Bible story of the subjects life. Here are
twelve men and a leader in very ancient

There were twenty weight pupils in the
room. OF these eleven were six years old,
nine were eight years old, four were seven

one, a Protestant child, was ten years old

question was asked only when the identity
Of the figures had been established. the
result, as compared EEOACoSOA SSOs1S
very discouraging experience in the public
schools of a large city, was most con-
soling.
Not one child failed to recognize the
picture as a representation Of Our Lord
and His Apostles. Each one pointed out
the figure Of Christ. Two Of the twenty
eight said they were eating but gave no
further explanation. Twenty-six said they
were eating the Last Supper Twenty
one said, Our Lord is changing the bread
and wine Into His Body and Blood. One
said. Our Lord is making the Blessed Sac

significance Of the picture. Only two failed
to realize what was being done, Every
child In the room was able to recognize
the figure Of Jesus Christ"
It will be obvious to every one that the
ability of the Catholic school children to
understand the picture was due to the fact
that they received religious instruction
every day Of the week. This does not
make the complete ignorance Of the public
school children any the less remarkable.
But the mental altitude Of the Catholic
school children was very dnerent from
that Of the public school children in an
other respect. Not only could the little
Catholics recognize the Saviour. but they
could tell what the gestures Of all the
Apostles meant. These gestures. il will
be recalled. meant little or nothing to the
public school children of Michigan In
several cases the public school children
grossly misinterpreted the gestures. as, for
instance, when one Of them said that st.
Simon's Outstretched palms meant This
is all ! have" No such grotesque misin-
depreciation was made by any Of the Cath
Ollie children.
Professor Scott spoke OF these gestures
90 ohAnAoNCu movements VI Tue nAnue, so
characteristic Of Italians and Southern
peoples generally" He evidently thought
that the unfAmiliarity of animated South
ern gestures was one reason why our pub
lie school children failed to understand
. them, but this proved no difficulty to the
Catholic children, who saw a meaning in
every little movement.
In connection with these tests n IA
pointed out that many European artists
have created very effective pictures nv
placing the Saviour amid modern persons
and surroundings. The French artist
Lhermitte's picture OF Christ In the
Peasants Home" and Jean Beraud's
Christ at the Partisan Supper Party
may be cited as two examples OF a CON
siderable number. Always the Saviour IN
these pictures brings an atmosphere OF
holy peace, eKcites renofse afiuns the
sinful or produces sacred influence In
some way. In view OF Prof Scutt's tests
it is reasoned that the Saviour could have
no such influence on a gathering OF Amer
lean public school children. tor they sim
ply would not recognize Him II He came
down the street or entered their homes.
