Such Is Declaration of Head Of
Mormon Sunday Schools
in Tabernacle.
REGRETS THAT RELIGIOUS
TRUTHS ARE NOT TAUGHT
Says Mormons Are Trying to
Offset This Lack in All
Other Schools.

"It is a matter OF deep regret that re-
ligious truths cannot be taught In the
public schools OF today" declared Hor-
ace II. Cummings. superintendent OF tho
school system OF the Church Of Jesus
Christ Of Latter-day Saints, In d
lengthy address at the Mormon taber-
nacle Sunday afternoon.
Superintendent Cummings said that the
school system OF this nation, as weI as

not be estimated by dolars-an cents.
he said. To him. the speaker declared.
the definition of education means the
development and unfolding of all the
endowments to man from the Heavenly
Father.
Superintendent Cummings declared
that there is much taught in the public
schools that has little to do with edu
cation as looked upon by the Father.
When education is looked upon in The
broad sense. the speaker declared, one
is forced to the opinion that the large
institutions OF learning are not quite so
comprehensive as they should be.
Where Some Tithes Go.
Superintendent Cummings said that
there are thirty schools in tho church
system, all but nine OF which are high
schools OF schools above the elementary
grades. The nine elementary schools are

that about $500 children will enter the
doors OF the church schools this morn
ing. The speaker said that the cost
OF maintenance and assistance given for
erection of buildings amount TO about
S500.000 annually,
This will give you good tithe- payers
some idea OF where part of the tithing
money goes" added the speaker
The speaker told OF the necessity Of
industrial education; and declared that
this was introduced in the church schools
as early as 1879. He said that another
fault with the modern system of educa-
tlon Is the principle of giving oral in
struction. or instruction from books
without the necessary practice.
We must have experience with every
principle of truth" the speaker said.

Why Prairies Arc 1rseless.

why TTdtTuo8 UVo 1TSoloSSs
Professor B. Shimek of the State uni
versity of Iowa has been studying this
question in Iowa. where the treeless
prairie originally covered more than
s~even-eighths Of the total area Of the
state, says the Scientific American. He
finds that the absence of trees is
not due primarily to the soil or the
topography nor to such causes as
prairie fires. the former abundance OF
the bison. ETC.. but is an effect of cli-
mate. Moreover. it is not due to a
deficient rainfall so much as to an
excessive rate of evaporation. The
prairie areas are uniformly so situated
that they are fully exposed to the fac
tors which cause rapid evaporation
namely. the sun and the wind. Dur
ing much Of the year they may present
conditions quite favorable to plant
growth. but there are seasons and
there are portions of the year. espe.
cially in midsummer, when evapora-
ton and consequent dessication be-
come so extreme that only those plants
which are especially adapted to dry
regions can survive.
