Religious Education

In delivering Four Minute talk the Church
Educational Campaign in Denver last Sunday night DR..
j. NJ Perkins interesting figures for church
people to think about.
He stated that in 1914 there forty-eght mil
lion children in America, of which number tweny-one
million in the Sunday schools that 1920 there
were fifty-three million children in America of which
number only fifteen million the Sunday schools
This shows increase of eight per in the num-
ber of children and decrease of nearly thirty percent
In the number attending Sunday school. He further
stated that the Jews give their children three hundred
thrty-four hours of religious training and education
each year. that the Catholics give their children two
hundred hours of religious educational training year.
while the protesants only give their children twenty
six hours of religious educational training each year
Without doubt this indicates why the rrotestants
are more liable to slip away from church training than
the Catholics or the Jews

Horoscope
"The stars Inc'ine.
But De Not Gospel"
FRIDAY, FEBRUARY II. 1921.

Astrologers read this as a quiet day
with Mars dominating in evil place.
Uranus is family helpful.
All the signs seem to point to much
unrest everywhere in the world, and
this will continue to be reflected in
this country.
Danger is seen in the focusing Of
sentiment through propaganda here IN
the United States. Mars gives warn
ing OF serious Misunderstanding with
foreign powers.
While the planet that is ever power
full in time OF war seems to warn now
that peace may not be assured. Uran-
us indicates a saner viewpoint on pub
lie questions than has characterized
many classes of men and women.
This is not a fortunate sway for do
nestle happiness. There may be seri-
Gus troubles, owing to the mental at
titude which tends toward self-analy-
sis and self justification.
Growth of faith in the mower of mind
to control material conditions will be
apparent this year.
Again heated debates in legislative
bodies are forecast and congress may
be the scene of sensational episodes.
Financial problems that effect tho
people will come much TO the front at
this time and will cause severe cr!ti-
cism.
The seers prophesy for the first few
months OF the new administration at
Washington much commendation from
the majority of men and women, but
later there may be serious discussion
that effects foreign policies.
The situation of Mercury is held to
make 1t seem necessary to prepare for
war, or at least to provide protection
against outside troubles
Growth OF materialism and increase
Of immortality will be evident as the
year advances. or at least will be rec
ognized as never before, II the stars

Persons whose birthdate It Is should
avoid all litigation in the coming year.
They should not speculate or take un-
necessary risks.
Children born on this day may be
quick-tempered and rather exacting
but they are likely to be clever in
mathematics and fond OF acquauc
sports.
