ing of commercial branches does not
detract one iota from the high ideal"
theories. On the contrary the utilitar-
ian studies afford the greatest oppor-
tunities in character building. in citi-
zenship, and in psychology.
Wherein do the dead languages con-
tain any such opportunities. and il not,
why not mako such studies the cleo
tives?
Charles Reade, in "The Coming
Man." says: Il advise parents to have
all their boys and girls taught short
hand and typewriting. A shorthand
writer who can typewrite his notes
would be safer from poverty than a
great Greek scholar"
Wendell Phillips, says: "Our schools
ignore the fact that seven-tenths of their
scholars must earn their daily bread" 4"
The general public, recognizing this
fact, demands that the pupils be given
an opportunity to take up such studies
that will bring success which in turn
brings happiness and contentment, and
make useful and helpful citizens.

Views Upon Unitarian

Schools.

Editor News-Democrat:
Please accord space for the following
in addition to what was said under date
of July q:
In order that we may not be wrong
fully charged as being opposed to a
college education, we wish to state that
on the contrary we are heartily In favor
of such an education and only wish that
every boy and girl, who graduates, as
well as others, could secure it. But,
when we see only fifteen per cent. of
our graduates able to attend college,
and some of these do so because they
are offered free scholarship. the ques-
tion is pertinent: What is best to be
done for the eighty-five per cent who
are not able to attend college. yet are
expected to make useful citizens?
We wish to repeat the question: Is
1t just; is ali being done for the eighty
five per cent of our pupils who must be
stretched or cut off in order that they
may be squeezed through course that
is especially intended for the fifteen per
cent. who graduate? Were 1t not bet
ter for our children that the course be
so made as to meet the needs of the
larger. number Of pupils? 1t is said
that our children should be taught
high ideal, honesty, character, etc. We
are, however, of the opinion that the
psychological training in many of the
high schools has not been all that is
claimed for 1t. 1t is said that money
getting. or the utilitarian studies
should not form a part of the high
school course. implying that the high
est ideals could not be taught from the
commercial branches. That honesty
and character can be more successfully
impressed upon the mind of the young;
that their duties towards their fellow
men. can be more forcibly brought to
their attention through commercial
studies, than through the dead Ian
guages, we are fully convinced.
We believe that those branches, those
things. those studies should be in the
course that will enable one to earn q
dollar honestly and with the greatest
ease. In the present state OF society no
man can get along without the dollar
everybody wants it-everybody must
have it--and everybody will have it,
even the teachers and principals them
selves. To get that dollar with the
least expenditure of nerve force. is one
of the essential things that may well
be taught by those In authority and
may unhesitatingly be put into the cur
riculum, which will meet with public
favor, while college presidents and theiI
allies only. Will critlcise, The teach

Attorney General Stops
Agricultural Society
FROM GETTING FUNDS
On Claim Made to the Auditor
for Certain Sums to Which
1t Believed Itself To
Be Entitled.

Staff Correspondence.
Columbus. July 9.-Attorney General
Sheets has been advised that the Stark
County Agricultural society will begin
mandamus proceedings in either the
common pleas or circuit court to compel
the auditor of Stark county to pay to
the organization funds which 1t claims
1t is entitled to draw from the county
treasury, and which are withheld pur-
suant to an opinion rendered by the at
torney general some time ago. No
charges have been preferred against the
society and the controversy is the out
growth of difference of opinion over a
point in law between Prosecutor Rob-
ert H. Day and the society in which the
position of the prosecutor is sustained
by the ruling of the attorney general.
Section 3697 of the revised statutes
provides that where an agricultural So
ciety pays to its treasurer voluntary
subscriptions, or fees imposed on its
members, the society is entitled to
RECEIVE FROM THE COUNTY
a sum equivalent to the one so raised,
not less, however, than $50, nor more
than $500. 1t appears that last year the
Stark County Agricultural society re-
ceived $500. as membership fees; $685.
81, as live stock entries, and $500 as
speed class entries, ali of which the
organization classified under the head
of receipts from fees and voluntary
subscriptions, and put in claim to the
county for $500. sThe contention of the
society was that this classification came
under the scope of the law and that
they were entitled to the full amount
of their claim.
Prosecutor Day wrote Attorney Gen.
eral Sheets requesting an opinion on
the matter. He intimated he was not
seriously thinking Of controverting a
claim for $500 from the society, should
that be made. as there was a specific
statement by the organization that
there was that sum raised by fees di-
rect. l. appears from the ruling of the
attorney general that the society cannon
legally draw one cent from the county
treasury. Here is an extract from his
opinion as rendered to Prosecutor Day:
Article of the constitution of the
Stark County Agricultural society reads
as follows: Members of the society
must be residents of the county and
pay annually to the treasurer the sum
OF one dollar, prior to the last day oil
the preceding fair. Rule OF the'rules
and regulations provides, that, on pay.
ment Of one dollar, aLard of member-
ship and -four single admission tickets
shall be issued, but no one shall be per-
mitted to purchase membership tickets

GIRLS ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE
FOLLOWS FOOLISH PROMISE

Carrying out her part of an agree
ment for a double suicide. Essie Bur.
rell. an Is year old girl whose home
is on East Ninth street. Monday even.
ing made a determined effort to end
her life by poison and only the inter.
ference of bystanders prevented her
being successful. Gertrude Marks, a
companion, had agreed to take a part
of the same deadly dose but at the
last moment weakened and tried 10
prevent the deed.
The attempt was made about .
o'clock at the Waterworks park in
the midst of crowd of thousands
who had .congregated to listen to the
Grand Army band and was in the most
public and prominent position in the
park. right under the stand where the
band was playing. In the glare OF
the electric light. with a half dozen
of her companions knowing what she
intended to do, she raised bottle of
laudanum TO her lips, took two swal.
lows of the poison and was trying to
take more when a bystandep whose
curiosity had been aroused by the
peculiar actions of the crowd, struck
the bottle from her hands and gave
the alarm that resulted in medical
attention being promptly rendered and
her life being saved.
AS soon as it was learned that the
girl~had taken poison the patrol was
called to the park and she was taken
to the police station. There she was
met by Dr. NJ. G. Foulk5 who used
the stomach pump and administered
restoratives. The patient was soon
out of danger and removed to the
Aultman hospital where she will have
to remain for several days until fully
recovered.
The Burrell girl, Gertrude Marks
of Hiner street, Annie Alley, of 1922
Fast Eighth street, and Gusta Snyder
of Fifth street, went to the park early
in the evening to enjoy the concert.
During the day. according to the story
of the Alley girl, Miss Burrell and Miss
Marks
AGREED TO DIE TOGETHER
at the park during the evening, Miss
Burrell remarking that shei always
wanted to die to music. One of the
two during tthe day purchased an
ounce of laudanum at a down town
drug store. Miss Alley says that the
