A Specialists Opinion.

According to report from Consul
General Guenther at Frankfort, Ger
many Dr. Dornblueth of that city, a
specialist in nervous diseases con-
dennis the practise of holding after
noon sessions in the public schools. In
yestigations among 10000 school chill
dren, by a distinguished expert In
school hygiene showed that twice as
many sick were found among those at
tending two sessions daily as among
those who attended in the forenoon
only. DIR. Dornblueth advocates a five
hour forenoon session with rest OF
Is minutes at the end of each hour.
He holds that afternoon study eX-
hausts the vitality of children. dis
turbs digestion and tires their brains
and declares that the afternoon
should be given to play, outdoor exer-
else and physical training.
Here is an opinion worthy of con-
sideration and one which may have
some bearing on results which the
public schools are accomplishing as
well as upon the increasing prev
alence of nervous disorders. But how
the schools will ever be able to get
through the work they are expected to
do. giving attention to all the
details of physical, mental and NOR
al child culture required of them, in
any less time than they now employ
it is hard to see. Every year some
thing more and different is demanded
in spite of the evident fact that more
is now attempted than our children
manage to accomplish fairly well.
Would not a better knowledge OF
fewer things, with healthier bodies
and stronger nerves be wiser plan
for our children than the present one?
There should be reforms in the Amer
lean child life. both in home ana
school.

No Monopoly of Hardship.
IMorrisyille News.

Prompted by the report of one OF
the presiding elders of the Vermont
conference. a state exchange draws
a pathetic editorial picture OF the
hardships and self-denial of the av-
erage country minister. While me
picture presumably is not overdrawn,
the exchange is reminded that no pro-
fession or occupation has monopiy OF
hardship and self-denial. Nine out
of ten men and women met anywhere
TO the discerning eye disclose their
wears of struggling against the odds
of life. Only a very few, have the
easy time of it," To take up ones
abode in Easy street" is a desire uni
versal. even if skeletons fill the
closets and spectres stare in at the
windows of the houses in that par
ticular residential section. but not one
in a thousand ever gets there. In the
wisdom of the Creator the world OF
progress is a world of sacrifice where-
in the read winning is done through
the very hardship and self-deniai
against which the plant is made.

Tn. Doubtful" Line Dangerous.

"If It is justifiable to hang a MUIR

ance is uncertain than 1t Is TO put
him into prison for life, '-Brattieporo
Reformer. -,
Does this follow as a strictly logi-
cal sequence? Only sane persons can
violate law and hence only sane
persons should be punished. AT the
same time even If they are not morai-
ly guilty of violating law, the conse-
uuences of similar acts or insane
nersons are no less injurious to socie-
~ and society has right to demand
protection from them. When society
is in doubt as to whether an onender
from whom 1t seeks such protection

the probability of the latter, 1t mani
testify resorts to confinement Tor IRE
in a state prison as humane expedi-
ency that protects it from the crimi-
nally insane with no more duress TO
the offender than would befall him IN
an asylum-St. Adams Messenger.
If there is reasonable doubt as to
the mental responsibility of person
accused of crime, then 1t is manifest
" unjust not only to hang him FOR
murder which may be proved against
him but to put him in states prison
for life along with actual criminals
If his case is one which leans tow
ard the probability of mental ire
sponsibility" then the insane asylum
is the place for him. for he has a
right to the chance for cure, under
proper treatment. If he is not sane,
he is not guilty and the law presup-
poses innocence until guilt is prov
en-.
Because among criminals there are
so many who are eccentric, of abnor-
NAL tendencies and depraved tastes
who would most certainly come close
to the doubtful line Of mental respon-
sibnity where even experts disagree, 1t
seems unwise and unsafe to attempt
to draw this line in criminal trials
Where definite symptoms of mental
disorder appear, the way of course
is clear. But we believe the doubt

burn buildings and that leniency tow
ard them tends to relax self-restraint
among others of weak will and evil
impulse.
Uncertain indeterminate mental re-
sponsibility should not constitute
reasonable doubt Of guilt 1t Is too
common. 1t should not be considered,
at all. But where there is some DELI
mite, tangible evidence of mental dis
ease or disorder on the part OF
person committing crime, 1t should
be the first thing investigated and es-
tablished. 1t should not be left. as 1t
has been left in the case of Mrs. ROC
ers, until the work of the judiciary
must be set aside and public confl-
dence in legal justice weakened, IN
order to determine it. 1t should be the
first point for counsel for the accused
to consider and definitely decide up
on.
The doubtful line is dangerous,
About it cluster all sorts of cranks,
freaks and willy shammers. They
should not be encouraged.

The Vergennes Enterprise thinks
there is no use in advertising YER
mont attractions in Vermont newspa-
pers because it will do no good with
a public situated without the state.
where our papers do not circulate
But Vermont newspapers do circulate
without the state. The best OF our
state weeklies have subscribers in all
the large cities of New England. in
New York, Chicago and scattered all
over the country. These newspapers
are able enough to hold their read
ers by stronger attractions than that
of mere curiosity for home news,
and people who go away from
the field of publication take the paper
and continue to take it after local ac-
simultaneously has ceased. And it is
to these papers that people in dis
tant cities would turn first for clue
to satisfactory summer quarters or
permanent homes.

President Roosevelt spoke upon his
we'll worn theme of good citizenship
TO the Colorado ranchmen in the
little blue schoolhouse" Sunday. He
reiterated the need of morality in
man, of industry and a love for home
and country. He emphasized the fact
that the human spirit which braves
hardship and told without bitterness
or complaint is the chief quality
which makes the American nation
great It has been said that the
president likes to preach and that the
people like to hear him. The latter Is
Mainly evident: but 1t is likely that
the president speaks so insistently
and persistently upon these individual
moral needs because he realizes, as
many sother thoughtful citizens do,
that here lies the most serious lack
of a people whose opportunities ana
capabilities are of the greatest. He
may also realize that he can speak
and command attention and respect
on this subject, by virtue of his high
office. as no other man cam the
presidents preaching" is needed ana
will probably do the country as much
good as his executive acts. with eff
