TELLS HOW TO HOLD INTEREST IN WORK OF SUNDAY SCHOOLS "Religious education without more Intense activity in the Sunday school is all in vain," Frof. George Piatt Knox. D. S.. director or religious education of the ' International Sunday School association, said in his address at the Y. M. C. A. Friday afternoon. He was continuing his talk of the morning session of the meeting of the Wayne County Sunday School association. Prof. Knox stated that a system of religious education should be installed in the Sunday schools and emphasized that the teachers should realize the valin of defining the method of what is being done. He said: "The need at present is for a system which would build up the Sunday schools and their influence in a community. To do thi3, a definite system must be, followed. First to be done will be to sort the children in order to be able to administer the correct teaching to the various kind3 of children. How to Hold Them "If a group of children has been accustomed to being together in their every day school work and at entertainments, the thing to do is to allow ihem to remain in. company on Sunday in the Sunday school a1 well. This must be done to hold them in the Sunday school. Another way to hold them is to make things so attractive that they will desire to be present at each Sunday session. Prof. Knox used four phrases to apply to the holding of children in the Sunday schools. They are: "Get them," "sort them." "hold them," "save them." " We are only reaching onethird of the children in this country. This is a shameful situation. It is wrong to get children into the Sunday school by any means other than those which you will keep up in the future. If you use a 'bait' they will disregard the standing of the school and will soon drop out. "Another way to hold a Sundayschool class together is to appoint each member to a responsible position or have him on a committee which takes work to keep things moving and which will be a responsible duty to keep him interested in it at all times. St Aside Hour. "To pet p child to study its Sunday school lesson, the parents should set pside one hour on a Saturday evening in which the entire family would study the Ieson and make the child desire to do the same, where otherwise, if the parents do not study the lesson, the child will deem it unnecessary, "We are not, at present. ev;rgelizins our children, and this thins; is a great need. Our boys and girls mus; have personal contact with Christ; thry must know Jesus as a living, ita1 personality. "Mot.t of our crimes of the prrsent day are committed by persons under 21 years of age. and the one big thing which stands out in importance today, is the necessity of getting the younger set into the Sunday school and teach them the right from wrong. Get mo'-e people into the church! That is the bis thing which' must be attained. Albertson Speaks. E. T. Albertson, general secretary of the Indiana S-imday School- association, spoke in the morning on the Sunday organization. Its' needs; - purposes and the system which should be followed in the future. Miss Nellie C. Young, state superintendent of the children's division, rpclre briefly on the work which was being done in that department and explained the plan which was being followed over the state. Wayne G. Miller, state superintendent, of the Youn People's division, spoke on the work of the division a1 explained the various good things which had been done by the division during the pas: year.

Meeting in caucus last night, house Republicans adopted a resolution containing this instruction to the committee and declaring that once reported the measure should be kept before the house until passed. The caucus was said to have given instructions to the committee as to what revenue raising provision should be incorporated in the bill. It was understood to have been agreed that this should be threshed out in the committee first, subject to later caucus action. Considerable sentiment developed during the discussion, it was said, in favoring of making the cash provisions of the bill less attractive than formerly proposed and increasing the desirability of the insurance and home and farm aid options.

RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND

OPERETTA NUMBER, "SE-A-WAN-A," WINS ARTISTIC SUCCESS One of the most artistic musical productions of the season took place with the presentation of "Se-a-wan-a," an Indian operetta by the music department of the Woman's club, under the direction of Agnes Hansel Harter in the high school auditorium Thursday evening. Five hundred persons witnessed the performance. Striking settings and elaborate, colorful Indian costumes formed a pleasing and impressing spectacie combined as they were with singing of the beautiful Indian melodies by trained talent. Mrs. Edward Minnerman, who possesses a pure, clear-toned soprano voice of obvious cultivation, was ad mirably suited to the role of "Se-a-wan-a" which she took. j ly delightful manner untouched by any pose, cnaracterized her portrayal of the Indian maid. Agnes Hansel Harter as the Woman of the Roses was at her best singing her parts with a full rich voice marked by clear diction. Mrs. William H. Romey as Ne-a-qua, rival of Se-a-wan-a, played her part well. The part of Sakwe-en-ta, the ratlesnake, was taken by Mrs. Fred Bartel. Mrs. F. W. Krueger as O-pe-che, the robin, had a solo which she sang with her customary charm. Excellent Diction. The choruses were sung with excellent diction and feeling, forming one of the most important parts in the operetta. Members of the Woman's club and a number ef young women comprised the chorus. Terpsichorean numbers interspersed through the operetta were given by pupils of Miss Elizabeth Kolp with unusual grace and received hearty applause from the audience. The operetta was opened with a solo dance by one diminutive Indian maid who vanished to appear later in a group of six little acorn dancers. Great pine trees and Indian tepee3 and foliage of vine against a backdrop formed the forest setting for the drama which takes place in a forest near a Mohaw village before the coming of the whites to America. Preceding the operetta Miss Ruth Peltz in Indian costume gave the story of the drama, and Miss Mildred Nusbaum played a group of three Indian sketches by Charles Sanford Skilton. Miss Laura Gaston talked briefly giving characteristics of Indian music.

Stillman Wins Battle Against Granting $7 00 For Canadian Hearing (By Associated Press) NEW YORK, Jan. 27. James A. Stillman has won his fight against giving Mrs. Anna U. Stillman $7,500 to conduct Canadian hearings in their divorce suit. Today the appellate division of the supreme court reversed a decision by Justice Morschauser. directing the banker to pay Mrs. Stillman the sum for the expenses of carrying her defense across the border. The opinion, signed by five justices, held that Mrs. Stillman already had been given sufficient money for her defense. According to her own statement she needed only $2,000 for the proposed Canadian hearings, the hearing set forth, concluding that $7,500 was therefore excessive.
