ADVERTISING THE CHURCH.

ADVEH ISiNG He. CHI URCff.
With a view to reaching a Ger.
tain class of people, the Publicity
committee of the Christian Con
servation congress, which meets in
New York April 1924 in connection
with the Men and Religion Forward
Movement, placed with all of the
New York daily newspapers adver.
tisements of a religious i nature
which were displayed on the sporting
pages daily for the next six weeks
The innovation is among many be.
ing tried here to bring home to
the people the call of the churches
The meeting is declared to be alb
solutely nonsectarian and this is
reflected in the first advertisement
which reads: There are $50 Prot
estant and Catholic churches In
Greater New York and :. 107. syna
gogues. These all have message
for men which men" need: Lift uI
your living and your thinking An
other advertisement ? says: 1.-The
churches are not perfect, but their

not better perhaps they can help
you. Let us get together for mans
good and Gods glory" .--..

HITTING AN INDUSTRY.

A dispatch from Washington says:
Butter, a big dairy product of Min
nesota, will be admitted free al
American ports if Representative
Oscar w. Underwood, chairman OF
the democratic ways and means
committee, has his way about. it.
Mr.. Underwood who is candidate
for the presidential nomination, is
anxious that his party shall go to
the country in the coming election
on a tariff record that calls for the
admission free of duty of many
of the necessities of life.' Mean
while, what does Representative
Hammond think of this bold at
tack on one of the leading indus,
tries of Southern Minnesota? Will
he defend it against the vicious
assaults of his fellow democrats?

Mr.. Wildes, though not IN the

The Free Press in it's contention.
The road laws have not been com
piled with simply because the sys-
TEN is faulty and there is no senti-
ment among the people in favor OF
the enforcement of the statutes. In
augurate a more up-to-date system,
make some person responsible for

trouble which forms the basis OF
Mr.. Wilde's complaint will be obviat
ed. AS TO graft-well we take. a
more optimistic view of the road
question. Officials as. class are
honest, and not given to grating.
Therefore, we feel that we could
trust the officials who would have
to do with road building under 4
more sensible and practical system
than is now in vogue. We hope the
state Legislators will continue to graft
more rational road building laws into
the statute books. a.. ,-". ~.

After reading the story of the
Staying of the three Nebraska state
prison officials by convicts, the
question naturally arises in ones
mind How came those convicts In
possession of the revolvers with
which they committed the dastardly
crime?iE The management Of that

HANG THE LAW WoLAToRs.

Grewsome stories of crime, MUIR
der and debauchery fill the columns
of the daily press. And notwith-
standing the ever increasing number
of law violations, legislatures are en-
acting measures that make it easier
for the violators to escape the pun
ishment they deserve. Meanwhile,
the criminologists had best rack
their brains in an endeavor to dis
cover some plan by which criminals
can be given the bitter dose that
will act. as a deterrent to crime.

Opinion of J. M. Mcconnell.
Professor J. M. Mcconnell of the
normal was we'll pleased with the
outcome of the case. He said:
"The action of the court in dis
tendent Sperry should be commend
ed by every one who has the vel
fare of the public schools at heart
| The superintendent of schools is
responsible, as the court wisely
pointed out, to the board of educa-
ton and to the community not only
for the facts but for his unrestrain-
ed opinion of the conditions in the
schools and the efficiency of the
teachers. No individuals personal
interest can be considered against

To do so would be to destroy the
effectiveness of our entire educa.
tional system" -" p.
Position Is Endorsed.
President C. III. Cooper of the nor
NAL said today: ~
! 81 endorse most heartily the pc.
sition taken by the court in throw
| ing out the suit of Mr.. Chance. The
tposition of a superintendent of
schools would be insupportable if
any teacher could get damages from
him in case Of an adverse report
| to the board of education with re-
gard to the competency and spirit
of a member of his force. 1t is the
superintendent's duty. and n most
important part of it, to. make just
such reports every year, and the
law clearly protects him in the per-
Torrance Of this duty" ...a. -
Remarks of Judge Pfau.

the case yesterday made the fol-
lowing remarks: 81 dislike very
much to take the case away from

throughout the entire trial with the

takes in this case. The defendant
here is a principal of the public
schools and has not only the right
but his absolute duty is to make
reports to the board of education
and to carefully examine into the
affairs of the school and the con-
duct of the teachers and to make
