That colleze professor who says that starving is not a painful pro- cess, as usual with his kind, takes purely the academic view of a prac_ tical question. We feel sure that the people of Belzium would not en- dorse hig view of the subject, and he would doubtless reverse himself on an appeal his heaq after a few day- of abstin- ence from provender. SR B St In civilizea war there is an ex- r.-pan:',,. of prisonerg at intervals and truces to bury the dead and remove the wounded from the battlefield; but in the present bharbarous conflict in Europe there is neither truce nor exchange and thousands of wounded men lie zone of agonl 5 relief to hat all th fire enduring unti] death That Hazue e been an unconscious humbug way through. un comes to their —0 With the :xchange in New York again open, the infatuated suckerg who hang around the brok- ers' offices up there, buyin- stocks on margins with the fool hope that they are on a sure road and a short . will azain resame | cut to fortune, business, whils the brokess them. selves will softly murmur as of yore “There's one of 'em born every mir- ute.” The stork exchange may part of the nece sary machinery of our financial system, but, except the stock gamblers, nobody seemed suffer because of its suspension for several month And many a sucker wasn't separated from his monev for the same reason. =SSty SRS Jehn P, Stokes, the well-known Pensacola lawyer, is now in Ocala to help the prosecution in the celebrac_ ed Hough murder case, and the Star of that city pays him high tribute as a man, lawyer and legislator. The tribute is deserved. Stokes is a man of extraordinary ability and force of he character, and while Emmet Wilson i beat him for Cougress the last time in West Florida, it is by no means certain that he can do it the next time if Stokes chooses to again com- ' pete with him. We are very fond of recognizing big, strong, “coming’ men among the citizens of Florida, and, as Harry Floyd savs, we hand our sprig of lilac to John P. Stokes. —_— Powell says that he's making s. much money conducting the Clear. " water Sun that he can’t afford to be a candidate for any office, hence must decline in advance the job of managing a State bureau of immi- gration. 1t has been <o tong since we had authentic news of a man who would not only reverse the usual rule and permit the office to seek him, but actually turn it down after it got in hailing distance that we feel a strong desire to run over to Clearwater and make a close, first hand inspection of the editor of the Sun. He is clearly a rever:ion' to the primitive and well-nigh obso- ' —— e (( uller advantage: from his stomach te/ Tribunal seems to! California is a great State, not because- nature put great re- sources there, but because the Lali- fornians themselve: are a ereat peo- ple of indomitable courage and en- ergy, masterful ability and incur- able optimism. And they are going to make a success of that Panama exposition, despite the European war and the absence of exhibits, from many States and countries, More’s the pity that Florida will not be represented, for in oranges and grapefruit we can “put it all over’ the Golden State, and if we could zet some of our typical all-the-year climate on exhibition there, “give me a ticket to Florida” would be the popular demanq at ticket windows ‘all over the West in consequence. We've got the goods, but we haven't learned how to advertise them. S The Clearwater Sun throws out ‘the following sugzestion to a con- 'tempmry that is making itself busy ~uggesting how the newspaper field in Lakeland might be occupied to “The Dade City Star is being {Fletcherizeq by the Lakeland Tele- lgmm hecause that paper essayed to I'mmark that Lakeland was a good field for another paper—that is, lfsin«*o Hetherington's son started a |paper in opposition to the Star in |Dade City some one :hould step on wa's toes at Lakeland.

Along with ali the talk about iwhat the schools should teach should go the definite nunderstandine !that the most important azency for | education, for turning out the rizht lsort of voung men ana young wom- 'en, is not the school but the home. Some persons seem to be getting the Eidea that when a child arrives at ischool age it becomes the duty of 'lt.he school authoritles to assume re- | sponsibility for not only filling its head with information but alsu training it up in the right path of morality and relizion. It is well to remember, however, that the schog! can be only supplementary to the home, can only be looked upon as an assistant to the parents in mak- ing good citizens out of boys anc¢ girls. Those who take the opposite view disagree with Commissioner P. P. ('laxton of the United States Bureau of Education, who in his latest an- nual report calls especial attention to the fact that the parents, instead of the school teachers, are the most important instructors of the chil_ dren. ““The home,” he -aid, “the ‘primirive and primary institution for the education of children, is still cation for life—physical, mental, moral, industrial, economie, social, civic.” Some school reformers would convert the schools into a sort of universa] mold from which would issue perfect graduates, phy. sically, mentally, morally and in e ,ery other way, may be disappointed because the commis-toner puts jmich stress upon parental tea 80 ng, isure to think he is right about it. It ig true, however, that tie teach- one may lap over the other in man) places. There should be the closest co-operation between the two sets of instructors, because if they work at cro:s purposes the child is likely {to suffer. Parents should hecome thoroughly acquainted with what is being dome in the schools and there is no question that sugeestions of fered by associations of parents and teachers, sueh as have been organ- ized by the score throughout the country, might be of very zreat ben_ ,efit to the children. ‘Parents have no right to fold | their hands and think their duty done when the child trips off to . ;sohool for the first time—to think that the time has come for the. i school authorities to relieve them al-; together of the work of educatingtp the youngster. As a matter of fact the time has come then for even closer attention on their part to the itraining of the child. for it has . reached an age at which the impres. sions it receives are most la: Lm.. ‘and the real bending of the r\n' into the way the tree will zrow | begun . ](!q »d the same for the uses and purposes in set forth and expressed. al) DAVID 0 ROGERS, Notary Public My commission oxpires May 18, 1916 STATE OM MI) )TA COUNTY OF WRIGHT.
