MeIlknown Teacher Advoc ates The Decoration
OF Schools With Portraits.

New York, March 27.--Ross Turner,
artist and teacher in the Institute of
Technology at Boston, spoke yester-
day before the Public Education asso-
citation. No nation, he said, could com.
pare with US in the matter OF education.
Naturally we could not remain still. We
progress and advance and are in con-
dition to encourage art In America.
Our museums and art schools were good,
but we would have to bring our people
In closer relations with art and its pur-
poses than could be done by art schools
and museums.
In Salem. Medford. New Bedford
and other New England towns the walls
Of the schools were decorated, Mr..
Turner said, with pictures, etc. Works
OF art and photographs did more for the
pupils than books.
He thought that In every school there
should be Q bust or portrait Of some
Revolutionary hero. statesman or very
prominent man. In the Railways Of the
higher grades he believed there should
be portraits. These pictures seen by
children would impress them and teach
them much:
Mr.. Turner said more should be made
Of drawing. We lacked skill IN this
country. were clumsy, and dfd not know
how to use our hands. Drawing was the
first step for the cultivAtor OF the hands.
The work Of making beautiful things
ought to be cultivated. Facilities, he
said. should be increased for additional
work In the schools. We should build
up our own art through the rising gen
erations.
In conclusion. he said that art would
have to be brought in among the peo-
pie, No people were 80 we'll adapted to
bring out this spirit as the women OF
America, who had brains and money.

The name Greater New York has
come to stay, but the official name of
the city will be that of the old corpo-
ration, New York City, The charter
names for the several divisions will
wisely pereptuate the old names, as
Manhattan, Brooklyn, Bronx, etc.
This will be well as it will give the
city for all coming time a recognition
Of the localities that were historic at
an early day, and perpetuating them
under their original designations sim
piify the work Of the future historian
and geographer.

IT NIGHT BE so.

The City of San Antonio has been
between the devil and the deep seq
long enough. 1t is in order to make
a change. One administration is
famed for what it has done and an
| other for what it has failed to do. II
has been either a sin of omission OF
one of commission, and the city catch
es it either way. What is done costs
four times what it is worth. and what
is not done eXhausts the treasury and
there you are. No one seems able to
name the man who can bring in a
better order of things. When it does
come San Antonio will flourish like a
green bay tree. Under disabilities
that would have flooded almost any
other city in christendom she has gone
right along, multiplying trade, increas-
ing commerce, putting in manufac-
lures, adding millions to her real val
ueS, making railroad connections and
in every way making the city a more
desirable residence, save in the i'm
provement of her streets and such
other matters as legitimately fall
within the province of her city coun-
ell. All this indicates that with a
proper city management she will take
to herself greatly improved facilities
of internal transportation, at the same
time making outside connections
more desirable. She would under for
tunate conditions cheaper the cost of
her lighting and heating, take care
that her transit lines We're not run
to the detriment of the citizens, COM
pei some decent respect for the rights
of citizens by chartered companies,
institute a rigid inspection over all de-
partments of the municipal service,
arrange for prompt meeting of all
her bills for current expenses, cease
to prosecute where natural conditions
prevent a strict compliance with fool
ish state regulations, bring her SAM
tary conditions to high water mark,
so economic the funds of the city as
to leave a surplus for needed street
repairs and improvements. so eXpend
that surplus as to commend the cOun-
Gil to the confidence of the taxpayers
and thus make it easy to vote supplies
for permanent improvements. This
would be the natural result of prop
er administration of the affairs of
this city, and it can be brought about
in the way suggested in these columns
two days ago. To do it is one thing
and to know that it should be done is
another. The Light does not bank on
any public movement that will accom-
lish the desired end, for it requires
business sacrifices that the business
of this city does not incline to make.
The Light has lit its torch, turned its
rays on the conditions existing and
those that may be, and rests the ac-
ton of the future where it belongs,
with the people, who after all are the
parties at interest.

ate. Perhaps some day patent ap-
plication of the roentengen ray will
be made to do duty for such sieve and
the man whose brain is deficient in
gray matter will not be permitted to
flood the committee with legislative
smut When this desirable result is
attained, then it will be one step far
Their to an examination under the X
ray of legislative candidates, and the
consequent exclusion of all who have
not brains enough to pass the exam.
