NEW MODERATOR OF .
PRESBYTERIANS HAS
FATHER’S OLD POST
l Dr. Charles n. Robinson.
Dr. Charles H. Robinson of
Wheeling, W. Va, newly-elected
moderator of the United Presby-
terian church in North America. is.
a son of a former moderator of
t denomination. His father, the
la Dr. W. J- Robinson, of Argyle,
. Y., was pastor of a Pitts urg
church when elected. in 1899. to the
highest position within the gift of
the church. The organization Dr.
Robinson heads is one of several
national Presbyterian associations.
worst class. but. are they insane. or
are. they possessed with a love of
cruelty. or have. they lost all moral
sense. all ability to feel or to dis-
tinguish between values? . . . The
most baffling point. of all is that od—
ucatlon seems to have. accruituated
their fiendislmrss rather than to
have lessened. It raists the. whole
question of the value of education
which is not. primarily concerned in
producing character and whether
any education can produce charac-
ter if it is divorced from religion.
Religion must go hand in hand with
the best of intellectual mlucation
and culture. it the tallest flowers of
character are desired.
' “'hat is the church doing in view
of these. startling farts? Perhaps
the day is not far hence when the
children will go from public schools
to their respective. churches to re-
ceive at least one hour of religious
instruction. But in the meantime
what shall We. do? I believe, it Is
high time to give the question seri-
ous consideration on the part of
pnrnets and churches. “‘e shall
actually be. compelled to “go into
the highway and byway" and com-
pel the children to come in. Religi-
ous training is imperative and nec-
essary. “'0 want our boys and
girls to grow up into the finest
manhood and womanhood.
Our teaching: must he a positive
one. \Vo should teach that God
has a high purpose for every life.
And that. every youth should bend
all his energies ioJlm realization of
that purpose. “'e should teach the
Bible not as an end in itself. but as
a. means unto an end. This religi-
ous training consists in teaching
that devotion and loyalty to a high
ideal is manly and worthy. That
purity is power. That reverence for
all that is true and healthful and
good .is religion. That in Jesus we
find the perfect example. of man-
hood .and that in following Him we
shall have attained to that life
which is efficient for the best.
"If Jesus Christ is God.
And the. only God I’swehr ,
I will follow Him thru heaven and
hell
The earth. the sea and the air."
Boo U. S. Cowboys
When Animal Is Hurt
LONDON. .une 17.-—oThe opening
of Tex Austin's international rodeo
in the British empire exhibition
stadium Saturday when one of the
steers had its leg broken while be-
ing' roped and tied by an American
cowboy was followed yesterday by
an appeal to Prime Minister McDon-
aid by the Royal Society for the
prevention of cruelty to animals in
steer roping and wrestling contests
or the rodeo. The society simul-
taneously applied for a court surn-
mons against the promoters of the.
contests. .
After the accdient to the steer
which brought scattering "boos
and cries of "shame" from the.
crowd of 40.000 persons who saw
the night performance. Austin and
his cowboys decided to exclude the
roping contests from the rodeo pro-
gram. It was announced. however.
that. as the cowboys had traveled
5.000 miles to England to compete
for money prizes the roping and ty-
ing contests would be continued in

“ he present. conditions in our coun~
ry of crime, divorce. suicide and

children. its future citizens, more
instruction in real religion." a reso-
lution was read at the twenty-fourth
annual convention of Connecticut.
Congress of Mothers and Parent-
Teachers Associations held at Con-
necticut Agricultural College. urg-
ing that the congress “do everything
possible to promote midweek schools
of religious education. to the end
that eventually ‘every child in Con-
necticut may have systematic in-
struction in the faith of its father'
and may thus raise the standard of
character so needed in the United
States."
Other resolutions drawn up and
submitted by the committee on re-
solutions. consisting of Mrs. A. E.
Ralph and Miss Mary E. Potter.
commended the work being done by
the juvenile courts throughout the
state: “the practice of providing
facilities fnr preparing hot nutritious
dishes at schools” in orderjo raise
and maintain the mental and physic-
al efficiency of school children: the
work helm: done at the Connecticut
Agricultural College: and urged tho
Congress to "do all in its power to
secure state aid for transportation
of school children" in connection
with, the consolidation of schools
which. lheresolulion says. "means
better facilities for education."
’Another resolution attacked the
filming of “salaeious books" as the
result of which thr- sale of the book
"has been enormously increased.”
and still anoth-r pointed out the
“disregard" in “Ill"h ”the laws of
our land" are held ”
by many of
our people." ‘
In regard to the education of the
