Praise of Schools
1.-THE schools are not perfect but
believe we would be disqualified in
two generations If it were not for our
schools / have been told by severai
prominent educators in the schools
that in his opinion the trash,
picture shows where the films are
frequently shown scenes Of a sugges-
tive type have degrading effect up
on the pupils Good pictures have
good effect, but bad ones are very de-
The picture shows, the Sunday
saloons, pool rooms, excursions and
baseball all teach the youth to dis
regard the Sabbath.
And what of the church mem
bers who stay away from church?
He Is like the Irishman who said the
church | attend Is the one ! stay
away from. His influence Is against
the church and on the side of the
Sabbath dissertation.
Dead Letter in Cairo.

to be dead letter, except agains,
a contain class.
Last week the Chicago police
raided a euchre game and arrested
40 women for gambling. If we could
do that here we could add 40 men for
the same offense, and 40 saloon keep
ers for selling liquor on Sunday, ~
for selling liquor to
40 men for visiting houses OF
i'll fame and 40 women inmates, 10
men for renting of these houses ana
we would have $50 to put down, On
the police docket. Some might objec
to the company on social grounds, but
the experiment would have good
effect on the public at large.
Two Sad Days

the saddest days of the week in pay

and drunkenness here on Sunday
than any other day Of the week, be-
cause men are idle and resort to the
saloon, whore murder is committed,
carry out the dead bring in the booze
and let crime go on. !
