Except for the killing of the Saranac guide, Fred Barbour, at Moose Pond, we recall no other simt- Ter fatality iu the Adirondacks, though the Sullivan ¥ County season and the few open days on Long Island produced several cases of severe or mortal wounds in- flicted through such mistakes. Of all the deaths re- ported the saddest occurred near Lancaster, 8.

He waits to get a better view of his target and his caution saves him much remorse, while incidentally, contributing to make his guide and his fellow-sports- men better insurance risks HIGH SCHOOL INFLATION. ‘At the time of the creation of the Steel Trust it was satd that a stroke of the pen had made a hundred men a@yillionaires. A somewhat similar quick-creative process fm education has occurred in {hicago, where a con- vention of 200 principals of high schools voted to sup- port President Harper's plan of taking the first two years x of college work from the college and adding them to the ¥y high school curriculum. In effect this means the addition of 200 new colleges ta the existing number. It puts the high schoole adopt- ing the innovation on the preferred let and provides for an increased output of college degrees. In a way it fs an extension of the get-an-education-quick !dea which has lately been much in favor with educators. _ No doubt the scheme has its good points. It will Turnish a fair substitute for a college diploma to youths of Iimited means and will make possible an earlier start \ in a profession. But doer it not partake of the same principles of E> inflation which have been found to be so reprehensible i in finance? Is it not another phase of overcapltaliza- tion? It is tu be remarked without prejudice to the yi venture that it suggests Morganeering as applied to education. AMERICAN MANUFACTURING SKILL. A decrease in the tmportation of luxuries {s noted. Is 1 4 not the cause to be found in a national development of skill in craftsmanship which is putting us ahead of Burope in the production of such articles? It is certain that American-made jewelry has attained 5 ® perfection of form and finish which renders it superior to. the foreign product. Of two articles of jewelry made along similar lines the American not only in many cases appears more artistic, but it now possesses an intrinsic value which makes it the better purchase. Not only {8 it manufactured on a closer margin of profit, but in its re- tall price no transatlantic freight 1a reckoned or broker's charges.
