[To THE EDITOR OP TES " S2ECTATOR."] SIE,—The Archdeacon of
Lindisfarne in his letter in your last issue says : "If the authority see fit, they can teach in [provided] schools the Apostles' Creed. That Creed is, within the meaning of the Act, undenominational,' but it is cer- tainly not undogmatic.' " In illustration of this I may refer to .the Syllabus of Religious Instruction adopted .by the Oxfordshire Education Committee, at the opening of which the Apostles' Creed is printed. It is included in the subjects for repetition for all the three groups of older children.—I [We cannot, after this week, continue any general dis- cussion of the Education Bill in our correspondence columns. We shall, however, if occasion serves, print letters dealing with points of special importance, or making new and useful suggestions for a national settlement of the problem.— ED. Spectator.]
