THE sa mespirit is manifested in

What the country needs is a new
spirit in education. We must learn
that commercial, athletic and civil
success is not the highest ideals of life.
Better ethics are needed nour life. We

BIZ WALTER D. HICKMAN

From the seed of good deed plant
ed yesterday morning at the Circle
Theater there probably will bloom the
future Indianapolis Symphony Or
chestra.
The seed was an appreciation CON
cert rendered to Alexander Ernestin-
off, who for about forty years has
been a moving spirit in the musical
life of the city. More than seventy mu-
sicians Of Indianapolis donated their
services.
The fruit Of the seed undouotedly
will be a symphony orchestra such
as Cincinnati and other cites have.
AS the great audience sat in the
theater yesterday morning and lis
tened to the orcestra play under the
baton of S. Leopold Kohls, director
of the regular Circle orchestra, it
seemed to me new appreciation of
symphony music was born. 1 AMI sure
every one present resolved that In
dianapolis shall have its own sym
phony orchestra. Several of the mu-
siclans, every one Of whom donated
their services to this concert. ex-
pressed the hope they could get to-
gether once a month for sucn con.
certs.
1t is a compliment to the city that
every musical organization backed
this concert. The proceeds Will help
make the winter of Mr. Ernestinoff's
lie mora like spring. 1t is still more
wonderful to hear indianapolis APP

CONSCIENCE IS
INTERPRETER Of
TRUE RELIGION
linking of Mental Conscious
ness With Truth Given as
Definition by Or. Hyde.
BIZ THE VISITOR

"If my mental consciousness tells
me that two and two are four. my
moral consciousness is just as
authoritative when it speaks, say, Of
any or all Of the ten commandments"
declared DIR. NJ. B. Hyde in speaking
on Conscience" at the Grace NJ. Z.
Church Sunday night.
There was no better interpreter
of the spirit OF religious TRUTH" he
said, than John. In John 800 we
read, For if our hearts condemn US,
God is greater than our heart, and
knoweth all things
There can be no bigger and
certainly no more important question
for us to consider than that of con-
science. The sense of responsibility
which all men feel rests on the con-
science. 1t is a very significant fact
the scriptures never raise the ques-
ton of the authority Of the con-
science. We can very properly raise
the question, Can we have an abb
solutely accurate conscience"
Harmony With Truth.
MY answer Is, Yes when we get
Into harmony with truth; truth be-
H9g guide for conscience. When
ever the intellect discovers truth. the
conscience will discover the right.
Or in other words, the mistakes Of the
intellect mark the mistakes Of the
conscience.
1.-THE trouble with the heather is
not with his conscience, but with his
intellect. Line up mis- intellect with
truth and he automatically reverses
his conscience.
Naturally the question arises as
to whether truth can be clearly seen?
We must understand that conscience
has to do with moral truth and the
facts of the conscience can be
weighed and measured just as dis
tinctly as any class of facts in life
and experience. We can test this by
consciousness.
What shall we do with conscience?
We answer we can do two things
with it. First, we can be true to 1t
and obey it, and secondly. we can
dull it but never kill 1t out.
All literature will so attest and
the Scriptures will affirm" he said.
