M. C. Fishen, Newcas- tlc, gave a most informative and tbought-provoking address at the Shaw's Home and Scbool Club meeting on Fniday, Nov. 26, on the subject, "Religions Instruction in the Schools." The three greatest influences in a child's ie are the home, the sehool and the cburcb. In the past the home and the chunch exerted a greater influ- ence on the religious lufe of children than they are to-day. Dr. Sidney Smitb, president ai the University ai Toronto, bas stated that aur young people are better versed in ýGreek mytholagy than the basic faun- dations ai aur iaitb. In reference ta the criticism which bas been made ai aur schoals today that there la "toa little for the mind", Dr. Smith contends that there is "taa lit- tic for the spirit." In recognition of this fact that the school could wield a great influence for good if ne- ligiaus instruction weregve there an act ai Parliament a passed about 10 yeans ago in the Province of%Ontario stating that religious instruction could be taught in the schools by the 1teacher or the scbool board can ask a ministen ta give the i- struction. Recently in the Teachers' Colleges in Ontario a course bas been started ta give the kteachers instruction in how ti carry an this work in the schools. There is now an Inter- 1denominational C a m m i t t e e .whicb has been set up ta study Fthis matter af religiaus instruc- tion in aur schools. The chair- man of this cammittee is Bish- op Beverley af the Anglican church and the secretary is Rev. H. C. Burkhoider wbo is also secretary of the Ontario Coun- cil of Christian Education. Now that we have the legis- ilation required and the great need is seen let us as parents, membens of Home and School tAssociations exert aur inf lu- Sence that religious instruction may be given in aur schools.
