LOVE OF ANIMALS IS
KEY TO CHARACTER
ing
In an "Introduction," written for
"Thoughts on Humane Education.,"
P. P. Claxton, U. S. Commissioner of
Education, says: "The really great
are ever gentle and kind and the
greatest are the kindest and most
gentle. Cruelty and indifference to
the feelings of one's fellows or of
any sentient beings are marks of
coarseness of nature or want of!
proper instruction and training.
Fineness of fibre, inherited or ac
qured, in man or woman, as in woods
and textiles and cordage, is a sure
element of strength.
"Thoughtfulness of the feelings
and interests and welfare of others
comes chiefly from careful instruc
tion and training in childhood ana
youth. Learning to think and care
for the welfare of wild and domestic
animals makes one more thoughtful
and careful of the feelings and wel
fare of men, women and children.
"How much richer and fuller is the
life of the man or woman who has
learned to sympathize with all na
ture and to treat all creatures kind
ly and mercifully. For indeed tne
quality of mercy is not strained. It
blesses him that gives even more
than him that receives. Our best
living is not in abstract and logical
thinking, but-in true and kindly liv-
and in actions prompted by good
will. He who has learned to regard
the birds as little brothers of the air
and to look upon domestic animals
and the beasts' of the field as his less
fortunate kindred who need his help
finds a pleasure in their color md
voice and motions, and a joy in the
contemplation of their habits un
known to those who are without
this feeling of kinship. He feels, as
others' cannot, the throb of the life
of the world and rejoices in the re
cognition of his kinship with the
universe.
"The teaching which leads to these
results is a part of the inalionabie
rights of all children and must be in
cluded in the education of home and
school if we would replace the oB
cruelties by thoughtful kindness and
make the new world a uri
"iiu ui nee-
dom and progress and wwu.
love."

SIXTH SUNDAY AFTER TRINITY
The June Wedding Bells are silent, and it may be appropriate
to explain the preference of our Church tor the underrated
Church Building for Wedding Ceremonies; it is not altogether
a question of taste with us, and of course, other religious bodies
are left, without criticism, to their own ideas. We believe that
to decorate the Church draws a line between those who have
money and friends, and those who ai;e not so provided for, and
the House of God should be exactly the same for all. When two
miserable "sinners drift up the aisle for the wedding ceremony. in
a Church more profusely adorned for them, than for the Presence
of Almighty God in the ordinary Christian assembly, something
is wrong with somebody, and St. Mark 11:15.16 suggests itself
automatically. The natural joy, with its reverence, sobriety and
fear of God, found expression, in, former divorceless days, in the
reception of the Holy Eucharist at an earlier hour. The familiar
expression "WTedding Breakfast" comes frdm the meal after that
early Eucharist.
