PREFERRED IN BUSINESS
CChicago News.l

Prejudice against college and high
school students is dying out. Ten years
ago they were received with disfavor
by business men. Today they find the
commercial world glad to receive them
The trained mind has the advantage
over the one merely fortified with a.
knowledge Of bookkeeping, shorthand
and commercial law. Business men
have come to value young man for
what he VIII amount to- the capabiH-
ties which he possesses, rather than
for a good hand" and a smattering of
Office methods which he may secure at
business college. Some Of the latter
institutions have a tendency to dwarf
and narrow the mind, TO take the am
bition out of the average boy. They
do not turn out broad-minded young
men as rule. Their methods almost
preclude such a possibility"

the Chicago public schools. thus threw

quarantine districts in the north end
majority of them are not in American

in we had but three cases in this city.

He spoke at an informal conference CT
educators and board of education
members. There was scorn in his
iege methods, and a CLEAN OF war IN
his eye. He leaned back in his chair
and proceeded:
1T is the training of the mind that
educators now realize constitutes their
vocation, not the stufing of youth with
rules which mean nothing, but a course
Of study which VIII produce mental
vigOr, inspire to work and awaken a
thirst for knowledge. The president of
one of the largest concerns in Chicago
told me & few days ago that his COM
pany now gives preference to the grad
yates OF hlSn schools in engaging as
sistants. Formerly they preferred
grammar school graduates.
I do not doubt that q business school
graduate VIII be the more useful of the
two if compared with a high school or
a college graduate during the first few
months OF work. Che pattern made
clerk viii write better, probably he
will figure more rapidly and be for the
time a better am2nuensis. But after
the man with the four or eight-year
course Of education has mastered the
technical labor he viii distance the
other with every day. And II you want
an idea of the value to the Employer,
imagine him obliged to leave his Office
in charge of one or the other. Do you
think he would have any hesitancy
about leaving the scholar in charger
Men who manage large interests
want young men of good address to
represent them. The public schools of
Chicago teach business methods, but
they do not cOnfine the course to that
line. 1t is given in connection with
other studies calculated to cultivate
the mind, through course Of years
Il do not agree with Judge Cutting,
as he was quoted in the Daily News
short time ago; that there should be
lengthening of the grammar school
course. If there should be any change
I think it ought to be in the other di-
tiOn-shortening the grammar course
and placing the pupils in the high
schools earlier. I should like to see
the eighth grade in the high school.
The question as to whether algebra
should be taught in the grammar
school or not was also brought before
the meeting at which Judge Cutting
spoke There are schools where it
should be taught in the eighth grade
and there are others where 1t has no
place under present conditions But
educators are always confronted with
the fact that children differ widely IN
their requirements, and on the whole l
believe we would not be justified in
removing it from the course of study at
the present time

The TRIP
OF A LIFE TINE.

ION my return from Denver I took
the fast train, leaving there at o.
m ard arriving at Chicago at $50 D.
m. This was the fastest trip for such
distance that ] ever made. and, as
understand it, you can run with safety
still faster. 1 have crossed the plains
several times before, and the average
speed was usually twenty-five to
twenty-five miles per hour. I think
your company is entitled to the great
est credit for increasing the speed to
nearly double what it was a few years
ago, and that. too, with the greatest
comfort and safety. This was the most
satisfactory trip that 1 ever made in
my life. and I am sure that such ser
vice as your company gives will very
greatly increase the traffic. Martin

The Farmer and the Roundlap Bale.

Uader its new management The
huslnes So of the American Cotton
Company is being vigorously pushed
The Southern farmer is fast coming
t. see that his interests and those Of
he American Cotton Company lie in
t1e same dicec;iou. Every unneces-
ssry expense in marketing cotton is
that much taken out of The farmers
pockets, and every dollar be saves by
having his cotton put up in roundlsp
bales is that much added to his pro
fits. Tue American Cotton Com
papy's interest lies in enabling tn
press es it builds to bale es much
cotton as possible. Ia order to Sc
cure this result it is essential that
cotton growers shall continue to find
advantage in the use of these presses.
There is 10 requirement that q single
bale of cotton be sold to the Ameri
eau Cotton Company. Rouudisp
b lies, with all Of their advantages,
can be bought il open competition
by any responsible buyer and han
dled.lhroueh to the mile. hut when.
ever the ordinary cottcp buyer de-
clrnes to purchase rcundlap bales on
this basis the American Cotton Com-
pany stands ready to buy them.
The farmer who hauls his seed
cotton to roundlap gin may retain
as complete control over it as if be
took it to an c,d-style gianery. He
can sell his cotton with or without
the seed, or he can hsve it custom
gipned Selling or keeping tie seed)
and hold his rcundlap bales until he
is ready to sell, with the assurance
that they are always salable at The
full market value of. roundlap cotton.
