part: There are three spheres IN
which men and women should be ed

First. education toward and ia
God. Morality is essential 10 the

school should be converted into

baby 10 sleep. The religious condi-
ton of our schools is TO my mind one
OF the most alarming symptoms in
our modern life.
The second element is that Of cd
ucatinG students in dealing with men.
The third clement in education is
IN dealing With things. or in knowing
how 10 DO things.
How can we solve this three fold
problem OF education? / venture a
few suggestions. Personality is u
life. Example is a great teacher. The
dcnominational college has every lat
itudc in the realm OF religion, and it
is criminal II they fail TO take adj
vantage of this freedom and oppor-
tunity. Fathers and mothers all over
this country spend slcepicss nights

Tor their children. The denomina-
tlonal schools can meet this condi-
ton and go long way toward solv-
ing the problem.
Tho church has q challenge such
as IL never had before The church
