one of the particularly sig

retary of Agriculture Wilson's
address at the graduation exer-
cises of the National Farm
at Doylestown last week found
no place in the majority of the
reports. Apparently the majority of
the reporters present were so absorbed
in the unique character of this Hebrew
departure for teaching the science and
practice of agriculture in unison. that
they failed TO notice the secretarys
strong setting forth of the i'm
portance of the farmers vocation, as
forming the very foundation, the under
pinning, of civilized life and national
prosperity, and of the deplorabe lack
of vision regarding this fact in quarters
where it should, in especial manner,
be recognized.
Possibly the great middle West, and
the grain producing territory beyond.
sent al least one representative to
hear and report Mr.. Wilson's speech.
For II is to the Chicago Record Herald
that we are indebted for the point
he made as to lack of apprecia ton of
the basic value of the farmers work
and the ever growing necessity for his
scientific training. Mr. Wilson said in
relation to this: This benefcence is
one of the very few in our land. or in
any land, where philanthropists give
money to educate the young farmer.
Wealthy men are giving for education
in all other ina ginable lines, for which
we must not withhold our admiration.
But the necessity for educa ton in the
field of production has not been i'm
pressed upon those who give toward
the elevation of the masses. although
manufacturers and commerce both
depend upon agriculture. The educat-
ed men of our country III not compre-
hend the value of scientific knowledge
to the farmer, and with few exceptions
are hostile or entirely indifferent re-
gardng its requirements"
Later, after specific mention of some
of this Country's most valuable pro-
ducts of the soil. Mr.. Wilson remarked
that we must teach the people of our
island possessions to grow what we
cannot raise at home; and for this
must send them teachers, just such as
sttution is training. The millionaire
and other givers may ponder these
words.

THE HIDDEN GOLD.

The unexpected charm OF little things,
Like wind. from hills OF honey clover, brings
breath Of melody pure and sweet
The heart takes up the music on its strings.
When | behold happy man while,
Whose random laughter stops the guess OF guile,
see some chubby babe OF long ago
Rubbing its dimplcs into this-his smile.
Too light kiss to leave so sweet breath?
Look at the rose-How will il leave its wreath
OF purple pride, its perfume and its soul?-
Wrapped in a seed-that tiny urn Of death.
Forgotten in the valley, soon or late.
That urn is spilled into the land OF Fate:
'Tis the old blood on fire. as red or white
And white or red, that has meant Love. or Hate.
Would YOU foretel the color Of the rose,
Unmindfll OF the changing bud that grows.
Lift up TO the mother stalk. and in her face
There read a mothers answer-for she knows
O, heart that will not listen to the song
OF little birds! o, eye that will not long
Pity the sweetpea, winged. but shared in fight,
What brothers have you in the passing throng?
Another race for other worlds that eleam
The silver planets and the stars that seem
Forbidden gold, If gathered to the reach
oi our desire, would melt into dream!

T\OR A NUMBER Of years an
agitation has grown within
u the membership of the bar
of Pennsylvania for a strict
er imposition of qualificat ton tests
upon applicants for admission. This
seems likely soon to bear substantial
fruit.
At the recent meeting of the Penn
sylvania Bar association at Bedford
Springs. the committee in charge OF
this matter headed by Samuel Dick
son. chancellor of the Law association
OF Philadelphia, and including such
men as Attorney General Knox, For
mer Chief Justice Samuel Gustine
Thompson, Former Attorney General
Hensel and Prof. George Wharton
Pepper, Lackawanna's representative
being one of the pioneers in the move
ment, John NJ. Harris. reported that
last May. under authority conferred a
year ago, it had memoralzed the
state Supreme court to appoint a state
board OF law examiners, and gave as
surance that the court was seriously
impressed by the recommendations
submitted and inclined 10 give a favor
able consideration to the suggestions.
provided the details could be satisfac-
torily arranged, concerning which the
court would again confer with the
committee.
The memorial to the court briefly
summarized the work of the associa-
tion in investigating the subject of
legal education and admission to the
bar In. Pennsylvania, and pointed out
that there could be no uniformity so
long as a different standard existed
in each Of the fifty-four judicial dis
tricts IN the state. in each of which
board of examiners row existed. The
memorial urged upon the considera-
tion OF the court that a central sys-
tenn to regulate admissions to the bar
had been established with most salts

including New York, Illinois, Massa-

the only important state jurisdiction
in the country where the county sys-
TEN of admissions was still continued.
The memorial reported adversely
upon the admission OF men to the bar
upon law school degrees, and pointed
out that that practice had long since
been abandoned In all important iuris-
dictions, that Harvard diploma no
longer admitted To the bar in Massa-

Il the outWorn and tyraniCal
methods of study for ex-
aminations, instead of study for en-
richment and strengthening of the
faculties and powers of the mind, is
a most hopeful token of a better day
coming. That it has come in some
cities of our land the readers of this
paper know. When the written exam
ination tests disappears the examining
system disappears also. There is time.
opportunity and invitation for the
teacher to give individual attention
to each pupil, to the bringing of the
best and fullest results of its school
days to each.
Every instance of awakened interest
for the reform that must come is
distinct pleasure. The words of another
contemporary, the Troy, y. Y, Times,
in addition some of those we have
quoted, or referred to, are exceedingly
welcome. 1t writes: "The season of
graduation makes timely the revival of
the protest against the arbitrary eX-
animation paper at the terms end as
the absolute test of pupils progress.
1t is noticeable that the protest is
stronger and more widespread this year
than ever before. The examination
paper as a Procrustean bed must go.
In our own city a Commendable ad-
vance has been made within the last
year by charging the elective oppor-
tunity of the student in the assignment
of topics of study. This modifies the
absolutism of theme. But so long as
the terrors of written examination
papers remain, and are not superseded
by promotions based on days work,
there will continue the absoutism of
method, with its premium upon power
to stuff the memory rather than to
exercise the judgment. The prime
purpose of education is to strengthen
rather than to load the mind. so that
II may do its own loading, and, what is
fully as important. it's own unload
ing. Educational instrumentalities are
manfesting great progress, and will
decide ere long that examining for eX-
aminations is not wholesome process,
ana is too often suggestive of the
festivals of tribes that were devoted to
cannibalsm."
The pupil who is aware each morn
ing that the days work If earnest and
well done will count" in promotion, as
well as in the happiness of a present,
actual gain-and every child, from the
naturally brightest to the one dulest
from whatever cause, is capable Of that
happiness-that pupil viii try to do
that days work well. Those swift and
strong OF mind will not be held back
waiting for others TO the terms or the
years end. In how many schools
would the opportunity be accorded to
one like the Russian girl VINO this June
graduated from a Boston grammar
school, and will enter one of the high
schools, having taken the four years
course in one, although when she came
from Russia year ago she could not
speak the English tongue at all?"
On the other hand, those slow to

In order TO show "a good class

system, which never have tolerated the
arbitrary written examination. and
their educational results have been OF

An interesting feature Of the development Of
the tea trade is the increasing proportion which
India and Ceylon supply Of the imports into the
United states. The exports Of tea from India to
the United States increased from o2so00 pounds in
1925 to I,fli,ooo pounds in is9O and those from
Ceylon increased from $4,000 pounds in 1895 to
2'oeO,oo pounds in 1899. From adviccs recently
received by the treasury bureau OF statistics it
is probable that the total exports Of tea from
India and Ceylon for the full year 1901 and sub.
sequent years will decrease, as planters in those
countries manifest disposition TO limit produc.
tion in order to stimulate prices.

that in all these jurisdictions the cam
didate was compelled to submit to
the regular examinations conducted by
the board Of examiners appointed by
the court Of last resort. Continuing,
1t was pointed out that there were two
methods whereby to secure the ap-
pointment of state board % law ex-
the Supreme court. the other by an act
ot legislature. The committee stated
that the Bar association had reached
the conclusion that II was moro ad-
Visahle for the Supreme court to ap-

who by their character and attain

flee. The memorial then proceeded to
outline briefly the system which would
result were this sustained by the SUI
preme court. 1t was suggested to the
court that they should adopt a new
rule, providing for a complete system
of registration and examnat ton, the
examinations to be conducted at least
twice yearly in at least three places
within the state, with the proviso that
If five or more candidates made appli-
cation TO have any regular examina-
tion held al a county seat, the board
could he empowered to conduct the
same through proctors appointed by
the local judges; that these eXamina-
tions woud be upon the same ques-
tions as those submitted at the three
central points. 1t was further sub
mitted that the new system would in
no way alter the status of attorneys
applying for admission from other
states. or who had previously been Ad-
mitted to the bar of a lower court in
Pennsylvania.
As to those now studying law in
order to secure uniformity. at once,
all should be permitted to appear be-
fore the state board of law examiners
after the completion of their three
years of study. 1t was shown that the
funds to meet necessary expenses
could be readily secured by the adop-
ton of the plan in force in other
states, where the. candidate is re-
quired to pay an examination fee. The
committee suggested that the fee be
fixed at twenty-five dollars, the same
amount as that established by the
legislature for appearance before the
state medical board. 1t was pointed
;,,
dates were compelled to pay four hun
dred dollars before they were per-
mtted to be registered. The commit
tee reported against the erection of
any such pecuniary barrier but sub
mitted that an examination fee could
be required with the utmost propriety,
provided II was proportioned to the
expenditure of time and labor on the
part of the examiners consistent with
the means of every ambitious young
American, sincerely determined to fol-
low the calling of the law.
In connection with the memorial
the committee submitted letters from
leaders of the profession in Pennsyl-
vania heartily endorsing the scope of
the memorial. Among these were
strong letters from both Judge Will
lard and Major Everett Warren.
The wisdom and propriety of the
contemplated action are manifest and
need no defense.
