In his Sunday-talk to 250 men and boys in his Bible class at the Fifth Avenue Baptist church, he made an eloquent appeal for. more religion in daily. life. ; i . , i . After Mr. Rockefeller, had spoken the men all formed in line and . spoke to him. ' In the line were a number of ministers, who told him that he had given a better sermon than they themselves could preach.

; The fire department was called at 2:45 o'clock this morning to extinguish a blaze at the home of Mrs. Lillie Willetts, 27 North Eleventh s.treet. The fire started by a broken gas stove attachment. . The damage was slight.

"The Enemies of the Cross," was the subject of Rev. Raymond Isley's sermon at the Holy week services of the Second English Lutheran church last night. . :. ; ' ; .-'.; "The " cross is God's plan whereby forgiveness of sin , and redemption were wrought out. for him who would

trut in the merits of the perfect sacrifice of the Son of , God. Consequently the cross stands for the crucified Christ as a redeemer who makes the atoning sacrifice between God and man. . "A crucified. Christ is the center and circumference of Christianity. This is the whole gospel presented in the word and proclaimed in the world by His - church. 'y '' - "Salvation on the crosstwas wrought' for all all have sins. Every- soul must assume the attitude -of affirmation or opposition. When Christ said, He that is not with me 1 is against me.' He showed 'the " impossibility of any man being neutral i on this "great question of the claims of the cross

and the righteousness .- for which itJ

stands. V.

-BY EDGAR .1L1FF. ' .1 believe In eight-hour labor. I believe, la the oM Franklin rule of eight hours for work, eight hours tor play and eight hours for sleep. I believe that each is good If a man keeps the happy balance and ..does not indulge in two much of either. All leisure is as bad as all work. Perhaps it is worse. None is so unhappy as the man who has no aim. or object In life but to amuse himself. ; I should like to see the hours of labor abridged so as to permit time for recreation that elevates and adds strength and manhood, but I should also like to see the shortening of working hours extended to women as well -as men, especially to the women who wort at home, and whose toil is never done the wives and mothers. f " . Selfish Woman Dangerous. .. a n ' thare in nothine more dan-

i ... Lgerous or more disgraceful to civil

ization than strong, neauny-women, endowed by nature to - sweeten and enrich our common lot. with no other aim in life than . their:- own selfish pleasures. - Theymake the. only type of unsexed creatures In the. whole animal kingdom. . Aspasia . may have received smiles and luxury from Pericles, 5 and Caesar and Marc Anthony may' have toyed with Cleopatra, but men and gods have placed .the crown of love and honor upon 'the brow of Penelope, the faithful wife of Ulysses. Where is the wife or mother of some workingman's family who can compass her labors in eight hours a day? If she does the cooking, the washing and ironing, the mending an sweeping and looks after a brood of little children, then her labor will not be'bounded by less than fifteen or sixteen hours a day; and there is no labor organization, there can be no law or boycott or strike that will change her condition for the better. I do not propose to write a treatis on domestic economy.' " ' ' ' - I shall leave that to the literary club women who ' by ; use of encyclopedias fix up such beautiful essays on "How to Use a Chafing Dish" and "How to Broil a Lobster." . But 1. say, what is sauce for the gander, is sauce for the goose, and that eight hours a day is just as good for ma as it is for pa, and that if the hard-working and unpaid wives of this struggling world should strike for shorter hours and just a little pa,y once in a while, society would stand aghast at the greatest tie-up in business this globe; has ever The whole machine-would stop

and mien "would come to terms before

supper. But we are in -no danger. Women who work for their families and try to keep things going are like the scriptural charity, "kind, patient and long suffering." They will never strike while children crowd around their knees and the mother's heart is in her home. Man Can Help Wife. -But as man gets shorter hours of labor lie can devote his leisure to the relief of his .wife.- He can shorten her hours of labor by personal help. He can lighten her load by his companionship. He can sweeten her life bv taking her with him in his recreations. He can adopt the wise and time-honored rule of the Germans,

Had Germans landed on Plymouth

rocn wen, we should have escaped .some awful pages of American history. The ." man .who seeks more leisure that he may, spend it In selfish pleasure, while the mother of his children carries the burdens, is no better than an. Apache .Indian.. The -man i who spends his money in leisure among "the boys"'while his wife skimps and scrapes 'and, work's and slaves to save a dollar for herself is too contemptibly mean for any decent man to speak to., Some Work Blessed. Carlyte said, "Blessed be drudgery." No! cursed be drudgery! Blessed be work, with a happy home at the day's end.; Blessed be work that you love and work that is done for those you love; work that has mingled with it all' day long the sweet face of -your wife and pictures of a peaceful home; work that you sing at and whistle over and do with light heart and - deft fingers; work with wnleh you mingle the memory of his strong manly voice and the impress of his kiss; work that is done to please and make a good, whole-souled man; work whose aim is joy and comfort, manliness and womanliness. Cursed - be drudgery! Cursed be labor for naught! Cursed be labor for the sole gathering and hoarding of money; yes, a million times cursed be that. Cursed be this hoarding and grinding and pinching and belittlin g ; this will-o'-the-wisp race for dollars in order that they may make more dollars piled so high that the owner sees neither sun, moon nor stars and has forgotten every human tie . If all

humanity was as blind to earth's beauties as the money-fiend, then the Creator ought to smash the whole show. ' ' .'' Cursed be drudgery that brutalizes and shrivels the mind, heart and soul of man and woman. Happy labor may be in-the ditch and heavy drudgery in the counting room. Life is not worth living to those who cry out from underneath stacks of superfluous wealth, "All is vanity!" ; A man may wnistle earning $1 a day. Another may run over his bank account, his rents, his dividends and coupons, his long list of stock and numerous possessions, and curse God and die by self-destruction.

men. If a man has $60,000,000,000 and thinks there are no honest men and no good women he is the poorest clod that ever dwelt on this good, green earth. Hope and love are the great sheetanchors of life. They are buttressed and hooped and riveted with faith in men. Their roots go down deep'intQ the lives of the common people. There they get nourishment. No man ever did a great thing in this life except through a faith, a great shining faith in something or somebody. If it were

not for the humble homes and the sweet, patient lives of those who work with a common aim in their abodes the' world would have gone over ' to darkness and despair long ago. 1
