Outside of the three R's, music is one of the few things that, when learned at school, sticks in after life It isn't easily forgotten because with our churches and the many social gatherings, there is always a certain amount of practice to be had.
 Besides, the teaching of music in schools also inculcates an apprecia- tion of good music, and this is as lm- portant as to know how to sink a tune at sight.
 We need more folks who know why good harmony is prettier than barber .~op chords.

CHAPTER 8.

CHAPTER 8.
 Now as touching things offered un- to idols, we know that we all have knowledge Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth.
 2. And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth noth- ing yet as he ought to know
 3. But if any man love God, the same is known of him.
 4. As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are of fered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one.
 ,. For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, Gas there be gods many and lords many)
 6. But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.

EUGENICS AND BOUNDARIES.

Governor Ferris of Michigan seems to be staunch believer in eugen- ics He would take drastic measures to prevent the multiplication of thG unfit.
 Probably this would do Michigan lot of good if it were not for the state boundaries. A couple being de- nied connubial bliss ill the state could cross the boundary and find min- ister who is not so particular.
 The same holds true of all states. It's hard thing to make any head way in the eugenics idea if there are Gretna Greens just across an imagin- ary line.
 Such state issues are not state is- sues at all, but national. In fact, international.

MUSIC IN THE SCHOOLS.

Music in the public schools is a pretty safe proposition for any muni- cipality.
 It is of more value to the children
 especially those in the upper grades -than a lot of other things in ths schools.
 The fact is. there isn't enougB music in the land; or what there k of it, is too much of the trashy order
 How many citizens in this com- munity can sing an ordinary hymn a: sight? This includes men and wom- en.
 Most of them know the notes run up asd down, and that is about all 1heys depend totally upon the ear to learn a melody.

Tn thousands of villages and small towns in the interior Of Spain no one knows how to read or write. There are ill Spain 30,000 rural villages with out schools of any kind and many thousands which can be reached only by bridle hath, there being no higs roads or railway communication or any kind. Attendance at board schools is voluntary, not obligatory. Seventy six per cent. of the children in Spain are illiterate, and this is especially noticeable in the capital.
