Newspapers I'm Public Schools.
From the PHILADELPHIA Inquirer

Hi"hi tue AuiAduclpuiu inquirer.
Another effort to make the reading of
daily newspapers in the public schools of
Ptttsburg part of the regular exercises
will soon be made because Of its success in
Kansas City.
Fifteen years ago Superintendent Luckey
of the Pittsburg schools recommended such
course, but the opposition voted 1t down.
In Kansas City Superintendent Greenwood
was allowed to adopt 1t, and his report is
now made public. He finds the policy val
liable for several reasons. The pupils be-
come well-informed at an early age upon
current topics; their vocabularies are
greatly increased. and their ability to put
their thoughts into words Is perceptibly
developed. The argument is now advanced
that whaA ha3 proved Of such advantage
in Kansas City would prove equally so
elsewhere.
This, we believe, cannot reasonably be
gatnsaid. It Is only In a general way that
what is done in Pittsburg interests the
friends of education In other cities; yet It
must still be hoped that the proposition
Will be adopted, only to rebuke those
who would cast disrepute upon that great
moral force-the American newspaper.

'MADE IN THE UNITED STATES. >,
The Mark That is Now Seen on Our
Goods in EurODe


From the Chicago Times Herald.
1t appears that Germany is not the on1v
bette notr of industrial Great Britain. though
1t is doubtless the chief. The made in
Germany cry is now supplemented by an
other-"made in the United States" In
other words, American manufacturers are
invading English home and colonial mark
cts. The first discovery of American su-
premacy was in connection with American
iron and steel. But little inquiry was need
ed to convince the English technical or
gans that America can manufacture steel
and iron at the lowest cost. and that COM
petition with her is a matter of extreme
difficulty. But now it is seen that England
is at considerable disadvantage in other
fields of production as well.
Thus in a recent blue book ON the consli-
ton of colonial trade it is shown that
United States goods have displaced those of
English manufacture in the West Indies
The causes of this displacement are frank
ly stated to be the following: More atten-
ton to local requirements; superior finish
lower price; more careful packing and the
emission to make special charges therefor:
cheaper freight; and, finally, more rapid
communication. Not all these factors, it
is obvious, enter into an explanation of
American conquest of other markets, but
enough OF them do SO enter to render it
easy to answer the much-debated question

A Story of Robert E. Lee.


AS Lees army marched through the town
of Chambersburg patriotic young north
ern girl was seen waving a federal flag
from a window overlooking the narrow
highway along which the columns passed.
The men Of the south were taking this
demonstration much amiss. calling Take
in the gridiron!'' when General Lee rode
up. Compromising the situation at a
glance, he smiled. and raising his hat sa-
luted the stars and stripes, under which he
had served for thirty-two years. All
honor to the old fag!" he exclaimed. There
was moments pause. and some one told
the young lady who had addressed her
Her arm fell motionless. and the flag lay
limp across the window sill. Again Cen
eral Lee spoke reassuringly, saying, Let
it wave, daughter, wave 1t on! No one
shall disturb you" But the demonstration
was not recommended; heart and will had
been conquered by the native nobleness that
war could not change nor the authority of
command render rude.
