The Presidents Message.
Not only have the World war and
the events transpiring since the
armistice impressed US all anew with
the use and the value Of the public
press, but they have demonstrated the
possible danger which resides IN a
press too freely employed for mere
propaganda" the president stated IN
his message.
"On the whole, 1t serves splendid
purpose in the circumstances Of war
time; but we newspapermen could IN
dulge ourselves in no more grievous
error than to assume that propaganda
is the first or even leading aim OF
a properly conducted press.
II cannot but feel that the primary
purpose OF the press, as a social in
stitution. is the opening OF mems
minds, rather than the closing OF
them. Propaganda aims primarily at
shutting up the mind against other
conclusions than those which the
opagandists design TO implant. Edu-
cation, on the contrary. aims to open
the mind, to prepare it to make 1t re-
ceptive and urge 1t to formulate It's
own conclusions.

Seminary Work Of L. D. s. Church
 Designed To Fill Much Felt Need

'"The ethical value of a study of the Bible would give our boys and girls different attitude. The aues- tion Am I my brothers keeper? would then be answered with a strong, I am,' where as we now hear the answer in a braggadocio spirit, I'll look out for number one
 If childhood and youth are the formative periods. the periods when the mind is alert to grasp instruc- tions; the period when right or wrong becomes dominate, then the duty is our to provide for every aid, help, means and opportunity to make the right dominant.
 ITO secure this, the Mormon church established a seminary in Mesa as it has i1 other places, which would give to the boys and girls attending the high school an opportunity of studying the Bible while they are getting their high school training. The class meets every school day from to 12 o'clock and from 12.45 to 3:45 o'clock. Eight classes are held each day So as to make it possible for the pupil to come to seminary at the Second Ward church any free period he may have from his high
 
 in the eight classes, or an average enrolment of 20 in each class. The pupil is in class for 35 minutes and prepares assignments.
 "The Outlook for Sept. 14 had an article which congratulated the uni- versailles that are now giving credit for Bible study upon examination or cerditable certification. If our high schools in Arizona would give part l. many high schools in the United States, there would be an effort in all communities to have the boys and girls become acquainted with the great truths contained in the Book of books.

Seminary work in the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is explained in the following article prepared especially for this edition by Prof. L. E. Eggertsen. in charge of the seminary educational pro- gram:
 "The edition of Ladies Home Jour- nal for November says:
 "'There is no greater need in our present day civilization than a knowledge of and a love for the Bible. No one who knows the Bible and learns how to read it for the miracles of inspiration, beauty and wisdom it contains will remain uneducated. No one to who the Bible is closed book is educated'
 gro quote Prof. Phelps of Yale: Everyone who has a thorough knowledge of the Bible may truly be called educated and no other learn ing or culture, no matter how exter.- sive or elegant, can. among Euro peans and Americans, form a proper substitute. Western civilization is founded upon the Bible. our ideas, our wisdom, our philosophy. our lite- rature, our art, our ideals, come more from the Bible than from all other books put together.
 
 the great need for Bible knowledge among the young people, have tried in various ways for many years to meet the situation. The schools of Christian America put the Bible so far from it that the child never knows of such a book only as he comes to hear of it and it's contents through church utilization. United States commissioner of education, F. P. Claxton, said: 'sThe day will come when the Bible will be read in the public schools just as any other book
 May we hope that day is near at hand. It will come soon if men and women will throw aside church prej- udice and animosity and think of the Bible as Gods word in human les- sons for elevating and uplifting man kind.
