TIE TYPEwRITER IN Pobhi0
SCHOOLS.

T. :. ~. TINA asks the Boston He'
aid. that the typewriter was ao'ni'''I
into the public schools? Our Gun '1n'
porary sees many advantages 'n| ~
would result from it's Introduction
has made its way everywhere else anu
il has come to stay. Hundreds Oh
those who are trained in the puOi''
schools are to earn their living by using
! il and no machine has ever been IN
vented that makes the same unique ue-
mands upon the intelligence, the cuitule
and the general education OF the per-
son who runs it. 1t is better than any
examination, the Herald thinks, In
revealing the defects in the education OF
young people. 1t requires everything
in the way OF education but the higher
order of brains to run the typewriter sue
ceSsfully, and nothing has done more 10
reveal the shortcomings OF the public
school than the way in which this
machine discloses bad spelling, bad
punctuation and bad English. II may
be safely said, according to the
Herald, that not more than one
typist in twenty is thoroughly COM
petent TO fill first class position in a
business or newspaper Office. With
such q demand for good work, and
with machine in hand that brings
education to such sharp test, there is
much reason for introducing the type
writer into the public school, and max
ing it part of the education. Says the
Herald:
Many things could be taught by its
steady use better than they can be taught
in any other way. If a simple method OF
shorthand writing could be introduced in
to the schools in connection with the edu-
cation in the use of the typewriter, an i'm
mense advance could easily be made in the
of hundreds of young people
Tor their work in life. Much time would
also be saved TO the teachers, and those
who looked forward to an extended educa-
ton would oe in possession of facilities for
quick and accurate work which are now
beyond their reach.
All this is not to be disputed, but
there are many things that would pre-
vent the general introduction OF the
typewriter into our public school sys-
ten, not the least of which would be
The expense. The typewriter is an ex-
DenSive machine and thousands Of them
would be necessary. 1t is not to be
that children would take the
are of them that is necessary to
Keep them in order, and they
would be never ending source
4 expense. 1t would be out of the +,
question to ask parents to buy the ma
hines. The average family could not
ford it. The typewriter would be a
lost valuable adjunct to the parapher-
ALA of the public school, but it is ex-
remedy doubtful if it will be very soon
dopted.

CORN IN EUROPE.

The announcement is made that our
consulS abroad will make another effort
TO introduce American corn in Europe
as an article Of diet.
1t is somewhat singular that this has
not been successfully done long ago. We
are able to supply the poorer classes OF
Europe with asubstantial article of food
much cheaper than the rye and wheat
which they have been buying and eating
for thousands Of years. The European
prejudice against corn will have TO yield
to better knowledge Of the virtues OF
that article Of food. Uuder the circum-
stances, the action Of our conSuls in at
tempting to popularize Indian corn
abroad deserves the highest commenda-
ton. With few experiments publicly
conducted the people Of Europe will be
willing to accept American corn as a
satisfactory substitute for both rye and
wheat.
1t is true that the experiment has
been tried before, but that is no reason
why it should not be tested again under
more favorable conditions. II we show
the people across the water what can bC
done with Indian corn, with our variou:
methods of cooking, it goes without say
ing that they will give up their preju
dices and and accept the American sta
pie. II they refuse, after satisfactor!
test, to accept it. they will show that the!
are too unreasonable to be considered ii
the premises.
In the course of the next two or thre
years it is quite likely that American
corn will be IS popular an article Of die
IN Europe ash 10 In this country.

BANKS AND RANk.EXAMINERs.

The Maverick bank failure again
brings TO the front question that great
" needs serious consideration.
In this country, under existing laws,
II ia supposed that the banks are ex-
smined from time to time. Recent de-
yelopments would suggest that this Is
big mistake. We have found in the
case of the Keystone and Spring Garden
banks. in Philadelphia, and the MAYER
tck hank in Boston, that the Govern
ment's bank examiners simply do not
examine.
An alleged examination, consisting OF
a big dinner and few drinks, is no pro-
lection for the public, but we seem to be
drifting in that direction.
In old times it could not have hap
pened. OF course, it is now said
. that those were Semi-civilized
times, but one thing is certain
no man holding the money of others in
the days when the fathers of the pres
ent generation were young, could ap-
propriate it, and afterwards hold up his
head.
II we can do no better-if bank ex'
aminers will not examine-we had bet
ter go back to the good old shotgun
DAYS. Our methods then may have beer
halfway savage, but men behaved
themselves, and such financial rascality
as has Of late years disgraced our civil
ization was almost unknown.
