Adopted His Own Daughter,

From the Denver Republican
A father adopted his own child yesterday
In Judge Steele's court when Jacobena
Alice Mary Reich was made the legally
adopted child of Louis Lars Fardig and his
wife Mary The petition says that Fardig' $
first wife, Jacobena deserted him shortly
after the child was born and departed for
parts unknown. He then permitted his sis
ter by adoption, Maggie Reich and her
husband Frank to adopt the child and give
her their name. Fardig secured a divorce in
1885. In 1897 his adopted sister died Far
dig married again last August and since
then the child has been with them. Reich
also remarked and his wife and he are
about to move to Oregon. AS the legal GUS
tody of Jacobena belongs to Reich, Fardig
found 1t necessary TO take legal steps to
obtain the right to call his own child daugh-
ter. The proceedings We're entirely AMIGA
Bile. The decree was granted and the child
who Is about ten Years old, will hereafter
be known as Jacobena Ella Fardig.

cience or art, but what must bt

science or art, but what must be
preceded by drawing, we may grasp
the Importance of this branch of edu-
cation. In many cities of lesser pop
ulation, drawing is a prominent study,
and it may be noted that with the ex-
ception of one or two other studies, it
is often the only one taught that is of
much practical service to the pupil.
How much greater is the necessity
of education in this branch in an in
dustrial city such as Wheeling? In
an industrial city people work with
hand and brain, and what other study
have we that teaches the hand to work
in accord with the brain? We are
turning out artisans and mechanics in
the industrial branches-they should
be taught to plan, design and draw
their work. They may be potters,
carpenters, masons, glass workers,
bricklayers, painters, builders, &c. Is
it not as much the duty of the schools
is to partly fit students for inferior
clerical positions only?
There has been a great awakening
in Europe and America to the fact that
there is something radically wrong
with the usual system of education,
and the drift is now moving swiftly
toward practical education. The great
objection now found is that the grad
uate from the ordinary system has
neither trade nor profession. The
question then arises, has he derived
benefits commensurate with the time
spent in the requirement of his theo-
retical knowledge?
We have college population in the
United States of more than $4,000.
This great army expects to enter the
professions which are now crowded
to overlooking. We have public
school population of nearly 15,O00,000.
A few of these will drift into profess
sions, but the vast majority will of
necessity, enter upon industrial occu-
pations They will begin work the
moment they leave school, no matter
how much or how little the education
they may have. In truth, many of
these are so sore pressed by family
| necessities that they can i'll afford the
time they must give toward the
requirement of the scant and soon for
gotten knowledge that they receive.
1t is the duty of the school system,
to at least partially educate these
young people to meet the conditions
that will face them in actual life.
Hence, the sudden awakening to the
necessity of practical education, and
| the creation of industrial or technical
| schools. Drawing is to these schools
almost what the alphabet is to the
| language.
The foundation of construction of
| any Kind rests upon the practice and
knowledge of this branch, and aside
from this. knowledge Of drawing

Of form. figure and color.

DRAWING IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

At times the question of drawing
In the public schools is agitated more
or less. Concerning this permit us to
observe that if it is the intention of
the schools to give students a practi-

Importance.

tages of drawing are so manifest that
to argue the necessity or usefulness

change from the usual system Of the
oretical education, to the more adj
vanced practical education, it can be
approached gradually by the addition
of practical branches and the elimina-
ton or contraction of less necessary
branches, until the public school will
be of more value to the bread winner
than it is at present. And the prac
teal education of practical person
should include drawing.

Placing the Responsibility

The blood Of our soldiers in the far away
Philippines, bravely shed in an gnoble
cause, is not upon Aguinaldo's men. His
men fought for their native country as we
should fight for ours, and for the liberty
that is no less dear to them than it is to us.
They fought as our own fathers fought.
against colonial subjugation and for the
Independence to which all men are enti-
tied but which no men are accorded unless
they do fight. That they fought bravely,
even if ineffectively, our own newspapers
testify. And they fought as patriots if
ever men did. Not upon their heads is the
blood of our outraged and slaughtered
soldiers, whose enlistment to put down
one tyrsnt is being taken advantage of to
make them instruments in setting up an
other. This black deed is attributable
not to them, but to President Mckinley.
He and the hungry landgrabbers who ad-
wise him in his imperial policy are the
men to blame. They 1t is who have want
only brought terrible sorrow and wrench
ing anxiety to many American homes, and
