Moss and Charles P. Roy of the Alley Helping Hand Society of Shiloh church and the following members of the association calling the conference—namely, Revs. J. Milton Waldron, A. C. Garner, W. J. Howard. E. E. Ricks, F. J. Grimke, I). E. Wiseman and Professor Joseph; also Mesdames Rosetta Lawson, M. M. Waldron. S. Boyce and E. C. Lewis. Rev. Dr. Waldron presided aijd Rev. Mr. Wiseman conducted the devotional

exercises.

The chairman stated that the object of the conference was threefold—first, to become better acquainted with those engaged in social betterment, moral and religious work in the alleys of the city; second, to devise methods for enlarging and Improving the work already being done: third, to prevent duplication of work and to insure harmony among workers. There were addresses by Dr. Kober, Mrs. Culbertson, Mrs. Monroe, Dr. Kline, Miss Cromwell, Mrs. B. K. Bruce, Mrs. Bettle G. Francis, Mrs. Anna E. Murray and Miss Cook. Dr. Kober said that the alley people were among the weaker and poorer citizens, that their only capital was their labor and that it is highly Important that they should be healthy to make their capital profitable and that anything that tended to make them clean In home and life was to be commended, for it promoted health. Mrs. Monroe and Dr. Kline felt that th<j homes of these people and their bodies as well would he clean when the gospel took deep root in their hearts. Mrs. Culbertson thought that all the churches ought to be interested in this work and that the missionary societies of those churches should pray as well as work for the regeneration of the alley people. Mrs. Francis and Mrs. Holland spoke of the good work being done in Willow' Tree alley and in other places by the Young Women’s Christian association, and Mrs. Murray presented the great need of day nurseries to care for the small children whose mothers are compelled to leave them without protection while they go out to earn a living. Dr. Waldron called attention to the fact that many of the shacks in numerous alleys in the city were unfit for dwellings and urged that they be replaced by brick structures and that the city further see that there are proper sewerage connections In all the houses In the alleys and that hydrants with sinks be placed Inside each house. He said that the city would always have a large class of poor people and that there would always be need of small houses, and, instead of closing up the alleys, he would advise that the houses in them be kept in sanitary condition and blind alleys be done away with, and that the condition of the people living in the alleys and courts of the city be improved so that these places shall cease to be plague spots and the rendezvous for the Idle and the vicious, as many of them are at present. The conference favored the formation of a central committee which shall be made up of representatives from all organizations engaged in work of any kind for the uplift of the alley population of the city and that this committee hold conferences and public meetings at frequent Intervals.

New Literary Circle Organized. The young men and women of the Concord Baptist church In Brooklyn made a move along the right line when they met on Wednesday evening, March 30, and organized a literary circle. The temporary officers are W. K. Taylor, chairman; Charles Hensen, secretary. William H. Major and Miss Mary Martin head the committee on

constitution and bylaws.

In Memory of Miss Laura Brookins“None knew her but to love her,” could most appropriately be said of Miss Laura Brookins. So meek, so modest, so unassuming and yet so faithful, vigilant and prompt at duty’s call Like the sweet little violet she shed a benign influence upon ail who came in contact with her. She was the Bible ideal of a woman. As we gazed upon her quiet, sweet face, we wept that one so lovely should have a life so brief. May all who knew her emulate those excellent qualities.
