He Thought it Would Do


81 want divorce from my wife," said
a Washington street broker to his at
torney, "but l don't know how to be-
gin it,"
''Any ground for scandal?' asked the
attorney.
"No; oh, no."
"Did she ever hit yOuW
'No; her temper is quite even."
"Did she ever blow out the gas?"
"NO-she let's it burn. Maybe tina I
would be grounds, ehY
"No," said the attorney. 'In that case
she would call to her aid the gas company,
and we would have to struggle with a
monopoly. That wouldn't dO.'
"No," said the applicant, sadly.
''Did she ever scald any of the chill
dren" asked the attorney, Frightening
up.
Haven't got any to scald. l suppose
it wouldn't do to say she scalded the chill
dren of the next door neighbour"
"No."
''Then don't know what to do or say"
EThen both men looked thOughtfully
out of the window for nearly seven min
utes.
''She drank out of the finger bowl at the
hotel when we was on eur bridal tsur,'
said the husband, hesitatingly.
eff you get the date and witnesses,
said the lawyer, quickly. 81 think that
will be sufficient-under our law"
Then they went out together and called
for two schooners of beer.

A Commendable Enterprise.

There seems to be much interest mani
tested Just now in every part of the South
in Industrial and technical educatlon'
Several industrial schools are IN opera
ton in our section, a. 49,
nrosnecte tkso one OF Two schOOie Vi '0O"-
noIoov will be established in the near
future.
4 late number Of the Engineering and
Vjafag Journal gives an account OF
novel and important apprenticeship sys-
tenn which Is about to be inaugurated by
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. 1t has
been determined 10y the management of
the road to establish at MOuntclare, Bal
timOre. in connection with the rail-
road shops, a school the object of which
is to combine technical education with
the practical training of apprentices
in such manner as not only to greatly
benefit the apprentices themselves, but to
provide the road in the future with a very
superior class of employees. A four years
course is provided for, and all the
expense is borne by the company, and, in
addition, the apprentices are to be paid
20 cents per day the first year, 50 cents
the second, 80 cents the third and 81 in
the fourth. In the second, or higher
course, the pupils are designated cadets,
and are to be paid 81 per day for the first
year, 81 1917 the second and 81 % the
third. The members of the third class are
designated cadet officers and are to be
paid 81 30 per day the first year, 81 10 the
the second and 81 the third.
In making appointments preference Is
to be given to the sons of employees.
Rigid examinations are to be provided
for, and competent men are engaged in
mapping out course of instruction for
each class or grade and in drafting rules
for discipline.
The determination to establish such a
system is one for which the managers ofthe
road can not be too highly commended.
When the school opens class of boys will
| beenabled to receive a technical education
while learning trades who could not pos
sibly obtain similar instruction else
where. Not only this, but those who &C.
| quit themselves with credit will be en-
abled to obtain situations at once either
/ on this road or others. The future ser.
| vice of the road cannot fail to be greatly
| improved by this system, and it cannot
| be doubted that other roads and large
manufacturing establishments will in
| augurate similar systems as soon as the
/ success and usefulness Of this one shall
be assured. The progress of this enter
| prise will be watched with interest.

Ex-Judge Munger, says a Washington
special, the New York lawyer who has
undertaken to work up boom for A. j.
VanderpOel, of New York, for Attorney
General in Mr.. Cleveland's Cabinet, is
wasting no time in his labOrs among Sem
ators and Representatives. 1t is said that
he has already succeeded in securing the
promise of support for Mr.. Vanderpoel
from a majority of the New York city
Congressman, and has other Representa-
tives from the State upon his list.
Judge Munger is also taking all the
advantage he can of the opposition
to Senator Garland for the AttOr-
ney Generalship, and Mr.. VanderpoePs
friends assert that he is meeting with
some success in his missionary labors
among the Southern men in Congress,
who regard Mr.. Garland as ga loose con-
structiOnist" of the constitution. Mr..
Vanderpoel is understood here as having
been brought forward for Cabinet posi-
ton by various members of the bar in
New York. Judge Munger, who is en-
thusiastic in his mission, claims to be
free from entanglements with any of the
Democratic factions in the metropolis.
He is, he says, a Cleveland Democrat,
and as such is seeking the Attorney Gen
eralship for MIR. VanderpOel.

COMPULSORY Education.

=
The subject of compulsory education is
receiving its periodical discussion. In
fact. the Legislatures OF several States
are considering the advisability of testing
the system. The usual array Of facts and
figures relating to illiteracy and crime is
being produced, and it is confidently as
serted that had the education Of children
been compulsory for the past fifty years
the country would have been saved hun
dreds Of millions of dollars which have
been expended IN attempting to enforce
our criminal laws, not to speak Of the
advantages, moral and material, that
would have sprung from the almost uni
versaI intelligence OF the people.
At least two States have compulsory
education laws-New Hampshire and
Michigan. In the former each parent or
guardian is required to send his child or
ward to school - weeks in each year. SIX
of which must be continuous, under PEN
atty of a fine of from $40 to 800. The
Michigan law is substantially the same.
In the former State the law has been
in operation for a considerable time,
and judging from the statistics of crime,
the results have been favorable, though
not as favorable, perhaps, as the friends
of the system could desire. In Michigan
the system has not been in operation long
enough for its effects to be very notice
able. In fact, the law in that State
does not seem 10 be very rigidly enforced,
There are, according to the last census,
over 100000 children in the United
large proportion of these, now growing
up in ignorance, are destined 10 be cleo
tors, whose influence on the future gov
eminent of the country will be very great.
How many thous sand may be enumerated
in the criminal classes of the future may
be easily estimated from the Obserya-
lions of the past. 1t is useless, how
ever. to undertake TO show the Importance
of education.
The question of the ACCESSIBILITY and
praCticability of compulsory education is
a mOmentous one. There is a vague
sentiment that a compulsory education
law would be an encrOachment on the
natural rights OF the citizen. This senti-
ment. however, should not overweight the
regard for the future welfare of many
millions Of people. The practicabIlity of
such a law is a local question. COmpUl-
sorry education must always be preceded
by thorough voluntary public school
system. Several States are now in a
condition to inaugurate and enforce the
compulsory system. Georgia will prOba-
bly, have to wait good many years be-
fore it will be practicable all over the
State.
The day is coming when it will be
considered no more the right of a
parent or guardian to withhold mental
pabulum from child than to denyit food
and clothing. There are some now living
who cannot see the right in taxing one
man to educate the children of another,
but this class will one day be extinct. 1t
may be a decade before thorough public
school system will be in operation in this
State, but in all probability it will not be
two decades before compulsory education
will be established and enforced not only
in Georgia but in every part Of the
country.
