of land for public parks, as places OF
public recreation, rest and enjoyment,
has come to be regarded as a necessity
rather than a mere convenience. They
conduce to the public health, promote
the general happiness and encourage
citizenship. As public investments
they are remunerative and profitable.
Experience has proved that the in
creased valuations In the vicinity OF a
well-regulated park will soon more than
pay the cost of the original Investment
Now is the time for Scranton to pre-
pare for the future and secure other
park sites. The park commissioners
should be allowed at least a sufficient
amount of money to make a more cred
liable showing in Nay Aug park to
this growing city's credit. Governor
Werts, who has given this subject
careful study. would extend the pow
ers Of such commission even further:
to quote again from his message: Pro
visions should also be made that the
commissioners may sell or exchange
any lands by them purchased or ac-
quired, If ii be found more advantage
Gus IL sell or exchange the same, i'm
posing such restrictions and limitations
upon the land sold VI exchanged as they
may deem tit and proper.
HAVE GOOD PARK LAWS.
This, with other good park provi-
sions, has been passed by the lesisla-
ture of New Jersey, and now they have
good park laws and under the influence
OF these laws Essex county, New Jer-
sey is making some grand improve
ments.
".All vi the sites needed for park pur-
poses should be secured by the park
commissioners under direction of the
councils before the onward march Of
settlement drives nature further and
further away. for the keen eye Of the
real estate speculator is every year
making land more difficult and eXpen-
sve for park purposes

Britain and Ireland still lead in turning
out ships, both steam and sailing
The United States turned out tonnage
of S4,S77, or not far from the amount
launched by Germany. We are still class
ed among the three great ship building
powers of the world, for no other nation
foated over 40, 600 tons.
Though the British yards floated ESQ.,
967 tons, the time is coming when we
shall take first rank The States border
ing on our great inland seas are rich in
lumber iron and nearly all that enters
into the construction of ships. Their
commerce is only in its infancy, and when
the great lakes are connected with the
Atlantic by ship canals, we shall float a
fleet of home made ships that will rival
the rest of the world
There are no signs that railroads are to
seriously dwarf the worlds water com

DIR. G. Stanley Hall, in discussing The
Case of the Public Schools in the Allan
tic Monthly, pays this tribute to female
teachers:
Mr.. Hewes has shown that the average
salary of the American teacher, counting
fifty-two weeks to the year, is IS. 81 per
week for such male teachers as remain in
the ranks, and "a. 81 for female teachers.
LAS partial index of the disposition of
our population to our public school sys-
TEN" this is not reassuring. The highest
average salary, according to the Report
OF the Commissioner of Education, is
81, 1S1 per year in Massachusetts, and the
lowest $2l3 per year in North Carolina.
The average pay of teachers in our pub
lie schools furnishes them with the sum
ef IS week for all their expenses In
1885 salaries were higher than they are
now, but in 1889 the average salaries of
American teachers were lower, SO that,
on the whole: we are just now improving
The 500, 600, 600 spent in this country for
teachers in the public schools every year
must be divided among 1868, 900 teachers,
, more than twice as many as in any other
country of the world.
Although these figures take no account
OF the fact that many rural teachers are
IA q
the year, they are appalling enough. And
the reason for the displacement of male
by female teachers, until in many parts of
the country the former seem doomed to
extinction, is apparent. A present, the
American school system as a whole owes
| Its high quality in no small measure to the
noble character, enthusiasm, and devotion
OF women who make teaching not only a
means OF livelihood, Tut in addition
thereto mission service of love for their
| work and for children. To increase this
love is to increase the best part of their
service and to diminish it is to degrade it
to mere drudgery and routine As the
culture of women gradually rises, it be-
comes more and more evident how unjust
have been the determinations against
them in this field, where in higher grades
OF school work their services are becom-
ing no less valuable than mems.
