Wicked men sometimes steal the
livery of heaven to serve the devil in, :"
but this does not give christian men the
right TO reverse the proposition and bor-
row the livery of the evil one to serve
the Lord God of Israel in. The Protest
ant Christian Church, in its great ankle
ty to convert the world, Is in danger of
going too far. 1t electioneers little too
much. For the sake of popularity, it
conforms itself too much to the novel.
A steady adherence TO the simple truths
Of the Holy Book is by far the safest
plan to pursue
1t may be said by some, that we, as a
secular writer, are travelling out of our
province in criticising and condemning
these books. Our answer is, every man
in the community is interested In the
well being and in the proper training of
the children of the State. Those who
place this deleterfous literature, these
miscellaneous novels in their hands doubt
less mean well, and if they, for one mo-
ment, thought they were doing the chill
dren any harm, would be greatly shock
ed But we clsim that these good peo-
pie are attempting to do good ia a very
dangerous way. They are attempting
to teach morality at the expense of the
intellectual health of the children, and
a perverted mind must necessarily carry
with IL weak, If not actually bad tempers
and corrupt morals.
If novels are the proper books for chill
dren to read; if there Is no harm done to
the intellectual health of the little ones
by reading exciting stories; if the tell
ing of outrageous lies in print is better
way to teach children the momentous
truths Of the Bible than the reading of
the Good Book itself, then our criticism
is all wrong, and we owe the authors and
publishers of these so-called religious
7sOrels an apology.
There seems to Us to be quite broad
difference growing up between town re-
ligion and country religion any way.
The town article is fast degenerating
into mere fashionable folly, envy and
jealousy. Novel reading is perhaps on
~ II fashion, and if it is a sin to be out
of fashion, then perhaps it is right for
these books to be Kept in the libraries
for the children TO read, but it is to be
hoped, for the good of the young, that
this is one fashion which will soon
change for the better.
