He struck the center OF the town

A horse took fright and ran away
When he whizzed by his nose,

Or something should go wrong

At forty miles an hour.

PRESIDENT KELLY
ASSA|LS HONAN'S
DECISION ON BIBLE
Earlham Head Charges At
torney Generals Opinion
Against Use of Bible Die
tated by Prejudice.

That Attorney General Honan was
dictated by prejudice In deciding
aaginst the use of the Bible In the
public schools and that the question
will now get into politics was asserted
BY President Kelly, of Earlham col
lege, this morning.
Our campaign to have plan in
stalled in the school system whereby
credits could be given for Bible study
done outside school hours has been
cordially received throughout the
state" he said. In many cities steps
have already been taken toward adopt
ing the plan. Mr.. HOnan has been
personally prejudiced against this
thing from the beginning. He is more
Of politician than a lawyer and |
have no doubt his adverse decision
was made with view to political in
tereSt.
Handicaps School Work.
His decision to the effect that the
school can give no credits except for
work done in its own regular sessions
flies in the face of the most progress
sive methods now being used over the
state 1t established a new principle
which will greatly handicap the work
of the state Board of Education and
will involve them in no end OF diff
ficulties I have no doubt that the
whole matter will speedily find its
way into politics and upset the school
situation in Indiana.
according to Mr.. Honan's idea. no
body knows anything, nobody is able
to teach anything except teacher in
the public school And he doesn't
seem to think that person can learn
anything unless he learns it from a
professional teacher. The idea that
the school cannot give credits except
for work done during its own sessions
is absurd.
Prevents Other Credits.
IF his position holds good, it will
make it impossible for high schools to
give credit for work done in parochial
schools or under direction of private
tutors. Also it makes illegal the prac-
ti0e employed in number of Indiana
cities of giving credit for work done
under controlled conditions in fac
tories and at home.
The whole trend of things in edu-
catiC.l Is to recognize the fact that
knowledge is knowledge whether it is
gained in school or out and that the
student should have credit. not merely
for the time spent in school. but for
his ability and knoledge."
President Kelly said that among the
lndiana cities especially interested in
the Bible study plan which he had
championed, indianapolis was most en-
thusiastic and that he believes the in
terest aroused would not permit the
project to lapse, but would lead its
promoters to work out some kind of a
plan that will get around the attorney
generals decision.

KEEVER PUBLISHES
COUNTY AGENT STAND
New Garden Township Trus-
tee Explains Methods En-
ployed in Making His
Census.

Claude S. Keever, New Garden tow n
ship trustee, has submitted the fol-
lowing:
Il wish to make a brief reply to the
assertion quoted in Friday evening
Palladium from Mr.. 0. B. Hinshaw
stating that | tried by leading ques-
lions to make him say that he was not
in favor of Mr. Cobb for another year.
and that in taking the census of the
other farmers of this township | had
in the same manner lead the weaker
ones to give reports unfavorable to Mr..
Cobb.
Il wish to refute this statement |
spent two days taking this census. and
endeavored to get an expression from
every farmer who visited town on
these two days. felt this TO be the
best way of securing a representative
opinion of this township. and | wanted
such an opinion. unbiased as possible,
in formulating my own position as re
CARDS the retention of Mr.. Cobb. | re-
allied that questions put persons.
either for or against MIR. Cobb. would
likely be construed as leading. and
tried to ask as few as possible. Notes
were taken from each man interviewed
and were as carefully recorded If IA
vorable to Mr. Cobb's retention as they
were if against him. These have been
tabulated and are on file in my office
for any one caring to see them.
Defines His Position.
In this connection | wish also To
define my position in the matter OF
the retention of Mr.. Cobb as county
agent. AS representing the people of
New Garden township with one vote
in the county board of education mat
tiers, / feel that my actions should he
along the line of the sentiment of the
ma jority of the people of this town
ship. felt some weeks ago that senti-
ment here was not such as to justify
my going to the county board OF edu-
cation meeting and becoming a party
TO resolutions asking for the return OF
Mr. Cobb | have since taken the
above mentioned census. and while
there are several who express them
selves favorable to Mr.. Cobb's reten-
ton. the greater number express them
selves in a manner that confirms me in
the belief that the sentiment OF the
majority in the township is against
him. | therefore, shall not be a party
to resolutions favorable TO Mr. Cobb's
return unless convinced that major
lty sentiment in New Garden township
is favorable TO such action.
IF by properly registered vote of the
people of New Garden township re-
cording those both for and against the
retention of Mr. Cobb the majority
should be found to be in favor of him,
would be one to ask for his return.
