stIII Wearlna straw Hats.

Though the bells ringing in straw
hats were tolled two weeks ago there
are some who still persist in wearing
the comfortable headpieces. These cit
izens have braved criticism for COM
fort and those who keep pace with
style envy their nerve.
It seems strange that in Philadelphia
where the dictates Of style are follow
ed more closely than in Wilmington
straw hats are worn considerably later
IN the season than in Wilmington.
Hundreds OF straws can be seen in the
Quaker City even at this late day and
seems TO notice them or make
any comment.

A PUBLIC LEcruRE COURSE.

nNcE a year we call the attention
~ OF the Board Of Education to an
opportunity for general education
which in this city is neglected. AS an
incident OF public education many pro-
gressive school boards have provided
free lecture courses FOR the parents and
others; and wherever the plan has been
tried It has been surprisingly success
full In the city OF New York where
every kind of diversion may be had,
these lecture centers have had to be
multiplied at the great demand Of the
public.
1t is well to keep all the people in
touch with the events Of contemporan-
eous Interest," In education, art, politics,
and literature; and these subjects may
be treated by experts at trinlng cost
There Is an auditorium in the high
school building that could be used for
this purpose. and a number Of interest
ing programs could be arranged with
out expense.
For instance, wouldn't Il be profit
able il some Of our educators would
spend an evening In telling parents
about the aims and objects in the work
of the public schools in this city? Then
wouldn't we all like TO hear some ex-
pert tell us about proper sanitation for
our homes and for the city? AS mat
ter OF diversion some expert might tell
us about the causes OF the war between
Russian and Japan. and give us an IN
sight into the strategy employed
These and a dozen other important
themes might be discussed TO the edl-
hcation Of our people; and II necessary
they could be handled by experts who
reside In our city We should like to
hear what our readers thing about It..

While this is true is it not also true
that some varieties of oats and wheat
did vastly better than other varieties
both in yield and quality. both being
subjected to the same atmospheric con.
ditions.
1t is not just barely possible that
these same varieties would maintain
their lead under more favorable con-
ditions? If this be true, it is to the
interest of every farmer to know what
these varieties are, and who has them,
40 let every farmer who has any wheat
or oats that he thinks is reasonably
good for this year, or is better than
that of his neighbors, prepare a bushel
in good condition and enter it in this
contest. There are several varieties
Of oats grown in the county some of
which believe to be reasonably good,
and among these if the better shall be-
come known and the poorer varieties
replaced by tho better, doubt not, but
that the yield per acre throughout the
county could be increased at least five
bushels per acre. -
We would be pleased to have every
farmer in the county interested in this
matter, and we believe, as result. a
richer harvest would be had in the
years to come.

SUPT. NASH WILL Be THERE.
Supt. of Schools Will Address
Nat. Educational Society.

State Superintendent Nash, shortly
after taking charge of the affairs of his
department, began the work of finding
out what states in the Union exchang.
ed teachers certificates with one
another, or special states. This move
on his part started discussion of the
subject among the educators Of the
country, and as result of this he has
been selected as one of the six state
superintendents of education, to read
papers before the meeting of the Ma
tional Educational association, which
meets at Atlanta, February % to 25.
The subject of the paper which he will
present is on recognition of certificates
and diplomas granted by state and
county authorities, and state educa-
tional institutions
The other state superintendent
who are on the program are William
H. Sheats, of Florida;J Y. Jaynes, of
North Carolina; Delos Fall of Michi-
gan; Charles F. Carey OF Wisconsin;
and Charles R Skinner Of New York.

Progress VS.. =. Prejudice.

| hev. LII. Morgan DIX, pastor OF Irln-
ity church, New York, in an interview
upon subject which seems to be caus.
ing him much trouble, viz, woman" is
reported to have said:
Il am sick at heart over the women.
Man used to regard woman with such
reverence. When was boy all boys
of generous spirit looked up to her. In
these days the women have come down
to our level, they were womanly and
now they are ceasing to be. Nova
days they talk like men and do all
things that men do. If there is any.
thing that men despise it is a manish
woman. All this comes from leaving
the womanly things of life and invad.:
ing the sphere of men. 2 Woman should
never vote or be doctors, lawyers i or5
