In his first message to the United States Congress, President Roosevelt said: There are two pillars upon which every nation must rest, namely, Christianity and Education. All good people agree with this declaration, and many of us are of the conviction that we should practice it in our govern mental affairs. God must be the ruler of our temporal affairs, if we are to have Him guide us in the eternal. Jesus Christ must be the Saviour of the state as well as of the individual, or there is no authority for righteousness or deliverance from evils which afflict the people and take them to physical, mental and moral decay. One-half of the people cannot allow the other half to remain in ignorance, and not be held back by this hindering influence. If one-half the Nation is left in ignorance, it will hang like a millstone of destruction around the necks of those who strive for peace and safety.
