I ' On Tuesday evening June 25th a
very important meeting was held at
the Baptist church in Grass Valley.
The meeting was composed of the
members of the two boards of reli
gious education recently formed in
Moro and Grass Valley. Both boards
agreed to use the opportunity the
new law affords for teaching the
Bible to the children during the
school hours, ths children having
received permission to attend these
studies.
The hope was expressed
that the three larger towns of the
county Wasco, Moro and Grass Val
ley might work together on this plan.
Plans as formulated at present are
to teach the Bible one hour each
week through the grades and to in
clude the study of the high school
sylabus for which one whole credit
is given by the state.
The board favorably considered
the application of Mrs. R. A. Feen
stra to undertake this work in the
Moro and Grass Valley schools. De
tails of agreement between the state
superintendent’s office, and the local
school boards, also the fixing of a
budget and other minor details are
still to be arranged.. The local board
of religious education' for Moro is
