NEED OF HIGH SCHOOL
TRAINING

A few generations ago in this coun-
try, only the sons and daughters of
the rich enjoyed the privilege of a
High School education. Many of our
greatest Americans were self-taught.
Benjamin Franklin went to school
at the age of eight and when twelve
years old was apprenticed to a
printer. But being endowed by nature
with ability and a love of study, he
rose by virtue of his innate force of
character, his keennness of mind and
his application to work.
Chief Justice John Marshall, the
foremost of our jurists, received no
other school training except that
which his parents, who were pioneers
on the outskirts of civilization, inn
parted to him, when they were not
engaged in protecting their clearing
against savage marauders or in eking
out their existence from the newly
cultivated SOIL The knowledge which
he afterwards put to such advantage
for our country, he stored up from
the books which he read as child,
as he lay outstretched on the clay
floor before log fire in his frontier
cabin.
Abraham Lincoln's entire school
ing in the backwoods of the West did
not exceed one year. Whatever else
he learned he picked up by his own
industry.
But these, and similar other great
men, were exceptions. They rose to
eminence in spite of obstacles. They
made up in talent, in work and in
perseverance for what they lacked in
early opportunity.
High Schools Are Needed.
The general rule is that for an ade-
quatn education of our children, not
The Catholic bulletin. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1911-1995, 1922-12-16

they should imbibe deeply both the
theory and practice Of religion. That
they should not only learn the Ten
Commandments, but be taught how to
keep them. For which daily instruc-
ton Is indispensable, which in our
times and circumstances demands a
school where a strong course Of re-
ligious morality can be impaired with
out injustice to those who do not be-
lieve this way.
y These are our firm religious con-
victions, these are our unwavering re-

Schools, in which brothers and sis
ters, specially trained for their pro-
fession, experienced educators who
have proved their worth, will teach.
Do not be penny wise and pound
foolish. Do not covet the few dollars
which your boys and girls might be
able to earn during the years required
for a High School training. Which is
better: for your children to be obliged
to go out into the world unprepared
for any commercial or profession pur-
suit and forced to live as common la

means of lettering themselves?
Some unthinking parents may say,
what is the use of studying certain
branches taught in q High School,
such as Latin, French and German?
Are they not aware that all modern
|ciyilization and culture have come
from the Latin language, as the
vehicle of all the learning of the past?
Do they not know that man multi
plies his efficiency according to the
number of languages that he has
learned? The history of the great
men of the past should, Of itself, be
proof that the mind is strengthened
in the process of acquiring languages.

Of our conscience. Other excellent
citizens may not agree with us, but
the Constitution of the United States
gives all her citizens these inalienable
rights.
Already there are in the United
States more than sixty millions of peo-
pie who do not profess any faith or
religion, or belong to any church. To
explain this our non-C Catholics may as
sign any reason they desire, but the
fundamental reason is that children

FOR OUR SCHOOLS.

Why do we have these denomina-

Sisters expend such heroic efforts ?
Why do our Catholic people deny
themselves in order to support two
systems Of education public and pri-
vate? There is fundamental, a most
important reason, It is this: We be-
lieye that besides secular learning our
children should be given a thorough
course in practical Christianity; that

are allowed to grow up without a
Christian training, strong enough and
thorough enough to enable them to
battle with the lawlessness and ir-
religion with which the world today
is filed. Nor can the Sunday school
be substituted with any thing like sue
