The Crude North

Up north they are crude, even IN
their lawlessness. For instance: The
other day a negro waiter named Jas
per Bryant attacked a little girl who
was playing with several of her chums
in the sand at Atlantic City. The
screams of the children drew the mob
and they set after Jasper. He didn't
run; he flew. And not once did ne
hesitate. Hot after him came the mob
its numbers augmented as each block
was passed, and its hue and cry II
creased until it resembled the roar 0,
the untiring ssea in one of its angry
moods. Faster flew the feet of the
flying Jasper and still faster beat his
now terror-stricken heart. Mob now
at heels, intent on blood, Jasper turn
ed his scared ashen face just once
then collapsed, then. died. Fright
said the doctors.
About the same time in Nortl
Louisiana a negro confessed to having
assaulted a young woman in Shreve
port, and the next day he was foun'
hanging from the limb of tree. N

Monday was a banner day in the
lives Of many boys and girls, and IN
some cases, maybe, the day that de-
termined the destiny of that boy OF
girl. Parents should, and we suppose
do, feel a great responsibility while
their children are in school. This part
Of their life is the molding period, the
time when their character is shaped
the time when they conceive their
ideals and make plans for the future
and it is necessary that every parent
be a partner in their children's school
days.
Children as a usual thing want to
learn. They are eager for new ideas
and new thoughts. They ask ques'
tons, and lots Of them, and can often
be lead instead OF driven. VI COURSE
the teacher plays a great part in lead
Ing the child, but we must remember
that the child is only under the care
Of the teacher less :han a third o.
the time of each day during the tv'
day school week, and 1t is while he Il
away from school that he gets tn
ideas that detract from his progress
and direct his mind along world,
lines.
So let's cooperate with our teach
ers for the good of our children, an
our children's school days will be va
liable days and our energy viii! not b
wasted.

1t is always much easier to say OF
anything "this is wrong" than to say
Of the same thing" this Is the way 1t
should be done"
Destructive criticism is easy. Con-
structive criticism Is difficult. 1t is
simple enough to ask "what is the mat,
ter with the church," or "what is the
trouble with religion?' and as simple
to answer, 1T is old fashioned or I'll
isn't modern enough" or 1T lacks
courage" or some other complaint
which makes no suggestion.
OF course, there is nothing the mat
ter with religion. The belief in 8
Supreme Diety, and worship Of that
Diety is an ingrained human funda
mental. The matter" Is not with TIL
religion, but with the people.
Many people place too much EN-
phasis upon the mechanics Of religion
and not enough on the spiritual sid
Of that religion. Gods word is wha
people hunger for, and this hunge
goes unsatis6ed sometimes because O
the worldly construction that has beef
placed upon Gods word.
Let the churches forget external an,
internal fight over nonessentials, an
devise new and better ways Of teachin
men and women the spirit Of true re
ligiOn, and 1t viii be the Sunday NOV
