Additional Volunteers for the Soldiers
Monument Fond.
A grand start has been made upon the
HERALD's suggestion that soldiers mon
ument be erected. Although the project is
but little more than two days old over one
hundred dollars have been pledged to the
undertaking.
There is now no reason why the move
ment should not be success, and grand
success. The idea has struck a popular
chord and none have yet been met who
have attempted to advance any argument
against it.
On he question Of location, it seems to
he the opinion Of every one that the monu-
ment should be placed in town, either in
the centre Of the square at the corner q
Main and Centre streets, at the north end
of Main street, or some other suitable
place as near as possible to the center o.
the town.
The HERALD to-day publishes eigh
contributions in addition to the list pub,
lished yesterday and the total runs ovel
one hundred dollars. j. J. Franey hai
pledged $50 with promise OF an increase
in due time and John Grant has increased
his contribution from 81 to IS.

the best school system in the world.
There is not country in the North of
Europe which has not a better system.
The immigrants who come to our shores
from abroad will be found to have far
better school training in what are de-
nominated the common branches than
the average of the rural population of
this country. In democratic schools we

our school children between eight and
twelve years old are better, brighter,
often know more and learn with greater
facility, than the German children of the
same age, whose school system is the best
in Europe. Even in music our boys are
away ahead of the foreigners. The pu.
pills in Europe are given the merest idea
of arithmetic and such branches, while
they are filled with knowledge of tho
ancient languages. Other critics have
also dissented decidedly from President
Eliots position.
The views Of the President of Harvard
University may be somewhat radical,
and they may have been stated in rather
plain hammered language. But it will
not do to dismiss them too curtly. 1t is
probable that they have more foundation
in fact than many people suspect. The
American public school system has been
lauded to the skies. 1t has been de-
scribed as the foundation stone and the
chief glory of the republic. A genera
tion ago 1t probably deserved all that
was said Of it. 1t was then far ahead
Of any European school system, with
the possible exception Of the German.
But within the past thirty years 1t is a
question whether the public school sys-
tenn of this country has kept step with
the advance Of the people in other re.
spects. Press.

: Suddenly there came q crash; there
was heavy fall of plastering, and for
minute Severn thought that the old
house was about to give way. To have
its walls fall upon him he knew would
be almost certain death, but with a
thrill Of melancholy pleasure he hoped
for a moment that it might happen.
The old building creaksd and strained,
but there came lull in the storm, and
it finally settled back to its normal con-
dition.
Severn lighted the lamp to see if his
books had been damaged and to investi-
gate the injury to the room. A large
patch of plastering had fallen from the
wall and lay scattered over the floor.
After the investigation he felt calmer
and went to bed for the night.
The next morning, contrary to his
usual neatness, he left the broom in its
corner and the room continued to pre-
sent very dilapidated appearance. In
the afternoon after returning from class
he seated himself in his chair and gazed
listlessly at the heap Of rubbish on the
floor. STOPPING forward he took up a
bit of broken plastering and slowly
picked it to pieces, thinking Of Mary

brighten.
