DR.. Eliot and
His Samaritan Religion.

Golfers Weekly directs attention to
the reply recently given by DR.. Chas.
w. Eliot to the question of whether
he believed spiritual awakening was
imminent among the people and, IL so,
what form he thought it would take.
The distinguished educator replied as
follows:
new religious sentiment seems to
me to be gradually spreading through
out the world, and especially among
young people in the United Stater.
II is a sentiment which takes small
account OF ceremonies, rites sacra-
ments, creeds, and dogmas, but inspires
an enthusiasm for the service of fam
lily. neignbor, and society at large.
Guided by the modern scientific
spirit. this sentiment is developing a
new kind OF Christianity, based on the
ethics taught by Jesus. and particu-
larly on the command Thou shalt love
thy neighbor as myself" and the par
able of the good Samaritan.
The reply OF DR.. Eliot is worth en-
larging, framing, and hanging up in
every home. He may not be entirely
orthodox. but he nevertheless appeals
to intelligence. common sense, and hu-
mainly. The Samaritan religion after
Aall is not a bad religion.

people themselves provide the way
(4) American Committees may be
divided into three Eroups:
First, these that desire better schools
than any in neighboring towns and
| cities. Such communities have pride in
providing ideal schools. There are
some such communities In Florida Is
Pensacola IN this class?
Second, those that desire to have
schools equal to the best. Such com
fnIunities wish to avoid the criticism
OF having poorer schools than the best
Of their neighbors, but for any one
OF various reasons are willing to con-
tent themselves with an Initiative de-
velopment Of the schools OF their neigh
bors. Is Pensacola yet willing even to
initiate the best school systems OF
Florida and Alabama?
Third, the communities that desire
to have schools as good as the average
of their neighbors. These communities
says this same authority, usually have
schools considerably worse than the
average. for all people usually fall a
little short of their ideals.
In which class In Pensacola, and
what is the school policy of Pensa-
mothers OF the children who are In the
schools? ! do not pretend to say. The
city Itself must decide this, must de-
eide what she is going to do, and then
progress can be made. Let every man
ask himself whether lasting progress
can be made before.
have not attempted to argue the
propositions thoroughly, but respect
fully submit To the thinking neoDIa Of
the city whether these propositions are
not really fundamental: (1) That ed
ucation is really the most important
function of government (2) That the
hope for good schools in Pensacola
rests solely upon the educational poll
Icy of the city, for that policy deter
mines what kind OF schools 1t has (3)
That the people need seriously to con-
slider the importance OF both the edu-
cational function of government and
whether the educational policy OF. the
city actually needs readtustment. (4)
That this policy will adjust itself in
accordance with the conclusions Of
Pensacola's thinking people and in ac-
cordance with the kind Of schools the
city really desires.

can look into the face OF this great
man who suffered much. and not read
there not only the lines with which
pain mad engraved It. but those deeper
lines that the travail Of the soul had
chiseled.
And yet, perhaps OF all writer's. Ste
venson has done most-certainly no
other modern writer has done more
to preach the gospel of happiness.
OF all souls, this gentle soul was the
most adventurous. In far realms Of
silence and on the high seas he trav
eled. His 'Dr. Jelxyl and Mfr. Hyde"
and his Treasure Island" both prove
this. But most we love him for those
simple songs OF childhood: for those
finer adventures into the heart Of life.
And that was the reason Stevenson
believed I'm "the number OF things
that make for happiness. His brave
had learned as he travelled out over the
wide spaces Of life, that happiness lies
at the care Of living, that it Is Graded
In the heart Of q flower. that It IS
caught in tho brilliant scarf Of an
autumn sunset, that it is found in the
strident tone of the sea. That It may
be picked from under horses feet on
country roads. or snatched from the
cIashing clangor Of a motor car. Some
times souls Fnnd 1t In still night
watches, and again at quiet f1resides,
and sometimes on the desert sands,
under the blazing sun. Sometimes in
Arctic regions, men die for it-like
kings-and sometimes men live for 1t
in quiet ways-like heroes.
But wherever one finds this gift
OF happiness, 1t comes from living
from using the many things that the
Creator put into the world for our les
soning. There are so many things TO
use, there are so many ways to use
them. And happiness comes from put
ting them to their highest uses.
Wonderful was Robert Louis Ste
venson, who found the secret Of hap
piness in living for those about him,
and who did great deeds of emprise
and fought his battles as trulyeas if
he had been a soldier of fortune in
stead OF an apprentice to pain.
