Superintendent Harlan says, in refer
enee to the number of children reported
az the N meetiug of the Board of Educa'
tion Monday night as attending the Will
mington public schools, whose parents
and guardians reside outside the city
limits, that there ARE many of them
entitled To seals. One for instance he
mentioned was the cage Of a little girl,
whose father lived in the country and
was go en feebled bv disease that he
could not keep and educate his daughter
In the country as she should be. She
now lives in :he city with relative,
where she ia TO remain until she reaches
her majority. Bnquestionably she has
a right TO go to the Wilmington public
schools, aud Mr Harlan said be had 10
doubt one half the number reported
Monday night were similarly situated
There are quite a numb ber who undoubt-
edly have no right to come to school in

nothing like the number that the report

inefficient WORN.

The strained effort TO do too much is
one cause of the large amount of slip
shod, inetficien work that ali deplore,
vet accept. No one can give of his best
until he has learned what to lay aside as
well as what to do. Others fail to give
their best by attempting 10 do what is
beyond them. They might have
succeeded we'll, and done the world
good service in one direction, but
scorning this they are doing poor work,
which neither benefits Others nor re-
f,eots honor upon themselves, in some
other line. Thus a frst-rate builder
who is needed in the community is sac.
riticet, to make a third-rate architect,
who is omparatively valuelesss. Men
who might have made their mark as
mechanics become inferior business
men, or others who have talent for
com merciai pursuits spoil their value
| by rushing into professions or politics.
