Europe:s TndusfrioI cr,s,r.

The state department at Washington
is advised by its consults at some of
the European trade centers that an
industrial and financial crisis is i'm
pending there, if indeed it has not ac-
tually begun. From Germany comes
the assertion that "the wave of indus
trial prosperity in Europe, which has
steadily risen since 1885, has taken a
turn and begun to recede;" that all
signs point to a crisis in Industrial
lines before two years have passed, and
that any political disturbance might
bring on the inevitable crash with ex-
treme suddenness. In verifcation of
these discouraging predictions it is
pointed out that house rents and in
dustrial stocks have begun to decline,
that factories are closing and that the
shipping interests and water material
industries are making the most of the
South African and Chinese disturb

analyze the situation as being the re-
suit of overproduction-

petition in a Boston flower show. Then
various efforts were made to capture
it. An offer of $4,000 for a stock plant
was made by Higginbotham, of Chi
cago. Then came an offer of $4,000
from New York firm for one half
the product, of the greenhouse at which
it was produced. Mr.. Lawson raised
Mr.. Higginbotham's offer by $1,000, or
1900 for single plant, to be given
to the city of Boston fer propagation
by the city forester, provided its name
be not changed and the right to prop
agate it be given to no one else Then,
the competition waxing warm, he made
his offer of $50, 900 for the whole tout

est price ever paid any variety Of
marketable flower.
Mr. Lawson is said to be willing to
pay as extravagant a price for a win

We All Make Mistakes.

The older we get, the more we
realize this fact. He who says he
does not, be he young or old,
humble or mighty, has either a
colossal conceit or an elastic con-
science, and one is as bad as the
other. Deliver us from the man
who is always in the right and never
in the wrong. If there is an ever
lasting nuisance in the world, it is
he. The reflection in the glass
hows him the one whose Judgment
is infalliblc. and in sorrow his eyes
gaze upon the multitude in the
wrong because they do not agree
with him. The boy who starts
out realizing that he must
make errors, but with the de-
termination to profit by them
and not repeat them, has learned
one OF the worlds great lessons.
Our youth should be trained not To
be over cautious through fear Of
making mistakes, not to be over
proud and ashamed to acknowledge
mistakes, but frankly confessing
when he finds himself in the wrong,
undismayed, through perseverance
to succeed in spite of Mistakes

Advancement. in the way of profes

We speak of teaching as the ''high

cation prohibits their doing the
most effective work and bring con.

2. The indifference of some So
called prominent educators. A good
position with good pay seems to be
the height of their ambition. Sell
fishness is satisfied with position
and salary. The advancement Of
the educational profession means
to them good thing for self. If
any progress has been made they
have profted by it, and the progress
went on in spite of their indiffer-
ence and selfishness.
3. Politics --::lom politics. Too
many teachers owe their place to

merit. This is only too true.
But there is much to encourage.
Better preparation is required and
made, selfishness is giving place to
cooperation, and the low politician

athletic sports. Football seems tc
be the favorite with number OF
the schools Of our state.
When athletics are given their
proper place in relation to the men.
tai and moral training of children,
the practice is to be commended
but, when professional spirit pre-.
walls, brutality, excess and extrava.
gance are the attendant results. Il
is we'll, therefore, to mend the
abuses by regulation, rather than
to abolish these sports.
1t is gratifying to note that the
leading colleges of our country rec
0gnize the abuses and attendant
evils Of certain athletic sports or
contests To this end some very
reasonable regulations have been
agreed to, and the dangers and evil
results and tendencies may be re-

in the right direction, and it is to
be hoped that some Of the schools
that have caught the college sport

schools is not a blameworthy re

room for condemnation. The re
lation of the schools to society
however, is SO intimate, and theil
influences are so potent in theil
formative effects, that it would be
folly to claim that they are entirely
free from responsibility in this
grave matter. Even if the schools
have not contributed directly OF
purposely to it, they have not
studied how to prevent it. They
have cultivated, unintentioually, of
course, those characteristics which
have produced it, and have failed
to cultivate, except incidentally,
those better characteristics which
must correct it. Throughout the
whole course Of the development of
our public schools, their relation to
the child as an individual with per-
sonal ends in life to be attained
has been an all determining factor,
while their relation to the child as
a member of society has never been
sufficiently emphasized. The effort,
therefore, on the part of the schools
has uniformly been to enable the
child, when grown to manhood, to
successfully guard his personal in
terests and secure his personal ends.
There is no general or continued
effort to SO train and develop him
that he will contribute to the well
fare Of society. Why has the child
been taught to read, to write, to

ledge of these has seemed to be
absolutely essential in securing his
so-called rights among his fellows.
