#001 The Worlds Congress Auxiliary Scrapbook, p. 1020 ress into harmonious relations in a series of international con- gresses has triumphed. The World's Congress idea is established among the peoples of the earth. Every participating organiza- tion and interest has been exalted by its association with the others. "Not things but men! Not matter but mind!" will henceforth rank among the commanding watchwords of mankind. The Parliament of Religions has emancipated the world from bigotry, and henceforth civil and religious liberty will have a larger and easier sway. Labor has found in religion and social science its strongest allies, and will henceforth advance to victory along the lines of law and order and peace. Woman's progress will secure for her in the larger family of the school, the church and the state, a position perfectly corre- sponding to that which she rightfully holds in the smaller school and church and state of the family. Moral and Social Reform has adopted the methods of science, and charities will henceforth be administered for the prevention as well as for the relief of social evils. Commerce, finance, production, transportation and distribution have learned that the gilded piracy of destructive competition must be abandoned for the beneficent policy of co-operation, to secure the best results to all concerned. Science and philosophy have learned the lesson of fraternity and human service; and education, thoroughly humanized and exalted, offers its priceless treasures to "all sorts and conditions of men," while the world applauds the new crusade against the evils of ignorance. Let this suffice. The progress made in the World's Congresses of 1893 will not be lost. The movement of which they are a part holds the whole world in its embrace, and will not cease till it shall have accomplished the mandate of God to unite all the peo- ples of the earth in "the bonds of peace and in righteousness of life." It is because we have served His plans that success has crowned our efforts.
