Bad Spelling and Public Schools.

In connection with the methods and
results of present day teaching it is a
matter Of common remark among
elderly persons how few good spoilers
there are. In former times, before
public schools attempted TO teach a
little Of everything, good spelling was
regarded as a necessary part Of COM
mon school education, and was taught
Systematically and thoroughly. Now
it is either taught by some n~ew-fangled
method that does not produce good
results OF it is neglected in favor of
some modern fad. The result is that
there are more good spoilers among
the graduates of the country and
town schools Of forty or fifty years ago
than there are among those Of the
deliberately organized and extensively
conducted high schools OF today. 1t
would be interesting to know IL there
has been a similar decadence inknowl-
edge of other common branches.

President Butler, Of Columbia COL
Flege,, recently delivered an address on
the subject Of the American college
in which he. deplored the fact that
while a vast amount of money was be-
ing expended in building up American
educational institutions at the present
time, the of general education
was not receiving much benefit there
by, as only the rich could afford to
send their children TO these schools.
They were becoming principally club
houses for the rich.
This is all too true. The young man
or the young woman Of intelligence,
who are eager to get an education for
what an education is worth to them
are really blocked out of our big COL
leges. If they should happen to be in
circumstances that prevents them
from paying the exOrbitant tuition
fees exacued by most of the institu-
tions OF learning of the present time.
How much more consistent it would
be ASA direct help to those who are
anxious TO get real educations ii our
philanthropic college builders would
use some Of their surplus wealth in
founding scholarships, or making pro-
vision for tie poor and capable stu
dents to procure a good education.
As in the case OF building fine
churches without much religion in
them, so is it the tendency of modern
times to build colleges without much
education in them. A few -lIllions
spent in sending worthy young people
without mean to a good university
for the purpose of obtaining a thor
ough education will be put to better
u.e than in constructing massive
buildings where only the rich can af-
ford to attand: where the curriculum
consists. largely OF sports and fads
that do no real service in the way of
improving the mind or morals of the
Young. The American college, like
The American church is drifting to-

Indians Are Hard to Tame.

Major Pratt, the United States
army officer who is In charge Of the
Carlisle Indian school, admits that
many of his graduates who return to
tribal life fall into Indian ways again.
Therefore he is doing all he can to pre-
vent the educated Indians from going
back to the reservations.
He tells of an incident he saw at a
Western Indian agency. A squaw en-
tered-a traders store, wrapped in a
blanket, pointed at a straw hat and
asked: Elbow muehee:,'
Fifty cents" said the merchant.
"How muchee?" she asked again,
pointing at another article. The price
was quoted, and was followed by an
other4query of "How muchee?"
Then she suddenly gszed- blandly at
the merchant and asked, mildly:
lido you not regard such prices as
sxeortionzte for articles of such palpab-
ly and Enthusiastically inferior quality?
Do you net really believe that a re-
,duction in your charges would mater

The Passion Pray. rr !.
Under the auspices Of the Marshall
Counay Teachers association, which
was in annual session in this city last
Friday and Saturday, a representa-
ton by moving pictures upon canvas
of the famous Passion Play" was
given at the Washington school build
ing. This m~iracle-play is acted every
ten years by the people of Oberam-
mergau, a village in Bavaria, near
Munich, and represents the different
scenes in the passion of Christ. 1t has
attracted worldwide reputation, not
only because of its exceedingly sacred
nature, but also because of the faith
full portrayalS Of the characters and
the remarkable likeness Of the actors,
both by nature AID disposition, to the
sacred characters they personify. At
tempts have been made to produce
the play In this country. but they
have been failures. With the people
OF Oberammergau, however, the Pas
sion Play is conducted as a religious
service, and not with a view of pecun-
larry profit,
The reproduction of this play upon
canvas by Prof. and Mrs. Bowden gave
d vivid pic -ure of what the original
must be. The moving pictures gave
views of scenery and notable cities
with their public buildings enroute.
finally arriving at the little Bavarian
village where the lecturer described
the habits of the. people who with
such unequaled aptitude have for SO
MANY years performed this remark
able religious play. The characters
for the various parts had, the lecturer
said, grown into their parts from years
OF thought and practice. The spirit
of the play had become a part Of their
lives. IL was the ambition Of every
girl TO be a Madonna, and the highest
ideal Of the boy was to be a Christus.
So 1T was. that the dramatis personae,
as presented on canvas, correspond
closely With ones conception of those
characters. Thus, the man who rep
resented John was so closely akin to
the ideal that n would recognize in
him the beloved disciple:" while the
high priest, Judas, the holy mother,
and all the array of characters could
be recognized by their close resemb-
lance.
The occasion was a rare event for
Plymouth, and for its production the
people are indebted to the county
teachers association, through its OFF,
GERS. This association has set the in.
ltial for what should be a popular lee
ture and entertainment course. The
auditoriumS of the two school build
ing are we'll adapted for such purposes.
and the generosity and public spirit
of the school board in providing for
the unequaled entertainment of Fri
day night could only be surpassed by a
further extension OF the privilege OF
these auditoriumS, from time TO time,
for entertainments of a kindred ma
ture.
The Mozart club deserves especial
mention for its fine rendition of Selec-
tions in harmony with the spirit Of the
entertainment.
