Religious organizations, con-
WINGED that public schools should
include religious training in the
daily routine, demand that the Ten
Commandments be read to the
children at least once week.
Wouldn't "The Sermon on the
Mount" be better reading for
children than the Ten Command
ments? In a general way every
child of ten knows of the Ten Com.
mandments, or as many as child
should understand.
Two or three Of the Command
ments are fortunately not neces-
sarv to the child up to fifteen.
Why not leave religion to relig-
ious teachers, and public school
education to public school teachers,
and keep the two separate, which
has been the American plan thus
far?
A man, just dead, was at one
time a clergymen in the Protes-
tant Episcopal Church. Later he
belonged to the Greek Orthodox
Church, and when he died ne was
one of the Gray Friars in a Roman
Catholic monastery.
You admire such earnest seek
ing after truth and wonder what
this man of three religions learned
about religion when he passed over
to the other world.
Did he find that only one religion
is officially recognized above, or Is
one better than the others, or does
it all depend on how you act to-
ward your fellow man, the Creator
of the Universe not being so much
interested in what you think about
Him? Definite answers would be
interesting.
President Coolidge says the
States should help the national
Government to enforce the dry
law. So they should, out OF re-
speet for Constitution and law.
But while the necessary seventy
five per cent of the States ratified
the Constitutional Amendment,
nearly one hundred per cent violate
it, and their juries sympathize with
the violators.
The question for the President
and the nation is this: How can
the use of whiskey be stamped
out? What is to be done to STOP
drunkenness and open drinking OF
bootleg whiskey among school
children? Prohibition seems to
