A 1.111“ church.
A church is in good luck that has got
fifty members true to God and true to the
right. I will tell any pastor that has
that many. “You are the luckiest pastor
l have ever seen in this country.“ 1 ex-
pect that if Brother Lorimer, of
Immanuel Baptist Church. wanted to
call a meeting of all his first-class
members he would call for it to meet in
the. parlors of the church. He would
not think of calling it in the auditorium. .
If they should meet. there, he would
lose sight of them' among the empty
pews.

Brother. if I can‘t have religion in but
one square inch of my person I want it
right herein my right hand so I can do
something for God and humanity. Hear
that? Heart religion! Got it in here.
Got what? Got what 2‘ Religion is just
as much a thing of the foot. as it is of
the heart. and just as much of the hand
as it is of the heart. and just as much of
the tongue as it is of the heart, and if
there la a square inch about me that is
not religious. God oonsecrate that spot
now. I want to be religious from head
to foot, through and through. all over,
every do in the week, and everywhere.
That is‘ a talk.

a snare and a delusion in that it is lead-
ing vast numbers to set the time for sav-
ing up for the house and lot. or the
competency for their old age. when they
shall receive the “big wages,“ meantime
carelessly spending all—and rushing
them into disastrous strikes and into
trampling down personal liberty to
hasten the “big wages“ era. It is an
era that can never come. for the very
simple and easily understood reason. as
above stated. that every cent that Cap-
ital gets, or can get. out of the aggregated
annual product of wealth, divides up
among the now nineteen million wage
earners Into very thin daily fractions.
This much for the wage question—as
to the division of a percent: of the
profits of business at the end 0 the year
among the employees. while it is a com-
me able movement in cases where it
can carried into direct, as regard. the
gre t majority of employee is it not also
fallacious. not to say farcical?
This scheme but lies that every busi-
ness employing L: r is profitable: that.
every amp over is making profits and
can afford to divide up with the toilers
who contribute so largely to make the
profit—while the facts are that five out
of ten employers _or concerns make n
bare living._ have a hard struggle, as
the saying Is, to make _both ends meet,
