The subject of religious education Is receiving more attention each year as the leaders in school work are acknowledging a real lack in our public •r'ooi systems. Progressive educators in many tions of the coun L"y are advocating various plans for including moral ard religious instruction in the regula school curriculum. A strllzing t'xam is found in the a.in cf Prolessor ,'rt. director of the ul!e schools it ary. md. It seems quite obable that before itiany years some development of hese plans will be very generally nptrd. But in the meantime a large proportion of our juvenile population 'ving up In deplorable ignorance nncerntng nral and religious truths which, common to all modern creeds, are a more valuable Inheritance from the past thait are our legal and political systems, our industrial methods, or our accumeilation of scientific knowledge. In son homes auch training receives mor r less attention, hut systematic r 'tfective Instruction is decidedly •, xception rather than the rule... It is substantia ue that the only place where Prorn t cildren have a chance to studr •se 'essons is in the Sunday schoo ud It is much to he regretted that re are many parents who seem mdi erent as to whether their children ike ath'antage of that opportunity ot not. In Wilmette we have several of these church schools which are thoroughly organized. well equipped and able to accomplish wonderful results. The only thing lacking to make them as efficient as our day school is the same measure of support from parents. This is a matter which cannot be dismissed lightly by any father or mother who is alive to his responsibilities. The community and the state need this sort of training for the coming generation of voters an leaders. WANT APPLICATIONS.

In spite of such favorable conditions. tl'ere are several parents holding their children out. Dr. Moore is not alarmed over the situation, for, he rays, as soon as parents discover there is no danger the children will teturn. When a child has been absent for three successive days he cannot return without a physician's certificate that he is in good health. Through a very efficient system of eo-oi)eratiOn between Dr. Moore and the parents and teachers, every child continually followed up, and there is no chance for an epidemic in Wilmette. At rresent Dr. Moore is inspecting the schools every day and has been for some time. He assures U this inspection ill continue indefinitely.
