There are, more young Americans seeking education than there is room for, and from al the large cities we learn that thé school accommoda- tions are not adequate and that large numbers of children are debarred from attending public schools because no provisions have been made for them. The building of school houses is as constant as the bullding of churches to meet the requirements of the peo- ple. It is not strange that in a coun- try with 50,000,000 school children—a country that is growing in population faster than any other nation upon earth—should find it difficult to keep pace with the demand for educational privileges. The American public expects too much of the' teacher and do too little themsélves for the advancement of the children. John Locke defined the pur- pose of education as the development of sound minds in sound bodies. The sound body end of the problem de- pends more upon the parents than they seem to realize, and if the chil- dren were better cared for and fed there Is no doubt the teacher could attaln better results. As the school year opens parents would do well to aid in the work off schooling the children by seeing that they are courteous and obedient and informed as thoroughly as possible what good work in school means to them. TWENTIETH CENTURY REVELA- TIONS. 3 It appears that the cement age up- on which we are entering is not the first cement age of man. The experi- ence of late years with cement has opened the eyes, of explorers to. the Possibility that the Mexicans and the old cliff dwellers understood the art of making stone objects, even to dwelling places. It is believed now that the gigantic ruins in Mexico which represent the design and labor of a vanished civilization, were con- structed of concrete, cast in gigantic size. The explanation is plausible. The difficulty that must have attend- ed the transformation of what have been believed to ‘be colossal stone blocks vanishes if they were really made of concrete, for which abundant material was easily obtalnable. It is also possible that the remote race con- cerned achieved better concrete con- struction than we have yet obtained. The abundant carving of a compara- tively crude sort that appears in the remains of these ruined cities could have been done in concrete. THE POLE. The American people are generally well informed as to the nature of the geographical poles, and the newspaper readers are not a little amused to read from Peary descriptions of the North pole as if it were like the mast of a ship toc have a flag nalled to it, and to be brought home and placed in a museum as an object for the curious to look upon and admire. In his despatches Peary has treated the subject in a way which has simply surpriséd the eople. In nis latest averment that e is the oaly white man who ever saw the Dele, he is mindful of the fact that Dr. Cook and his Eskimos only saw “the Great Nail,” which we are told in Eskimo is its equiva- lent. ‘1t is not probable that either one of these men stood exactly upon the spot which marked the earth’s axial center. The geographical pole is of itsell a great expansegof ice and it Is probable that a half hundred explorers might figure themselves as being at the North pole without be- ing in sight of one another. Com-.| mander Peary’s flgures of speech, like his careless assertions, need revision. —_— If Speaker Cannon does think that this is a government of the people, he cannot deny that the “bosses” ven~ ture to give a good deal of advice, . and to work a few jobs H It is to the credit of Nicholas that judgment, or a particle of mercy in driving through the work at which in six years’ time a quarter of a miflion lives were' sacrificed. In the weork the prisoners used as workmen did not have so much as a shovel, and yet, before a foundation could be laid, in- dergrowth had to be cleared, swamps had to be drained and embankments thrown ‘up. Earth was scarce, and had to be fetched from a distance, the workmen scraping it up with their hands and transporting it in their shirts or in bags improvised out of rags or matting. There was no shel- ter for the men, and they were often without food for two days at a time. he proposes to make it now regard~ less of expense a credit to the nation. PIN-BALL DAY. Newburyport, Mass.,, has a Pin-ball day for the benefit of charity instead of a Tag-day. The Bulletin sees in it something better. It is not a game but a business; and it does seem ab- surd to attempt to make a game of the raising of funds for charitable purposes. We all know the Pin-ball when we see it, and recognize that it is a mighty handy and useful thing for a benedict or a bachelor to havé in his pocket, as well as for a woman or a maid to have in her work basket. Though a little thing, it fs a great emergency dependence. It invites patronage because it is something everybody can find a use for. Of course, everybody uses pins and there are times when a pin is of more importance than a deilar. It is an implement of large responsibilities like the suspender button and never ought to be scarce any ‘more than matches. Pin-ball day ought to knock Tag-day out, WHAT THEY BELIEVE. There is no rorth and® no south, east or west, when it comes to this Polar issue. We clip this from the Charleston News and Courier: “We believe that both Dr. Cook and Commmander Peary reached the North pole. Dr. Cook, at least, is behaving as if he was sure of his ground, and if the despatches credited to him be true, Commander Peary is behaving like a spoiled child, Thera has been nothing finer than Dr. Cook’s splendid poise so far in the controversy.” This is a fair reflection of what the country in general feels with refer- ence to the issue. When Commander Peary reaches New York his I-am- ness is going to shrink worse than the corn crop estimate has since July. His apparent jealousy and unrighteous zeal Lo crush a man of equal bravery and better balance has surPrised the country. He is expecting too much and will be doomed to bitter disap- pointment. EDITORIAL NOTES. The Elis and Cornell are getting in- to form to do Harvard soon on the gridiron. The man in the moon could not ap- pear here and establish his identity without furnishing the proof. Happy thought for today: Never mind what you lost yesterday, for it is what you gain today that counts. An aeroplane should be sent to Syd- ney for Commander Peary to come to New York on at the rate of a mile a minute. It is reported that Harriman was worth a hundred mijlion, which gives assurance that his family will not come to want. Colonel Bryan thinks that the demo- crats have had so many severe chills of late that they ought to make suc- cessful Arctic explorers. The statement that Mr. Rockefeller was never in a passion can hardly be true, for his passion for accumulating money is without abatement. As time elapses how many ham- mers are liable to turn up in the fu- ture that were used in nailing the American flag to the North pole. A Wilkes-Barre minister is said to furnish gumdrops to the girls to toll the young men to church. It is sweet to follow where the fair iead. Attention is being called to the at- mospheric perfection of the 13th just to show that it is not so unlucky a day as some would have us believe.
