LABELS
THE PRE-MEDICAL COURSE. . T '.--J3ii
At the recent medical association held in Indianapolis, there was a
resolution passed against the pre-medical course of two years in some lit
erary institutions. One of the prime movers in this suggestion was Dr.
W. L. Bryan, president of the University of Indiana. It has been appar ent that many physicians were wanting in the fundamentals of an acade mie education before they entered the medical college and as a conse
quence their education is essentially professional. It is true that many
physicians are college and university graduates before entering the medi
cal college, and, as such, build their professional education on a broad educational foundation. But this is the exception rather than the rule.
A majority of those who attend medical colleges are persons whose scholastic attainments are very limited and they are, therefore, never able to
comprehend the science of a medical education. , Dr. Bryan's idea is that a medical education is a scientific education and that the college or university is the place to acquire the foundation, lie believes that the physician ought io know physics, chemistry, botany and zoology and that the university i better equipped to teach these branches than is any medical college. Under his regime, a student can begin to specialize in the Junior year with a view to the study of medicine. Then when he enters the medical college proper, he is able to enter into the real spirit of the professional work. There is a tendency in many colleges to shorten the regular college course to three or even two years so that the young man or young woman may sooner enter upon professional study. But this shortening of the college course presupposes a thorough high school education before entering1 the college. We believe the time is here when the public will demand a thorough college training for the physician. There are several reasons for this. Above any other professional man, he ought to be a man of broad scholarly attainments because he comes nearer to the family and the. home than any other individual whose business it is to come into the home. His education should be such as to enable him to keep in touch with every advancement in medical science and every other allied science. Therefore, if the pre-medical course in the college is ruled out, let the medical college demand a college diploma for entrance and make no exceptions to the rule.

SMOOT INVESTIGATOIN A TRICK. Jlov. John Merriettte Driver, pastor of the peoples' church, Chicago, roundly scored the advocates of polygamy in his sermon yesterday. He thinks the Reed Smoot investigation was only a trick and that the Mormons intended by t his investigation to give more publicity to their doctrines. Tie said in part: ' "No beast of the desert, no serp?nt in the jungle, has been as fiendishly and persistently sinned against as man has sinned against woman. Take, for example, polygamy. The history of every land and age and people is scarlet and crimson with this most revolting barbarity and abomination. Even Colombia today hangs her head in shame and beseeches her guests from foreign lands to avoid Utah and the five contiguous states and territories, lest her foulness and corruption be discovered. "The wiles of the Mormons are many and far reaching. The Smoot case was only a ruse. President Smith was not a reluctant witness. The papers and people said: 'He is giving himself, his church and his coMormons away.' Trust a Mormon for guile, strategy and diplomacy. His testimony was along earefullyeonsidered and predetermined lines. With the Mormons it .was a cam-pa ign of education and familiarization.
"Iheir object in putting Mnootii and his predecessor iorward was
not to secure office, except, possibly, as a precedent for the future; no, their real obiect was to secure publicitv and they were successful. But while
we are centering our gaze and effort on the Washington Smoot and
Smith feint, the Mormons, Toga and Kuroki like, are striking everywhere
and advancing in all directions."
THE BOY PROBLEM'.'
And .the "Sunday .School Prob
lems," Two Topics to Be Treated.
The State Sunday School Associ
oatin will meet in this city June 21
and 23. The officers of the associ
ation are in the Law building, Indi
anapolis. From this office circulars
are now being mailed to different
Sunday school workers over the state
These circulars set forth in a brief
way some of the attractions that will
be presented at the state convention
for the benefit of those interested in
the Sunday school work. Two topics which will be treated carefully at
the convention are "The Boy Prob
lem" and "The Sunday School Problems." The Hon. C. O. Merica, who for many years was superintendent of a boys' industrial school, will give addresses on "The Boy Who Goes
Wrong," and "The Churches of Tomorrow. ' ' During the session the Rev. E. W Biederwolfe of Monticello will conduct a series of Bible studies. Mr.
Biederwolfe did active work in the the Bible Study department of the Winona summer school last year. The primary workers who attend the convention will be instructed by Miss
Burton, of Louisville, Ky. Miss Burton is a special kindergarten worker and is well trained in handling the problems connected with the early
life of boys.
The convention will be held at the last Main street Friends' church in
Richmond, with overflow meetings at
he First M. K. church and the First
Baptist church. Besides thy two of
ficial delegates from every county, each school will be allowed to send
two delegates.

The Presbyterian General Assembly north has done a wise thing in passing a resolution to lay aside all harriers between the churches of this
denomination, north and south. It is believed that the two bodies will be reunited. They have been separated since 1801, -when they could not agree on matters relating to the great rebellion. A union with the Cumberland
branch will soon take place and then it is hoped that all the branches of this church will unite and form one of the strongest religious bodies in the world.

One of our Democratic exchanges is worried about the sacrifice Senator Fairbanks will make if he accepts the nomination for vice president. We presume that the senior senator knows the situation exactly and knows too that if he accepts the nomination, he will be the presiding officer in the United States senate for the next four years. The Indianapolis Sentinel speaks of "Democrats of all shades of belief" but it does not say whether it is religious or political belief.
AiUSEIENTS
Sergeant Siewers, one of the gallant bandsmen of the First Imperial Marine Band of Germany, which comes to ihe Gennett has a very good opinion of the fighting men of the north of China. The Sergeant was a member of the rescuing expedition to Pekin during the Boxer troubles, and as he wears a medai for bravery bestowed by Kaiser William himself, it must be granted that his opinion is worth something. It was formed
while Herr Siewers was wresting a
used to the rigorous climate, and can
stand hardships as well if not better than the Japs. They are as quick
and brave as the men from Nippon,
and superior to them in every way
except in the accomplishing of drill,
and the possession of competent offi cers and modern arms. Woe to Rus
sia if the Japs ever gain them as allies, and arm and drill them. The com
jbined forces could drive the hordes
of Russia back to the gates of St.
Petersburg itself."
London, May 21. The recent address of the Bishop of Ripon at Leeds, on the subject of childless marriages and the declining birth' rate is stirring up a vast amount of interest in England, and is being discussed in religious and medical circles. "Much more terrible," he said "than those irregular alliances which the church had not sanctioned were
those terrible lasluonabie marriages where the duties of life were
shirked and marriage was made a
mockerv.
"This was a question affecting so
ciety as a whole, for the birth rate of every European nation was de
clining. In Scandinavia during the past twenty years it had gone down
4 per cent.; in France, 14; Great Britain, 15; in England and Wales
without Scotland and Ireland, 17j
and in Australia 30 per cent.
"While the marriage rate was increasing, the birth rate was declining, and the nation was being deprived of five hundred children a week. ' '
