Investigations were recently made
in one Of our larger cities looking to
cause for the standing Of pupils in
class work in schools. The result was
what might have been expected:
those students who Staid at home
evenings carried off the honors and
those who were loafng on the streets
were in the lowest ranks. The boy or
girl who has no time" In the eve
ming to devote to study has time and
disposition more for other things than
study, and consequently the school
does not accomplish for such people
what it was designed to accomplish.
And in so far as it fails by the neglect
Of young people to make the best Of
their opportunities our taxes are use

majority of people do not object to
labor and to place portion Of the re-
suits Of their toll to secure the admin

Always Save Your Mother.

There was a spirited debate at the
oolored Baptist church last night. The
question up for consideration was as to
whether a man should save his wife or
mother if both were drowning. Willie
Hancock and the Rev. Mr.. Ward spoke
in favor of the wife. but Jim Rollins,
Mrs. VIVA Hardin, \, Ward and Bill
Adams each pleaded aehalf of the
mother. A jury of colur,d women heard
the evidence, and after due considera.
ton voted that the mother should be
the one saved. The argument which
clinohed the decision was that if a
mother should drown another.could not
be obtained, but if a wife should go un-
der her successor could easily be picked
up.-Carthage Press.
