pleasure to read your story OF
Amadama' bread. 1t is not poss-
ible to produce old-time breads
with our modern milled cornmeal
and white flour. also 1t is not
possible nowadays to buy mo-
lasses anything like the old-time

hand-mill can grind their own
grain even yet. But your ANA
dana bread recipe is well worth
preserving. A combination of
dark and light brown sugar made
into syrup will, find, give a fla

CITIZENSHIP PRIZE
TO BE STRIVEN FOR

In the Unitarian Church yesterday
the Rev. w. A. Vrooman. pastor
took as his theme in the morning
"The Menace OF Ignorance" In
Illustrating the value and the dan
gers Of universal franchise DR.. Nroo-
man said that democracy opens the
doors OF opportunity and says that
regardless OF birth or caste every
man and woman has an equal right
to enter the ruling class. The danger
is that ignorance may seize the reins
OF power and b,indly drive the State
into disaster. The only safety is in
universal and compulsory education
that will include the whole OF human
nature, moral as well as intellectual,
said DR.. Vrooman.
He denounced the prevailing delu-
sion that TO be born in a democratic
state gives anyone the right to be-
long 10 the ruling c,ass Of citizens.
Everyone should have the right 10
all the opportunities TO qualify and
TO enter that class. the pastor said.
But the divine right OF one man TO
rule is no more dangerous than the
doctrine OF the divine right Of an
ignorant mob TO rule. An unln-
structed democracy may become the
greatest menace TO civilization and
to peace. Citizenship in modern
democracies has been made too
cheap. An illiterate Negro or white
biackguard can kill the vote OF the
President OF the United States. DR..
Vrooman pointed out. He said he
would make citizenship the prize TO
be gained and within the reach OF all
who are mentally and morally
normal. To belong to the ruling
class. however, a man or woman
should possess sufficient mentally to
acquire a primary education. sufi-
cient industry to earn a living in
come and a good enough character
at least TO keep out of jail and to be
free OF the crime OF giving or taking
a bribe.
