| \ vigorous attack upon teachers Oi
The public schools because of their In.
ability to teach English correctly was
made by Trustee Austin u. Sexton. of
the Board of Education. AT the last
meeting of the Principals !Associa zion.
Mr.. Sexton expressed himself in very
decided language. II" wanted less
reading. hut more grammar.
"';odspccd the day when our boys
and girls will leave the public schools
with u good command of English" he
declared. lie was strongly opposed to
having u knowledge of the fine use of
the English language taught IN prefer.
cncc To grammar. lie desired to see
the grammar text book more used.
Mr.. sections address followed the
reading of u paper on Language" by
District superintendent Sabin. In this
the author urged that reading and lit
'fat,irc he made the means Of u broad.
~ and more liberal education ns well
ns IN incentive to the use of better
English. He favored more supplement
tai reading In the schools. At the con.
cl'ision of the paper Mr.. sexton took
the floor.
II have no fault to find with the M.
per Of Mr.. Snbin." he declared. But I
cannot say that agree with him IN
regard to placing reading before gram.
mar. believe that there are few teach.
crs In our public schools to-day who
can speak English correctly. The great
fault Is that too much stress Ii placed
upon literature.
'Thc girls who graduate from, our
normal school have not the proper
amount of training In grammar to bc
able To teach IL to others. II IL a fact
That many Of the teachers In the public
school do not know how to use the verb.
the ndvcrb. the noun and prOnorn cor.
'rctly. How many teachers are there
who can name the eight parts Of speech
without first thinking over II for some
time! IL should be- the object of every
teacher To acquire thorough knowl- |
edge OF the grammatical forms nnd
'llen communicate them to the stu.
dcnts. \ reader II born. hut n good
gra'nnarlnn must attain the title only
by a thorough mastery of the text
books. Literature * well enough. II
Is u means Of acquiring learning as well |
ls means Of recreation. Hut when |
the student leaves school he can then
read better and nssimilate the matter |
herein contained better. provided he
has II good foundation In the WHY of
The proper use of English. Let us teach
pir pupils Englisll-good English. Let
'vcry principal take care that this IL
lone. AZ u member of the Board of
Education. ! shall use every effort to
nave grammar dwclt upon strongly"

through tampcring with the meters.
VIII me rascally clerks he punished
alone. or Will they stand i'm the dock
beside the men who benefited by their
croOkcdncss?
The public has n short memory, but
perhaps II can recall the outcome of
the water meter scandal" a few years
ago. The evidence directly implicated
prominent manufacturers In the theft
of hundreds of thousands of dollars
worth of water from the city. but we
do not remember that one of the per-
sons named was ever placed In jeopar-
dy. And this happened during the al.
ministrntion of that paragon of hon
csty and embodiment, of all the Chris
tian virtues. the Hon. GEORGE B. Swift.
Exchange.

\ Surprisingly large number of the

Ivan. Robert 4. Bussc. Albert Glade
AMI James i. Cayanagh. These men
served In the Nth General Assembly
ana made such bad records that many
of them were denied denomination by
their party organizations two years
ago. Evidently the party managers
think any sort of legislative timber will
do In n presidential year. ana men who
were rejected when the Allen law was
fresh In the public mind are now al
lowed to show their heads again.
Taken as whole. the legislative
nominations 81 far made, by the Re
publicans Of Cook County are very I'M
satisfactory. In view of the import

prchenslon. \ move should he made 10
