They say nay in word, but they do so in deed. For to the one they will gladly give a stipend of 200 crovtns by the year and are loath to offer to the other 200 shil- lings. God that sitteth in heaven laugheth their choice to scorn and rewardeth their liberality as it should. For He suffereth them to have tame and well-ordered horses but wild and unfortunate chil- dren.” It is interesting to note that this matter of inadequate pay for “schoolmasters” was a satirically burning question 350 years ago, Even then there were people who thought a child, as a representative unit of not only mental! but also moral force, more precious and fundamentally powerful as regards the state than—a means of joy riding. The wages for grooms in 1565 seems to have been about (translated into American money) $240 a year, as against $48 “loathingly offered” to educators.

Sub sequent editions of the paper ferred, in colored inks, to the clarion tone of its successful denunciation of the labor leader's intended de- slens.
