Powers and Stone, Inc, New York and Chicago, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1928 -- == SUNDAY SCHOOL The Sunday schools of the land are getting under way again after a period of vacation or desultory attendance. Those who take upon themselves the burden of the religious education of youth are ready to buckle down ts what is conceded a real job, Young peo- ple do not turn out to Sunday school as they did a generation or two ago, The reason why would be interesting and valuable, Time was when every child in every com- munity dressed in his best on Sunday morn- ing and started off to the church school forti- fied with his lesson learned during the week, He memorized the golden text and, likely as not, a considerable number of verses from the Bible, A wholesome taste for Biblical literature and a facility in Biblical quota- tion were usually imparted, in the Sunday school, But times have changed. A college pro- fessor recently discovered that his class in English literature could not identify 20 per cent, of the Biblical allusions to be found in a selected group of Tennyson's poems. Familiarity with the Bible and attendance upon Sunday School are marked by the same ratio of decline, The Sunday school today contends with competitors never thought of in the olden days, The waning power of parental author- ity is another enemy of stated religious edu- cation, But the great weakness lies in the antiquated equipment and the outgrown practices of backward churches. The con- trast between the public school and some Sunday schools is pathetic. The child feels this disparity even though he may not an- alyze it. Happily, the churches understand this weakness and are boldly attacking it. The period of transition is upon the Sunday school and upon methods in religious educa- tion, The problem is a big one but it can and will be solved, That it must be solved is the conviction of every true Canadian, whether church- goer or not. Religious education is every bit as fundamental to the welfare and hap- piness of a democracy as secular education. It must not decline either in favour or use- fulness, It must not even lag behind. A thought is an idea in transit, --Pythagoras, A boxer can improve everything except his reach, and a boarding house might help that. CHANCE The wheel of chance stops here and there And fortunes rise and fall, : And one becomes a millionaire, Another loses all, But still the man to whom has come Wealth's shining golden tide Remains unchanged within, though some May flatter or deride, For luck, which may a fortune give Or fortune take away, Still leaves us here our lives to live And shape from day to day, It has no power our minds to reach, It cannot make us kind, The wheel of fortune cagnot teach Ways gentle and refined, Chance makes men rich from year to year, And has since life began, But more than luck is needed here To make a gentleman, --E, A, Guest, in Tit Bits, 7 Anderson's Saturday Morning See Friday's Paper For Full Particulars Men's Suits, Hats, Caps, AR Overcoats, Furnishings (oP oV-RV VY lt a Clance BY RENRUT "Nice morning," said his reverence, as the rain came down in torrents soaking everything in sight right to the core.

He was there only two days and did not rum across many people. But he played a game of golf at a public golf course and the partner he picked up was an ex- Canadian. He had his car in a garage and the chief mechanic was a former Ottawa boy. Detroit is probably the largest Canadian city in the United States and with its population of over 100,000 Cana- est Canadian eity. Detroit is still dynamic and pul- sating after ten years of steady advance. But there is good prom- ise that Canadian cities will be relatively more active than Detroit inside of a few years and many of these Canadians will come hack. THIS SOUNDS JUST A LITTLE FAR-FETCHED (Financial Post, Toronto) A party of motorists who travel- ed some 125 miles through Ontario last Sunday did not have their tea until 8.20 o'clock in the evening. Having an aversion to hot dogs and "pop," and refusing to eat in the type of Chinese or Greek restaur- ants that mar many Ontario vill- ages and towns they were forced to travel on for hourse before com- ing to a place where they could get a clean, neatly served meal in suitable surroundings. Even around Toronto, with 700,000 people in the metropolitan area, the number of really good tea rooms or eating places outside the eity limits could be numbered on the fingers of one hand.

Fur- ther proof was found when an Aspirin tablet was dropped into the lake at a distance approximately latitude and longitude, 25 x 24 rods. The pill made a sickening sound as it took its last plunge 'in the icy waters of the lake. The waters great- ly resembled the waters surrounding Greenly Island, rather damp, There was a great commotion among the elements as drove by, and a storm brewing. i thunder roared (typical scenes) and the planc was having difficulty des- pite the fact that it headed onward.

TEAR GAS EMPLOYED TO QUELL MUTINY Baltimore, Md., Sept. 19.--There |was comparative quiet in Maryland penitentiary tonight after tear gas bombs were used effectively thie afternoon to quell the disturbance started Mosxday night by convicts who claim they were denied a public hearing on their charges that "officials have absolved guards at the jail of cruel and in- humane treatment of prisoners." Of the 800 prisoners who took active part in the demonstration Monday night only 208 still con- tinued on their "strike" today and barricaded themselves in their cells this afternoon in their last defiant stand against the prison authorities. When the others continued fin their rebellion Warden Brady or- dered the tear gas squad of the police department to spray one section of the jail with tea gas. Five "striking" convicts were rem- dered helpless by the fumes and were taken from their cells and lodged in other sections of the building.

Here are a few of the causes of pre- mature tire failure -- and the remedy for each, Under-inflation.
