TRIAL BY JURY AND THE U. 8. COUF The ded on of the U, 8 supreme court yesterday, declaring that striking railroad shopmen of 1922 were entitled to & jury trlal when | charged with contempt of court, goes to the root of the matter when it | declares such a jury trial was pre- dicated upon the Clayton act and as strikers the men remained legally under the purview of the act. It was an important pojnt at law and reqiired the exalted capacity of the ligh vourt to sbttle. The con- tempt procecdings against Yhe strik- ers was in line w h the legal ideas of, former Attorney General Daugh- mates made at a conference in the mayor's office. It looks like a lot of money. Verily, educating the young comes high, but | they've got to be educated! The three new schools which can be built with this outlay ought to be sufficient for the city for some vears. The schools proposed prise one 16-room school in the so-" called Monroe school district; com- one 16-room school in the so-called Lin- coln school district; and a 10-room achool oi the Viets tract. The city authorities can r sured that citizens generally st as- favor enough schools to accommodate ail the children of the city, and that part time schooling is regarded as not only a wrong inflicted up6n such children who are compelled to sus- tain it, but is something that cannot be permitted to continue indefinitely. New Britain is not alone in sufer- ing from the needs school houses; it is a civic ailment of insufficient that dates from war days when the customary increase in buildings was | interfered, with and cities everywhere now must ‘catch up with the needs | of their poplation. Sufficient schools buildings are a source of satisfaction and pride to | citizens; insufficient buildings are a | source of irritation, promote inefii- ciency in the school plant and cause | a condtiion that is wrong im princi- ple.

Then he goes on to point out to the farmer that although he is get- ting less for his corn than he did before the war, when he sells it to Chicago he has.to pay double the freight. The letter continues: “You state that 650 bushels of corn wagon today.

Dr. John E. Klingberg, the pastor, was accepted with regret. Dr. Klingberg was requested to re- tain his position as pastor but said he was unable to do se because of the increasing duties of the Chil- dren’s Home of which he is founder and superintendent, “He told his congregation that he and his family would retain their membership in the church and would continue to help the church to presper. A committee was appointed to re- quest that Dr. Klingberg remain as pastor in charge until January 1 until a/successor can be secured. Dr. Klingberg was assured that the congregation is baek of the Chil- dren's Home and would support ft after he leaves his pastorate as en- thusiastically as it has done in the past 21 years.

But if you add only 121-2 inches to the steel band it would stand away two ipches from the earth's' surface around the entire 24,000 miles circumference, Every- body would say that is impossible, but any mathematician will demon- rate that it 19 a fac Belng a banker he loves to dally {with figures and in pursuit of his cruel and unusual punishments on statistics.

Now a pin is practically indestruc- ible, * Unlessit is melted up, a pin will_endure unchanged for—to be conservative—b0 years. Yet in that time the lost and discarded pins would cover the surface of the earth with a layer two feet thick." Turning to a more gruesome sub- ject, the banker dealswith the ceme- terles and burying grounds of one of the large cities of the United States “There are 24 large cemeterles in and about the city,” he goes on, “and, in addition, 35 small burying grounds of one kind or another.

FRANK CRANE'S DAILY EDITORIAL | The Foundation of Faith By DR. FRANK CRANE There has been a good deal of discussion recently, especially in Eng- land, on the foundation of faith. . ] Some people seem to think that the progress of sciencé has taken afay some of the supports of their faith. One by ome superstitions and gratutious limaginings have had to be given up. It s supposed that faith rests upon these. As a matter of fact, faith is merely the projection of our mind from what we do’ know into what we do not know. The realm of what we Ap not know is always infinite; while the realm of what we do know' is finite. No matter how far out we push the boundaries of science, of exact knowledge, it/must always reveal to the undld.mlnd how great is the exteny of what we do not know. Carlyle speaks of tho great sea of nescience, on which all our selence floats as a mere superficial film. A good analogy Is, this earth and the rest of the planets. Naturally our experience cannot -extend beyond the earth and yet we know that all around us are the infinite heavens.
