BUT SHE HAS ACTED ON THAT MOTTO FOR A THOUSAND YEARS. We waited eighty years for our American national anthem. At last God inspired an illustrious and noble woman to utter in undy ing verse the thought which we hope is forever to animate the sol diers of the republic. Julia Ward Howe cannot yet vote in America, but HER WORDS WILL BE AN INSPIRATION TO THE YOUTH OF AMERICA on many a hard fought field for liberty many a century after her successors will vote. MEN MORE THAN WOMEN ==7 ^ == NEEDED IN THE CHURCH r“f°,R'CKBLeorss \r Q is a historical fact that all the great and noble reli- > gions were founded by men. IN RELIGION, AS IX MUSIC AND ART, WOMEN SEEM TO HAVE TIIE IMITATIVE FACULTY UNDE VELOPED. 1 he church has passed out of the political period to the social stage. The church now rules the social world. MEMBERSHIP IN THE CHURCH IS NOW TOO OFTEN REGARDED AS A SOCIAL INTRODL C 1 ION. The parish house is now taking precedence over the church. In this regard women are leaders of society and, therefore, leaders of the social world. But when women ■tart to do anything great in the way of reform they rarely do anything definite. Men are needed in the church more than women, and the social idea must not receive so much consideration. Men of tact are needed in the pulpit now. They must be men of mental power, but above all they must be tactful, which has come to be a favorite word with the vestries.
