The Nobility of Work

Dr. T. J. Lacy, of this city, says truly that there is a "nobility" in work. He adds: "Christianity has been a supreme factor in bringing this about. It began as a workingman's religion. Jesus was a carpenter. Paul was a tent-maker. The church should have a profound interest in the welfare of the toiling masses." But the church will not elevate true labor by human organization. Only as she by God's grace helps to ennoble the individual man will she truly help the workingmen.
