A MONG the progressive and reform
a atory movements of the day,
4 there is one which should take
place IN this New year OF 1912. That is
a complete overhauling and reshaping Of
the creeds and dogmas Of our orthodox
churches
Many absurdly antiquated ideas are
still standing in cold print, in the
churches, which the clergymen and the
laymen have long since ceased to OBJ
serve. Why should they remain, and
Why should new members who Join these
churches, sign their names to promises
and obligations which they have no in
tention Of keeping
For instance, less than 25 years ago,
an excellent young man of unblemished
reputation and Of good habits, was ex-
PEELED from the church because he
danced in the homes of his friends, and
in a club Of respectable young people.
Dancing was one of the "sins" he had
promised to avoid
Today he is a constant attendant at
that same church; and more than hall
the members Of the congregation include
dancing among their accomplishments.
Yet there has been no reform in the
written rules and obligations of that or
ganization; while Time, Education, Prog
ress and Common Sense have united in
making change in public opinion.
Dancing Is known today to be a moral,
healthful, grace-giving recreation, when

cling among the temples and shrines of
India and seeing how utterly ignorant
Of the principles taught by them, and
later by Buddha, are the masses of In
dia today; and how devoid of anything
but superstition and fear are the teach
ing of 80 percent Of the Brahmin priests
today.
When we turn to our own Christian
land we find things not so bad but we
find them bad enough. We find church
property exempt from taxation; and
when we look into the result we Ofttimes
find ungOdly people thriving on the rents
paid for these grounds. We find it lead
ing to what the churches preach against
graft. We find clergymeE reared with
an idea that they are TO obtain every
commodity of life for half its value;
that they are to travel at half fare, and
to let the snow remain on their side
walks until some one else cleans it of,
and TO accept a thousand favOrs where
other men accept one.
This IS all wrong; it destroys self-re-
lance; 1t cripples ambitions 1t lessons
self-respect.
It makes men leaners instead Of lift
ers; receivers instead of givers- It Is
argued that clergymen give spiritual
truth and enlightenment. But can man
who Is anxious about having his eongre-
cation give him his support, speak his
mmost convictions to that congregation
If he wants a free pass for his family
in his summer vacation. can he speak
one word which shall reflect upon any
method a railroad corporation might use,
which was not Just or right
Can he afford to antagonize, or re-
prove, any form of wrongdoing in the
business world, or to attack any anti
quated prejudice and worn out idea in
the minds of men who are paying his

TIE CREED TO BE-By EIlaWheeIer Wilcox

Our thoughts are molding unmade spheres.
And. like blessing or a curse,
They thunder down the formless years.
And ring throughout the universe.
We build our futures by the shape
Of our desires. and not by acts.
There is no pathway of escape;
No priest-made creeds can altar facts.
Salvation IS not begged or bought;
Too long this selfish hope saficed;
Too long man reeked with lawless thought.
And leaned upon tortured Christ.
Like shrEeled leaves, these wom-out creeds
Are dropping from Religions trees
The world begins to know its needs,
And souls are crying 10 be free.

them to obtain support from the people
and every possible superstition Is los

them to obtain charms and fetishes to

gOdlets.
Thel same thing is done in India bv
the millions of Brahmin priests. who
swarm over the land, living idle lives
and contributing nothing to the general

MEN TO MAKE UP
POULTRY SHOW DEFICIT

The FL Paso Poultry association held
its regular meeting Thursday evening.
Steps were taken al the meeting to wipe
out the deficit caused by the annual
poultry show Of the association and it
was decided that this amount should be
raised by contributions by the members.
Lee O. Paddock read a paper on Poultry
Houses which was afterwards discussed
generally by the members present.
