For adults and children. Mc Big Men. We have of late been wondering if the attitude toward Christianity by the big men of our country ie making any great impression on the minds of the average person? Well, it is making a lasting impression on the minds of thinking people, but those who think little, receive little impressions. What a powerful in fluence the President and his cabi net are now exerting over the wurld in a religious way! What a power ful sermon our President recently preached in a single word when asl ed to make a speech, he replied, lt is Sunday." That was all he said, and that was enough. But such things do not impress brainless peo ple. The only hope of the country is the union of education and reli gion. Our institutions of learning are the hope of the country. Tt is a remarkable fact that comparatively few highly educated men are in our prisons, otc. And it is a rare thing to hear a highly educated person curse or swear. If we could just gel people to think a Iiitie bit, there would be a big bit of good done. It is to many of us a surprise that peo ple do not get sick and tired of sin; that they do not try to be high ton ed just for one week to see how it feels. B. Classified Column.
