0 GOD OF EARTH AND AL TAR
(To lhe music of "Webb")
0 God of earth and altar
Bow down and hear our cry,
Our earthly rulers falter,
Our people drift and die;
The walls of gold entomb us,
The swords of scorn divide,
Take not 'l'hy thunder from us,
But take away our pride.
From all that terror teach es,
From lies of tongue and pen,
From all the easy speeches
That comfort cruel men,
From sale and profaualion
Of honor and the sword,
From sleep and from damnation,
Deliver us, good Lord.
Tie In a living tether
The priest and prince and thrall,
Bind all our lives together, ·
Smite us and ·save us all;
h1 ire and exultation
• Aflame wilh faith, and free,
Lift up a. living nation,
A single sword to Thee.
-G. K. Chesterton,
. THE MARCH OF FREEDOM

O'er serried raulrn th e ve1111011s falli11g!

·whence come ye, h ero warriors, hith er?
\Vh,~t land, what ages, gave ye birth
What crave ye i;till of llleecling earth

What laurel-wreat hs lhat shall not wither'!
To arms lhe clarions call,
'l'o cleecls the doing worlii;
March on, march on, lill freedom dawn,
Ancl ju st ice rnle the ea rth!
Glory to God, th e clay is breaking,
The lo11 g-a wailed golden morn!
'l'he heroes dead who, self-forsaldng,
II Gave all to hasten fre edom's cla wn.

As llrolh ers, comrades, march beside 11s;
On, then, lo conq ues t of the world!
On, till our ball le· fla gs are furl ed
In freedom's peace, and God shall guide \HJ.

December 29.-PnoF. C11AnLES PllosrEno
FAGNANI of Union Theological Seminary, New
York, will give an address on '' God and
Democracy."
Professor Fagnani was the
speaker of the evening at Cooper Union that
· night, ahout half a dozen years ago, when Mr.
Coleman caught the vision of a similar forum
for Boston ; so ever since this movement was
successfully launched we have been trying to
get -Dr. Fagnani for our platform. vVhen you
hear him you will understand why he fired Mr.
Coleman's soul with noble ~eal-and wl1y we
have asked him to address ypu tonight.
That Same Evening, :tvI1ss ANGELA
Mon GAN, who was heard here last year with so
much pleasure, will read two of her recent
poems: "7 oday," published in the ci1rrent
number of the Cosmopolitan 1
1.fag-az ine and
epitomizing the very spirit of our wonderful
time, and "_T/1e Titan," a poem still unpublished, which was inspir~d by the first Ford
Hall Meeting Miss Morgan ever attended.
Altogether a jubilant 'evening, this last tviceting
of ours in the year nineteen humlred and
twelve!
January 5 is the Sundiy before the Boston
school election.
~lite appropriately, therefore, the question of effectiveness in our public
.school system will then be considered, Mns.
ANNA GAnLIN SPENCER of New York opeqing
the discussion by her powerful lecture, Are the
Public Sch~ols Democratic?" Mrs. Spencer
is one of the hest-known platform women in
this country and she will undoubtedly make
that evening a stimulating and a profitable one
for us all.
