That may 01 may not be a true
analysis of the situation. Most peo
pie of the older generation probably
agree that it is not. ' But if it is
granted that the writer is right, about
It what^hen? The implication'is that
mere manners are of comparatively
little importance. As a matter ol
fact, they are o? much more impor-
‘ twee than the majority of people
realize nowadays.
The Romans used the same word
tor morals and manners, recognizing
the essential connection between the
and Mr. Edison/accordingly pronounc-
es college men 'amazingly ignorant.”
That brings up the question, “What
is ignorance?" Or to put it anothec
way, “55’hat is education?” The
1
more one thinks about the matter,
the more one is likely to conclude
that there Is no dependable standard.
Education, perhaps, is the mentil
training and equipment that fits you
for what you are doing, or wtiat you
want to do Ignorance then is a
lack of training and equipment for
what you want lo do. It depends on
two. It 4 Is manners and customs [the individual and his environment
which, la the long run, make morals, or his work.
I
Strict manners protect strict moral
principle* when^ the principles exist,
•■d develop them when they are
lacking. Loose manners break down
moral principles. Everybody knows
how all army loses fts “morale” when
It gets into bad habits of posture,
drill and otfeeV matters of discipline.
It i« the same with society.

many ways, and there are many kinds

London, May 16—A story of bo
roic self-sacrifice and devotion has
reached England from the leper vil-
lage of Chandag. India,v where Mary
Reed, a solitary white woman mis
would wionary. Is giving her life to ministry
to the Bufferings of her fellow lepers.
News of her isolated life was
brought back by Mr. Oldrieve, or
ganizing secretary of the Mission
of lepers, who has just returned
from a 70,000 mile Journey visiting
all the leper colonies in India.
Thirty year's ago Miss Reed went
into this desolate spot in the Hima-
layas, 6,000 feet above ihe sea level,
offering herself to the hsper cause.
Although a victim of the malady,
‘he is still able to carry on her
spiritual work among these afflicted
like herself.
Miss Reed seldom sees white peo-
rle for her station is 80 miles from
the nearest railway line. There are
36 women lepers in the community
and 19 men in the pnen's refuge a
short distance away.
According to Mr. Oldrieve, there
are’ 200,000 lepers in India. ‘‘At
present,” he declared, “it is not tight
to say that any cure for leprocy has
been found.”
were killed and a score wounded last
night in Morelia, capital of the state
of Micboaean, says a report to Excel-
sior today, when police, aided by un-
solicited help from radicals, charged
a large group of Catholics.
The Catholic population ot Morelia
was much Incensed Sunday when rad
icals entered the several churches
there, broke jpany images and eventu-
ally placed a red flag on the cathedral
tower.
A demonstration of protest was held
yesterday but was broken up by the
police, aided by federal soldiers. The
demonstration Was resumed in the
evening. The Inspector of police led
a large unit of fully armed gendarmes
against the demonstration. The few
who carried arms later refused the de-
mand of the police inspector that they
disperse, and when a volley was fired
over their beads, they charged the po-
lice, who leveled their guns at the
yrowd, the dispatches state. The Cath-
olics, some of them women and chil-
dren who dashed at the action of the
police, fled in panic.

sion, but I believe that within a
short time we shall see a turn for
the better; in fact, even now there
are indications of a revival.
