THE BIBLE AS A
 SCHOOL TEXT BOOK
Irnr ortant Matter for the Con- cideration of the Clergy and
 Parents of the Children

Fer the development of mind, source of best ideal for citizenship and making of efficiency there is no book as resourceful as the Bible. The principles of social, economic, and practical life are no where else so clearly and attractively presented. No where do we find the aspiration. largeness of visions and elevation of ambitions so truly and beautifully resented in al! literature.
 The fundamentals of all phases of the personality of men are pre- scented most intelligibly. It must be conceded that no education is com plete with the Bible left out No life can be as useful and valuable that has not had the privileges of the teaching of this great Text Book of Life.
 It is not strange that many school and colleges are Introducing it as an essential part of their curriculum. It is rapidly being introduced in the High Schools of the states, and most effectively through the services of its clergy and pastors of the churches. The children for at least one period per week assembled for the study of | Holy Scripture under the clergyman or pastor chosen by the parents, as teacher, making it a part of their general education and knowledge.
 Many states have included it as parts of High School work for graduation, giving it equal credit . with other studies. 1t would be an up to date position for the clergy and pastors, of the churches to meet with the Board of Education and Superintendent of Schools, and consider seriously the advisability ot ! introducing that which is no longer an experiment, but tested and tried and pronounced essential. If thi: should result favorably a mass meeting of parents and teachers would bring before the community that which has splendid possibilities and endorsed by success in many places.
 A good time is to prepare for tht opening school year making a place in the arrangements of school pro gram of students for the coming year.

CANAAN TO BE FAVORED
 WITH A CHAUTAUQUA
Theodore Roosevelt Called the Chautauq1a The Peoples
 University

Lectures--Entertainments----MuslcaI
 The following is something of the nature of the program we may ex- pect:
 The General Subject Evening Lectures: American Ideals.
 First day: American Political Ideals.
 We are now facing grave political problems which must be solved. These problems are not the result of the failure of American standards, but of the American people to un- derstand, appreciate and enforce these standards; therefore, this topic is of timely interest to our citi- zens in every community, regardless of party or creed.
 Second Day: American Social Ideals. We have long since learned that we cannot live to ourselves.
 America began with the neighbor- hood at the front---he.re our princi- ples of democracy and self-govern- ment found first expression.
 The first house the Pilgrims built was Common House"---every town grew up about "A Common", a piece of land free to all.
 The great American educational institution was "common school', and our states were called "com- monwealths."
 These represent American ideals of interest held in common.
 Are we allowing classes to gener. ate in America contrary to oul ideals, and is this tendency respon sible for our discorGant social situa tion today? This is vital question
 Third Day: American Industria Ideals.
 How to live comfortably, where our living is coming from, how art we going to obtain livelihood neces sties; these are burning questions. They involve the problems of farm and market---of factory and store--o: producer and consumer, of capita and labor, and of legislation for tn' largest good to the largest nurnbe. and the execution of American ideal in government policies.
 This is our most pressing nati11a issue and it's consideration in thi lecture will concern every town ant every individual.
 First Day 'What e~yo, Worth?" or "The Value of tn Individual"
 Second Day: "A Community Pro gram," or "How to Make Yours Better Town"
 Third Day: "Getting Together, or ''How to Put the Program int Effect"

Mistaking Effect for Cause

Nothing could be much more nearly helpless, probably, than efforts to remove the belief that thunderstorms cool the air. Practi- cally everybody thinks so, says so, Even the government experts mete- orologists, all of whom know better, often use the popular phrase, or at any rate they are quoted as using them, and promise relief from hot wave when a thunderstorm comes to exert its benefcient influence.
 Yet as a matter of fact, and of what is almost obvious fact, the thunderstorm is a consequence, not a cause, of atmospheric cooling, and the popular faith only illustrates the logical fallacy of 'post hoe, ergo propter hoe" We should be grate- full, not to the storm, but to the cyclonic movement that brings along at last cooler air to condense at the point of contact between the two the watery vapor we call "hu- n1idity," and thereby releases cleo trical energy in the form of light ming.
 But, while thunderstorms do not cool the air, there is no doubt that the rain attending them causes a cooling of heated buildings and agreements, and that is a real bless ing to sweltering inhabitants of cities. And as the rain is a part of the thunderstorm, so much of credit for coolth must be accorded to it. New Haven Union.
