medal or purse, is vulgar and
sordid inducement to study,and con-
victs the school that resorts to it of
ineficiency IN rslegitimate and most
essential work. 1t is. moreover, an
injurious agency in education, as il
is constantly used to stimulate stu
dents in false directions, and to the
excessive cultivation of unimportant
subjects Our education is in a
state of chaos in regard to the rela-
tive values of different kinds OF
knowledge. The waste of time and
effort over comparatively worthless
studies is something quite appalling
and It is everywhere aggravated by
plylI g scholars with premiums for
special aftainments. Rich block
heads, with narrow notions and
tenacious crotchets, smitten with
the vanity of becoming public bene
factors, go into the schools and
found prizes and medals which set
the students TO racing in any dlrec-
ton whichsthe whim or caprice of
the doner may dictate. This evil is
confessed, and has become so glar-
ing that some institutions have wise
ly put a stop to such interference.
But, as it is driven from the schools,
it is taken up by outsiders, as we
have seen in the intercollegiate con-
tests that have lately come into
vogue. Against this whole system
the Philadelphia policy, as present
ed in MI. Beckwith's report. is a
tacit but powerful protest. To get
things upon their real merits is a
victory anywhere do this upon
great, unprecedented national oc-
casion is trium ph-but there is
no reason for adopting the principle
in an exhibition Of the products of
manufacture that will not apply with
increasing force to the management
of educational establishments.

above the sound Of cracking timbers

prolonged to the echo only to be
repeated again, attracted the atten-
ton Of the devotees, and the pale
faced girl was seen hurrying through
the flames with the terrified child
