knowledge, as it is their privilege to be

teachers to adopt a practical method of
CatCCnlSlnS cnlluTPH III lllt great
truths of revealed religion.

alton of our national council that the ed
ucational standard of the ministry should
be maintained at the elevated point whe,e

istry now too often practiced.

Build a Warship.

~
Commissioner Wight was waited upon
yesterday afternoon at his residence by
three young boys, one of them a son of
Senator Fairbanks, and all of them pupils
of the Force public school, the boys re-
qresting him to lay before the board Of
Commissioners the proposition that the
children of the public schools of the Dis
to buy or build for the navy small tor
pc 90 boat or some loaf Of that character.
The youngsters stated to Mr.. Wight that
the school children Of other cities are pro-
posing to do the same thing, and they do
not believe that boys and girls CT the Dis
trict desired to be o bit behind in following
SO patriotic an exc mple. They desired the
Commissioners to communicate with me
Secretary of the Navy and ascertain for
them what the Secretary would advise in
the matter. as well as the probable cost OF
such a vessel. They said they desired the
sanction of the Commissioners In the mat
ter and IL the school children of the Dis
trict could not contribute enough to build
a boat what they did secure could be used
as the Secretary thought best for the pro-
lection of the country.
Mr.. Wight commended the boys for their
patriotism, and promised 70 do all he could
for them. Today he referred the matter
to Commissioner Ross who has immediate
charge of the public schools. who In turn
referred 1t to the board of trustees, as
they, under the law, have the care and
manage ment of the public schools of the
District. 1t is needless to say that Mr..
Ross highly appreciated the patriotic mo-
leagues, will assist them in every way pos
Sible.
