his plans are like unto a crying baby

And moreover he has a place for the
crying infant— a nursery, and is not
slow to advise church patrons to take
their babies there. H e is right fond
of babies himself, we venture, but be­
lieves a crying evil is better out than
in the church. The effectiveness of a
sermon or song is often lost because of
the oratorical powers of a young D e­
mosthenes or a Frances E. Willard.
It might be well then for the local
theologians to add nurseries to their
temples of worship rather than com ­
pete longer with the young forum
fighters, lest the divines be outwitted
in vocal demonstration.
