BIBLE IN SCHOOLS
SUPPORT AT TIMARU Press Association. TIMARU, Tuesday. At a well-attended Bible-in-Schools meeting to-night, addressed by Sir James Allen and the Rev. D. Gardner Miller, of Christchurch, Sir James Allen moved: “That this meeting views as inadequate the present system of education, because it is entirely secular. The principle is a menace to moral and religious welfare, a danger to the State and an injustice to the child. The meeting therefore demands from Parliament the restoration of the Bible to primary schools. While pi*epared to grant to the committee the right to continue the Nelson system wherever it may be at present operating, it views as inadequate the system that does not place the Bible-in-Schools in the curriculum and cannot be applied to all primary schools of the Dominion.”
