The monitor Arkansas, which recent
ly went up the river to St. Louis to
be present during the dedication of the
exposition buildings, finds herself in
an uncomfortable position. She went
up on the crest of a spring freshet,
which gave plenty of water under
her keel. But recently the water has
fallen to such an extent that there are
sand bars between the monitor and
the ocean on which there is not more
than eleven feet. while the vessel
draws thirteen feet. Old river men say
the craft will have to stay in the up
per river until the next spring fresh
cts, unless arrangements are made to
tighten her by more than two feet by
removing guns and equipments and
Tightening them over the shallow
places.

MISS GOULD's COOKING SCHOOL

Miss Helen Miller Gould is a philan-
thropist In the true sense Of the word,
and her work is in pleasing contrast
with that of some other rich persons.
who have lately gained notoriety by
their gifts She does not seek to build
monuments to herself, but to extend
real. helpful aid to those she thinks
need assistance. One of the latest man
ifestations of her spirit and purpose
has taken the shape of free cook
ing school for poor girls near larry
town, N. Y. A two.story building on
Miss Gould's estate has been fitted up
as a model Kitchen school, a corps of
expert teachers has been employed and
the work has been inaugurated. with
out beating Of drums or blowing Of
trumpets. 1t seems nobody knew of
the young woman's purpose until she
had put it into execution. And with the
beginning of the cooking classes, Miss
Gould herself donned a big apron,
tucked up her sleeves and took a hand
in the kneading, baking and boiling
Recently, according to a floating
item, a New York man inserted two
test advertisements in the newspapers
of that city. One of them was for a
competent cook and the other for a
competent music teacher. To the first
he received less than half dozen re-
plies, while to the second the replies
numbered over 200. And, in all prob
ability that just about illustrates the
situation as respects supply and de-
mand in the matter of cooks and music
teachers. There are too few of one and
too many of the other. And yet a
good cook, one who thoroughly under
stands the business, can command much
better wages than a poor or indiffer-
ent music teacher. The high-class
cook does not have to beg employment;
there are always householders ready
and eager to snap her up" many OF
them willing and able to pay practically
her own price. 1t is Miss Goulds pur-
pose to do what she can to relieve the
shortage of good cooks, and to put
a number of poor girls, who might
otherwise be compelled to exc out a
miserable existence, in the way of Sc
curing desirable homes and earning
good incomes. Miss Gould's cooking
school, we verify believe, will bring
more happiness to the town OF larry
town than any 10 per cent. library
could.

Every time the Liberty Bell is sent
away from Philadelphia to be exhib-
ited at some exposition, the people of
that city vow they will never permit
it to be removed from the precincts
of Independence Hall again. But the
temptation to junketing with the bell
is too strong for the Philadelphia city
officials. 1t has now been decided that
the priceless old relic shall go to Bos-
ton for the Bunker Hill celebration on
June II. 1t will. of course, be escort
ed" by a select committee And then
next year it will be sent to St. Louis,
also in the escort of a select commit
tee of officials and policemen. The
junket is one of the great features of
American political life.

A CONSOLIDATED SCHOOL.

For a number of years we have adj
vocated the consolidation of country
schools where such a thing is possible,
on the ground that one good central
school in district is much better than
half dozen poor neighborhood schools.
The plan Of district consolidation has
been put into effect in several Of the
Middle and Western states, always
with gratifying results. In place of
shabby school houses. ill-kept grounds
and short terms, the consolidation is
invariably followed by the building of
a modern school house. the beautifying
of the grounds, the lengthening of the
school term and the employment of
corps of competent teachers. Thus
the bettermeat extends through the
whole SYSTEM and the pupils derive the
benefit.
During the Southern Educational
Conference in Richmond the other day
DR. TaIcott Williams dwelt especially
upon the cause of education in the
rural districts and how IT might be i'm
proved by the consolidation of neigh
He described interestingly a consolidate
ed school in a Tennessee country dis
trict that he had investigated. The
school house, a modern frame building
fitted with all the conveniences, pro-
vides accommodations for $50 pupils.
Around the building are grounds hav-
ing an area of twelve acres. In the
grounds there are a small farm, an
orchard, a vineyard, a vegetable gar
den and a flower garden. The course
of study ranges from the primary grade
to that of the high school. There is
department in which wood working is
taught to the boys, and another in
which the girls are taught cooking.
Every child from the primary grade up
has little garden patch for which 1t
is held responsible. In the field, the
orchard and the vineyard the children
are instructed in agriculture and fruit
culture. The course of instruction
therefore. gees much beyond the pro-
verbal three Rs and is invaluable IN
imparting useful information. The chill
dren take a keen interest in the farm
and garden work, with the result that
the grounds are kept in thorough order
and the school surroundings made
beautiful and attractive. Every per-
son connected with the school--patron,
teacher and pupils-feels proud Of 1t.
That is the kind of school we would
like to see planted in every district in
Georgia. OF course it is not practical
BILE to have such establishments in
every district at once. but there are
number Of them in which the CONSOLE
dated school might be set up to good
advantage. County and district trus-
tees would do well to make investi-
cations with that end in view.

Since Jan. / there have arrived in
this country 1905 immigrants from Ire
land. This is an increase of so per
cent. over the record of the correspond
ing period last year. Nearly all of
these immigrants are young persons,
men and women between the ages of
II and 25 AS fast as they have come
they have found employment many
having secured employment before sail
ing from home. That the movement
from Ireland to the United States
should be on the increase is rather
significant, in face of the fact that
there is pending in Parliament a land
bill designed to make Irish people more
content to remain in the old country.
-S~e-s-
Government paternalism seems to be
inseparable from the Philippine ad-
ministration. 1t is now proposed to
license and tag all opium eaters, with
a view to checking the vice. The idea
is to register all persons addicted to
the use of the drug and issue to each
a tag bearing name, age, residence, oc-
cupatlon and the quantity of opium
that the tag-wearer is permitted to
purchase or consume in one day The
opium business is in the hands of con-
cessionaires of the government, and
penalties are to be imposed on such
of them as may be detected selling
more opium to a tag-wearer than his
tag calls for.
