Triumph of Platitude

" Righteousness First"

A resolution recently adopted by the legislature of the State of South Dakota urged:

1) That the schools promptly reform their methods so that the rudimentary studies as well as science be taught only as subordinate to righteousness.

2) That the emphasis be placed on morality, good conscience, respect for, parents, reverence for age and experience, and that all learning is but the handmaiden of eternal goodness.

3) That thereby the balance may be restored between the spiritual and the material.
