Spiritual Education
Larry O. Ground
Horace Mann one*' said, ‘‘.Jails
and state prisons are the comp
lement of schools; so inanjy less
as you have of the latter so
j many more you have of the for
j n:cr,“ The moral of the above
I statement is expressed by l’.urke
when he said, "Education is the
'elTeap defense id' nations," True
education to any nation can not
! be over emphasized. If we are
to lessen the number of inmates
in our prisons and better safe
■ guard our liberty, we must
j strive to better our educational
facilities.
|
| Real education is that which
! developes both the outward and
inward man. "Education should
\
( be as broad as man." Emer
son. lint as man is both spiritu
al and physical, education must
I bp adapted to both. Jesus, the
I
I perfect man. advanced in wis
dom and stature, and in favor
with God SPIRITUALLY and
Men SOCIALLY. (Luke 2:52). If
we are to achieve the symmetry
and beatitv of life that our Lord
4
possessed our. growth or educa
_
lion must bo both spiritually and
socially. He who cultivates1 one
to the neglect of the other is lop
sided.
Christianity is a system of ed
ucation of the hghest pliane.
Almost everything that we hold
dear is derived" directly or in
directly from Christianity or the
Bible. Despite this fact, many
are not as familiar with their
Bible as they should be. Hence
the reason for these articles
which shall appear weekly in
your newspaper. If they in any
way lend to your spiritual edu
cation they will be worth the time
land expense of publishing, and
will have fulfilled the purpose
for which they were written.
You may not agree with some
of the thoughts presented in
these articles, but before passing
judgment, examine critically and
without prejudice the things
said with your Bible. Tf at tiny
time you have questions or com
ments. this writer would appre
ciate them. Address them to *hP
Polaris. Every question and
comment received shall receive
prompt and courteous attention.

MAN-MADE WEATHER

PITTSFIELD, Mass. (UP- De
velopment of man-made precipi
tation now has reached a point
where two pounds of dry ice
costing five cents can produce 12
inches of snow over nil the Adir
ondack Mountains.
So says Vincent ,L Schaefer.

weather researcher.
Before there can be further de
velopments. he says, man must

In the future, he believes, the
process will be beneficial to hu
man welfare in its modifying ef
fects—“th • prevention of hail
storms, eliminating of severe ic
ing storms and other undesirable
things.”
"We know," says Schaefer, who
has conducted rain-making exper
iments in New Hampshire, New
York and Massachussetts, “that
one small pea of pry ice when
seeded in the proper cloud form
ation can produce up to 800,000
tons of snow.”
