last Tuesday. His subject was
THE Plan of Religion in Life
He did not present it from a sec
tartan viewpoint, but took the sub
Ject in it's broadcast sense. He
said life demands a center. Relig-
ion gives us this center. The
ideal center is God. The laws of
the ideal center are expressed in
the ten commandments. A man
who is off center will fly to pieces
just the same as a fly wheel in
a big power plant. The control

religion. All big historical char
acters have been religious. The
center must be away from self as
others have rights that must be
respected.

msot of them successfully.
2. Many school officials recon-
mend the public school dormitory
as the best solution for housing
the school children from rural dis
tricts.
2 Rural parents who have had
some experience with the dormi-
tory plan, quite unanimously ap-
prove this method of caring for
their children while away at
school.
a. School children who have
lived in well-managed dormitories,
have shown improvement in their
scholarship, personality and coop

5. Successful dormitories have
made a special effort to provide
these rural children with the com

conveniences as their urban
friends. they will be content TO
remain on the farm.
