My Fellow Citizens: The four years which have elapsed since last. I stood in this pl.TV have been crowded with counsel and .action of the most vital interest, and confoqupucH. Perhaps no equal period in our history has been so fruitful of important, reforms in our economic and industrial life or so full of significant chanees in the .spirit and purpose of our political action. We have sought very thoughtfully to set our house in order, correct the grosser errors and abuses of our industrial life, liberate and quicken the processes of our national Renins and energy and lift our politics to a broader view of the people's essential interests. It is ft record of singular variety and singular distinction. Hut 1 shall not attempt to review it; It speaks for itself and will be of increasing influence as tho years iio by. This is no! the lime for retrospect. It is time rather to speak our thoughts and purposes concerning the present and the immediate future.

Two eminent clerg'ymrn, pastors of rich

Xf w York, have resigned. Dr. Tippy, who quit, his post as rector of the Madison Avenue Methodist Episcopal church, paid'. " "There are too many 'pew' churches and too few 'open' onea in New York. One fault is the large number of religious rounders who go from church to church simply to hear preaching that entertains them. I feel that the social side of religion lias been neglected." Stated Dr. Kemp, rector of Calvary Baptist church: "Some of the churches, or a controlling element within them, are perfectly willing that the people should be saved, but they do not want them saved In pews they have reserved for themselves.

They do not want lost .sheep flocking into their expensive folds." r,r,lrnts nf falline off attendance are to be heard from nearly

( lnirrb.es. Is it because America is engrossed with too many material things? is it because the church, unlike other institutions for public welfare, is not epen enough -oin church have the lazy habit, of closing down entirely during the summer? Or, is It because the clergy have not adapted themselves

mmlem conditions and have failed to use new expedients ior iuim.-.

advertising to compete with the attractions movie managers offer? Whatever is the fault, there seems to be a feeling in many communities that the church could acquire a wider influence. Th? problem is engaging some of our best lay and clerical minds, and perhaps the near future may show where remedial measures can be applied.

THE CACAPHONIOUS CALLOWAY.

Texas, big and brawny, elected tome chump by the name of Caraway or Calloway to Congress, and how the sovereign commonwealth can ever stomach, .such a clown passes all understanding. The state of the glorious Alamo the victorious Lone Star republicshould grovel in sackcloth and ashes for such a creature. Caraway, or Calloway, has charged that a combination of big newspapers are conspiring io plunge the United States into w-ar in the interests

of munition manufacturers. This is regarded as a flimsy fabrication, horn j

of his own imagination. This Texas congressman God save the mark! hap condoned the sinking of boats containing; helpless American women and children. Now he says newspapers are paid by England to plunge the country into war. Caraway or Calloway is just suca a jackass who thinks that every Saturday night soma British moneybags hurrying from Downing street calls at newspaper offices and pays them four or f-ix thousand dollars and says: ' Go to it, boys. Pl'inee the country into war." We would rather be a toad and live, in the reeking moisture of a dunghill than be a congressman like this Caraway or CaIoway. The newspapers of this country whose honor he has impuened onsht to romrip this flannel mouthed ranter to divulge the source of his charges or lash him out of public life, and well chip in to do it. GO HOME WOMEN Wit at earthly good to the cause of woman suffrage is the crowd of females doing which is pestering President Wilson at the White House in these solemn hours of the nation'. need? Is there a single one of these women so light-headed as to imagine for a moment that, ail their marching and picketing and theatrical posing in the neighborhood of the White House has in the least degree helped to bring nearer the passage of n suffrage amendment by congress? Wotr.nn-surf racists, flaunting the standards of the Congressionc1 Union and the Women's Party, could have chosen no worse time th.au the present ritica.1 international siturt .'ion for a. frivolous display at Washington. Pad taste was the least, part of it. it was in keeping -with the absurd campaign of picketing tk Wh'te House grounds for the purpose of harassing the president, F-iys the Xow York WoO 1. F.y its trifling conduct this particular element has taken all possible plans

to dissociate j?:-olf f'orn tno main body of women workers for suffrage an

their sympathi-rrs. It is fortunate for the latter that the distinction Jtas been m ado so plain. To tho great .mass of men and women who have remained in Jifferer.t to the suffrage issue the antics of this small but noisy group of agitators are cause tor serious offense. In the present juncture they only serve to provoke a strong feelinir of resentment.

THE PRESIDENT'S ENGLISH. The president 's Kr.giish surpasses the "Qtken's" in beaut

faultless diction. Of all his sta'e papers, p.--rbap:i AYoodrow Wilson is at bis best in his second-terra inatiguna address, jr reveais an array of balanced sentences whose rhythm ha a smoothness that only past masters of English possess. We commend President. Wilson's addres particularly to students. OutsidA of his reputation as historian and essayist, Mr. Wilson's state papers will give him a permanent plice in the history of English literature. He possesses the balancing art of a Macaulay, the skilled manipulation of words and phrases of a Shakespeare, and the imposing Ftyl? of Gibbon, yet without tlte hitter's monotony of glitter. Through ail runs a vein of simplicity, and art that only the most trained and gifted writers possess. It is simplicity that lends so much charm to Roosevelt's works. What moie admirable specimen of the presidential English is there than thK the opening paragraph of the inaugural address of March lift Is ?
