BACK OF THE

church last night was preceded by
brief pulpit editorial, which undertook
to tell what was back Of the horses"
Mr.. Elderkins editorial was as fol-

contest for supremacy between well

the center of the sporting stage for

In that time, they tell me, a man who

FOR
BOX ELDER
COUNTY
MISS MATILDA PETERSON RE-
SIGNS AS PRIMARY SUPERVISOR.
Sister County Acquires One OF Weber
county's Valued instructors
Larger Field Of Labor

II is much regretted by the county
board of education. Superintendent
Eggertson and the teachers oil tns
county schools. that Miss Marllda
Peterson has contracted TO supervise
the primary department. of the Box
Elder county schools next year. Miss
Peterson has been offered larger sal
ary by the sister county board OF
education, and she has felt constrain-
ed to accept the position. Superinsen-
dent Eggerston stated last evening
that 1t would not be an easy matter
to duplicate the work done by MISS
Peterson as primary supervisor OF Inc
Weber county schools. but that every
possibIe effort would be made to find
worthy successor during the school
vacation.
Miss Peterson has been with the
Weber county schools for number oil
wears, during which time she has
done much for the schools and has en-"
deared herself to the teachers and
students alike She had charge OF
the county schools exhibit at the
Four.County Fair In Ogden last year,
and the success of the exhibit made
OF the school work was largely due
to her efforts and indefatigable work
She will leave the service of the
Weber schools with the very best
wishes Of the teachers, students and
the board of education. who have
been associated with her In the edu-
cational work of the county.
She enters as primary supervisor In
the Box Elder schools, but her work
will be considerably extended, be-
cause of the size Of the county and
the scattered condition OF the school
districts. 1t Is said that In size Box
Elder county Is the Texas OF Utah.
Brigham City will be included In her
field OF labor.
Superintendent Eggertson states
that promotion exercises for all the
grades, except the eighth. will be held
at the various school houses on Fri
day. May 21st. and that the eighth
grade exercises will be given at the
Ogden Tabernacle, June 5th. Mr.. Eg-
sertson desires to have all the grade
promotion exercises made public and
at the same date throughout the coun-
ty. He also states that the exercises
will be as nearly as possible the en-
bodiment of simplicity and the parts
that the students will be called upon
to take will be demonstration of the
work done by the students during the
school year.

Moro liheralltX.

The religious as well as the secu-
lar press appears to be adopting a
more liberal tone In the matter OF
moral instruction In the public schools.
More stress is being laid on the prin-
ciple of ethical instruction In all It's
branches, and they seem to be yield.
Ing the contention, so long and so stub
bornly maintained. that theology must
be taught in the public schools. That
morality In It's broadcast sense should
be an important feature OF instruction
none has gainsaid. and that sound
moral basis will lead to 4 religious
life is beginning to be conceded on
all sides. Given the moral basis at
school. the child will develop religious
belief at homo In the direction OF his
environment and In accordance with
the creed he Is taught.-American

Capital Of Bosnia,

Sarajeyo, the capital OF Bosnia.
where the Austrlans have had to take
military precautions in view of pos
sible trouble, was the scene 200 years
ago Of a miracle which rivals that Of
st, Denis. the patron saint of France.
Seven dervishes were beheaded by a
pasha's orders for having committed
q great theft, though their innocence
was clearly demonstrated afterward
But the dead men had meanwhile
been proving It themselves. AS soon
as the execution was over, the seven
bodies arose, each with its head under
it's arm. and walked into the mosque,
where they were then buried side by
side, Consequently good Mohammed.
ans have thenceforth yenerated those
dervishes as saints. And the seven
graves may be seen at Sarajevo to
this day. proving to any doubter that
the story is true.

After the singing OF hymn the SER
mon. having for Its theme Evolution
and Effort" was preached. 1t was
based upon Jesus Injunction to Strive

the fundamental distinction between
progress In man and progress in ma

by way of conformity to en-

emies. Anl that's about all an animal
wants.
But in mans kingdom progress does
not come by way Of conformity to en-
vironment. A new law enterS-the law
OF effort. the law Of refusal to con-
form. Man lives in the desert OF in
velop skin like that of the lion or the
bear When he wants food and 1t Is
In tree he builds ladder, So then
the work of evolution is conformity;
the work Of effort is control.

they left 1t was still desert covered
