Prof. of Greek, Latin and Matthew
atics.

Prof. of Greek, Latin and Matthew
atics.
Mai. j. P. B. Allan, first assist
ant in our City High School and
Training School, will arrive from
Atlanta Saturday, the 23rd inst.
He comes to us with the very
highest Endorsements both as to
character and attachments, and we
have abundant evidence that he is
keen, vigorous character, a man
who achieves results. He was
graduated from the University of
Georgia IN both the literary and
military departments, in addition
to which, he has done two years OF
non-residential work in the Univer-
sity of Chicago. He is a specialist
in the teaching of Latin, Greek and
Mathematics, having taught these
subjects with marked success for a
number of years IN South Kentucky
College, Hopkinsville. He is an
able man. His varied attainments
and broad experience fit him SUI
perbly for the place he is to fill.
With Maj. Allan is closely asso-
ciated one of the most pleasing
features in contemplation for our
new school-the military training
provided for the pupils during GER
tain parts of the daily programme.
These drills include both girls and
f,oys. Suitable uniforms will be
provided; the regular U. S. cadets
uniform for the boys of course,
and for the girls we are promised
something equally charming. The
Importance of this training appeals
to every parent who has a girl or
boy to educate. Arguments and
apologies are not needed IN its be-
half, for we feel that the most I'M
thinking person cannot fail to ap-
preciate the value of such exercises.
Maj. Allan will be accompanied
by his wife, whom we refuse to con-
slider quite a stranger, since she is
a native of our own state. She is
an accomplished vocalist, a gradu-
ate from the New England Conserv-
atory of Music. This culture has
been supplemented by an experience
of several years as instructor and
choir soloist in St. Paul's, Louis
vile, which has gained for her more
than provincial fame.
We owe Atlanta unmeasured
thanks for sending us two such
cultured, useful citizens as we are
anticipating in Maj. and Mrs. AL
Ian; they are an acquisition to our
city of which we are duly aPPreci-
ative. We welcome them heartily
to field where their influence will
tell in molding educational thought.

weeks for, as a rule, the popular class
of ditties known as summer songs live up
10 the old Bohemian motto of "A short life
and a merry one, and their existence is
usually to be counted in weeks. sometimes
months-never years. If one of these pieces
wins the approval of the variety show
singers who work during the summer time
and most of 'em do work in these days of
roof gardens. trolley parks theaters and
seaside music halls-it is simply sung TO
death in less time than il required to write
and compose the thing. Why the members
OF the 'prOfesh' insist upon an organized
assault upon a certain song, as it were, all
of them singing that one overworked ditty.
while they allow other songs just as good
TO be shelved. is a mystery that cannot be
explained. For Instance, take the waltz

of Bret Harte, their ways are peculiar, but,
despite all of their apparent indifference to
affectionate demonstrations on the part of
their owners, and their many other eccen-
%tricities, cats nav always been, and prob
ably will always be. the most popular Of
domestic animals. Indianapolis boasts a
number of cats that are kings in their own
precincts; cats that, through some unusual
display of intelligence, have won a place
for themselves in the hearts of their mas
tiers or mistresses as well as a happy home
for life.
But it is in the business portion of the
city-especially the wholesale district
rather than at the domestic hreside, that
cats are most appreciated, for here it is
that a cat Of ability and ambition may
meet with opportunities TO win distinction
such as can never fall to the lot of the
feline that makes his home in the residence

grocery or drug store in indianapolis that
does not include a cat, sometimes two or

NEWSPAPER ERRORS.

Newspapers are often criticised for

ofaces where every department has an
expert in every line The editorial
writer looks after his department, the
city editor his department. the tele-
graph editor his department. the man
aging editor then looks after 1t all
except the proof reader. who holds the
responsibility over all as TO typo
graphical errors. and yet errors occur
and in an eff1ce where one or two
cover the whole field IT is no wonder
that errors sometimes occur. The edi-
tor is as quick TO see these errors
