Fulltext: TREE ONLY .... THE ONLY TRUE EDUCATION Napoleon was far from being an ardent supporter of organized religion, but in his attitude towards religious education he was wiser. than many of the so-called wise-men of our modern generation This is what the great general had to say on the subject: "Up to the present the only good education we have met with is that of the ecclesiastical bodies. I would rather see the children of a village in the hands of a man who only knows his catechism, but whose principles are known to me, than of a half-baked man of learning who has no foundations for his morality and no fixed ideas. Religion is the vaccine of the imagination; she preserves it from all dangerous and absurd beliefs. An ignorant friar knows enough to !tell ;a working man that this life is but a passage. It you take faith away from the people, you will end by producing nothing but highway robbers." PHOTO. C. AERTS
