1fr. Hardie was arranged only after a
good deal of negotiation and it is a source
of particular gratification to the committee, therefore, that upon our platform will
first be presented, by a great ltader of
men, the notable strides Englan<l has
lately taken towards the betterment of
social conditions.

THESE MEETINGS for th~ treatment, from the ethical standpoint
(and with prejudice to no one), of live questions, personal or social, are
held in the most beautiful hall in Boston, situated on State House Hill,
com·enient to the Park-street Subway. They are for you and your friends.
By coming to them yourself and passing on the .news of them you will
greatly help us to develop a new Boston institution, a place where, as in
the Cooper Union, New York, men and women will find mental ana
moral uplift on Sunday nights, and be able to enjoy in comfort good
music and stimulating discussion .
HOW SUPPORTED:
These meetings are made possible through
th e funds left to the Boston Baptist Social Union (in whose hall we
meet) by the late Daniel Sharp Ford, owner of The l'ozdhs' Companion.

January 17-KEIR HARDIE, M. P., leauer of the Socialists in the
House of Commons, will speak on "Reforms Accomplished by the British Labor
Party." This appearance in Boston of
1fr. Hardie was arranged only after a
good deal of negotiation and it is a source
of particular gratification to the committee, therefore, that upon our platform will
first be presented, by a great ltader of
men, the notable strides Englan<l has
lately taken towards the betterment of
social conditions.
The music will be
supplied by Mrs. Alexina Carter_Barrell,
soprano, and the Patten Trio. Their

THESE MEETINGS for th~ treatment, from the ethical standpoint
(and with prejudice to no one), of live questions, personal or social, are
held in the most beautiful hall in Boston, situated on State House Hill,
com·enient to the Park-street Subway. They are for you and your friends.
By coming to them yourself and passing on the .news of them you will
greatly help us to develop a new Boston institution, a place where, as in
the Cooper Union, New York, men and women will find mental ana
moral uplift on Sunday nights, and be able to enjoy in comfort good
music and stimulating discussion .
HOW SUPPORTED:
These meetings are made possible through
th e funds left to the Boston Baptist Social Union (in whose hall we
meet) by the late Daniel Sharp Ford, owner of The l'ozdhs' Companion.
