DEWEY METHOD.
Head OF a Noted School to Visit
u, ,nOiuIu.


1t is likely that the next lecturer of
the University Extension course here
will be Professor Dewey, Of the faculty
of the University OF Chicago. He Is
an authority on biology, but Is best
known for what Is called his informal
school for children. He shares with
Count Leo Tolstoi, the famous Rus
sian, most hearty disregard for the
rigid rules of educators. The idea is
to appeal directly to the sense OF JUS
tice and the intelligence or common
sense OF the child. Much of his teach
ing Is by object lessons. The school
has manual training department on
small scale. At noon the children
are instructed in the preparation of a
meal. The scholars are delicately i'm
pressed with their own responsibility
for the maintenance of order in the
school room.
The Dewey method has been subject
ed TO much criticism. 1t has attracted
the widest attention and there will be
the greatest Interest in its explanation
by the teacher himself.
IL Professor Dewey does come 10
Honolulu he will arrive in June next
and remain nearly three months. He
Is coming out to California to lecture
and 1t Is local people who are TO invite
him to come to this place. A conyid-
cradle sum towards an expense fund
mas already been guaranteed.

Refreshments were served and they de-
serve special mention. They were all
prepared by the Rebekahs and were
of high quality. The following eX-
cellent program was rendered:

The selection OF the Amateur Or
chestra showed the benefit of recent
practice. The different parts We're well
executed and all formed harmonious
whole Miss Ada GertZ shows great
talent for one so young. She shows a
natural ability for the piano-forte
which should make her a true artistic.
Madame Jarley's Wax Works were full
Of fun. Miss Kruger's piano solo
proved her to be a mistress OF tech
nique. She Is a comparatively new ar
rival, but her ability has already be-
come well known. C. A. ElstOn sang
his solo in his usual excellent manner
The second selection of the Amateur
Orchestra proved fully as entertaining
as the first. The following remarks by
w. c. Parke, ID. ID. S., were well de
livered and attentively listened to:
On behalf of the Sovereign Grand
Lodge, whom have the honor to rep
resent, ! wish you, one and all, a cor
dial welcome this evening. We have
come together on the Goth OF April TO
celebrate the elghtieth anniversary OF
our order. and the continued success OF
the principles and truths for which
Odd Fellowship stands. The members
OF the order scattered over all the
world meet today, to do honor to the
anniversary, and although We cannot
unite with them in person, we can in
spirit and good wishes. Looking back
from the small beginning, organized by
our beloved Thomas Wildey in 1919, we
see the early struggles for a foothold,
the gradual development, until today
we see the foremost place among the
charitable societies Of the world occu-
pied by our order. This Is a well
known story, and 1t Is with pardonable
pride that we turn to 1t each year,
when We take into consideration the
vast amount OF good the order has
done and Is doing.
According to the last returns the
membership OF the order was 1880
and the sum of money expended for
relief purposes was $3364,629.41.

THE CURRENCY BILL.

All sorts of lini)ns are afioat re-ative 10
the sentiments of Republ can Represen n
tatves and Senators respecting the cur
rency bill, which the committee appointed
by caucus of The Republican members
of the House in the last Congress has pre-
pared. The substance of the bill was given
in our dispatches a day or two ago. The
bin viii have to be approved by the eau
Gus of the House Republicans before le-
ing introduced.
1t Is asserted that the House ReDubli-
cans win approve the bill at the caucus
to he held TO night. 1t is not believed,
however, that It will get through the
House in its present shape. A good deal OF
opposition to it has cropped out among
Republicans The Democrats are of course
opposed TO it.
There are many reports as 10 what it's
fate is likely to be i'm the Senate if 1t
reaches that body. In some Of the dis
patches from Washington it is asserted
that The opposition in the West is so great
that there is very little probability of its
coming 10 a vote in the Senate during this
session. In otter dispatches, dispatches
printed in Republican papers that are very
friendly to the administra ton, it is said
that there is a Gear majority of six for
the measure
AS a matter of fact il is too early to say
what The sentiments of Senators in respect
to 1t are. Ii is doubtful If any considera-
bic number of them have expressed their
views In regard to it. What has appeared
in the public prints about the attitude of
Senators relative TO it is mere guess wo.k.
1t can be said that in the great money
conters The bill is regarded with favor by
Eus ness men. Particularly is this the case
in New York. Bus ness men generally ana
bankers especially are anxious to have the
money question settled. That is one of the
reasons why the bll is favored. Some of
the Republican papers are against it be-
cause they think it will injure the chances
of the Republican party for winning he
presidential election next year.
1t is worthy OF notice that Senator Nor
gan takes a very radical view of the b II.
He says that the government cannot
change the contract it has with it's bond
holders, and that this currency bin
changes that contract He holds that if
this bill were passed and enforced 1t would
Justify Reputation. This is an extreme
view, which probably is entertained by
very few, if any, other members of Con-
gress. Senator Morgan, however, is one
of the ablest men in either branch of Con-
gress.

SOMETHING ron NOTHING.

According to Senator-elect Depew of New
York people in every walk OF life in every
part of the world are gamblers. They
want to get something for nothing. People
possessing considerable property, and hav-
ing social position to maintain, are will
ing to share the profits of any sort of
financial undertaking, however shady it
may be- provided they can do so without
danger of being found out.
Senator Depew's remarks were based
on the developments in connection with
the Franklin Syndicate. That concern. as
already slated in the dispatches of the
Morning News. got hundreds of thousands,
it may be millions, of dollars from dupes
before the police took charge Of it. Among
iis victims We're many men very Wen
known in their respective communities.
1t is fair TO assume that some. if not all,
Of them knew that the Franklin Syn
aicate was a swindlng concern. They
believed, however. that they could win Dig
profits and get their money out of it before
It's true character was disclosed and they
took the chances of doing 50.
Senator Depew said that he got hundreds
of letters every day from persons in vari-
GUS parts of the country asking him to
invest various sums of money for them.
so they could realize enormous profits from
it, They seemed to have the idea thar
there were ways in which they could dou-
Bile their money In a few days and they
were eagerly hunting for them. They had
no idea Of course how money could be
made to earn three hundred or four hun
bred per cent, but they felt assured that
there were ways in which that return
could be got for Il, and they were ready
to take any risk. however great, to get
something for nothing.
And. strange as It may appear, the mos
of those who write to Senator Depew Of
fering him their money for invest

gain hunters They lack caution, and con-
sequently they figure largely in all of the
wild schemes which are advertised for get

have a little money insist upon doubling

One of the chief peculiarities of Elihu
Root, the Secretary of War. is his ability
as a listener. says the Philadelphia Satur-
day Evening Post. He listens without
prejudice, which is one of the rarest of
all gifts. To club member this gift is
indispensable if he wants to rise to office
and Mr.. Root has been president at one
time or another of almost every club he
has belonged to- The growth of the war
secretary has been slow. But 1t has been
sure. AS a lawyer he has had the genius
of industry, and early in his profess onal
life he learned the value of preparing both
sides of every case he had. AS a result
he frequently knew more about his adver-
sarys case than his adversary did himself
This thoroUghness gave him an envia BILE
standing at the bar Long before he was
generally known he was made United
States attorney for the Southern district
of New York. That was years ago, and
many laymen thought the President was
appointing an incompetent man, because
he was comparatively unknown but Mr.
Roots public services demonstrated the
wisdom of his choice.
Not only has Mr. Root a genius for lis
tening. but he rivals La Hung Chang in
his ability to interview an interviewer

reporter was sent to Washington to OBJ

Governor Leary of Guam
Holds court in the shade Of a palm.
He comes of the race that takes lighting
as play,
That jokes with tomorrow and blarneys
to-day.
That governs by instinct but hates to
obey.
Is that why they sent him to Guam?
They gave him, like sancha, an isle
to rule with benevolent guile.
The natives were lazy: they didn't wear
much
Their manners were fine, but their morals
were such
That Decency galtoped away on a crutch
And Vice lounged around in smile.
But Leary--a monarch of force
Gave heed to his subjects, of course.
He taught them that manhood by industry
thrives:
He showed them the folly of triplicate
And greatly reduced their assortment of
wives
BY crude but effective divorce.
Yet hear of the feats of his Quill,
We students of Spencer and Mini
