COMMUNICATION.

A Large Question Boldly Tackled.
To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
AS represent taxpayer 1 would like
to know the reason, and maoy more would
like to know, why Yale is excused from
paying taxes to the city. They certainly
have no right to be excused from paying
taxes. They should pay taxes same as
other taxpayers, Yale university is very
wealthy and a private institution. You
can't enter Yale like you can or public
schools. 1t costs money to 60 there.
They why don't they pay tsxe.i If 1
should start q large private school with
600 scholars or more I would have to pay
taxes to the city. 1t is ridiculous to think
of 1t. I do not want Yale university to
pay taxes because they do not or because
they are wealthy. What is fair for one
should be fair for the others. Their wealth
Is over, know 1t to be over 81 200, 600.
Only as 1 said before, 1t is doing injustice
to our taxpayers. Not collecting taxes
from Yale It is loss to New Haven of
about $175, 200 per year. Yale bought
land on Elm street, near Church street,
a year ago and they do not pay taxes on it.
In fact, to say the least, If they bought all
the land on Chapel and Church streets
they, no doubt, would not be obliged to
pay taxes on 1t. If any property owner Ii
excused from paying taxes it should be the
manufacturers like Winchester's. rubber
shop, Sargent's, in fact, all shops. They
help build up a city. They pay more
money out to be circulated In New Haven
in one day than Yale would In twelve
years. Over 1000, 900 is paid out In
wages a year from our manufacturers
From Yale not over 81 ,0Oo, 600.

raised In this country lie used In 90 many
different and remarkable ways The Chi
nese say that the cocoanut palm has a
many useful properties as there are days
In the years. The goober is not so uni
vsrsal as that; but IL has as many valuA-
bic qualities as there are days In the week.
The solid part of the nut is peculiarly nu-
tritive, and supplies fruit and food for
many family. The vines make fne fod-
der, some say as good as clover hay, while
hogs fstten on what is left In the fields Af-
ter the crop has been gathered.
Ii you grind the nut you get q sweet
quality of -four, with which the housewife
makes delicious biscuit. If you squeeze
1t you obtain q valuable oil, resembling
olive oil, and used for similar purposes.
This oil also enters largely into the manu-
facture of the better grade of sosps. The
Kernels are roasted for coffee. The roasted
Kernels are also used in the manufacture
OF some kinds of Chocolate. The coafeo-
tioner helps to ruin our digestion In boy
hoca days with peanut candy; the Georgia
COOK alone knows how TO make rich pas
Try OF pounded peanuts. The artist, with
paint brush, silks and satlns, creates novel
and beautiful peanut ornaments; SO that
peanut dolls and other curios nav now be
seen in the chop windows Of New York,
especially around the holidays. These are
ssme of the ways in which the leguminous
nut Is useful to us
The goober Ia grown more or less In all
of the southern states. The bulk of our
supply comes from Virginia, North Caro-
lima and Georgia. Down south these edi-
Bile nuts are called "goobsrs" or ''pindars." ="
They are not known as peanuts; and the
farmers would probably think that you
meant something else IL yen called them

increasing and good prices are obtained,
more growers are going into the business
every year. Few crops are easier TO raise
than the goobe.. 1t is q hardy, prolific
plant, and requires no more care and at
tention than q crop of potatoes.

SUuto the HflIs,o

o restless heart, 50 full Of cares,
Yet longing SO for better things,
Impatient even In thy prayers,
And vexed at trifling happenings.
Receive the strength that calms and stills
Lift up thine eyes unto the hills"
They stand in silent majesty,
Clothed with the mornings pearl and rose,
Then soft white clouds about them lie,
And purple lights no valley knows;
Now by the sunshine they are kissed,
Now wrapped from sight in wells OF mist.
Through summer heat, through winter SHOWS
Strong and immovable they stand;
The wild storm wind about them blows,
By gentle breezes they are fanned,
Thousand shifting shadows fall
Upon them; they remain through all.
Then, restless heart, take courage new,
Think OF the things which shall abide,
The strength, uuchangeable and true,
With which Gods own are satisfied
Thank Him whose love his whols world fills,
And lift thine eyes "uuto the hills"

coils In spite of sparseness, and by waving
the hair from the roots to well out into
the length the thinness Is not noticeable.
A little care In the arrangement of the
bang will keep thinness at the temples
from showing, or the hair can be parted
and oombed loose just little at the tenn

1SL AoANDAs
When heathen first have the privileges
of reading Zion's Herald or the Congrega-
tionalist we suppose they are impressed
very much as readers of the Moslem World
in this country will be. The Moslem World
Is the organ of Mohammed Alexander Rus
sell Webb and his associates, who have un-
dertaken the somewhat Encouraging task
of converting the people of this country
to "the only true faith" The Moslem
World claims everything, of course, and
its claim is supported with good deal OF
ability, although we are not sure that there
is good ground for the following "Thomas
Jefferson would probably have been a
AussulmAn If he had known the truth
concerning Mohammed and his teachings.
He once wrote to John Quincy
Adams: Say nothing of my religion;
1t is known to my God and myself alone
He was considered Unitarian. The same
may be said of Andrew Jackson, Abraham
Lincoln, General Grant and some other
great Americans. There was in their
nature that profound reverence for God,
and that earnest, genuine love for their
fellow-men, which are the pre.eminent
characteristics of the true Mussulmsn.
We believe that some or all of these wor-
thies have also been claimed in the same
way by the advocates of other religions,
and perhaps one claim is as good as
another.
The salutatory of the Moslem World
begins "In the narae of the most mereiful
God," and Brother Webb says: I am very
confident that all that is necessary to in
duce the man who is reasonably we'll
balanced mentally to adopt the Islamic
system as his guide in life, is to under
stand the basic principles of that system,
and to comprehend the life and character
of Its founder. To gain this end he must
have access to historical records and stan
dard doctrinal works, which have, hereto
fore, never been available to the
presented, from time to time, in
the columns of this journal. He
should also be brought into communi-
ton with the intelligent and profoundly
learned Mussulmans of the East, who will
use the Moslem World as medium
through which to present their knowledge
and opinions to those who desire to learn
more of the Prophet and his teachings than
can be acquired from the works of
prejudiced and ignorant writers published
in English.
Welcome to the Moslem World. 1t is
evidently going to be bright and interest
ing paper. And it may do some good.
There are many people in this country who
could do worse than to become good
Mohammedans. They are already polyg

BOYS, PARENTS AND TEACHERS.

BOYS, PARENTS AND TEACHEhS.
There is q man In Philadelphia who de-
serves what is called a" testimonial" from
the school teachers of the country. He is
the aggravated father of a pastifsrous boy,
who lives to do mischief and to be as
troublesome as he can be. 1t was thought
necessary to send this boy to school Ia the
hope that his mind and his manners would
thereby be improved. Bat of course the
boy has been hostile to the scheme, and
the progress toward the desired end has
been slow. He studied the situation, and
finding that school teachers in Philadelphia
are not allowed to lick" even such boys
as he is he took full advantage of his op
portunities. He has been a terror
to his teacher, who has done her
best to "rule him by love-" when
what he really needed was ruling by q
ruler or a strap, or something of that
kind. The teacher stood 1t as long as she
could, and then complained to the boys
father. He said he would see about 1t,
and he did. Choosing time when he
knew his boy was full of "cussedness" he
followed him to school one day and caught
him In the very act of "sassing" his dear
teacher. And then and there. with force
aud arms, he took the said boy, and before
the outraged teacher and the wondering
yet appreciative scholars, he gave that boy
as satisfying and as merited thrashing as
a boy ever had.
A good many teachers who are not al
lowed to infics corporeal punishment, and
who even say Tin public) that such punish
ment should never be inflicted, will keenly
appreciate this wise and helpful and sensi-
BILE mans act. Almost every 'lady" teacher
in New Haven has some boy in her class
who is the idol of his parents. They can't
see any fault in him. He may be the veri-
est little imp that walks. He may be q
torment to the teacher and q general pest.
If the teacher complains to the parents she
is blamed for not being sufficiently appreci-
ative of the peculiar nature and disposition
of the boy, which is only understood at
home, and which, according to the home
notion, gives him license to be as mean
ss he wants to be. If the teacher
| persists in not sppreciating the boy
complaint against her may bs made
to the Board of Education, and if the
parents of the boy have a "pul" the
| teacher finds out that 1t isn't wise to COM
plain about boy who is thus favored.
But what relief 1t would be to her If heI
complaint were received as the complaint
of the Philadelphia teacher was. And
what good thing it would be for the boy
and for the school.
1t doesn't hurt a pestiferous boy to give
him good whipping when he needs 1t. II
teaches him that he has limitations and
that others have rights which he must Learn
to respect. And we think the outcry
against oorporeal punishment in schools
has been carried too far. Not many year.
ago there was a sensible custom in one New
England family that the writer know
about. If q member of that family was
whipped at school he was whipped at hom'
for being whipped at school. Thus WA
justice done and the boys taught to MIND
their "p's and q's" and respect those set t.
rule over them.
