probation OF the Old Book.
Thoughtful parents and edu-
Gators must consider here an
other matter, namely, that the
students OF Stetson acquired the
habit of thinking in terms of
Biblical phases and meaning. The
sub-conscious mind becomes rich
and full of the moral, ethical and
inspirational elements of this
teaching, and their future careers
are permanently and profoundly
marked by the long continued
hearing Of the Word"
Now, II is not the intention here
to urge that DIR. Hulley has hit
upon the best and only way to
teach religion in the college, but
IL can be stated without ques-
ton that he is actually teaching
religion and in a manner that is
most effective.
Moreover. when we consider
the fact that some Of our big edu-
Cational institutions have prac
tically discontinued public wor-
ship OF any kind, the teaching of
he Bible and religion included,
we are let to wonder IL the Stet.

STORIES OF
FAMOUS

A T one time OF his life Frank
~ lin was a strict vegetarian.
He believed that the taking
OF life for the sake of providing
food was murder. Fishing in par
ticular, he abhorred, because no
one could contend that the fish
which were caught could in any
way have wrought any harm to
their captors.
One day Franklin-Mr. James
Parton tells us in his Life of
Benjamin Franklin''-was on
sloop which was becalmed on
certain island. The sailors. as is
still the custom when a ship is
becalmed, amused themselves by
fishing. Franklin witnessed the
catching of the fish with deep
regret. But soon there came to
tantslize his nostrils a most al
Turing odor from the frying. pan.
so. as Franklin used to tell the
story, he went over his reason
ing again to see II there was not
flaw in it. 1t. occurred to him
that when the fish were opened
he had seen smaller fish in their
stomachs. "Ah" said Franklin.
IF you eat one another, l don't
don't see why we may not eat
your'
SO Franklin dined upon the fish
very heartily, and thereafter ate
what others ate. When telling
this story Franklin ended with an
observation which is often at
tributed to Talleyrand, but which
we are assured was a familiar
joke with Franklin. This was:
80 convenient a thing 1t is to
be reasonable creature, since II
enables one to find or to make a
reason for everything one has
mind to do"

nR LINCOLN HULLEY,

settled upon a method of teach
ing the Bible and religion which
r unique in the history of college
=, and the significance of which
ifould certainly be inquired into
y the college administrative
bodies OF this country.
DIR. Hulley's method is to as
eInble the students every morn

lures 10 them; Every student
must be in his place for this
exercise, and the faculty mem

r'idfng the president offers the
payer. Then, a second hymn
e ises the twenty-minute exer-
Cse.
This Bible reading is done in a
Chol2rly manner. The Scrip.
lures are both read and Inter.
prsted-as literature, as science.
- art. as ethics, as admonition,
az inspiration, but never as mere
s.rtarian doctrine. The whole
sfiir, rightly considered, amounts
to lengthy course in Bible
study-ls0 lessons per year, 72O
