dicated. Indeed, there are only ten
states in the union whose education
al system is officially divorced from
religion. Idaho is one of these. In
all the others religious influences to
a greater or less extent are permitted
and encouraged. North Dakota en-
courages the study of the Bible as
literature, and gives credits for pro
fciency in Bible knowledge. Colo
RADIO encourages and rewards relig-
ious education Massachusetts re-
quires the daily reading of the Scrip
lures in the public schools. Iowa
provides for the reading of the Bible
and repeating the Lords prayer.
Pennsylvania makes Bible reading
compulsory. While the Arizona law
forbids any form of religious exer-
else during school hours, the students
are permitted to hold religious ser
vice for fifteen minutes before the
opening of the school. Further, in
all the British provinces-Canadian
and Australasian-moral and relig-
ious training is recognized and pro-
vided for.

"An conception of what
religion really means is responsible
for much of the opposition to relig-
ious training in our schools. In the
minds of many religion means sec
tarianism and has to do with creeds
and theology and forms of worship.
This is an entirely false idea of re-
lligion. Religion in IT'S primary and
deepest sense mea mans relation
to God, and mans relation to man
and is not tied up to creed or dog.

The capacity OF the Rockland Flour
MIL will have TO be doubled this year
II II is 10 supply the increasing de-
mand for its product, RED Wing and
"Royal Crescent" flour. The mill Is
now making fifty barrels a day and Is
falling considerably short in meeting
the demand for flour according TO Mr..
Freeman, the miller In charge.
The Rockland Mill is a monument TO
enterprise and capital in the Rockland
Valley. 1t was constructed In 1918,
finished In October of that year, every
dollar being subscribed locally. j. A.
Ralphs and 0 n are the proprietors.
Not a dollar of outside capital was used
Good Home Patronage.
About fifty percent Of the flour man
ufactured, is used In the Rockland
valley, q fact that testifies In large
TO the appreciation with which
il is regarded by the home people. Al
the flour is made from local wheat, Q
product which is not excelled In dual
ity In the great west. Hard Turkey
Red wheat is used for the RED Wing
brand. Hard wheat is blended with .
high grade of winter soft wheat for thu
"RoyaI Crescent" make. About hal
the flour, that not used at home, II
shipped to Albion, Burley, and Loi
Angelus. The foreign demand Is In
creasing every month.
Very Modern Equipment.
The very latest equipment In moderl
machinery makes IL possible for tn
Mill TO manufacture an unusually big
grade of flour. Mr.. Freeman point
out that in his mill the wheat travel
only ninety feet from the place IL er
tiers the mill until II comes out In tn
finished flour product, In some
the old style mills the wheat mui
travel 5000 feet before II enters u
flour sack ready for market. Natural
this long process, he says, detrac
from the flavor OF the flour The floi
manufactured from this modern pr
cess naturally bakes into a better III
vored bread, that contains more OF u
natural oils of the wheat berry.
william Freeman, the miller
charge has had fifteen years OF yair'
and practical experience In both lar
and small mills, and In the milling
both hard and soft wheat. He bas
the success OF the mill on the fact tn
every patron Is given n square de
and no effort Is spared TO make I
product of the mill a leader In eve

the transition that has been going on
In the district. The physical appear
ance of the district has been little
changed by the coming Of the clubs
which have striven to retain the charm
and dignity which have always char
acterized the old neighborhood. To-day,
however, there are upward of fifteen
organizations with headquarters In the
district.
Within the past week the Brown
University Club joined the Murray Hill
colony by leasing for a term OF three
years the five story brownstone dwelling
at 119 East Thirty-ninth street through
Walter Wyckoff of tho Wood-Dolson
Company. After the necessary altera-
tions have been made the club will move
down from its present quarters in the
Royalton at A West Forty-fourth street.
Another newcomer Is tho Psi Upsilon
Club, which recently leased a house at
2S East Thirty-ninth street for its new
quarters. Many new and interesting
features are to be embodied in the Psi
US new home. including a special dining
room for ladies and an attractive French
garden, where meals will be served.
One of the most elaborate projects Of
the kind undertaken In the district Is
that Of the Princeton Club which re-
Gently purchased the two nne old resi-
dences at the northwest corner of Park
avenue and Thirty-ninth street and the
adjoining dwelling at 80 East Thirty
ninth street. On the Thirty-ninth street
portion of the plot tall building will
eventually be erected to provide accom-
modations for the members, but tho
structures on tho Park avenue side will
not be materially changed In outward
appearance.

DWELLING at it9 EAST goth STREET
JUST LEASED BY THE ,5 SRowN UNIVERSITY

Strictly speaking the Murray Hill dis
trict is bounded on the west by zigzag
line extending along Madison avenue and
by Lexington avenue on the east. The
popular conception, however, includes
within the district practically all the
territory bounded by Thirty
street, Fifth avenue, Forty-second street
and Lexington avenue. This would
bring within the zone the Union League
Club, which has occupied its home at
Fifth avenue and Thirty-ninth street for
many years, and the Brook CLUB at Z
East Fortieth street.
One of the pioneers among the college
organizations which have invaded the
district is the williams Club. which took
UP its quarters In the house at 291 Mad1-
son avenue The clubs subsequent
growth may have been due In measure
TO the advantages Of Its location or
merely to circumstances which would
have prevailed in any other district At
any rate 1t outgrew its original accom-
modations and was forced to take over
the adjoining residence at No. 293.
Other Greek letter societies now In the
district are the Zeta Psi. at 20 East
Thirty ninth street; the Beta Theta Pi.
at 40 East Fortieth street, and the Delta
Tau Delta, at 259 Madison avenue.
Organizations of different character
with homes In the neighborhood include
the National Navy Club. a: 13 and 10
West Forty-first street; the American
Red Cross Club at 335 Lexington ave-
nue.; the Carry-On Club No. 2. at S35
Lexington avenue, and the Chemists
Club, in the tall Chemists Building at SO
East Fortieth street.
It Is possible that some of the organ
izations Just drifted into the district be-
cause 1t was the handiest available place
ut the time, and lived to congratulate
themselves on their luck afterward.
Whatever may have been their motives
or lack of motives, the district real
estate men agree, possesses some dis
tinct advantages for organizations such
as college clubs. For one thing, 1t Is
so situated with respect to both the
downtown and uptown financial centres
that members are able to drop In dur
Ing the noon hour, and this means some
thing in the way OF revenue for college
club. Again, the property values are
rot so prohibitive as those that prevail
In the older and more exclusive club
centre on Fifth avenue Just below the
park.
For those clubs that are not quite
ready to buy but desire to lease tempo
rary quarters the district IL especially
desirable. with its fine old homes that
lend themselves to club purposes with a

Business Men Outline Scheme
Of Improvement to Enhance
Realty Development.

Believing that the future welfare and
prosperity of real estate In the Borough
of Queens lies In immediate improve
ment Of rapid transit service from Man
haitian and Brooklyn into that borough,
the Greensboro Chamber Of Commerce
has appointed special transit commit
tee to bring about certain changes and
improvements. Robert w. Highbie has
been appointed chairman Of this commit
tee and Alfred NJ. Barrett, former chair
man Of the Public Service Commission,
is vice chairman. Among the problems
affecting Queens which this committe
believes should be solved, in order that
the present remarkable building devel-
opment there may continue, are the fol-
lowing:
First. Dual operation Of the Astoria
and Corona extensions by the Broad
way-Fifty- street trains Of the B.
r. T., giving through service to the lower
half Of Manhattan.
Second. Extension Of the Greensboro
subway westerly from its present ter
minus at Grand Central Station, not only
to Times Square, but a through connec-
ton with either the present Seventh

Eighth avenue, so that Queens passen-
gers may have continuous rides down.

such trolley lines throughout the bor-
ough which have ceased operation, and
the construction Of additional trolley ia
