predict that they will be very much
appreciated by the community by the
end of the school year. Other towns
nearby have had these grade orches-
tras and they have been successful.
There seems to be no good reason why
Dallas should not do as well. Miss
Irwin suggests, however, that it will
be almost impossible for the work to
be successful unless the parents coop
crate in seeing that their children, IT
they are in the orchestra, attend the
rehearsals regularly and keep up reg
ular practice at home. Regular re-
hearsals are held every Friday after
noon at 3 As in the high school build
ing. Members of the orchestra who
attend the grade building will be ex-
cused at $3.50 in order that they may
be on time. If the present plans
work out and the pupils show the
proper interest in the work, Miss lr-
win hopes to bring the orchestra be-
fore the public before very long.

lEDQ 1T0RlAL
RELIGION.

One of the most necessary les
sons that people who think, or wish
to think and use critical judgment,
must learn is that there is vast diff
ference between religion, and all the
phenomena in life that in one way or
another are associated with religion,
the men and the means used for it's
cultivation, the vehicles employed
for it's expression; in other words, all
religious institutions, creeds, clergy,
symbols and ceremonies. 1t is the
same difference as that which OBJ
talns between art, the ideal of art,
and all it's manifestations in human
life, all attempts to embody it, to
visualize it, to give it expression,
and all means used for it's cultivation
and realization. Paint, canvas,
brushes and palette are not art; nor
is every creation Of the would-be
artist work of art; nor do all the
self-appointed priests in the temple
of art really serve art; nor is art
always promoted by them, but, on
the contrary, is sometimes degraded
and corrupted. The parallel be-
tween the two ideals and their re-
spective manifestations, seems to be
quite accurate.
Yet on this subject the crassest
ignorance, the most irritating con-
fusion of thought prevails Other
wise people would not be dealing
with the subject of religion SO light
ly, SO jestingly, and sneeringly as
they sometimes do; nor would they
lay at religions door the evils and
faults for which religion is as little
responsible as true art is for the
ugly idols Of the savages; nor would

on behalf of religion-church the
ology, creed, clergy, and all para
phernalia. When we stud the his
tory of the past we cannot help feel
ing that these forces that were sup
posed to act on behalf Of religion
have great deal to answer for. The
darkest pages in history, or rather
the reddest and bloodiest, were writ
ten by them. All the crimes of the
calendar have been, and in some
places, still are, committed or insti-
gated and abetted by the forces that
are supposed to work for religion
and speak on it's behalf, but in real
ity misrepresent religion.
But let us not blame religion for
it. Let us rather strive to perfect it's
instruments, its vehicles of express
sion, their method of operation; let
us muster new forces, if the old
forces are inadequate or useless.
Let us do all we can to help re-
ligion assert itself in human life.
For human life without religion is
only animal life. In animal life there
is no purpose, and no progress, no
IDEAL and no goal. Above all do we
need religion to adjust our economic
relations. That alone would solve
most of the other troublesome prob
lens. But we need religion to guide
us Alright even in our charity and
philanthropy. In this work which
is becoming so wide spread and so
systematic nowadays, we need peo-
pie who are swayed more by the
sentiment of religion, whose minds
are tinged with religious thought.
who bring into the work little of
religions ideals and visions. The
prosaic individual who brings moth
ing but our modern business no.
tons into the work is poorly equip
ped and qualified for it, no matter
what other talents he may possess.
What we need is-more religion.

or defeated because of certain har-
rowing experiences and brutal re-
crudescences in modern life; nor
would they consider the cultivation
OF religion superhuous and unneces-
sary, something that can be dis
pensed with without loss or injury.
Religion as sentiment, religion
as view Of life, religion as a prin-
ciple Of action, is the one thing of
all others that is absolutely indis-
pensable in civilized life. We can
not think Of a we'll ordered, progress
slve society, a society that strives
for well-being peace and happiness,
without religion We cannot think
of an individual as fit member of
such a society without religion. The
absence Of religion means selfish
ness, violence, the absence of self
restraint. The absence of religion
means society of coarse, brutal or
prosaic and philistine individuals.
For the sentiment of religion is the
sentiment of human brotherhood;
religions view of life is the view of
life's goodness, and orderliness and
purposefulness; and religions prin-
ciple of action is the principle of
justice tempered with charity.
But while we cannot conceive
civilized society without religion, we
can we'll imagine all institutions, all
means and mediums, all aids, agen-
cies and instruments religion uses
for its expression, and self-promo-
ton, and all phenomena that in
some way connect themselves with
religion as disappearing, and making
place for others, better adapted,
more refined more expressive. more
serviceable. Have we not in our
Judaism most telling illustration of
that fact? The holy temple on Zion,
the sacrifices and the priests and
Levites made way for the old time
synagogue and it's worship, and the
old-time synagogue for the modern
temple and it's form Of service And
who shall say that these are final,
that religion may not find a still
more appropriate vehicle or instru-
ment should the need Of it arise?
From this point of view rigid ortho-
doXy in religion is TN ustifiab1e and
ineXcusable.
Only fools can attack or ridicule
religion, religion that makes one
feel toward his fel1ow-man as
brother; religion that makes one
see the beauty, the law and order
Of the world; religion that prompts
