NO, 16,188, “Supplementary "’ Education. ident Frank According to Vic A, Vanderlip, of the National City Bank, the country’s hope is in the schoolmaster. Its. special pressing need is for “a supplementary educa-| tion of the rank and file, the privates in the great industrial army.” By a coincidence Senator Dryden a few hours before had been demon- strating to the Armstrong commnittee | what a superior supplementary acad- emy for the rank and file an ine surance company is. “Industrial in-| surance,” said he, “is the greatest educator in thrift, It is the greatest economic force in the world.” The Senator had particular reference to the benevolent Prudential | Life, in which the expenses have exceeded the payments to policy-holders | by $38,000,000, The education in thrift may seem in this case to have I'LL Soon BE WITH You | | been one-sided. a But the principle holds good for other great financial institutions, AVhat an educative influence, for example; the New York Life has exerted under those accomplished preceptors, George W. Perkins and John A. McCall! No such supplementary business college courses as the Mutual and the Equitable have furnished free of tuition have ever before been offered the public. As for additional moral instruction, what a whole theological semi-| nary the Steel Trust has been! Its latest contribution to moral teaching is by President W. E. Corey, who is represented as turning from thoughts of the footlights to “(get data to fight fire with fire’ and to publish for revenge a secret chapter of a cele rated scandal. There seems to be no lack either of academies or professors for this supplementary" education. The Republic and the Army. Lieut-Col, James $. Pettit, military instructor of the District of Columbia, a regular army officer, received applause and approval at a meeting of the Military Service Institution on Governor's Island Wednes- day, when he declared that the army of a republic could not be made as efficient as that of a monarchy. This absurd doctrine is not borne out by the records of history. Pettit’s ling Of thought seems to be that the arbitrary power of a king over-his subjects assures the making of an eflective army much more readily than under republican conditions.
