GERMAN SCHOOLBOYS
They Have Much Studious Work and No
Rest Play.

Year after year the gymnasla. high
schools and universities OF Germany
send out into the world, there to look
for living. multitudes of overweight
youths. teemino with instruction which
has untitled them for bread earning
by the practice of any purely mechan-
zeal craft or petty trade, says the Lon
don TelcQraph, and this has imbued
them with many of the tastes and
sympathies that can only be product
i've of happiness, or even enjoyment,
to those who are enabled TO take their
stand and maintain it in one OF the
upper social spheres.
These Youths have been put through
the mill" with severity of which the
British schoolboy and university man"
have not even an approximate notion.
Nothing is less like the school life of
England than that of Germany. In
the first place, it is entirely devoid of
the element of play. Games, such as
those which constitute an important
feature of our educational curriculum
and are specifically associative in char
acter. are unknown to the boys who
attend German gymnasia and reals
chulen. All these establishments are
in the nature of day schools.
They do not take in boarders; no
leisure moment of the scholars life is
spent within their precincts; conse-
quentlv no Fairgrounds are attached
to them, and they are exclusively utll-
lied for study.
There is no such thing as cricket or
football, rowing, or paper chasing at Z
German school; nor, were those OF
any other opcn-air sports tolerated by
| the management of an educational in
stitution, would there be any time foI
| indulgence in them.
1t may be said of the average Ger
man schoolboy that during the seven
years or so which he passes in working
| his way up from "SeXta" to "Prima'
| his labors never cease save during
| meal times and sleeping hours, and
are only lightened to a certain extent
| by his annual summer vacation, which,
however, is aGuudantly frau@ht with
tasks calling for careful fultillment ere
he returns to the regular routine Of
school life.
The routine begins at a. M, and
lasts. with an interval for necessary
| refreShmGnl, unIii late nOul OF the
/ afternoon. Should the "gymnasiasr

distance from his school he is com

When he returns home at the ent
of school hours he carries with him +;
quantity of work the adequate prepa

teachers next morning will occupy
him until 10 y. m. if he is a quick stu

he is slow one.

Now that the strike is quelled by means
of United States troops, there should be
construction put upon some statute
which has color OF pertinence, whereby
the troops could be turned upon the
Coxey armies and rid us of the menace of
their example, The results of strike
are temporary, except IN SO far as they
call attention sharply to matters which
demand remedy. The industrial armies
ara demoralzing in their influence, are
aggregations of tramps and thieves and
an encouragement to Incidence and law
lessness.
The writer was informed recently by a
gentleman from Portland Oregon, that
when the waters which inundated that
city had receded and the business of
cleaning up was in progress, an indus
trial army was campeC in the ueighbor-
hood. There was great demand for la
Dor and members of the army were offer
ed one dollar an hour TO help IN pump
ing water out of cellars and doing other
work made necessary by the flood; but
all refused the offer.
The right to assemble is being grossly
abused 10y these aggregations of criminal
vagabonds. People who give them any
assistance are discouraging honest labor.
Some means should be taken to rid the
country of these armies.

der was engaged in the shoemaker trade
here but leaving Mishicott went to Wan
sau where he has done a thriving business
since. His old Mshicott friends all ac
corded him hearty welcome.
1t is rumored that Mishicott will have
a candidate for county Office this fall.
The party we have reference to is man
of integrity and intelligence and capable
of performing all the duties connected
with the Office he is reported as seeking.
He will have the solid support of our
delegation to the democratic convention
and this may be considered as including
every delegation from this portion Of the
county.
The remarks of Grover" in the preced-
ing issue of The Pilot in regard to chill
dren attending and participating ia pub
lie dances, cannot be too highly commend
ed. And this suggests another matter to
our mind which deserves attention. The
practice of some of our young boys of
bathing Ia full view and close pro ximlty
to our main street without bathing suits
should be stopped. If a proper amount
OF common modesty has not yet been it
stllled IN the manners of these youths by
the proper authority, our constables
should perform the duty which all must
agree is clearly theirs under the GiTcnm-
stances.

THE strike is now p ractically over, al
though Debs keeps insisting that it Is
sill on. There are troubles IN California
yet, but it is evident that the strike is
dying there too. It has been very I'M
fortunate strike for labor ard is the first
which was strongly condemned by pub
lie sentiment. There was no justiiea-
ton for it as the men stated no grievance
and made no demands. The rioting tend
ed to ALLEVIATE sympathy, if indeed there
could be any for such an uncalled for
movement. It puts an end to the A. L.
I. and it is fortunate that it does. Labor
unions are capable of doing considerable
good, but such union as the A. +. I. is
of benefit only to the vicious.
