J sumed wl'h the truth of the beauty of holiness and the holiness of beauty." Rev.. Wm. Seymour Short spoke on "The High Meaning of the Teacher's Work." which he defined as "a useful. lovkijr selfsairiflce." Mr. Short men tioned that the highest or Ideal results can nevr be attained in school work when the fountain head Is left out, which fountain is named In the text, "the Fear of God Is the beginning of Wisdom." - He plead for the use of the piactical and the practice of the use ful and hoped to see the time when the grand stories of the Bible would be restored to the text books. On the theme "Edocatlon and Relig ion," the Rev. Father J. F. Waters made an able presentation of the sub ject of schools with and without religi ous Instruction. The substance of some of his statements is as follows: True education must aid at the eleva tion of man's whole nature, physical, mental, moral and spiritual. Any edu cational system which neglects the moral elemjat will come to woe. This was tried for 15 years in France, when religion wis banished from the schools. The result was un enormous Increase In crime, snU.ide and Illiteracy among the young. Differences of oplrioln on relig ion prevents It3 being taught in the public schools, but this can and should be overcome. To exclude religious in struction Is to curtail the good Influen ce of the teacher where It might be most potent. If there is not room on the curriculum .hat should be remod elled to tdmlt It. Banish something less necessary. The churches cannot do Justice to the needs of the case. The home cannot. Divorces and other caus es make the home an unsuitable quan tity. Ig.ioraoe and eagerness for wealth oftn prevent proper training of the young. Whatever we would Intro duce into .he 'Ife of a nation we must first introduce Into the schools. "If I might control the school. I would guar antes the home, the church and the state." THE EXCURSION.
