One cannot walk down the streets of

out noticing the profusion Of the vege-

local production the fruits and vege-

prices that all can use them, and the

AIEACHERs, DEGENERATION.

The National Educational Associa-
ton at it's recent convention in st.
Louis held in connection with the ex-
position adopted a declaration Of
principles" which, coming at the open

all teachers and patrons of schools.
The declaration insists that the bu-
reau of education at Washington
should be preserved in it's integrity,
and the dignity of its position main
tanned and increased. 1t should re-
cieve at the hands of our lawmakers
such recognition and such appropria-
lions as will enable it not only to en-
ploy all expert assistance necessary,
but also to publish in convenient and
disable form the results of investiga-
tons; thus making that department
of our government such a source of in
formation and advice as will be most
helpful to the people i'm conducting
their campaigns of education.
The necessity for development of
public high schools wherever they can
be supported properly is emphasized

Ace for Girls to Wed.

Governor Edwin Warf1eld, of Mary
land, has aruosed a stir among femir1-
ity by stating that "a is the proper age
at which a girl should marry. He
made the statement in addressing this
graduates of the Wilmington high
school recently, and then followed it
up with the following interview:
IF asked the age when girls should
marry 1 should say "a. That was the
age of Mrs. Warfield when I married
l was SO. l have said to my daughters
that should not give my consent to
their marrying until they arrive at that
age.
Marriage for the purpose of settling
a daughter in life is, as g. rule, a fail
ure and an unhappy one. No parent,
and especially no true and loving moths
er, will wish to push her daughter in
to matrimony before she is fully ma
tured and fitted for the grave respon-
sibilfties of married life. Young girls
just out of school are not equipped for
the ordinary household duties of wives
and for the cares and trials Of mother
hood. They should, after leaving
school, spent some time with their par
ents, giving their parents the pleasure
Of their companionship and learning
something of everyday work that will
be theirs as wives"
Evening times-Republican. [volume] (Marshalltown, Iowa) 1890-1923, 1904-09-10
EDUCATION "wHIlE YOU WAIT"

1t is a severe commentary upon the
that a peddler of fake diplomas and
fake college degrees should have accu-
mulated more than 100000 at his bus
mess. The postal authorities are now
after this man who has conducted
schools" or more properly UNIVERSE
ties in almost dozen states. Among
the institutions which he has conducted
and of which he was the whole thing
faculty, president, curators' degree
writer and all save typewriter (the de-
mands of his business were such that
he could not get along without one or
university" 1.-The Oklahoma univer-
sity," The Chattanooga College of
Law "The Nashville College of Law
1.-The Nashville college," 1.-The National
College of Law" "The American Col
lege of Law" and 1.-The Washington
university" by the use of which term
he utilized the good name of one of the
best schools of the country, The George
Washington University and The UNI
versity of Washington. More than TO-,
600 persons have received degrees
from these So called colleges. Out OF
he has received from SIS upwards.
1t is scarcely possible that the pur-
chasers Of these spurious degrees have
gained any actual advantage by their
possession. Possibly a few grafters
have thus gained present consideration
among the careless or ignorant, but the
general purchaser has tickled his own
vanity when he purchases the spurious
right to write D. D. or LII. D. after his
name. The practice of medicine ana
law is SO well protected by the various
states that diplomas and degrees even
of reputable schools mean less than
they did fifteen years ago. There has
been no specifically serious public harm
in the swindle which has netted one
CRATER fortune. 1t is akin to this
swindle recently SO successful in some
parts of the state which induced foolish
boys andfarmhands to pay $25 for mem
bership in fake detective agency. It
is time that the postal people put the
degree shark out of business, but it is
hard to work up much sincere SYM
pathy for the twenty thousand fools
who paid their money for spurious
honor
