Defects in Religious Instruction Pointed Out in Honline Lecture

"Ecclesiastical and denominational Interests: running counter to community interests has caused much of the trouble with Protestantism.'- declared Dr. M. A. Honline, In the last lecture of a series given here under auspices of the Citr Sunday School association. Wednesday night. , Dr. Honline laid the-foundation for hi nightJecture in his address In the afternoon, it -which cimehe portrayed the need of religious 'education in America. - . With the-Exception ..of ...his second lecture, given in the East Mailt Street Friends church, Sunday night, the one at the First English Lutheran church

Wednesday night -was the most largely -attended. Dr. Honline left for Shelby ville to conduct a series of lectures, Thursday. "The church of tomorrow must rlress service rather than doctrine. Thinking.people of today are far more interested in man's treatment of his ff llowman. than of what .he thinks abrtui the Trinity. Theuchnrch of yesterday concerned itselfwltH individual vicei:but the :church of tomorrow will stress formation rather than reformation. If the prodigal son had not prred, he would not have had to come hack.' It fs more a case of prevention than a cure. . f Object is Neceaaary. "When Christ said 'Suffer the little children to come unto me, for of such id tbe Kingdom of Heaven.' he virtually held up the child and said 'Here is a. specimen of heaven, " said Dr. Honline, discussing the need of protecting the'lives of children by proper

training. "Every Sunday school must have an object. If it isn't doing that which it was' called into existence to do, then It has failed. Every Sunday school teachers' object should be: (1) The conversion of his pupil: (2) Development: of Christian character; (3) Training the child for Christian service;, and (4); Enlisting the student in Christian service. Many people be-

Alice Knollenberg was the organist. Lee B. Xusbaum led the congregational sieging. Stresses Need for Unity. "If Protestantism does not tang together, bless your soul, it will hang separately," was the concluding remark of. Dr. M. A. Honline,.. speaking on the "Needs of Religious Education," at the First English Lutheran church, Wednesday afternoon This statement followed a lengthy ' discussion of Protestant needs, in which the lecturer revealed startling conditions "We have discovered that 69 3-10 per cent of boys and girls between

the ages of five and 25 are not receiv

ing religious education of any kind

in the United States. Those figures are from a survey of Jews, Catholics and Protestants. "Do you know-that since 1916, juvenile delinquency has increased 200 per cent? , And did you know that when it comes to crime and homicide America heads the list? "Recently, 237 Chicacp school teachers made a survey or! 00,000 public school children . of. Chicago. They found that more than one-half of the children were suffering from too much 'movies. When these teachers sought to find the relative influence of the home, school, church and 'movies' on the same number of children, they found that , the home came first, as it should do; the school second, 'movies' third and the church fourth, i Favors Newer System.

"What's the use of crying 'peace,' 'peace,' when there is no peace. I m not a pessimist, neither am I a coward. The solution is to create a system of religious schools supplementary to our Sunday " schools and parallel to our publio schools, 'without infringing on either." Dr. Honline carefully outlined on a black-board the elements governing the life of a child before he drew at-

st ruction. At the same rate of time for the study of geography, it would take 14 years for one text book. Need Better Teachers. "The second tnmg is. your teachers are untrained. You must have teachers who are consecrated to the work, and who have made preparation for the work. You parents send any place for a physician to treat your child when he is 111. Are you as particular about his spiritual welfare? "Third, we have not got the proper lesson material. I hope to see the time when lesson material is prepared by, pedagogista and not theologists. "FourtJ. our equipment is not adequate. The average sum spent in each state on each high school pupil, each year, is $34.45. The average yearly church expenditure is 43 cents. "Remember that every child has been born with a religious nature. K this capacity is not developed and as

sociated with the Holy Spirit, it tends to die out. You don't have to implant the germ of religion in the child. You understand? It is not your job to put

it there. Understand, I never said the child was born a Christian. I said every child was born with a religious nature. It is your job to cultivate this religious capacity." The Rev. R. W. Stoakes led the de

votional services. Thomas P. Wilson presided.

FOUNTAIN CITY BLAST CAUSES SMALL DAMAGE FOUNTAIN CITY, ind., April 21. Explosion of an oil tank in the basement of Kincheloe's garage "Wednesday afternoon caused a great deal of excitement in the town but resulted in only a - minimum amount of damage to the garage. A section of the floor of the garage was blown up, but a woman seated at a desk in the office was uninjured. Show cases were knocked over and tires and accessories were scattered about the establishment.

T1JOW the family does like bread baked at home with Valier's Enterprise Flour! And no wonder. Valiers Enterprise Flour is milled from nothing but the white centers of carefully selected hard winter wheat. Thines baked with it are chuck full of fine flavor. They make your mouth water just to look at them. Yet fine baking is not the only good point of Valier's Enterprise Flour. Enterprise is economical. It costs more than, ordinary flour but it goes further. You'll get at least four more loaves to the sack because of its concentrated strength. And you won't have needless, expensive failures with Enterprise.

THE HOME GARDEN Potatofs' are by far the most important vegetable crop grown. They are always in season and are found on the table of all classes of people. They are the great staple

vegetable in au markets. Potatoes are grown in most home gardens, but there are Just a few points in the potato-growing game that the home gardener is likely to overlook which are very important. First of all. potatoes grow quickly, and their food supply must be ail ready , and waiting for them in the soil. Second, they are heavy feeders and want plenty of plant food .to draw upon. In other words, the soil for Irish potatoes must not only be rich but it must be rich in plant food of certain kinds. Land that was well manured the previous season and which contains plenty of organic matter is best. The first step in preparing theeoil

will be to spade or plow it to aj depth of eight or nine inches, then!

break up the clods if there be any, and pulverize the soil practically as deep as it is spaded or plowed. Commercial fertilizers give good results for growing potatoes, especially if the fertilizers contain potash, as potatoes require more potash than is usually present in the soil. Fertilizer manufacturers mix special brands for potatoes, and these are generally rather rich in potash. How much fertilizer to use will depend upon the fertility of the soil, but as a rule eight pounds to each 100 feet of row will be about right. A good way to apply ihe fertilizer is to make the holes or furrows and drop the pieces of seed potato, cover them with an inch or two of soil, then scatter the fertilizer aloog the row so that it will become well mixed with the soil in completing the covering of the seed. Another

method is to scatter the fertilizer

in' the furrow and mix it with the soil before dropping the pieces of

seed potato.

Small, shriveled potatoes, left in the bottom of the barrel at the end

of wir ter are not fit for seed. Only plump, disease-free potatoes, on which the sprouts are just beginning to start, should be used for seed. Seed grown in Maine, New York, Michigan, Wisconsin, or some other special seed producing section, will as a rule, give best results. Seedmen get the seed potatoes shipped in by the car load and then sell them to gardeners in small quantities. It takes about ten bushels (S00 pounds) of seed potatoes to plant, an acre. One bushel of seed will plant one-tenth of an acre which is a space fortythree feet wide by 100 feet long. A peck of seed potatoes (fifteen pounds) should plant 360 feet of row, each potato being cut into chunky pieces having at least one good eye to a piece.

BORDEAUX FOR PERENNIALS A small quantity of Bordeaux spray will keep perennials in fine shape. Spray weekly during the next four or five weeks. This will insure clean foliage during the summer and prevent bud rot of peonies and control hollyhock rust. 1 lb. will make 5 gallons of liquid; lb., 45c. ARSENATE OF LEAD (Dry) For dusting and spraying. Solves the problem of controlling practically leaf eating insects in a particularly efficient manner. 1 lb., 60c; lb., 35c.

PARIS GREEN A poisonous in

secticide in powder form, for insects which chew. When applied as a powder, use 1 part paris green to 10 parts plaster flour. As a liquid, one pound of paris green in 150 to 300 gallons water; if used on fruit trees add one pound quick lime. .j lbs., 40c; per lb., 75c. TOBACCO DUST (Fumigating and dusting) Fine dark powder of high strength aud will do the work. 5c per lb. BLACK LEAF 40 Black Leaf 40 is a solution of nicotine sulphate. It is highly recommended by experiment stations throughout the United States as a spray for soft bodied sucking insects. For spraying only. 1 ounce bottle, 25c.

WHY FERTILIZERS? The answer is that fertilizers increase profits wherever properly used. They are carriers of plant food in an available and concen

trated form They contain, the. three elements of plant food most needed in crop production, nitrogen, usually refered to as ammonia, phosphorus in the form of available phosphoiic acid and potassium, or popularly potash. Nitrogen causes quick and vigorous plant growth, available phosphoric acid fills the grain or fruit and hastens ripening. Potash strengthens the straw or stalk. PULVERIZED LIMESTONE The agricultural value ot lime has been known for centuries. It Is an economic neutralizer for soil acidity, also beneficial to the soil in many other ways; it improves the texture of the soil, lets in air and moisture, liberates nitrogen and other plant food, makes your soil

sweet enlivens it that is, makeB conditions favorable to plant growth by giving life to the soil bacteria which makes it productive. Lime will be found very beneficial in the growing of all garden crops,

fruit trees and flowers. Try it on

the lawn, too. Apply after the land is plowed or dug for a crop, scattering with a lime distributor. 2 tons or more per acre or by hand

in small gardens about a large

handful to a square yard. Packed

in cotton sacks, not paper. Price, 100 lbs.. $1.00; 50 lbs., 75c. or 2c

per pound. NITRATE OF SODA OR CHILE SALTETRE

Nitrate of Soda is not a substitute for other manure, but we rec

ommend it as the cheapest and

best form in which to apply nitrogen to plants. Gardeners who are

using farm manure should continue

to use it, but ise nitrogen of soda in addition to other fertilizers. If

your object is to grow maximum crops you must furnish the plant with nitrogen.

HOW TO USE NITRATE OF SODA Remove the lumps before using and break them up, which can be done by pounding. Use a top dressing at the rate of 100 lbs. per acre on the following vegetables.

when plants are well established. For asparagus, a top dressing of 250 lbs. per acre just as soon as the first shoots make their appearance. For strawberries, a top dressing of about 100 lbs. per acre after the plants have blossomed. For the home garden apply as a solution one ounce to two gallons of water. Price, 10c per pound. LAND PLASTER or GYPSUM A high-grade lime product for sweetening heavy and sour soils. $1.50 per 100 lbs., or 2c per lb. Lawn or Garden Fertilizer SHEEP MANURE In sheep manure there is sufficient ammonia to give the young plants a quick and vigorous start and maintain a healthy growth. Grass and early garden truck need lots of phosphoric acid, which this supplies. For lawns, make first application in the early spring when frost is out of the ground, distribute evenly 25 lbs. of fertilizer to every 1,000 sq. feet of lawn. In seeding down a new lawn, scatter double the amount. 50 lbs. of fertilizer in every 1,000 sq. feet, rake thoroughly, then sow seed. 100 lbs., $2.50; $1.50 for 50 lbs., or less quantity at 5c per lb. ROSE GROWERS' BONE MEAL This is a special brand we have just put up for our trade. It is ground fine, hence, acts quickly. Free from acid and a superb article. It is made from bone accumulated in large slaughter houses and should not be compared with the bone meal made from cattle heads and feet gathered upon the western prairies. Our "Rose Grower" Bone has been slightly steamed to soften it and is thus quicker in Us action. Analysis: Ammonia. 44 to 5V2 per cent; total phosphoric acid, 22 to 25 per cent; bone phosphate 48 to 54 per cent. Rose beds and plants, 1 part to about 50 of soil. Price 5c per lb.

THE VITAMINES IN BREAD Some knowledge of vitamines is necessary to everyone, and a thorough appreciation of the worth of yeast, the chief source of one of these, is the paramount importance to the up-to-date baker at the present time; for it places bread In the front rank as a food product containing in abundance and at low cost the very elements of life,

growth, strength and good health. It makes bread the perfect food for children, since they must draw largely on vitamines for their growth, for both mental and physical development; for the strength to study and to play. Each day more attention is being drawn to the absolute necessity of vitamines in the diet. Through

magazines, newspapers and all me

diums 01 communication, me puunc is learning the basic facts in the case and demanding food which contains this magic element. The subject of dietics ha3 almost to be rewritten to take into account these minute food factors which have been the mystery and the golden prize of every laboratory where scientific food research is being conducted. The foods which contain them contain the elements of life, and build glowing, rosy strength, form muscles, healthy tissues and steady nerves. The foods which do not contain them must be eaten in conjunction with those that .do in order to contribute their proper share of nourishment to the body. This is the great opportunity of the baker who has his material ready to hand. Bread may be eaten three times a day and between meals by every member of the family. Everyone likes it and it combines well and naturally with other foods so that its large quanti- . ty of vitamines will cover the lack of foods low in this element. The obligation placed upon the baker is to turn out a quality loaf of wholesome bread, and to do this he must use the purest ingredients obtainable. The main ingredient of bread Is flourv made from the heart of the golden wheat. The baker's opportunity is also a chance for the miller as well. Co-operation will supply a splendid loaf of nutritious bread to meet the demands of the market for the Best Food there is.
