Mss Cass, the Meriden school teacher who attempted to instruct her pupils in theology, made very bad break. In ex- planation of her action she publishes card stating that she was instructing her class from a work of Professor Fisher of Yale, entitled ''History of the Reforma- tion." Anybody who knows anything about Professor Fisher or his work on the Reform ation, must understand that his doctrines should not te taught or his work quoted in the public schools, and Miss Cass must either be possessed of sectarian preju- dice or is lacking in one of the most requisite qualifications of public school teacher, or she would not have left herself liable to censure in such matter This question of the Reformation is a delicate one to handle, for not only do Catholics and Protestants disagree upon the question, but even Protestant denominations are divided in regard to it. A Protestant ex- change, treating of the matter, says that beyond the fact that there was what was known as the Reformation, and that Luther took p! eminent part in the move ment, nothing about the event should be taught in school where the pupils belong to different denominations. This is a sen sible view of the matter. The Meriden teacher tried to explain what she evidently knew nothing about
