The court now holds that the law does not prohibit the use of the Bible in public scIkmiIb; that it is not proscribed either bv the constitution or by the statutes unless the practice of re.U'ng therelroiu lakes the form of secUr an instruction.

I will take this opportunity to say to the members of the Womana Missionary Societies at Bodarc and Union Star, that acclaim by the church people of the stale whw were very much exercised thereat. Following is the syllabus: "Ono The risht of all persons to wor ship Almighty God according lo the dic tates of their owu conscience is declared by tlie constiluliou of tins stale lo be a natural and iuueleusible light, 'Two '1 here is nothing in the consti tution or laws of this state, nor in the history of our people u-on which to ground a claim that is the duly of gov ernment to teach religion. "Three Tlie whole duty of the state with respect to religieu is lo protect every religious denomination in Ihe peace able enjoyment of its own mode ol public worship.

"Six H is immaierial whether the ob jection of a parent fo his children at tending and parlicipat 03 in a religious service conducted by a teucher in the school mom during school hours is rea sonable or unreasonable. The right to be unreiisonable in such matters is guarr- snteed by the constitution. Seven The law does not forbid th u.-se of the Bible 11 the public schools; it is not pro-c, ibed either by the constitut ion o:- thestatue.t and the couns have no riijht to declare its use to be unlawful Iwcuuse it is possible or probable that llio-'e who are privileged to u.-e it will misuse the prtvelee by attempting to propoxate their own pecubar theological orecclesiastic.il viewsand opin-ojs.
