Musical Missionaries
(From Minneapolis JournaD

The Minnesota of Gopher Prairie
and the boosting Babbitt is Just now
sending through the country two or
CARNATIONS that furnish an extraor-
binary demonstration of what life
really means in an agricultural state
OF the middle west. One of them, the
Minneapolis Symphony orchestra, is
cosmopolitan product of the ideal
ism Of city business men; the other,
the st. Olaf Lutheran choir, belongs
to the small town and the farm.
Making a half circuit of the coun-
try, the orchestra carries the works
OF Beethoven and Brahms, of Tschai-
kowsky and Ernest Scheling-the best
that the world has done both in this
generation and in the entire century
and half of modern music. Wher-
ever it plays, whether in New York,
surfeited with its own music, or in
the small town which halls one or
chestral concert in year as a great
civic event, it carries the message
that in Minnesota there are men and
women who care enough for so APP
parently Improbable a thing as or
chestral music to spend hundreds of
thousands of dollars in order that
their community may have the very
best of it.
The message of the St. Olaf choir
is even more significant. From the
Gopher prairies of Minnesota some
seventy boys and girls, most of them
unsteady untaught and with no more
than ordinary vocal ability, have been
brought together under the leader
ship of a man of real genius and
nodded into one Of the two or three
outstanding mixed choirs of the
United States. This chorus does not
merely represent Minnesota; it actu-
ally is Minnesota. 1t embodies all
the potentialities for altruistie Gre
alton which lie close beneath the sur
face; it proves that the farms, right
~ cultivated, can raise music as we'll
as cows and wheat.
Minnesota has been widely adver-
tised for the wealth of it's mines, the
fertility of it's lands and the natural
beauty of its scenery. The Minneap-
oils Symphony orchestra and the st.
Olaf choir are advertising the men
and women of Minnesota; not simply
few of them, who, through con-
spicuous talents, have won success and
fame, but the rank and file who, as
guarantors or ticket purchasers, sup
port the orchestra, and who, as the
boys and girls of St. Olaf College,
make up the choir. And though such
advertising may not bring returns in
dollars and cents, it has a profound
meaning of which every citizen of
the state may we'll be proud.

THE BIBLE IN IOWA
PUBLIC SCHOOLS

The action of the Iowa senate in
refusing to have the daily reading Of
the Bible in our public schools will
not pass unchallenged. Thoughtful
and able men and women have seen
the fallacy Of the action and are TAX
ing up the question. Enemies of the
highest and best things in a child's
life are not much longer to have mat
tiers their own way in the public
schools. 1t is now self-evident that
the state must be friendly to moral
teaching in the school, and that NOR
atty and spirituality must become
a definite part of the pupils training.
The hour is coming when the voters
of this state are not going to have
the morals of their children throttled
by few cold-blooded secularists and
sensualists who see nothing in life
but money and the unregulated in
diligence of bodily passions. That
kind of thing must either end or the
nation will fall! The Bible should
and is going to have definite place
in the public schools!

Sparks from the Fiery Cross
BY JOHN EIGHT POINT
"The nobest motive is the public good Virgil

There is no Klannishness in dole
full whine.
The real Klansman says little and
does much.
A Klansman should remember that
q good many people will set their
clocks according to his watch.
Hope is the Kian's halfbrother to
action, and action is the father OF
happiness.
The man who makes a business of
breaking law will soon find himself
breaking law for business.
Let your spirit do its duty,
Klansmen, yours the living creed,
Worship at the feet of beauty,
Serve your country in her need.
Let no alien power advise you,
Hold the faith your fathers knew,
Then no foe will e'er surprise you,
In this battle for the true.
No man should profess the Khan
unless he is willing to do the loyal
deeds Of the Khan.
One large part of the devils daily
business is to make right people
think Klansmen are wrong people
An American citizen should strive
SO to live that he will not want to
lick the editor for putting. his name
in the paper. The Klannish life has
nothing to fear from editors who are
not bought by alien or papal money
Klansmen never knock. They know
that men are like motors-when they
knock they lose power.

PREACHERS AND
pOTJTICS

Oi%A AA~S
Preachers should stay out of poll
tics!" How often has this bee
heard! J. II. Garrison, veteran edi
tor. has this fine word to say on tn
subject:
Even ministers of the gospel
used to spend far more time talk
ing about going to heaven when
we die than they did in urging
their members to carry their re-
ligion into business, into politics
and into all the relationships of
life, until Gods will shall be
done here on earth as it is done
in heaven. And even yet there
are many in the pews who think
the preacher should let politics
alone, meaning thereby that he
should not denounce corruption
in public, high or low, and point
out the responsibility Of the peo-
pie in such matters. The results
of this let alone policy are seen
now in the revelations at our ma
tional capital"
