According to many cartoonists and ftrmiy men
of former days, the typical Sunday school teacher
was a very old fashioned peraonage out of touch
with tlie spirit of Iris age. But actually, if it bod
not been for the men and women who hare per­
formed this often thankless task, a great many
young people would have come up without the
least knowledge of religion or common honesty and
morality.
The task Of the Sunday school teacher was
easier in the days when there was home govern­
ment and family discipline. In these times when so
many children do just wEat they want to, it is
more difficult to keep a Sunday school class well
regulated.
But enthusiasm and earnestness can
accomplish wonders, and people who give time and
thongbt to this work never regret i t
The teacher is greatly helped wheie he is given
text books and lesson material calculated to in­
terest the young people of these times. If such lit­
erature deals merely with facts and information
about the Bible, the sophisticated young.crowd may
declare that they want none of i t
The modem young people are constantly seeing
highly dramatic movies with exciting plots, and it
seeras to take an element of the romantic and
dramatic to attract their attention. While they
may not listen to information and moral lectures,
they will listen with open mouths, if someone can
present some good idea in story form, appealing to
their sense of the adventurous and heroie.
The Bible stories and truths, with, illustrations
in modem life, can all be put in that form, and they
will often have to be, to attract the attention of
the youth of these swift moving days, Great credit
should be given to the self sacrificing men and
women of Ashland who have done this fine work,
and they have made a contribution of incalculable
value to the community.
T h ird P r e sid e n tia l T erm s
The fpwrtron whether a president should ever
be giveft Y1 third term or not will bo prominently
considered this year, though, aomm-claim, that Mr.
Coolidge’s first term not being »whole one, the
old rule does not apply to him.
It is argued against third terms, that the
American people by long experience have concluded
that after a man holds that exhausting position for
two tenaa, be should retire and give someone else
a chance to show what he can do, also that a new
man would bring in new ideas, and check the
tendency to develop bureaueratie government
Ou the opposite side, it is declared that the
anti-third term feeling originated in a time when
the old forefathers had just escaped from the
tyranny of'Great Britain, and they were fearful that
their president might develop tyrannical power and
become a permanent ruler, which conditions do not
•Pfdy ib > w . Also that bumness corporations employ
people as long as they give good service, and the
government could well do the same.
It is up to our people to study these and similar
arguments and decide which is the more convincing.
T h e P le d g e o f O b ed ien ce
The form anggested by the English church
bishops for revision of their prayer book, drops the
word “ obey” from tli ebride’s vow in the marriage
service.
*
In this country the great majority of brides
have not promised to obey their husbands for many
years, and it is suspected that most of those who
did so had a mental reservation in their minds.
The women of America long since became their own
bosses and the huslmnds feel themselves lucky if
they do not become the family bosses also.
