1. Educr tion. -EdUcation I the 'ke7 to

sound education will do very much. It is
at lea.st the good ~inniJlg which i the

tiOX:~61l!1.. I ca.n ouly make a. feW' sUJlI!01Y

,Ae to tho actual matter of instrul'tion.
one . cannot too much omphasiso the ueed
of growing con~ J1tions of God to Euit the

Couldn't the mini.tet Iliva a series of
