The Manitowoc pilot. [volume] (Manitowoc, Wis.) 1859-1932, 1896-01-23

The Sentinel, IL seems. has discovered
| that the university does not officially die
| tate the courses of stud for high schools,
aud therefore it argues that the criticism
| OF the Pilot is untounded, However, in
educational circles it is long known that
| the unofficial pressure or persuasion
| which Is exerted by the university has
| had a tendency to transform the high
| schools into preparatory institutions
| facing not life but the University. Nor
has this influence been wholly indirect.
| 1t is an open secret that whenever the
| course Of study is revised by the state
/ department of education, several pre-
| fessors of the university are called IN for
assistance If now these professors mani
| pulate the course in the interest Of tier
| institution, as they invariably do, they
are hardly to be blamed, but the fact
| nevertheless remains that, with each re-
| vision OF tue state course. the University
| strengthens it's hold on all the high
schools in the state, Only those high
schools which are not Free High Schools.
and there are only half dozen in the
state, are at liberty 10 revise their own
courses Of study.
Thus seemingly harmless suggestive
| recommendation" by the board Of Uni
| versity visitors is vested with some au-
thority when it is introduced into the
regular course of study Issued by the
state department Of education. On page
ninety of the manual of 1894 will be found
the following: We Othe committed
! regret that our Secondary schools do not
meet the reasonable demands of the Uni
versity as regards English, Greek, Latin,
German and French, nor does your COM
mittee undervalue Anglo-SaXon." OF
course scch suggestions are not inspired
| by the University. The high schools are
| only too anxious TO teach every language
| under the sun, even though English suf-
| fer a little in consequence.
High schools are finishing schools, not
| preparatory institutions. The high school
| ID simply du OuISTOWtH o. the COluuOu
| school, and as such must devote It's ener-
gles to give such training as will best fit
boys and girls TO meet the demands of
practical life. If this training is insult
| ticient for entrance 10 the university,
let the small college, the only proper
| preparatory school, be revived. But let
us not in our inordlnate desire to create
one continuous line from the district
school to the university lose sight of the
| fact that education is for present needs
not future possibilities.
The Pilot again asserts that 1t is no
| enemy Of the University, that its crlti-
cisms are offered in good faith, and that
| the university will rue its interference
with high school courses of study. Time
will show that the Pilot IS a better friend
of the University.than any of its partisan
supporters of the present time.

It's been rather chilly of late
And homage we pay, just at present,
you know,
To maidens who know how to skate.
Away with the girl who would initiate
man
The seasons not suited to her
And now we want girls of a different

For who would make boomers of

The bicycle girl was all right for a
while
But now she il ute out of date;
The bicycle face is eclipsed by the
smile
OF maidens who know how to skate.
oh, here's to the girl whom in winter
we prize;
Whose cheeks arc as red as the rose,
Who captivates all with her bright.
sparkling eyes
AS gracefully gliding she goes.
Oh, here's to the girl who in winter
holds sway.
Who havoc in hearts will create,
Who dresses today in a womanly way
The maiden who knows how to skate.

CRESCENT CITY RACES.
Long DeIays-POor Stnrtfng-Atmcst
an Accident-War of Words.

NEW ORLEANS, LA, February TO-
Starter Fftzgerald's work to-day was very
bad The chief features of the days sport
were long delays and miserable starts.
The fifth race nearly resulted In an
accident as Bessie Stebbins, very bad
actor, was going the wrong way OF the
track, and, In whirling around. ran into
several horses, knocking them out OF the
race
Little Billie was left standing in the
first. Jim Hogg was virtually left in the
handicap, and the two starts were simply
awful. Sauturne and Piccaroon were the
only favorites, and both were lucky IN
getting away in front. Balk Line, at 8
TO 1; Boro at 5. Billy Kinney at 8, and
Vida at 5, took the other races.
The last race was full of hot tips, Bob
Wagner being backed from to 4, Rain
maker from TO to 5. and Oak Forest
from 100 to Is. The latter was evidently
out for a killing The first race resulted
In a head finish between the first four
horses. Terrapin, who was placed fourth,
looked from the stand to have won.
c. S. Bush, general manager of the
track, and L. J. Powers, correspondent of
the New York Mercury, had hot words in
