a Sermon for TODAY
by Rev. John Il. Gum

eousness shall reign and all man.
kind shall know the blessedness of
peace and good will.
In point of time we may yet be
further away from paradise restored
than from paradise lost, but through
the vision Of faith the distant ideal
comes enchantingly and hopefully
near. 1t is true, there are many so
lacking in faith that they have
never caught the glorious vision.
Groveling in the dust OF despair,
they shake their heads doubtfully
and say, 1T it all too vague" while
they of a cynical spirit, protest
against disturbing things as they are,
saying, Whats the uuse? If men
want TO do wrong and women don't
want to do right, it can't be helped;
society must have It's redeeming vices:
all things are subject to compromise;
we can never have a perfect social
order" But IN the presence Of such
pessimlsm the man Of true faith In
the great realities of divine truth is
enabled to keep his eye fixed on the
morning star Of hope as he presses
ION to the boundless waste
On to the city Of God"

a Decision ri eeded

RI REFUSAL of the United States Supreme
in Court to review the case of Charlotte
Anita Whitney is a severe blow to those who
hope freedom of speech may become a reality
in the United States instead of mere constitu-
tional guarantee.
Miss Whitney graduate of Wellesley,
niece of former Justice Stephen j. Field of the
United States Supreme Court, former vice
president of the National American Woman
Suffrage Association, of the College Suffrage
League, the California Civic League, and the
State branch of Collegiate Alumnae must go
to jail in California for from one to fourteen
years.
She goes to jail not because she committed
any illegal act, but because she was convicted
of belonging to a political party which the
courts found to be illegal.
Evidence showed that Miss Whitney had
vigorously opposed the statement of principle
which made her organization a communistic
party, She took no part in the organization
after it had adopted this principle
Her case raised squarely the issue of

Plenty of Good Music Is Planned for This City

n My one of the founders will
IL be present tonight at Masonic
- Temple, when a concert com
memorating the fortieth anniversary
of the Indianapolis Saengerbund will
be given.
OF the ten members whose names
appear on the first roster of the
society, but two are living today;
Gottlieb Leuckhardt and Carl Haupt,
the latter. however, too feeble TO at
tend.
Leuckhardt relates some interest
ing history of the early days of
the society as follows: Our organ
ization meeting was held on S.
Missouri ST.. in the home Of John
BAIL, and our rehearsals were like
wise held there. We lived in diff
ferent sections of the city, some
quite far away from the BAIL home,
but our meetings were always fully
attended, rain or shine. Our d.
rector was Henry Karch. and we
learned our songs as he played them
to us on his violin, the only instru-
menI we COulQ aIIOrQ.
Later, as our membership in4
creased the kitchen in the homo of
BAIL became too small and we
rented a small room in the former
German-American Training School
on Maryland ST., east OF Delaware,
known as the G.. A. r. Hall, where
w remained for several years. Later
we obtained more spacious quarters
and lastly rented the present hall,
4912 S. Delaware st.
The society since the early days
of which Leuckhardt speaks, has
developed into a formidable organ
ization; forty active singers, thirty
five trained musicians, who will
participate in the concert to be
given, besides hundreds of passive
members.
Lillian A. F'lickinger, we'll known
in musical circles as u concert
soprano, will be the soloist; Miss
Paulina Kipp at the piano. Henri
Jonas is the piano soloist and Karl
Theodore Froinmherz is the con-
ductor.
On Monday evening. Oct. 26. SIS
o'clock. a program will be given at
the Indiana College Of Music and
Fine Arts by Miss Marthabel Geisler,
pianist, pupil of Pauline Roes. and
Miss Irma Flutro Reader, pupil Of
Clarence NJ. Weesne- assisted by
the boys quartet Of Technical High
School. The members Of the quartet
are Charles Bolte, first tenor;
Thomas Rhoades, second tenor.
Joseph Foy, first bass, and Paul
Boots, second bass.

TOO MANY
SUBJECTS

VANS WOOLLEN, Indian
+ apolis banker, addressing
thu classical section of the
Indiana Teachers Association,
Thursday, said that the need of
the day is education to help young
people to become tolerant and
thoughtful rather than education
for profitable employment.
He believes too many subjects
are included in school curricula
and pupils get a smattering of
many things instead OF thorough
grounding in broad fundamentals.
Probably he is right. 1t is said
that public school children are
studying twice as many subjects
as they did fifteen years ago with
out any increase in school hours.
Unless they are twice as smart
they can't cover each subject as
thoroughly as their predecessors.
The growing complexity of edu-
cation merely reflects the complex.
ity Of modern life.
Human activities have become
specialized. Tho families Of the
pioneers who settled Indiana were
self-contained economic units
They built their own homes, raised
their own food, made their own
clothes, cobbled their own shoes
and gathered their own medicinal
herbs. Their descendants are
pecialists-doctors, lawyers, corn
kings and beekeepers whose
health and happiness depend on
the unhampered output Of other
specialists.
The field Of human knowledge
has undergone the same expansion
and specifications. Aristotle wrote
all that was known in his day of
the natural sciences In few
books. Now a scientists devotes
his whole life to the study OF the
bees knees or some similar special.
ty.
The purpose Of the public
schools Is to teach the children
how 70 think, not to prepare them
for specialized vocations In q spe.
cialized world. Public schools that
attempt to usurp the functions Of
professional. business and trade
schools. miss the whole point Of
education.

BARRING OUT
FOREIGNERS

FLAMES =. GOODRICH, form
er Indiana Governor, who
llJ has spent some months in
Russia, is bringing back to his
Hoosier home a 22-year-old Rus
sian countess to whom he and
Mrs. Goodrich have become at
tached.
He had difficulty in persuading
the State Department to admit the
young lady to this land Of the free,
etc. That's characteristic of the
State Department. 1t shudders
whenever @ foreign visitor who
has been in proximity to bolshe-
vism or radicalism approaches our
shores.
Last year it wouldn't admit
Count Karolyi, Hungarian revolu-
ZIONIST, until no promised not to
make a speech while here. In
Montreal he made the speech our
State Department so much feared.
The speech was less radical than
the Ten Commandments and no
more intlammatory than a bowl OF
bread and milk.
Then a month ago the timid
spinsters in the State Department
refused to let Saklatvala. a mem
Der Of the British parliament, visit
this country because he is pro
fessed communist. The British
Empire has withstood without
blinking the fulminations of this
Hindu radical, but apparently our
public guardians think America is
of softer fiber and more easily led
into a red wilderness.
Now the State Department has
just denied Countess Karolyi per-
mission 70 enter the United States
as the guest Of a prominent Penn
sylWnia citizen. She holds rev.
dictionary views similar to her
husband and might air them while
here.
Restriction of immigration IS
proper. The melting pot melts too
slowly to let all aliens who would
swarm in. But barring out a few
conspicuous foreign visitors be-
cause Of their political views is
silly. II such visitors by their
speeches can make 10000, 900 peo-
pie see red and blow American In
stitutions to pieces. the United
States had better hide under the
bed--it'g too weak and fragile to
face the world.

MATES are not infallible.
There is nothing more dangerous
to traffic than automatic stop-and-
go signals that don't go. They lull
drivers to a feeling OF security that
doesn't exist. 1t is too much to
hope that automatic signals will
be perfected that will never get
out OF order. Such ia no more

great lyric tenor, will be the assist

The choral program will include
excerpts from grand opera and
oratoric works, sacred motets and
modern secular part songs. The

"Christus." A real bit of grand opera
