Shouted the girl. She didn't even grin. You are frequently presented with •ho rtatment that tlm church is com- iVc-d•of- classes. There was neyer f, greater falsehood uttered, The mos* democratic institution on earth is the church. ’ The Bible says that we .are all in- dudedjunder Bin. There isn't any man rho -is'hot classified as g sinner. Some may lie about it and say they ire not sinners and some may lie a- 'rnut it and say there is no such thing ;s sin. But both of those statements •re infallible proofs of the existanee of sin and of the fact that we are all ncluded under sin. That is democratic. Those who are saved are saved by Christ; therefore all Christians, re­ gardless o f their name, are sinners sgved by grace and all Christians are under.grace. That is democratic, 1There is only, one qualification for joining the church; namely, belief in Christ. • ‘ The rich and the. poqr, the'high and the low, the learned and the ignorant, the wise and rim foolish, the good and the bad, the young and the old, the pretty and the ugly, areall members of the church. Christ is the Savior of all. And we meot in the common place to worship JesuaChrist. There is a common wor­ ship, and common prayer. The man .in overalls, _the map in broad cloth, the woman *in satin and the scrub woman in her apron, can kit down In the same pew, sing’the same hymn, repeat the samp prayer and worship the Game Christ who died to ••ave all. ‘ The most democratic institution bn earth is the Church of Jesus Christ, New York is a crowded town. Her subways and elevated railroads in the jam hours of the day are lit­ erally packed sardine-tight with human freight But •with all, this congestion of millions of people upon a little island, it is the easiest town, in the world to lo­ cate your whereabouts without thp.aid of a compass or a guide. It is eleven blocks wide and her cross streets are numbered. New York is just a great checker board.. If you, can talk the American tongup, ’ any policeman will help -you find yourself if you are lost. - ’ . The other day a pathetic story went the rounds o f the press of a Mr. and Mrs. Joseph.

The foreign preSs keeps’ the foreigner foreign. ■■The foreign language press in this country has de­ fended Itself on the ground that only by talking a for­ eign language could we teach the foreigner American ideas,and ideals.. It has defended itself on the ground that it was the melting pot that educated the foreigner ?nto the American.
