Name DELECTABLE FOOD PREPARED BY A FRENCrl CHEF OF REPUTATIONFOURTH FLOOR 8 LI 111 SCHOOL IDEALS Would Repeal Law Barring Spiritual Training of Pupils in Classrooms." An attack both upon modern American (durational ideals In general ami on the ideals of the educational K.vttem of the State of New York In particular, and concrete suggestions on the introduction of religious education into the schools of the State, were features of an address by Arthur S.

Sorners on "Religious Kducatlon," delivered last night in the Central Congregational Church, Hancock near Uedford ave. After quoting from religious leaders of various faiths who advocate more attention to religious education, and after presenting a resume of the educational ideals of various civilizations of piist ages, Mr. Sorners, who in president of the lirook-lyn Chamber of Commerce and a member of the city's Uourd of lOdu-latlon, pointed out the primary principle which, he Insisted, must persist in spite of other change. "While the aim of our education will change," he said, "this we know, thai the moral and ethical responsibility to live righteously among men i'i brotherly love must always be our guiding principle. That is the rock on which any civilization must rest if It is to endure.

"Hut our Twentieth Century educational aim," he continued, "is not so much knowledge nor a reverence for what our ancestors havo griven us in the wny of culture, as power. This In itself is a praiseworthy aim. But our present-nay world Is filled with examples of the destruction that the power of materialism ha3 wrought." Mr. Somcrg then launched into an attack upon the educational Ideals today. He said, in part, as lol lows: "Our educational system is honey combed with varioius devices to test the capacities and fitness of individuals for this or that vocation.

Modern psychology would Justify man's habits toward his material tit ness and development. It has little If anything to do with his moral fitness. Satisfaction Makes "Right." Mr. Sorners quoted from a college professor in an American university who had slated that the modern college student works on the principle that the act is right it it results in satisfaction to the doer. "This is pragmatic philosophy, from which I heartily1 dissent," de clared Mr.

Sorners. "Possibly It was the refuge of Loeb and Leopold. After quoting from the recent an nual report of President Nicholas Murray Butler to the trustees of Co lumbia University, in which President Butler had expressed himself in strong terms against contempo rary efforts "to jjtarve youth by de- priving it or inieneciuai ana moral nourishments, Mr. isomers contin ued: "In ell otir welfare work we are too concerned with the efficiency of the body politic to Improve the physical and economic condition of the individual. There Is not a word of concern for his moral uplift.

"It would 'oe fallacious to assume that present-day educational meth ods and devices are responsible for the increase of crime that is so SOMERS DEPLORES LA RELIGION "Tht Gift Mo filth Avtnus II The 2 best Jokes submitted to the Local Lafs Kditor bf The Kagle lilts week will uguin divide (25 in pi The winning jokes with Hie names of their contributors will also be produced on a moving pl-ture fl I rti to be shown in boro theaters.

But there were those who objected, he said. "They believe in God and would have none of him," declared the speaker.

"God help them." "Whj should we longer tolerate on the statute books of New York," he asked, "a prohibition against the use of a public school for any sectarian purpose? In of New York, In 1 1 cities and towns, the authorities allow one period week for Bible study or religious instruc tion, but In no rose may this Instruction be given on the. school premises. "Whnt a farce! One would think that religion was poison to the Stale." Mr, Sonieis then turned to som concrete suggestions. 'Let us," he said, "if we are hon est and mean what we sav, ask as a first step the repeal of this statute of exclusion. Let us bring the teach er who is equipped and who is especially ordained to teach, wheth er he be Jew or Gentile, Catholls cr Protestant, into the pchooN such, times as may be arranged and there Justify the hope of the found- ers, vindicate their vision and teach our children to know that the only correct and sure formula for right living Is this: "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart and with thy whole soul, nnd with all thy strength, and thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself for the love of CANADIAN CHURCH UNION WINS PRESBYTERIAN VOTE Toronto, Jan.
