In spite of rumors. Portland schools
are not to do away with vertical
writing. The merchants and business
men. it is said, are much in favor of
retaining a style of writing which IS
so legible. 1t has been reported that
different cities are throwing out the
vertical writing and are going back TO
the slant system but so far as can be
learned this is not so, to any consid-
erable extent. There has been some
criticism because the vertical takes so
much time and there has been a dis
POSITION to make a slight modification
Of it, II. w. Shaylor. the teacher OF
writing and drawing in the Portland
schools for many years, has been
among the foremost in the country to
shape the instruction in the public
schools in handwriting. He was the
author of several different sets of
books on the old slant system and
when the vertical came in he prepared
series Of books on that plan. which
have been very extensively used all
over the country. Mr.. Shaylor recent
ly hit on an expedient which is likely
to do away with all the objections that
have been brought against the vertical
system and at the same time preserve
all it's advantages. He calls his new
system the medal. 1t Is the vertical
writing with its round and legible
hand. but slightly slanted TO the
right. A page of it does not look very
different from the vertical writing. but
! 1t is evidently easier to write and the
pupil can attain greater speed, not be-
ing obliged to constantly keep his
mind on the task of making his writing
painfully vertical. 1t is proposed to
introduce Mr.. ShayIor's medal books
in some of the schools with a view of
seeing how they will work in actual
practice.

I the late Rev. William Jenkins. Of
Jermyn. Both Of these clergymen have
already appeared before West Scran-
ton congregations and made a splendid
impression. The former preached at
the Plymouth Congregational church
on Sunday, May ii, and the latter a
week ago.
At yesterday mornings service Rev.
Jenkins took as his text Mathew 1924,
and John 1S:14a He drew attention to
PLATE and Caiaphas as being represen-
tatives of the great world-forces
which were arrayed against the Christ.
Calvary was no accident in the moral
government of the world and Caiaphas
when he uttered those remarkable
words, the truth Of which he himself
did not approximately understand. was
but the spokesman Of earthly wisdom
and compromise; it was not expediency
but an eternal purpose that determined
that one Should suffer for the people.

We're led by Rev. L. H. r. Roberts, of

tourney to Jerusalem, and the Cross of
the worlds rejection has become the
Cross of the worlds redemption. Let
us then see what lessons we can learn
from the action Of Caiaphas and PLATE.
for the crucifixion Is not an isolated in
cident in history; 1t has become moral
Judgment of all times and all men.
PLATE could have sung as Justify as
any soldier of today, LET Me Like
Soldier Fall" yet with all the power
of Rome at his back he quailed before
a cowardly mob, which could not turn
his helpless prisoner one hairsbreadth
from the way of truth. Moral courage
is the great need of the present day.
The world is great deceiver, but it is
not easily deceived and 1t will sooner
or later tear away the mask from the
face of the man who rents a pew to
God on Sunday and serves the devil the
rest of the week.
The greatest enemy Of the church Of
Christ is not the man who says There
is no God" but he who says there is a
God and lives as If there were no God.
The historian Froude says of one great
statesman that he believed in God in a
commonplace kind Of way. What our
religion wants is men so thoroughly in
love with their Christ that they stand
firm whoever wavers, who are ready to
storm the fort regardless of wounds,
who can trample without scruple
upon their own glory. who attach
themselves with all the passion Of their
souls to a losing cause which has part
ed with everything save honor, who
consent not to succeed If to succeed
means to compromise the truth.
