The present commencement sea-
son, during which the work of uni
versities, colleges and schools of all
grades is passing in review, empha-
sizes the great progress this country
has made, and is still making, in
the intellectual training of its youth
of both sexes. From all parts of
the country come reports of the
graduation of classes of unusual
size, the announcement of munifi-
cent gifts for broadening and ex-
tending the work of the institutions
and evidence of the great and ever
increasing demand for men of
ability to manage or to teach. The
salaries offered young men and
women capable of filling positions
as educators are larger than ever,
and there is a more general recog-
milton of the value of the services
of the college-trained man in the
commercial and industrial world.
1t is the claim of American edu-
Gators of the present day that they
are making the training eminently
practical; that they are gradually
eliminating the features once viewed
as important but now considered
unnecessary. This does not mean
that the training is any less thor
ough, but that it has a more direct
bearing upon the future work of
the student Along this line, as
along many other lines, American
education is making notable pro-
gress, and this advance bodies we'll
for the future of the entire country.

CHARGE OF THE LIGHT BRIGADE
Capt. Williamson to Take Them up
Against the Real Thing Next
Wednesday Evening.

The damp weather has been breed
ing ambition germs in the system OF
number of young Tapkaow athletes.
1t is the sort of ambition that dulls
the Judgment and leaves the afflicted
with the belief that they can do
strange things This germ is directly
responsible for the bowling match ar
ranged on the Tapkaow Club alleys for
next Wednesday evening between the
Scrubs" and the Regulars. OF
course there wont be anything left of
the Scrubs, but they really think
they have chance against the men
whose pictures have been in the paper.
Its ladies' night too, and many of the
dear girls have promised to grace the
occasion by their presence. The gen
tlemen in search of undying fame are

One of the most expert yachtsmen

One of the most expert yachtsmen
alleges that predictions as to the
relative sailing qualities of the yachts
will not be determined until the ser
les of races has been begun. To the
lay mind this is one of the most in
telligible statements yet made on
the subject, but will have no effect
on the man who learned to handle
yacht from a book He will con-
tinue to predict.

animals but the conveyances as
we'll. 1t wouldn't be bad idea to
have some sort of an examination
occasionally, but why confne it to

Committees From Two Counties In
spect Institution and Approve of 1t.
Especial to The Chronicle.l
The authorities at the State Hos
pital have been busy this week enter
tanning committees from Boards of
Freeholders. On Tuesday, almost the
entire membership of the Bergen
county board visited the institution
and they brought along amodest num-
Der of friends. They visited the
various wards and found that patients
from their county were receiving the
best of care and attention. The
visitors complimented both Warden
Everett and Medical Director Evans,
upon the appearance of the institution
as well as upon the progress patients
were making toward improvement.
Then the visitors were entertained at
luncheon and this added to the good
impression of the place.
On Wednesday one hundred and
twenty-five freeholders and their
friends from Passaic county put in
their appearance. The experiences of
the Passaic visitors were much the
same as those of their Bergen brethren.
They, too, found everything in apple
pie order and found a contented lot of
patients. The visitors brought with
them Editor Simmonds, who perpe-
trated an interesting speech, during
which he complimented the officials
of the hospital. DR.. Evans, who is
used to this sort of thing, unloaded
one of his stereotyped acknowledge
ments, and the visitors bundled them
selves into their special train and
made up their minds to come again
next year. DR.. Evans declined to per-
NIT others than Freeholders to inspect
as he did not believe in making his
patients the subject of idle curiosity.
His stand is approved by everyone.

Editor Of The Daily Record:

Editor OF The Daily Record
Dear Sir:-The abusive article
which appeared in the Morris
County Chronicle of last week,
attacking the character and stand
ing of the hackmen of the town, IS
one that should not be passed over
in silence. While apparently 1t IS
an attack on those few hackmen
who. it claims, are blatant, noisy.
irresponsible, often drunk and
always fresh" it is in reality an
uncalled for onslaught Oh law
abiding and respectable class OF
men, who are engaged in business
that requires both experience and
CAPITAL to follow. Many hundreds
of dollars are invested in hacks and
horses by those men whose sphere
in life is not elevated, except IN
physical sense, and their turn
outs are superior to any along the
line of the D. L. and w. Railroad.
The animus of the article is shown
when the writer says: There are
times when some members OF the
fraternity are entitled to be con.
sidered almost human. " Yes, ana
there are times when some OF the
patrons of the humble lnstitu-
ton" are not human but beastly IN
their appetites, causing much an
noyance, expense and vexatlon to
the hackmen Perhaps this should
be considered by the writer OF the
editorial. 1t would be equally I'M
fair to editors as class to abuse
ali because one of them should
sometimes fall and cause trouble
as to abuse all cabmen because of
the faults of one. The attack was
wanton one, and coming as it did
from a comparative stranger IN
town against we'll known and long
residenters, it will not have the
effect intended.
A HACKMAN
The Chronicle cheerfully re-
produces the above, and will with
equal cheerfulness endorse much
that it contains. The great ma
iority of Morristown hackman not
only have the confidence OF their
patrons but occupy a place in the
business life of this city which they
fill with credit. This majority
should take steps to protect them
selves from the atmosphere cast
about them by the acts OF noisy,
impairment minority, for it is a
fact that the good name OF the
drivers as a class will suffer from
the acts of the few. The hack
drivers are under the supervision
of certain town officials, and their
conduct is subjected to certain
restrictions which no other class OF
business men in the community is
put under. Have the drivers ever
asked themselves why this is sol
The physical safety and mental
comfort of patrons are in the pos
session of the men they employ.
Complaints against drivers are not
unknown, nor even uncommon.
1t is fact, though, that a great
many people would rather put up
with temporary mental discomfort
from a driver than to take the
trouble to make complaint to
the authorities and undergo the
inconvenience and annoyance
which would follow. AS for the
effect intended, that has already
been accomplished by bringing
home to all the hackmen, a realiz-
ing sense of the effect of the acts
of some Of their number.
