SEPARATE SCHOOL
FOR EACH SECT
Archbishop Elder Says 1t Is True
Solution.

CINCINNATI. Oct. s.-In speaking OF
the public school system OF the country
and the. objection of Catholics to the
same. Archbishop Elder today suggested
a remedy.
Religion and soul instruction can
not be separated" he said. THE mind
OF man has a threefold aspect-the in
tellect. the will. and the feelings. Edu-
cation that neglects any one of these is
only partial. In its broad sense ii must
train and minister TO ALL"
Would 1t satisfy the church IL the
Bible were studied or read in the public
schools by pupils and teschers?" he was
asked.
1.-The talk about the reading of the
Bible is with many little more than a
shibboleth. sort of eleetioneering de-
vice. We believe in reading the Bible,
but that is not all of religion"
What plan. then, would reconcile the
two systems. satisfy the church, and yet
not violate what is called the American
idea7'
Il would say this-take. for instance
any ward in this city. There are one
or more schools in 1t. Now. one plan
would be to let the parents of the ma
jority Of the people in the school de-
eide the nature and extent OF the re-
ligicus instruction that would be given
in it. While this plan would be better
than the present. 1t would be only an
approximation 10 the correct plan.
The true method, it seems TO me
would be to have a school where Cath
olics could go exclusively. Then II there
be any other sect that feels as strongly
on this matter as we, there could be a
school for them"
Would not that mean a great in
crease in the number OF schools and a
breaking up of the uniformity that now
distinguishes the common SCHOOL,"
Not at all. II would not be neces-
sary to have in every ward a school for
Catholics. one. say. for Jews. another
for Methodists. and so on. All that would
be required would be that there would
be enough schools in the Cincinnati
school districts to accommodate those
who would want a distinctive religious
