The proud boast Of many southern
statesmen that their women felix's do
not aspire TO the
suffrage received
y severe jolt in the
recent Virginia constitutional conven-
ton, says the Cincinnati Enquirer,
when the following preamble and res
olu:iop was introduced by delegate
at the request of 'an estimable lady
of southwest Virginia:"
Whereas, The women of Virginia
pay one-tenth of the taxes Of the
state, and frequently support their
husbands and sons while the latter
are drinking such fluids that would
kill the higher order of animals;
chewing what the goat would e.chew,
and smoking what will eXterminate
vermin, and keeping such hours that
produce pygmies instead of men; and
Whereas, There is not enough
moral courage in either white or COL
ored electorate to pass moral, reli-
gious or wholesome laws; and
Whereas, There is a problem moro
serious and dangerous that man can't
solve and women can, and now in Nir-
ginia it is the white women's bur-
den; therefore,
"Resolved, That every white female
citizen OF the United States, 81 years
old, who shall have been resident
of this state IL months, and of the
county, city or town in which she
shall offer to vote three months next
preceding any election, shall be en-
titled to vote and hold office"

was wonderful place altogether and
while my wife went in to change her
dress the servants laid breakfast on
the vcranda overlooking the river
At the first clatter OF the plates
there began to come down from the
biz tree that overshadowed the house
and up the trees that grew in the
raviuC behind il, from the house root
itSClf-frOm everywhcrc--a multitude
OF solemn monkeys. They came up
singly and in couples and in families
and took their places without noise
or fuss on the veraEGa and sat there,
like an audience waiting for an en-
tcrtainmeut to commence. And when
everything was ready, the breakfast
all laid, the monkeys all seated,
went to call my wife.
"Brcakfast is ready and they are
all waiting" / said.
"Who are waiting?" she asked in
dismay. II thought we were going
to be alone and | was just coming
out in my dressing gown"
Never mind" | said. "The people
about here are not very fashionably
dressed themselves. They wear prct-
ty much the same things all the year
round"
And so my wife came out. Imagine
then her astonishment. In the mid
die of the veranda stood her break
fast table and all the rest of the
space, as we'll rs the ratings and the
steps, was covered with monkeys, as
grave as possible and as motionless
and silent as if they were stuffed.
Only their eyes kept blinking and
their little round ears kept twitch-
ing. Laughing hcartily-at which
the monkeys only looked all the
grayer-my wIlc sat down.
"Will they eat anything?" asked
she.
TRY them" said.
So she picked up a biscuit and
threw il among tic company. And
the result: About 300 monkeys
jumped up in the AIR like one. and
lust for an instant there was riot
that defes description. The next in
slant every monkey was sitting in its
place as solemn and serious as if it
had never moved. Only their eyes
winked and their ears twitched.
My wife threw them another bis
euit, and again the riot ana then an
other and another and another. But
at length we had given all that we
had to give and got up to 60. The
monkeys at once rose, every monkey
on the veranda, and advancing gray
" to the steps walked down them \
solemn procession, old and y"Nng
together, and dispersed for the Gays
occupations.

lOCdI 0OI
There were about 1925 children in
the district of school age, to q
years. when the school census was
taken in September. There are
about 100 pupils enrolled in the high
school, understand, making a total
enrolment of about 9OS in the city.
or the high school perhaps so pupils
are from the city. making an attend
ancc of perhaps $50 out of a total of
1925. This would leave an approXi-
mate of 1853 who are not in school. 1t
was my intention to look after delin-
quents of this kind, but we have a
greater number enrolled today in the
schools than the buildings will ac-
cOmmOdatc. In some of the rooms
there are not sufficient seats nor
room to put any more.
AT present we are using a small
recitation room entirely inadequate
for the purpose. both from seating ca
pacity and means of ventilation
There is basement also in the Cen
trail building which is wholly unfit
for a school ROOM yet we are sim
ply forced to use it or send pupils
home
Contrary to the choice or wishes
of the board of education. they were
compelled for want of room to have
finished in the new West school build
ing two rooms for the use of grade
rooms These are intended only for
temporary use, and it is hoped that it
will not be found necessary to use
them after the present year. Base
ments, at best. are very poor places
for grade rooms. The ventilation is
anything but good in these rooms.
and it is very unfortunate that we
are compelled to use them. They are,
no doubt. as good as any outside
rooms that we might obtain.
The rooms are all overcrowded.
ana it is impossible to make salts
factory showing with such large
number of pupils to each teacher.
Throughout the grades. with a few
possible exceptions. pupils show the
lack of individual attention. The
general result is that pupils are de-
ficicnt in the ability to think defin-
itely and express their thoughts.
No more beginners will be received
this year. Already we have had to
refuse admission to several in the
first grade. 1t is only when pupil
leaves the higher grades that we
have room to put another.
Notwithstanding our beautiful new
West school building, we still lack
two grade rooms. The school census
shows good prospects of a large en-
trance class next year into the first
grade. These. added to the increas-
ing immigration, will force an in
crease in the number of teachers for
next year and resort again to rent
ing outside buildings. These facts
prompt the important question:
What is to be done. considering the
fact that the district is already
bonded and taxed to the full limit
of the law and yet without sufficient
funds to meet the running expenses
of the schools?' Instead of forcing
an attendance of those who are not
in school. we are nearly to the point
of refusing admission to those who
apply for admission.
