OMAHA is justly proud of her pub
lie schools. There is, however, much
room for improvement. The high
school commencement, like the sky
rocket display Thursday night in
honor of Hancock and English, was a
snowy demonstration. These COM
mencement exhibitions gotten up
merely for dramatic effect, charm the
eye and ear but fail to exhibit what
the friends Of popular education most
desire to see-the practical test of the
scholarship in the branches that will
make intelligent, self-su'ta;ning men
and women of our girls and boys.
REGULATIONS and essays by a few "grad-
ultes," carefully and deliberately pre-
pared for the occasion, do not enlight-
en- us as to the fund of useful knowl-
edge acquired in our schools. The
most flashy essayist very frequently
may be a Ounce in the very studies
that are most essential. The gradua-
ting class 1880, is perhaps, as prof
cient in the branches of instruction
taught in our high school as any other
class could be with the facilities for
culture, but the trouble is that our
high schools managed on an econom-
ical plan in tho number Of teachers,
that must seriously cripple its efficien-
cy. What can be expected of a high
school with only two teachers, aud

Our board Of education has been

sluanderc7 in experimental high
school teaching on a live, energetic,
efficient superintendent under whcss
supervision common schools would i'm
prove and become equal to the wants
Of the mass. We say this in no dig

SANTA CLAUS FOUND.

Greatest Discovery Of the Age.
WONDERFUL d scoveriesi the world have been made
Among other things where Santa Claus stayed,
Children oft ask If he makes goods or not,
II really he lives in Q mountain Of snow.
Last year an excursion sailed clear to the Pole
And suddenly dropped into what seemed)fke Ehole
Where wonder Of wonders they found . nowland,
While fairy-like beings appeared on Zach hand.
There were mountains like oufs, with moro
beautiful green,
And far brighter skies than ever were seen,
Birds with the hues of . rainbow were found,
While flowers OF exquisite fragrance were grow
ing around.
Not long were they left to wonder In doubt,
A being soon came theJ had heard much about,
Twas Santa Claus self and tn isthey all ny,
he locked like the plcturev tsee every day.
He drove up a team that looked very queer,
Twas q team Of grssshoppers instead Of reindeer,
he rode in . shell instead Of a sleigh,
But he took them on board and drove them
away.
Ho showed them all over his wonderful realm,
And factories making goods for women and men,
Furriers were working on hats great and small,
To Bunce's thew said they were sending them M.
Kris Kingle, the Glove Maker, told them At once,
All our Gloves we are sending to Bunce,
Santa showed them suspenders and many things
mere.
Saving I alse took these to friend Bunce's store.
Sa nta Claus then whispered . secret he'd tell,
As in OTaha every one knew Bunce well,
He therefore should send his goods to his care,
Knowing his friends will get their full share.
