Mr. R. Kennedy-Cox, Warden of, the' Dockland Settlement, described the views of sham dwellers on the Christian ileal and als on the civic life, Fringing the slums Bad overtopping the public-houses in the locality where he worked were a large num ber of imposing parish churches.“ The sium-dweller certainly did not picture Jesus Christ as dwelling in one of the Houses of God adjoining his sium. They were thers From the slum-dweller's point of view for serai-official and necessary cecasions

such as marriages, where young perfunctorily married off in batches by tired priests after a series of early celebrations at great. festivals. They were there also far up tists, churching, and funerals' also they afforded a most welcome haven for parents to wind their masses of children to for Sunday-school purposes on the seventh day, All these functions, to the uneducatii min symbolised officialism, and to a large extent they had begun to regard their church in mach the same way as they regarded their labour exchange. borribly erroneous ideg of the function of the Church of Jesus Christ had definitel taken root in the slum-dweller mind. That from these buiblings should radiate out a blazing ray of Christ hope had never entered their minds, Men looked for a message, they looked for a leader, but they were censing to look for both of these from the Church. Why did these men regard the Church with such indifference, without even the compliment of hostility What became of the thousands of Samlay school boys who had grown up into working lads? Did

One must blame someone for letting them drift into this state, for re- Lowest open-air Temperature on pelling them, for killing their warm hearted interested. Men were actually beginning to ask: it a live Church or ndead Church-this, our Vstablished Church Thank God there was lite, and where there was life there was an abun dant harvest. In all his varied experience in prison work and at the London Docks, with boys, lads, and men of all typhy and age, he could not remember ever encour- tering a single one who lid, not in his heart of hearts not only admire, but abo reverence Jesus Christ.

Strange to say this feeling was one of their great stumb ling blocks in getting young men forward for confirmation. this wonderful pathetic feeling which they had of being" unworthy to approach or attempt to follow so beautiful a character.

FROM CHURCH TO FOOTBALL...

come

Nothing would repel the ordinary healthy man or boy so tercibly as the feel ing that the Church disapproved of some action of his which he was intensely inter- ested in. They, who knew the appalling Jack of playing fields in our grent cities, and the enormous numbers of boys and men who cagly, wished to use them, realised that a hig percentage of these! men were forced to play their weekly, gume on Sunday They also remembered in the past how the side streets were filled, Sun- day after Sunday, with men playing "pitch and toss aud, bays burning for the first time the fatal fascination of gam bling, and they began to see how healthy, clean Sunday games could be organised by a kindly and sympathetic Church and become plewlid and welcome thing. Surely they did not fear Sunday games as rivals! The spreading of the worship of God was not brought about by hibitions--its value lay in its free choice. His own organisation frankly sent for the representatives of all those men and fads who expressed a wish to use their fifteen football grounds on Sundays, and said to thera: If this thing is to be it must bo a recognised thing and no hole in the cur ury business. Do you wish to cut Church altogether, or are you anxious to combine the two, which up to now has seemed, rather difficult Of course, they all said that a very large percentage of them were sincerely anxious to combine the two. They were given their chulce-a service on the football ground just before the games started on the same sort of service nt any hour which they might choose in their own little war memorial church. They chose the latter and selected an hour, and from that day, week by week, a stream of men with little black bags and fruit boots tied on outside came swadily to the church. They were more attentive and more regular than the ordinary regular church goer, it he was quite sure that the neighbours n' few streets away said, "Look I wouldn't mind betting they never go young men off to football again, inside a church year in, year out! Во much for their judgment of others, (Hear, hear

Mrs. Hudson Lyall, a prominent member of the London County Councij, and an opponent of Sunday games, said perhaps. the greatest condemnation of the Churches: at the moment was the disrespect for public life national or leal, and the Inw pinian held by most people of public men. The fact that public life and Chris tianity were as far apart as the poles was the fault of Churchpeople themselves, and it must be altered. Churchpeople shoul! therefore use their votes and be interested in local government, thenes elves serve as guardians or councillors, have a large out- Took of Christian citizenship. (Cheers)

NEW MACHINE-GUN.

Successful trials have just been made in the "Swiss Army with a new light machine-gun made by the Federal Arms factory. This weapon weighs only four or five pounds more than the ordinary in- fantry rifle, which it much resembles. Its magazine holds thirty rounds, and it is capable of firing at the rate of 450 rounds per minute. From sixteen to twenty. four of these machine-guns will be allotted to every infantry battalion.
