IN what subjects do the girls in the
Salt Lake City schools excel the
boys, and IN what do the latter ex-
eel the fairer Sex?
That Is a question which has been
given some thought OF late by City
Supt Of Schools Christensen and the
principals Of the schools. There is con-
siderable difference OF opinion on the
subject. oftentmes where the girls as
majority excel In a study, boy viii
be found who is exceptionally bright In
that particular study and who viii far
outshine the leaders, and in many In.
stances a girl will be far in advance Of
the boys I'm studies In which they are
classed as the leaders That fact
makes II very difficult 10 determine
definitely which sex should be given the
credit Of supremacy,
II Is an interesting fact that for the
first three or four years. or during the
time the children are In the primary
grades, there II practically no differ
encc IN the work OF the girls and boys
In the majority OF the studies. but after
that period and all through the gram
mar grades and the high school, II is
not very difficult TO see that one or the
other Of the sexes excels In certain
studies, But often in college and high
er educational work II happens that
boys will surpass In subjects in which
the girls were leaders all through the
grammar grades and the high school.
and vice versa. II seems to be the
opinion Of the majority Of those en-
gagged In school work In the city that
the girls In our schools surpass the

err in school life the girls easily out
class the boys. This is due partly 20 the
change OF voice which takes place in
boys. which makes them self-conscious
and embarrassed and greatly retards
their progress In reading, The same
may be said In regard to music In
which study there Is no material DIFF
ference between the sexes during the
first few years. but after which the
girls take the lead. In the primary
grades the boys spell equally as well as
the girls, but In the grammar grades
the boys drop behind and the girls cas-
lily outspell them. The home training
of the girl Is responsible for her super
iorlty IN writing, In which she leads
the boys all the way through school.
At home they are taught from infancy
TO be accurate, precise and neat I'm
everything they do, hence II Is no diff
cult thing for them to surpass the boys
In work the chief attributes of which
are accuracy, precision and neatness.
The girls also lead In grammar and
hold their supremacy In that subject
until after passing the nigh school. In
college life, however and thereafter II
Is held that the boys as q whole lead
IN grammar.
1t Is conceded that the boys have a
safe lead over the girls In arithmetic,
algebra and drawing, In the first two
subjects It Ia often the case that girl
will be found who Is far In advance Of
the boys, but she Is n rare exception,

Paying Poll Taxes.

The people of Ellis county appear
to be waking up to the Importance
of paying their poll tax. Since the
10th of this month more than one
thousand receipts have been Issued,
the total number at the close of the
collectors offfce Wednesday night
being 5l64. Collector Bratcher SAYS
the agitation of the matter which
has been made through the papers
seems 10 be having the desired re-
suit. Last week blank order for a
poll tax receipt was printed in the
Enterprise, and Mr. Bratcher says
it has been the cause of q great
many voters sending for receipt.
One mail yesterday morning brought
him about fifty orders for receipts
and In addition to these city Collec-
tor Banner Of Ennis sent in orders
for about seventy-fiye receipts. 1t
should be remembered by voters
that they must procure a receipt be-
fore the office closes Saturday night
J January 30, if they expect to vote
in any election this year.

the proposition was quite animated.
AS the meeting was purely one
of pleasure and sociabilIty no def

WORK OF THE ANGRY FLAMES
Elegant Residence OF Judge NJ. B.
Templeton Totally Destroyed.

The large brick residence of Judge
NJ. B. Templeton, located in West
End, was totally destroyed by fire
last evening about 7 O'Clock, togeth-
er with all its contents.
AS soon as the fire was discovered
an alarm was turned in at the sta
tion and the departmen made a
prompt response, but on account of
no water connections IN that part of
the city the firemen were powerless
to save the house from destruction.
When the firemen saw they could
do nothing toward saving the house
they, with others, began carry
ing things out of the building, but
the rapidlty with which the flames
spread greatly retarded this work
Only a few articles were removed
from the building and they were
badly damaged. Judge Templeton
owned a valuable library which was
practically total loss. Some books
were saved but the backs were torn
::um a number of them, render lug
them almost valueless. The piano
was removed from the building be-
fore the roof fell in, but on account
of the intensity of the heat the in
strument could not be gotten far
enough away to keep it from burn
ing.
This handsome and elegantly ap-
pointed home was built six or seven
years ago at a cost of about SIC, 900.
Since then it's value has been en-
HANGED by the addition of other inn
provements. Judge Templeton had
planted a large number of trees in
the yard and lawn and fortunately
only six or seven were injured by
the flames. 1t would be difficult to
estimate the exact value of the
household. effects DESTROYED with
the building, but the amount will
not miss $4,000 very far. The value
Of all the property burned was given
in TO the insurance writers at SIG, 900
All the insurance was carried with
Connally IL Rocket The building
was insured in the National OF
Hartford for 50, 800 and policy OF
$1,000 was carried on the household
goods with the Continental Of New
York.

The sturdy Man of Japan.

THE average Jap we see In Europe
gives 10 fair idea of the physique of
his people. He 10 moro represents the
average man of his people than does
the b~oulevardier represent the french
peasant.
The average Japanese man. while
not tall, gives n the impression OF
being probably the hardest man on
earth. He lives perpetually in the
open air and IN the simplest food. His
home consists of paper screens. which
never shut the air wholly ont and are
always open a great part of the day.
He is hardy because he has been in
ured to the most extreme discomfort
since infancy. He does not know what
comfort is His home has practically
no furniture. Mating. bedding 90

wants. In a land cold beyond belief

Origin of City Plans.

All cities, with few exceptions, trace
the origin of heir plan to the lnclosed
camp, and many still show marked
features of primitive Qualifications. In

closed square vas considered the best.
From the time when wagons were
merely parked on the plain to the time
when buildings We're constructed with
blank walls to the enemy. Inc their
facades to the open square. this plan
has been universally adopted. ami
many of the great squares or market
places of great cities still show unde-
niable evidences of these precautions
for defense. In the old city Of Brus-
