of unbelief grew and expanded and
inserted its virus into almost every
department OF human life. That is
the prime reason for the terrifying
unrest in Europe and for its gathering
clouds in this country; men banished
God and the guiding knowledge and
the restraining influence OF religion.
There is but one solution to the
problem. 1t is not the sanction Of
laws, based on force, but the recogni-
tion of God and the eternal principles
of right and wrong in every depart.
ment of the life of man. And that
means religious training and educa-
tion. This Is the only solution, and
1t is the American solution. We
should never forget that America is
Christian nation, and that religious
schools were the first American
schools. The first free American
schools taught religion as a necessary
part of the training of children. This
is an historical fact, and our parish
schools are true to that pristine Amer.

Industrial and commercial struc-

homes are most frequently attended
with loss Of life.
In 1917 il was found that So per-
cent OF all reported fires occurred

The cause of greatest damage to

tive chimneys and flues." the loss
from this source being S7,9S7, 900.
