MISSIONARY GLEANINGS
Tom Watson says he believes in
missions, but not in educational, med¬
ical. nor industrial missions, nor any
kind except mere preachings Tie for¬
gets that a large part of Christ's early
ministry was devoted to teaching,
ing, and even feeding the hungry. He
forgets that the last command was
“Go teach all nations.” an 1 that
snid of his followers that as they go
they shall lay hands on the sick, and
they shall recover. Watson* would
hare the missionary preach the gospel
but neglect to practice it. Ho would
have the spirit of Christ proclaimed to
the heathen, but not demonstrated.
Yet. we dare say. he would have small
use for a religion at home that ex¬
pends itself in preaching only. Wat¬
gospel would he like that faith
without works is dead. Even if
missionary had an interest only in
acceptance of the gospel, he would
small chance to attain this end
he manfested the spirit of the
by showing sympathetic inter¬
in man's physical needs.
The Japanese government report con
religion in Korea, after ac¬
the weakness of Bud¬
says. “In contrast to it. Chris¬
has gained greatly in influ¬
in recent years. Christian mis¬
besides undertaking the evan¬
of the people, carry on ef¬
medical and educational work,
for themselves great popular¬
and the confidence of the people.”

EDUCATION OF MORGAN COI N
J Y MAKING BIG PLANS.
County Superintendent E. C. Bird,
of Alorgan County, with tlie assis¬
tance ol' the Board of Education of
that comity, are planning to stand¬
ardize every school in the county be¬
fore tin* end of Hie spring term.
This is a large undertaking and one
that is being watched with interest
by the various counties of the state.
They will make an effort to get every
child of school age in the county to
attend school.
Another move that is being made
by the superintendent of the county
schools and the hoard is one that is
attracting even more attention than
■ ■'ling al the children in school. This
move is to organide night schools in
every school district and teach every
grown white person how to read and
write. If this succeeds, as is planned
illiteracy will he wiped off the map in
Alorgan county.
This move ou the part of tlie school
authorities of that county is one that
deserves tlie co-operation of every per¬
son in Alorgan county, and they will
no doubt have it.
Why' can’t New ton, do something
like this? This county has always led
hi education in the state in practically
every department of the rural schools,
and this move on the part of Alorgan.
county could well be applied to this
county.
