T!i local church, when it finds
itself in a peculiarly unresponsive
and adverse environment, instinctive
ly proceeds to supplement its ordi
nary functions, as preaching, prayer
meetings, Sunday school, and pas
toral visitation, with a system ot
philanthropic and educational institu
tions, through which it endeavors to
touch people on the physical, social,
and mental sides, in order to draw
them within hearing of its religious
message. In this way it becomes an
institutional church. Church insti
tuticnalism is nothing more than or-
'jl. ganized Christian kindness. At bot

that has a sewing circle, is in just
so far an institutional church: which

suelter and embrace.
Having defined the Institutional
Church, we inquire next in what
kind of field it finds its richest op
portunity for development and oper
ation, it is under the pressure- of an
adverse environment that the local
church tends to institutionalize (ii
we may coin a word suited to our
definition.) There are spots, it niay
be, in new and growing towns, or in
the suburbs of large cities, where the
currents of social life converge in
favor of ecclesiastical growth.
Church-going people arrive in shoals,
and, unless the churches, in their
eagerness to pre-empt such fields,
which they are fond of calling stra
tegic points, get in each other's way,
and multiply so rapidly that the sup
ply exceeds the demand, they seem
to grow of themselves. The ordi
nary methods suffice.
It is in more difficult fields that
she gains her scanty triumphs, as in
the low, congested sections of our
large cities, where, against the few
churches that have been left behind
in the general exodus, all the great
'social currents swiftly and steadily
converge. Lower New York, for in
stance, offers a rich field for institu
tional experimentation, and indeed
upper New York seems all the time
becoming lower New York. Here
where towering business is flanked
on either hand by vast masses of
teeming nnassimilated population a
mission field of unsurpassed richness
presents itself to the Church. Child
ren swarm in the streets like rabbits
in a warren. Night and day one is
confronted by the hideous spectres
of prostitution, pauperism, drunken
ness, crime. Materialistic habits of
thought pervade the thin mental soil
of the people. Alien races, often with
stiff prepossessions against churches,
jostle each other, Latin, Celt, &uiic,
drawing, little by little, from the
field. It then becomes a traveling
show. It forsakes just those sections
of the city where it is most needed.
Vast masses of people are left un
churched. There is presented the
singular spectacle of Christendom
sending missionaries to the heathen
beyond the seas, and contemplating
with indifference and hopeless the
extensive and vigorous growth of
heathenism in the very vitals of its
own country. Wc pay the traveling
expenses for our best men and wo
men to preach the Gospel to for
eigners at the ends of the earth, and
when these same foreigners come
to us of their own accord, paying
their own traveling expenses, we
turn away from them witu antipathy
and despair
But these neglected masses in the
lower wards of our city have their
revenge. They are a constant men
ace to our distinctive American in
stitutions. We cannot escape them.
They cling to our flanks and follow
us as we proceed northward on our
narrow island. We catch their dis
eases. .They have a saloon on ev
ery coiner. They out vote us at our
elections. A miasma stealing up
from our social swamps infects our
whole municipal life. The wise os
trich endeavors to ' escape her pur
suers by hiding in the sand her too
conspicuous head, assimilating her
body to the sand dunes around iit-r;
but such an artifice will not avail
with Christian churches. The differ
ence between the Irishman, and the
Frenchman, according to Heine, is.
that when the Irishman does not
like the government he emigrates;
but when the Frenchman does nof
like the government, he makes the
government emigrate. The Church
has pursued too much the Irishman's
policy, fleeing from adverse environ
ment instead of subduing it. It is
like the company of militia that en
listed with the express understand
ing that they were never to be
taken out -of the country, unless it
should be invaded.
The second alternative is for the
Church to cling indeed to the old
fields downtown, assuming, however,
that the methods of former genera
tions will suffice for the requirements
of today, instead of readjusting its
gearing to the changed conditions.
"New Occasions Teach New Duties."
The masses in our cities require
our very best preaching, architec
ture, and music. It is a mistake to
try to reach them with cheap and
nasty appliances. If I had my way,
I would put the most beautiful
churches among the poor, so that it
would be only a step from the squalor
of the tenement house into a new
and contrasted world. The poor used
to be taught to be patient under their
sufferings, in hope of a blissful here
after. But now they are waking up
to the fact that the rich, in their
refinement of selfishness, propose to
get the better of them in both
worlds, not only to monopolize the
gocd things of life, but also to ap
propriate the things that are sup
posed to help people heavenward, as
the best preaching, and music, and
architecture.
In New York the Institutional
Church seems to be the only alterna
tive left if we propose neither to
abandon the downtown fields alto
gether, nor to till them with antiqua
ted impliments. The Church should
clinrj to her old fields, no matter
how hopeless and repulsive her
changing environment may become,

What Balance Sheet Shows.
A careful scrutiny of Seaboard's bal
ance sheet' for the last fiscal year
shows that only a miracle could have
nrevented the final outcome. Over i
$5,000,000 was tied up on deterred as
sets, and the total of current assets
was onlj $5,122,000, against which
there was outstanding $9,157,000 of cur
rent liabilities. With the doers of the
financial centers closed against new
loans to a road which could show
only a deficit in a year of wonderful
railway prosperity, no course other
than a receivership was left open.

India.
Consul-General William II. Michael,
of Calcutta, contributes the following
notes on the cotton crop of British In
dia: The total exports of baled cotton
from the Central Provinces and Borar
during the period from October, 1906,
to September. 1907. amounted to 880,
40G bales, or less than 50,814 bales in
the corresponding period of last wear.
From all the reports, official and un
official, it is believed that the yield of
the present crop will fall below that of
1906-7 and that the quality will be
much inferior.
The drought has hurt the crop pros
pects in the United Provinces consider
ably. Figuring dry and irrigated land
together, the yield is now estimated
at. 60 ptr cent, of a normal cotton crop
in the Moerut and Agra divisions and
50 per cent, elsewhere, while the direc
tor of agriculture thinks that further
deductions may have to be made as
effects of the drought come more fully
to light.
The report is made that this year's
crop of Sind-Egyptiau cotton produced
in what is Known as the Jomrao tract
is good, despite the ravages of the
boll worm, and that the yield will be
double of that of last year.
This district, as I understand its lo
cation, with reference
under irrigation.
Judge Bradbury, at Oldham, has
made a decision that 8 per cent, of
moisture in cotton was a reasonable al
lowance, and in a case before him held
that the cotton which was shown to
contain 11 per cent was not in a reas-

Consul-General Richard Guenther,
of Frankfort, advises that the budget
bill for 1908, drafted by the German
government, asks for a grant of 50,000
marks ($11,900) in aid of the cotton
trade.
It is reported that this sum is to be
used for the planned exposition of
cotton growing, ginning, and compress

next April.
Cotton gins and presses are to form

the machines wil be put in operation

German manufacturers of agricultural
machines are expected to attend and
give their attention to this branch of
manufacture, which as yet has not
