A RELIGIOUS TENDENCY.

The churches of the world are hard
" advancing in proportion to the
money collected. Small attendance at
services and lack OF suitable ministerial
material are features causing concern
in UNCONVENTIONAL circles. "A few
months ago this thfme was taken up at
n Methodist conference at Pacific
Grove. Bishop Edwin Hughes. in his
annual address, said, in part:
Simplifying the church with minis
tiers Is not a hit and miss
matter We must help the LORD
to get men. Many men are called
to preach, but refuse to go. We preach
ers must quit talking about the hard
times and the sacrifices of the ministry
and talk about the bright side of
nrenchIng the Gospel. The future of
the church depends upon the right kind
of leadership"
The trouble with many Of the
churches today Is that they have no
distinctive mission, no peculiar truth to
announce with which the world is not
already familiar. They have no special
message. AS II conscious of this fact
they are turning their attention to old
PHILOSOPHERS. Attention was called to
this peculiar fact, some time ago, by
Rev, Herbert Symonds, vicar OF Christ
Church Cathedral. Montreal, when he
stated, in public address, that the
church did not pay enough attention
to comparative study of religion. He
was speaking Of the Edinburgh confer
ence on missions, on which occasion
n congratuatory letter was received
from the Roman Catholic Bishop OF
Cremona, personal friend of Pope
Plus X, In which the prelate said that
he realized tho significance of gath
ering such as tho Edinburgh confer
ence was and alluded to the link of that
great religious truth which binds to-
gether Christians Of all denominations
DR.. Symonds added that from what he
had heard and seen there he inclined to
the view that not enough attention was
paid by the church to the great reli-
gIons of the world. He thought that 1t
would be of deep interest to consider
how the principles of Buddha and Mo-
manned could be woven in with those
of Christ, as had been done with the
philosophy OF Greece. III the case OF
China. he said, where 4oooOo,ooo SOUS
were to be won, nm immense benefit
might ensue and the empire DO Chris
tanned.
That indicates a modern tendency In
religious circles. The question is OF
diluting Christianity and make it palat-
able, and then "Christianizins" the
world with the mixture.

sUB-NoRs1An CHILDREN.

The recommendations of the COM
mittee at the Utah Teachers Associn-
ton on the physical basis of education
will. we believe, meet with general
ncquicscence, excepting, perhaps. the
one which suggests the rnaintainance
of a state institution for the feeble
minded separate and apart from any
other public institution: and that
which aims to introduce all at once
schools for the defective throughout
the State.
1t Is very easy for small state to
overdo the provision for the dependent
and sub-normal persons whom 1t may
have within is borders. We have al
ready found that the cost of educating
comparatively small number Of deaf
mutes, for example. amounts to very
considerable outlay In comparison with
that which is made for the education
OF trimmed specialists say In ngrcul-
ture or in teaching. for instance. who
are to deal with the whole mass of the
population of the state by way Of IN
struction and training. For the sep
arate institution for tho feeble mind
ed, an immense sum would probably
be required, and while 1t would BEN
it do as much good to the greatest
number of the wards OF tho State, as 1t
would IL expended In developing high
or skill on the part of those children
who are we'll tittcd to exercise 1t?
The second recommendation, that n
law be enacted providing for tho cx-
clusion from the regular classroom OF
imbccile and other predetermined chill
drcn. and Mt least temporarily of 9TH
er children whose mental or physical
condition Is such as to make their
presence In the regular class room
seriously detrimental to their own In
terests, or to the interests OF the other
children. will not be antngonized The
third that special classes under train
ed teachers be organized throughout
sub normal and sluggish children, not
classed as imbecilc or feeble minded:
and that unsraded rooms under teach
crs especially qualified for such work
be organized for backward children
and such other children ms may need
temporarily the benefit of individual
instruction and help. will. we fear,
meet with some decided opposition. AS
to the third and fourth. that provision
be made for medical SUPERVISION In
all OF tho schools Of the State both
private and public. from the kinder
gartcn to the university; and that free
medical and surgical treatment be
provided for such INDECENT and defec-
tive children rs give manifest evidence
Of the need of such treatment, these

LITTLE TO SHOW FOR MONEY

We find in tho Northwestern Chris
tian Advocate an article on Methods
ism, In which 1t Is pointed out that the
growth of the Methodist church Is in
adequate to the money collected. The
Advocate is u Methodist paper.
In the article referred to 1t is stated
that the Methodist Episcopal church,
during the last year, raised s4s,oo0,oOo
for all purposes or this sum- $1,000
600 wont to salaries of ministers. But
the increase In membership, during the
wear, was but $4,000, counting, all both
Mt home and abroad. That, 1t is point
ed out, was only an average OF three TO
n congregation. and the question is
asked: Were the returns commensur-
atc with our, outlay OF men and
money!"
Wo have no doubt that stocktafing
by most OF the churches of the world
would reveal similar result Some
church members are growing prosper
Gus and donations are increasing. but
tho growth OF the churches Is slow. III
fact conversion" is the exception
Fraternal organizations and business
clubs grow faster than churches. AS

A FEW WAR FIGURES.

The total war debt of the principal
European nations amounts to s26,517,-
5o4.541. France owes over $500, 100000;
Russia, $4,000. 600 600; Great Britain. 3d.
500, 900 900; German states. $4,000 .0oo, 900,
and the German empire, $3.50. 0o0O00
Italy $2.7cO 900 900. and Spain. $780,
100000. Turkey, Austria Hungary, Bel
GUM, Denmark, Netherlands. Portugal,
all are loaded down with war debts. To-
gether these nations pay an annual In
terest Of s1.134, 296.l79.
For tho sake of comparison, the total
Indebtedness Of the United States Is
1925, 147 432.04. In addition to this
there is the debt created by states.
counties, and cities. about 20 per cent.
OF which is assumed to be incurred for
military purposes. These figures show
the enormous price nations arc paying
for wars and the maintenance of peace
by means of armies and navies.
The commission appointed by the leg
islature of Massachusetts to look into
the causes OF high cost of living, re-
ported that "a most far-reaching In
fuence in enncting, fostering, and per-
petuating high prices Is militarism,
with its incidents OF war and waste and
it's consequences in taxation" The COM
mission shows In its report that In the
1875 years OF our national existence we
have had three foreign and one civil
war They lasted but ten years. The
Civil war cost about s5,O00.000,00O, and
the war with Spain, sl,l65000,0O0.
According to the same report we have
spent, since we became republic de-
voted to peace, sl6,567, 677,135 for mill
tary purposes. and 51,194,216 for
other activities. The money we have
spent for war exceeds the gold produce
ton of the world since the discovery Of
America, by about three billion dollars.
Prominent business men are looking
into the future with anxiety. They tell
us that soon 1nen will be looking for
work in vain all over the country. They
warn legislators and administrators of
public affairs that extravaganza must
cease, and that the utmost care must
be exercised In public expenditures. Let
there be retrenchment, then, In military
expenditures. That will lower the cost
of living ana give the people breath
ing spell.

steps to be taken by the common
wealth. The fifth and sixth that
clinic for study and research work re-
lating to the care and treatment o,
sub.normal children be established III
the state university as n department
of the state normal school, and that
the state board of education make
provision through printed Instructions
for the careful observation of deficient
children, and by means of printed
forms for the making OF careful ana
accurate records of such observations,
seem to grow naturally out of the oth-
er recommendations: and since they
would occasion but little additional eN-
uenditure. no reasonable objection,
perhaps, can be raised against them. :
Nearly all parents, we should think,
would be gratihed to see this mater
taken hold of and dealt with by the
legislature. The number of sub-norfnal
children is much greater than would AT
first be suspected, Many q home may
have them, and the parents may sup
nose that the children are simply peca-
liar in one respect or another NOT n
few are physically defective In the re-
gon Of the pharynx and nostrils, ana
often the eycsight, without the detects
being known to either parent or teach
er. This is why there should be medi-
cal inspection ana some sort OF simple
hyglenic regulation in all schools.
This Is an expenditure that no one
should begrudgc, because 1T VIII be re-
paid many times over in the efficiency
of the future citizens.
The more efficient the citizen, she
more powerful and the more wealthy
in the State which commands his serV-
Ices. States do not lose anything by
rendering the members which compose
it as efficient as possible That would
be short sighted policy which should
neglect to give to the normal cnild, OF
to those but slightly sub-normal. thc
power to shit Tor themselves, to pro
vide for those dependent upon thcn'
and to serve the State in any capacity,
whether as a private citizen or as
public official. For, besides his wealth
producing capacity, in which the State
is especially interested because 1t can
tax the wealth or income of Its people
in our country each citizen exercises
the ballot and so takes part in the gov
eminent of State and Nation. We can
not afford, therefore. to neglect the
training of those who are to furnish
the wealth or who help to direct the
policy for continuing the affairs OF our
government.
For these and other reasons the State
IS bound to do its best for all those
whose training would yield back to 1t
us. much or more that 1t devotes to that
purpose.
