REMEDY IN Church
NOT LEGISLATURE
Senator Rathbun Says Moral
Suasion and Not Fear of
Laws Is Necessary.
Especial to the Newark start


MADISON, Feb. Ex-senator Charles
A. Rathbun, of Morris. spoke on
'Trying to Make Men Moral by Leg
islation" at the regular Sunday dis
cussion of the Mems Bible Glass of
the Methodist Church yesterday
morning. The general trend of his
remarks was that there is too much
effort to accomplish the result by leg
islation. He said:
'"There Is altogether too much run
ming to the Legislature to remedy
every little offense. I think it is the
work of the church to accomplish the
desired result in making men moral.
A man remains essentially the same
in spite of laws, although they may
convey some terror, and through them
a man may be deferred from commit
ting some act which he otherwise
would have committed, but the result
of legislation along these lines i.s not
satisfactory. Coercive legislation does
not make men moral, while moral
suasion might in many instances
change them for the better"
The senator deplored the proneness
of people to rush to the Legislature to
restrict people and thus force on all
others the views of the person or per-
sons wanting the legislation. While
what one person would do, he said,
might appear all wrong to another, 1t
might appear perfectly right to the
person in question. He thought that
the person differing from the one who
was committing the act might better
visit that person and try to persuade
him to take another view of the sit
uation.

In Loantaka Valley and is of brick.
In 1t there was only one school room
and one teacher. All eight grades,
for the school had a complete gram
mar course, were crowded into the
one room and presided over by the
one teacher. Nevertheless, pupils
taught there entered the high school
in Madison and other places and have
proved themselves equal to pupils
graduated from more up-to-date
schools.
At a meeting of the inhabitants of
Lonantaka Valley, held on June %,
1856, the plans and specifications for
this building were approved. The
building was finished in the spring
of 1857 and was occupied during the
fall term of that year. Miss Matilda
Lewis was the first teacher. She was
employed on April g. 1857, at salary
of $40 for three months. All records of
the school between the years 1867 and
1878 were lost. On May 6, 1892, the
Loantaka school district was made
a part of Madison district No. 81, the
old district lines of No. rs being abol-
ished by order of A. B. Poland, State
superintendent of public instruction.
