CHURCH AND SCHOOL
L|BERTY'S BULWARKS
The Rev. Bowernnan Delivers
Special N. E. A. Sermons
at Baptist Church.

Education day was observed by the I'M
manuel Baptist church at both morning
and evening services, the Rev Dr. l., S.
Bowerman speaking upon THE Two Bull
warks of American Liberty, the Free
Church and the Free School, in the morn
ing, and THE Child That Is 10 Be Leader
and Hero in the evening dealing in the
evening with the value of prepa ra ton for
life's work, using as examples Moses and
Paul.
In the morning DR., Bowerman used as
a text, Take heed to thyself and 10 thy
teaching" He said In part:
We extend a royal welcome to the
National Educa ton association We
welcome the eachers because of what
they are and also because OF the great
service they are rendering our youth
and our country. We trust that the
visit to our city and state will be far
more than was anticipated and the
vacation remembered for many years
as most happy one.
There has always been the school
and the place of worship. The free
church and the free school are. how
ever comparatlvely modern. Educa-
tion was largely the function of the
Te1glous system through the priest
mood, The systems lived for them
selves, and not for the great mass of
mankind that lay in darkness In the
days OF Jesus and the early church
there was the promise of a better dav;
put church and state became one and
the darkness and superstition OF the
middle ages followed. The reforna-
ton wrought for uplift; but few OF the
relorners We're believers in the free
church and general education of the
masses. That was far in advance of
their day,
No. body of men can do the think

1t is not too much to say that our

Foundation of Liberty.

Liberty and progress. the continu-
ance OF the institutions that enrich
the common life OF modern civiliZa-
tion are in major measure dependent
upon the forces which education en-
genders. Man in the realm of his per-
sonality, as in the relationships to So
ciety which become closer, in the du-
ties that become more complex, with
the passing days, is dependent on the
mental awakening and vision that are
possible Only by the process educa-
tional.
1t is of little moment what form
education takes, whether 1t come In
the quiet OF the lone place and by the
flicker of a pine knot, where a Lin
coin breaks the walls OF his soul with
eager hands to open windows upon
yesterday. today, tomorrow, or a Will
son. in the ella ssic culture Of modern
institution finds the same result; the
important thing is the awakening TO
life and service, to the power to
think. analyze. compare, thereafter
moving TO intelligent and altruistic ac-
tion.
Admira ton for the marvellous ma
chinery OF our school system Is COM
n1onplace; esteem for the intelligent
devotion of the great army of men
and women busied IN molding and de-
yeloping our American youth is in
nate, pride in that wide diffusion OF
power by education, that has made the
level OF common intelligence the high
est known to any people of the age, is
proveribal throughout the world
