The Sacramento Bee says that
the Pioneers propose to make an
effort before the Legislature to
have another hoIiday-September
9th, being Admission Day added
to the calendar. 1t comes at a
convenient time-about midway
between the Fourth of July and
Thanksgiving Day. We hope the
effort will be successful. We
American people do not have half
enough holidays. The people of
Europe have unnumbered holi-
days, and enjoy life as well, and
can count as much money on hand
as the average American can at
the end of the year. Too much
hurry -burly in this country after
the trade dollar.-ALpj,ae Chronicle,

Education asks why not one in ten of pul-
lie school pupils are capable when they
leave school Of correctly writing Il letter.
He concludes that one reason is the re-

the art Of composition is not taught carly
