"RENDER UNTO CAESAR"

On the mooted question of the use of foreign Ian
in the churches, quote with approval the fol-
lowing discussion by Editor Bromstad in the Milan
Standard Foreign language schools menace,
foreign language newspapers mistake, but foreign
language churches cannot be dispensed with without
striking at the institution which has been the
of all inspiration for good citizenship and advancing
civilization 1t is sad but true that during the war;
certain foreign language churches fell short
serVance of their civic duties by pastor and people, but
this does alter the minor
organizations of the church improperly
therefore it would be to insist the whole
church surrendering the best proper
ton in order that might incidentally promo-
ing an incidental agency in Americanzaon The prob
lem in AmercanizatiOn disclosed by the DEGREES
that the foreign-anguage school CO. that colon
ization' schemes must be discouraged and that the

"At the annual meeting of the Southern Minnesota
district of the Norwegian Lutheran Church America
held recently at Albert Lea Prof. E. Hove delivered
very interesting address Post War Problems

full in the Albert Lea Tribune Among the problems
that the professor discusses in his address is the
language question the relation the

cratic in its principles of church government and
in harmony with American institutions than the Luth-
eran church." says the professor According to it
stands squarey for that fundamental principle of all
religious iberty-separation of church. He
protests against the attempts of legislation restricting
the preaching of the gospel to the English language
only as violation of religious freedom From the
professors arguments deduce that the
church is to save souls and that the right
use the language best adopted for this purpose
the heart language of him who listens Render unto
Caesar the things which Caesars and unto God the
things that Gods is Christs own rule governing
the relationship OF the church and the state Therefore,
Prof Hove holds that the state respect the
of the church to exist free, sefgovernng organiza
ton and that the church the other hand should not
interfere with the civil government but teach its
bers to honor and obey it and to willingly and con-
scentously perform their civil duties This he claims

SOLDIERS AID IN NORTH DAKOTA

The Result.

A prOhibitionist said at a dinner:
"Booze spoils everything. Yes, it
even spoils the grand game of base
ball.
1.-Two local teams in a small town
once agreed to play match game,
and the proprietor of the Red Dog
saloon took the team he favored out
side and said:
":Boys, for every run you make to-.
day I'll give you Il keg Of beer
by a curious coincidence the pro
prietor of the Tin Can saloon made
an exactly similar speech to the other
team. And what was the result?
1.-THE result, gentlemen, was that the
two saloonkeepers rushed frantically
out on the diamond in the sixth
inning and said the game must be
stopped at once. The score stood at
50 to ST."
