I take exception and doubt very much whether

Webster defines the word muir as follows: ~
mean, silly. or stupid fellow: a poor-spirited or
desplcable person" My long experience and OBJ
servations as scholar, teacher and ofncer In the
sunday-school, do not permit me to believe that
there is a " rhilosophic'' reason for branding thu
ordinary sunday-school young man all, or any
part Of what Anti -Chump'' practically claims
him. The Sunday school is a brain-developin In
%stitution along religious and moral lines. and the
men that the world to-day respects and admirss
have all, with bat few exceptions. been Sunday
School boys. The problems OF the present, let me
assure "Anti-Chump." will best be solved by men
Of character and principle, and such men ara mot
