READ, Managing Editor ASHLAND DAILY TIDINGS I a t th e A shland, O regon P ostofflce a s Second OUT OUk WAY / The Bible School Always to the forefront on any movement whioh tends to make Ashland a better place in which to live, the fathers and mothers of this city are sup­ porting this year a full-time week-day bible school. Last year the week-day schqol was conducted on a part-time basis and if proved an unqualified suc­ cess from its very inception. Indications thus far give assurance that no mistake was made when it . was decreed that a bible school teacher should be employed on a full-time basis for this Splendid work, as all classes are well attended. Added impetus to the week day bible school movement will be given *at a rally to be held at the Methodist church tomorrow evening. All phases of the plans for this year will be thoroughly discussed and steps taken to insure the retention of this worthy project throughout the school year. . Bible school training for one day a week as a part of the school work of grade pupils is a splen­ did thing. It is not compulsory, but elective with pupils and their parents. But it cau be said to the everlasting credit of Ashland parents and children that compulsion is not necessary. Those who are interested in the moral welfare of their children as well as their mental and physical training will do well to attend this mass meeting at the Methodist church tomorrow evening. It is a good movement and desires united support. f e r tW. H- PB B K D ÍS , N e v i E ditor By W illiams What a contrast it would be.
