticism. on earn-
est effort is being made by tho'pur-
veyors of news to do their share.
The desire to educate and uplift.
and to discard the mean and the
cordid is common among newsmen.
The people seemingly want better
things and doubtless as a further
stand is taken for constructive news
the people will cheerfully follow. A
great spiritual authority has said
that "the character of news shall
gradually rise higher and higher un-
til finally Truth in its purity shall
go forth." The newspapers are
therefore doing a greet work in es-
tablishing avenues through which
people are being educated .
Another leader has said: “The
coming generation will iind in the
newspaper a greater apostle of
Christianity.” I happen to know
that. most editors are working for
the work's sake and many to help
humanity.
You ask. what has all this news-
paper talk to do with Christianity in
business? Well, I answer. very
much. in my opinion. The news-
paper reflects thc times—is a record
of current events.
We hear a. great deal in criticism
of newspapers and newspaper edi-
tors because of the Crime news they
print and for their other alleged sins
of commission and omission. I
wonder if the churchmen and the
businessman consider that perhaps
they themselves may be responsible
in a measure for this newspaper
condition. This newspaper condition
reflects your business. that forywhlch
decent business is responsible.‘ I be-
lieve the church and business ere
partly to blame.

news would revolutionize the world.
You say you want clean news in
the newspapers? All right. you must
develop it. New-pews editors do
not make news—they record things
that have happened. ‘

‘determined to take Jesus Christ into

men are brothers" could the result
be anything but the most marvelous
success. success for yourself and for
your fellow worker?
And if you cannot think of carry-
ing it through to that end. what is
there to it?
is Christ needed to overcome pres-
ent conditions? Many think he is
the only remedy and must be adopt-
ed boldly. The newspaper is the
natural ally in bringing about this
Iconsummatlon and in reaching those
imillions who “have no Bible."
The newspapers stand ready.
iThey always have been ready to do
{do their share. They are waiting to
publish the good news, but they Cilll-
not manufacture it. Business pos-
sibly is failing to do its share by not
furnishing the uplift news of the
world.
What business men need is to mt-
lize that the responsibility of in Ens:
business leaders carries with it the
responsibility of guiding. directing
and teaching the employee and the
customer that larger thing of "be-
ing sbout my Father's business."
The relation of men to work is a
.vcry honorable one and it should be
highly respected.

Oxenham's "The Sacrament of
