NOYES. jar and ington three y other paper in Aw a local NEWS paper and Ad- ising Medium it has no competitor. the city. ve ‘There is no danger of antagonisms and con- fiicts between the recently organized Sanitary League and the city authorities. was formed for the purpose of co-operating with and assisting the officials. The purpose of the League is set forth in its constitution in these words “The objects of this association shall be the improvement of the health of tho eitizens of the District of Columbia by the collections of data with regard to existing or threatened dangers to the public health of the city, the diffasion of information with regard to the best means of removing or preventing such causes of danger and by aiding as far as poswi- ble the proper authorities in their efforts to improve the sanitary condition of the District and to prevent the introduction or spread of It is composed of good citizens, men and women of common sense, whore sole effort is toaid in placing Washington where it will be without a rival in point of heaithfulness.. With such an aim in view it isridiculous to suppose, as some people have, that they would jeopard- ize the success of the movement by antagoniz- ing or interfering in any manner with the work of the constituted authorities. It is their pur. pote to encourage that work in every wi Much that is to be done by the league lies outside the province of official action. It is educational. In this phase of its work it prom- ises to prove a most powerful auxiliary to the health department, for it will prepare the peo- ple to welcome the health office inspector and toaid him in every way to speedily accom- plish his task. This was recognized by the constituted snthorities of the city, who were fully informed of the movement at its in- ception, and gave it the benefit of their ap- proval and their presence and advice at the meeting at which the plan was adopted. The need for a thorough sanitary survey of the city, with the possibility in view of an outbreak of cholera, was recognized by the league and ‘y the District Commissioners. Such a survey is Detieved to be beyond the limited means placed by Congress at the disposal of the officials. Much ean be accomplished by fhe voluntary | efforts of citizens, in connection with vigorous work of the bealth department, and the leagae bas adresse; tive effort on the part of citizens. But this is only « fraction of what has been planned by the league. It proposes co-operation not only with the municipal authorities, but with the Medical Society, the Museum of Hygiene, the quarantine service, and every organization or official body interested in or charged with any @utfes in connection with the heslth of the community. lection of information regarding sanitary laws and ordinances, and the obtaining, from the Dest sources, of data that would be of incaleu- lable value in the event of an epidemic, Com- mittees of eficlent men are engaged in inquiries relating to school hygiene, hospital manage- ment, the treatment of contagious diseares and other kindred matters, The health department will find this organization of citizens its most zy and there need be no fear of Some litte time ago Commander Jewell,of the Taited States navy, expressed the opinion, in a lecture, that war was now practically impos: Je, This conclusion was not based upon the theory that mankind was any better or more peaceable than it always has been, but was com- pelled by the fact that murderots applinnces have been so multiplied and perfected as to prohibit strife. Nothing could be more des! able than ths evolution of suck a millennial cone | dition, but the time is ni war will be far m: guinary predecessors, but military ecicnce has not yet reached the point where annihilation of agreat force is possible. When emoke- less gunpowder was adopted by the Eu- Fopean powers it was argued that terrific slaughter would be a certain consequence, but that claim was upset by the invention of a emoke-producing bomb which would becloud Dattle-fields and make possible the movement of large bodies of troops without the enemy's | knowledge. Then camo the terror generated by the small caliber builet ejected from rapi: firing magazine rifles, but before this murder- ous combinstion could prove its efficiency in actual warfare at least two men succeed in making cloth which cannot be penetrated even at short range by the swittest of these missiles. Ordnance experts have fashioned great gu: that propel ezcrmous projectiles at tremendous speed, but steclworking genius has produced armor plate that defies the conical chell, while eellulore and air-tight compartment-construc- tion combine to render modern naval vessels unsinkable. It would be most gratifying to every intelligent man and woman if the peace of the world could be assured by international agreement, but that seems not to be possible Just now, There are too many old s:ores to be Paid off among the empires of Europe to make arbitration « present probability. ‘The next great Foreign advices have for some time past In- icated a probability of commotion in Egyp due to the inability of the young and inex- Perienced Khedive to understand that Great Britain and not be rules thy land of the Pharaobs. Utterly forgetful of the fact that England placed his father upon the throne and | ‘thus made bis accession posible, the Khedive is creating a great deal of anti-English sentiment, ‘which, however, can never be of any real use tohim. Whether he realizes it or not, occupation is civilizing the country and will in | time give it great mercantile prominence.

Tux Staz is not an advocate of profizate expenditures, but It caa- not agree with the Sux in its denunciation of those members of the House of Representatives who voted themselves the assistance of @ clerk each. To be sure, the clerk hire wili, at @100 Per session-month each, amount to a considera- Die sum, but the provision was sensibly eco- nomic. Under conditions past those who were chosen to legisiate in the House bad but little time to attend to the most important of their daties because their waking hours had to be devoted to correspond- ence and to minor departmental matters suck as could easily be disposed of by an intel- ligent clerk. Itis true that “this luxury of every member baring hisown private secretary. Paid by the governmext, has heretofore been confined to the aristocratic and more laxarious , Senate,” and it is no less true “that it was un- known in either branch of Congress to the fathers of the republic, or to the Senate of Webster, Clay and Calhoun,” but neither of ‘Whose facts can be seriously regarded as arga- itself to securing such co-opera- | It has already set about the col | | models the yoang begi will be | ment, nor is there much force in the statement that it costs nearly one-fourth as much to main- tain the Senate of today as it did to support the entire first administration of President Wasb- ington, This couptry has grown much since its father retired to Mount Vernon, and many | important changes have taken place in the | years which separate us from the period when | Webster, Clay and Calhoun flourished. The | stage coach has been superseded by the loco- motive, the omnibus by the cable car, the sail- ing vessel by “ocean greyhounds,” the tele- | phone and telegraph annihilate distance, and where the pen once reigned supreme there are the phonographand the typewriter. Everything | that adds to the efficiency of busy man finds » | ready market and there is continual demand for labor-saving machinery in ali lines of en- deavor. The employment of these industrial aids cannot be stigmatized as extravagance, nor is it logical to inst that because our early leg- | islators did not need private secretaries the | same situation prevails today. —_—- ee —___ | ‘The intelligence of a city te fairly reflected in | its schools. Chicago logicians may be inclined | to argue that such'a rule does not apply to the | public institutions of learning in the lakeside city, but their arguments cannot but be re- | garded as weak by those who have read of the results of Dr. J. M. Rice's investigation. Dr. Rice is probably the most practical and ad- vanced of American educators, an expert in the science of pedagogy. He has been wandering up and down the land studying the various public school systems and has come to the well- sed conclusion that the standard in Chicago is very low. ‘This condition is, says the investigator, due to an insufficiency of supervision and to the fact that the qualifi- cations requisite to procure a teacher's certi- 10 are too few and too easily attained. Dr. Rice had some extremely interesting expe- riences, especially with the teachers, and his comments on their peculiarities, published in the Forum, would be laughable were the sub- ject one of little importance. The least eff- cient instructors were forever assuring him that their respective schools were the best in the city, and one of them was so shockingly un- grammatical as to receive special attention in the report. “You wasn't smart that time,” and “You wasn’t quick enough,” were expres- sions used by her in speaking tothe scholars, and in excusing some of their shortcomings she frequently referred to the “flustrated” condi- tion of her charges. Some of the reading done in‘another school represented what the doctor | said was the result of the moct perverted form of instraction he ever found anywhere. The oungest pupils were started on their distortive areer in response to a command to begin with the “‘mouth movements,” whereupon half a hundred little ones rang the changeson the owels a, eando, While uttering the sound “a” (which was asin “car”) the mouths were stretched open as far as they would go; in ‘‘e” the corners were drawn as closely as possible to the ears, and in “‘oo” the lips were pointed, The facial expression of the pupils must bave been extremely grotesque; to sce fifty pupils | thus oceupied at once presented a scene that | beggars description. Then the teacher said, “Your tongues are not loose," and at once the | fifty youngsters put out their tongues and | wagged them in all directions, and then, says | Dr. Rice, “the principal complimented the | children highly on the superiority of their wagging." Well may he remark, “What an idea | these pupils must have recelved of the purpose | of @ school whea from the start they were | tanght systematically how to make grimaces | and wag their tongues!" Following these ex- traordinary and meuningless exercises came @ j succession of head movements and more facial | eccentricity, ‘Then there was reading and | the pupils were supposed to apply thelr physiognomical gymnastics to the reading, | “Their appearance and actions while reading, says Dr. ice, “were enougn to make one shud- | der, To me many of the pupils did not look | rational when they read,” Everything wasdone |im the most tragiea! and impressively absurd manner, most unnatural and supremely ridicue lous, In another room the pupils stared hore ribly and flung startled giances broadcast in ade dition to twisting their visagesso that they were not in the likeness of anything in the heavens | above or the earth beneath or the waters under | the earth, From euch training as this willoome self-consciousness and affectation, both dane ‘THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D.
