T WAS Colonel Hoi) Int-'iTsoll, we believe, who filial wli.it the t'lins-
iiin ministry needed was inure Christianity. Colonel Ini-i'soll
maintained that too many ministers preached Christianity one day a
week and failed to practice it the other six. He leclared he knew
many ministers who were good business men and good cornet players,
but he only knew one who was a good Christian, who practiced lite
ral Christianity, who was forgiving, tolerant who in every day life,
its a practical matter, practiced the Golden Rule and he was in jail.
Perhaps the brilliant Colonel had something on bis side, but we
believe ho would modify his views somewhat if he were in Oregon
today and observed the action taken by a group of Presbyterian min
isters regarding the Anti-Parochial school bill, also known as the
compulsory school bill, which comes up for a vote in Ulic fall election
This bill, of course, is aimed particularly against tho Catholic
church. It would abolish the parochial schools, as well as any other
religions or private schools, conducted;'' as at present, ,under the di
rection of the state board of education. -;'
Below is the statement and many Medford people will be interest
ed to seo the name of a former Medford pastor, Rev. "V. P. Shields
of Wallowa, signed to it. It is, in our judgment, a convincing demon
stration that the true Christian spirit still lives as a practical force,
in the ministry of today:
Submitted by W. It. Bodily. William Moll Case, and Boudinot Secley,
opposing the Compulsory Kdcatlon Hill.
"Whereas, much of the propoganda in favor of this bill has been
conducted In tho name of Protestantism, wo tho undersigned Church,
believe thnt tho proposed legislation Is Inimical to the highest human .
welfare for the following reasons:
1. It proposes to abolish one system of religious education and of
fers no substitute for it in any plun of religious instruction in connec
tion with the public school system.
2. It Is based on the philosophy of autocracy that the child
belongs to the state; it is nn unjustiflitblo invasion of family authority
and threatens ultimately tho guarantee of our American liberty!
3. . The proposed legislation in Its conception, promotion and exe
cution vlolntes what we conceive to bo the spirit of fraternity and
brotherly love taught by our Master.
At tho samo time wo desire It to be. understood that wo favor the
erection ot standards by tho State Department of Education for both
students and teachers in nil private schools."

THE LAW.
IDOX'T indorse that traffic law which holds me down to
thirty miles; it makes my spirit sore and raw, and from my
map refiioves the smiles. I'd like to send my old till bus like
streaks of lightning through the town, but Law is sacred to the
cuss who would enjoy a fair renown. And so I drive my creaking
van within the limit Law prescribes, though I am dubbed uu also
ran by all the whizzing speedster tribes. My face is tilwuys sad
and dour when to the road my bus 1 take; I'd hit up ninety miles
an hour, but thirty versts is all I make. For if we break through
any law because we do not like the same, from virtue's path we
then withdraw, and pluy an anarchistic game. The law prohibits
stealing hens, and though this fills my soul with ww, no longer
to my neighbors' pens do I with sacks at midnight go. The law
prescribes the Demon Rum, and though my thirst is truly great,
I make no bootleg guy my chum, but seek the hydrant near my
gate. Let us obey the law, my friends, in all its curves and hooks
and crooks; and if nt last rm patience ends, it's oirrs to wipe it
off the books.

TITLE BOUT TODAY
MICHIGAN CITf , Ind., Aug. 5 This
little city along the shore of Lake

map for the second time jwithin
month. Benny Leonard, world's light
weight champion, will defend liis title
in a ten round, no decision bout this
afternoon against Ever Hammer,
rugged, aggressive Chicago,!' light
weight. They will' meet at,i catch-
weights and to take the championship
Hammer must score a knockout or be
fouled by Leonard. '. A month ago in
the same ring Leonard scored a technl
cal knockout over Rocky Kansas of
Buffalo, N. Y. i.:
Hammer recently has scored a sen
sational comeback after eighteen
months' absence from the ring. He
recently has earned a newspaper de
clsion over Ritchie Mitchell of Milwau
kee and Charlie White of Chicago.
Leonard is a strong favorite to win
but Is prepared for a rough contest as
he says he regards Hummer as one ot
the division's most dangerous left hand
hitters. They met in 1918 before
Benny had acquired the championship
from Freddie Welsh and Hammer gave
Leonard a 12-round Bet-to before Ham
mer's handlers stopped the bout after
he had been floored.
