write and spell, and add plus ? and
get 4, and I'll grant you we will have
emptier iails, penitentiaries, reforma-
tories, House of Corrections, pool
halls, saloons, dance halls and movies
But we will have larger Sunday
Schools, Churches and young peoples
Bible classes.
Eighty-five percent Of present day
crime is committed by youths under
% years of age. In a survey of ten
million criminal cases IS percent new
er attended Sunday School. 27 mil
lion growing up without spiritual
training, 81 million under the age of
25 years without any kind of re-
ligious training. Wouldn't it be better
to see we got the Bible in the schools
we now have than building a lot of
fancy schools? | am asking the public
this question.
| am quite sure this will never APP
pear in print, because it is too close
to the truth, it will hurt Anyway, l
have gotten it off my chest.
