The Middleburgh post. [volume] (Middleburgh, Snyder Co., Pa.) 1883-1916, 1902-09-11

Mr.. halsey seems to be much exer-
cised over what he calls the literary
nooL.. coos NJ. deluge," and be-
means the fact
"1eren'' that in England
and America over 1000 books are
published every year, and that of this
number not ten per cent. remains
even as a memory at the end of IL
months. But what of this? perti
nently asks Roswell Field, in the Chi
cago Post, Why complain of del
uge of books, when nothing in the
constitution or the state laws com
pels anybody to read them? Book
publishing is useful and legitimate
industry. 1t stimulates the paper
trade, gives steady employment to
large force of printers, prooereaders,
pressmen and binders, and encour--
ages artists and illustrators. More
than this, it gives n grett many peo-
pie excellent practice in English COM
position, of which most of them APP
pear to be deplorably in need, and
serves other useful and laudable
ends. OF the 200 books there must
be at least IL which are really worth
while, and we have known the num-
Der to rise to Is in single year.
Let us have as many books as pos
siLle. Three minutes intelligent study
will tell Ms whether any book is
worth more time. DR.. johnson had
the correct idea when he said: You
don't read your books through, do
you?" 1t would seem that Mr.. Hal
sey is one of these painfully conscien-
tious gentlemen who think that they
must toll painfully through every
page, because it is book. If that
is his view, no wonder he complains
of a "deluge" when wiser man mere
ly regards it gentle shower from
which he may protect himself if he
wishes.

system and has suggested practical
methods of eliminating evils. The
teaching of elementary science in the
grammar and high schools is due to
his recommendations. He believes
that it is the duty of every educator
to make American education of every
grade better, and it is due largely to
his criticisms and directions that pub
lie education has been organized upon
a wiser and better basis. His ideas
have resulted in increased respect for
the teaching profession, less unneces-
sary labor for the student and have
saved the people much unwise expend-
iture.
And it is in President Eliot's relation
to public education that we touch the
keynote of his career. In reality the
success of his administration lies in
the fact that he has kept himself and
the university in vital touch with the
community. He has coordinated it
with the other social, commercial and
educational forces of the time. He
has made it university for the men
who are to rule affairs.
Perhaps President Eliot's most con-
spicuous work has been the introduce
tion Of the elective system, a subject
which he discusses in nearly every one
OF his reports. According to his views
on the subject, this system will pro-
mote concentration, individuality and
equip each man to make the largest
contribution to the betterment of the
race. It's chief aim is to adjust col
lege education to at once the practical
and the higher life.
His reforms have all been rooted in
principles and purposes which are es-
sentially moral and religious. He has
gone the whole length of the educa-
tional line, condemning every defect
and rebuking every form of ineffi-
cheney as an injury to the community
and crime against the individual OF
university he says that it should be
its principal function to train leaders
men who have the originating pow
er, who reach forward in all fields of
activity and push beyond the beaten
paths Of habit, tradition and custom.
The National Educational associa-
tion has ch osen for It's presidents man
who stands for the highest ideals and
new and progressive methods In eGu-
cational reform. In truth, n man Of
light and leading" who stands for
the advancement Of real knowledge in
contrast to mere education.

SILK WORM CULTURE.
Many Sections of the United states,

Bulletin No. Isl, of the Raleigh (N.
CD experiment station gives a con-
densed history of the culture of the
silk worm, with interesting facts
about the business as now carried on
in North Carolina. Silk worms were
domesticated in China about :7CO b.
c., and that country is still the great
est producer, Italy, Japan, India and
France following. In 1771 this in
dustry was taken up in New York,
New Jersey and Pennsylvania. and in
1920 it was introduced into the CEN
tral west. The government issued a
manual Of silk growing in 1926, and
the business became popular along
the Atlantic coast. an extensive bust
ness being done in the sale of null
berry trees at high prices by nursery
men as food for silk worms. A Sc
we're frost in lS41 killed nearly all of
these trees. thus practically wiping
out the silk business in the north.
There are, however, suitable varieties
of mulberries that will stand north

porary foods, such as satisfy, lettuce,
cultivated hemp and some of the
legumes. The United States is the

that there are at least $4,000 fam

FUTURE OF PHILIPPINES
Gov. Taft Says United States viii Edu.
cate Natives For SeIf-Government,

Manila. Sept. l.-Governor Taft was
given a banquet by the American
Chamber of Commerce of Manila last
Saturday night. In an address. reply.
ing to toast, the governor discussed
the future of the Philippines He said
the United States would retain the
islands indefinitely. with the view OF
educating the Filipinos to a state of
self-government and other conditions
which would enable them to decide
whether they desired to become inde-
pendent or be made into a state like
Canada or Australia under Great Bri-
tain. Governor Taft said ne believed
the relationship between the two peo.
pies would be continued, and that the
Americans were here for the benefit
OF the Filipinos. He said the Ameri.
cans did not desire the islands for
selfish purposes. and promised that
American capital would get fair treat
ment here.
Continuing, the governor expressed
his belief that commercial interests
must ultimately rely upon Filipino la
Dor, although temporary relaxation
of the immigration restrictions was
possible. He said that United States
civil commission would again recon-
mend congress to give the Philippine
Islands gold standard of currency,
as the present fuctuating silver stand
ard was n disadvantage to everybody.

drunkenness the other, day when the
farmer who had him arrested said:
Don't send him to Jail, Judge; let

A report by one of the United

government sorts the apples and
stamps the grade upon the box

AN IDEAL EDUCATOR.
Charles w. Eliot, President of Har-
: ward University.
One of His Grn ndest Achle emen In Is
the Introduction of the Elec-
tive system In American
Seats Of Learning.

Charles W. Eliot, of Harvard uni
versity, who has recently been elected
president of the National Educational
association has,for 80 critical years
been the prime minister of our educa"
tioIal realm. He was born in Boston
in 1884, and his preparatory educa-
tion was acquired at the Latin school
in that city. Graduating from Har-
ward with the class of '53. he became a
tutor in mathematics in the university,
and later assistant professor in math-
ematics and chemistry. Being APP
pointed to the chaid of analytical
chemistry at the Massachusetts lnsti-
tute of Technology, he served until he
began his official life as president of
Harvard in 90. He regards the ad
ministration of a university as busi-
ness. He is not, as are many edu-
and secondly an administrator. He
illustrates the fact of making such
presidency business. President Eliot
brought to his work a vigorous and
impulsive personality, distinguished
alike for moral and intellectual quail
ties. Some one has said that the nor
nal man is two-thirds will and one
third intellect Perhaps the two quail
tiles possessed by DR.. Eliot which have
done much to make all things possible
to him in the line of his endeavor are
the wonderful strength of his will and
his absolute fearlessness.
The relations which university
president holds are probably more nu-
merous and more important than
those held by the average public Off
Ger. He holds relation to the stu
dents, the faculty, the various gov
erning boards, the preparatory
schools, and, more important still, to
the community at large.
President Eliot has put himself in
close relation with the commonwealth
of Massachusetts and he has closely
identified himself with their system of
public school instruction. He has
pointed out serious defects in the

into the box, the upper edges of the

one inch from the top of the box, the
lower middle of the tin not to go

a piece of wire netting for strainer.
The tin should not be nailed into the
