February 14 - LINCOLN' N IGHT, wi th Col. Ed ward Anderson,
who kne~v am! loved Lincoln long before h e was president, to tell us of
" The lvfan and The Statesman," and to give us an idea, too, as to
how Lincoln would feel about some of the great and pressing problems
of our own time.
T wo day!'; before this meeting the one hundredth
an~iversary of the birth of the Martyr
President will have been celebrated all
over the country. It is particularly fitting,
therefore, that we shoul<l consider here the
life and work of this self-made man.
Another self-made man will be remembered also, that evening, Dan iel Sharp
F ord, to whose beneficent thought for the
working-people of the future we owe this
beautiful hall in w hich we come together,
on Sunday evenings, and these inspiring
meetings, which have meant so mu_ to us
ch
all. For, previous to Colonel Anderson's address, Mr. W. N. Hartshorn, who married
Mr. Ford's daught_ r and who was very closely in touch with Mr. Ford's
e
work and wishes, will tell us a hout the life an<l loving labor of th_s man
i
who owned and e<lited The Youth's Companion and huilt it up to its
present position of influence and power. Music by the Imperial Ladies'
Quartet. Their. program :

uf rhe ::-,Jational Consumers' League and an expert on questions relating to
chil<l bbor, w ill talk as only she can on "New England's Lost Leadership in Child Labor Legislation."

Mrs. Kelley was formerly very

closely associated with Jane Addams in Chicago, where for four yea rs
she was State Inspector of Factories, and she has , more recently, travelled
and im·estigated child labor all over the country.

She btlieves that we

of this part of the United States have retrograded in our wo rk of legis1:nion for children's protection and she is coming to spur us on to fresh
:ind further endeavor.

The music will be furnished by Bertha Cushing

February 28-RABBI SAMUEL ScnuLMAN of New York, whose
brilliant address in our last year's co urse is so ,veil rememberccl hy
many, will talk to us about "Things That
Separate Men and Things That U11ile
Them." His topic of last year, "What
the J ew Has Done for the \,Vorltl ancl
·w hat the \ • orlcl Has Done to the Jell',"
V
gave a hint in advance of the line his
address might take, but we can't C\"Cll
guess on this year's rnbject. So you ll'ill
have to come and hear him for yocmclf.
That he will give you something to take
away and think about and present his
message as only a true orator can is, however, certain. For he is a tried and true
Cooper Union speaker; and you know,
from having heard Rabbi \Vise, what that mea ns. Th e music will he
furni shed by the Young :tvicn's Symphony Orchestra, formerly the
Boys' Symphony . Orchestra, conducted by Jacqu es Benavente. Their
