An expression o f opinion on
this subject was asked fo r a
couple o f weeks ago, but to date,
little or no comment has been I
forthcoming.
The editor o f the O. A. C. sup-1

us that they are contemplating j

bulletins by printing practical1

expression o f public opinion on

Undoubtedly much better work
could be done from our pulpits,
in our schools and through our
newspapers, if more suggestions
and expressions o f public senti
