An Earnest Plea for Tolerance.

This thing of stirring up sec
tartan strife and attacking each
others religious opinions or organi-
cations is mighty poor business. We
are here on earth to.live together, to
exercise patience and kindness, to
practice the golden rule toward each
other. What is the use of aggravat-
ing the differences we may have in
religion? The Jew and the Roman
Catholic and the Protestant live here
side by side; we love our common
country; we do business together
we greet each other on the street;
we meet at social gatherings.
/ wouldn't like to have a man come
into town and lecture in a public
hall and attack the Methodist
church; therefore can understand
why Jew or a Catholic does not
enjoy having someone attack their
religious organizations. I prefer
living in good will among my; neigh
3bors.
