Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1906-07-08
CORELLI ON THE NEED OF
TEACHING PEOPLE TO READ

do not know how to read. Moreover, it
is very difficult to make them learn. They
have neither the skill nor the patience to
study beautiful thoughts expressed in beau
uful language. They want to rush" some
thing through Whether poem. play or
novel 1t must be rushed through and
done with. No authors book can be sure
of an honest and unprecedented reading
either by those whose business it is TO re-
view 1t for the press or those whose pleas
ure 1t Is to skim" it for themselves. They
have no time They have time for mo-
toring, cycling, card playing, racing. bet
ting, tennis and croquet-anything in short,
which does not directly appeal 10 the in
tellectual faculties-but for real reading
they can neither make leisure nor acquire
aptitude.
This vague sievelke quality of brain and
general mental inability to comprehend or
retain impressions of character or events
which Is becoming so common among mod
ern so-called readers of books can but
make things very difficult for authors who
honestly seek to contribute something of
their utmost best TO the world of literature
Most men and women who feel the ''di-
vine aftiatus' and who are able to write in
a style above the average must be con-
scious of desire to rise yet higher than
any of their own attempted efforts and to
do something new, strong and true enough
to hold life and lasting in 1t when other

more than perhaps twenty pages of its con-
tents.
To read. as I take it, means to sit down
quietly and enjoy q book in Its every line
and expression. Whether it be tragic or
humorous. simple ornate, 1t has been
written to beguile us from our daily routine
of life and TO give us a little change OF
thought mood. It may please us. or 1t
may make sad; it may even anger us
dieting US our own lines of argument.
but if 1t has taken away for time from
ourselves 1t has fulfilled the greater part
of its mission and done us a good turn.
Those who have really learned to read are
no encouragers of the free library craze.
The true lover of books will never want TO
peruse volumes that are thumbed and
soiled by hundreds of other hands; he or
she will manage to buy them and keep
them friends in the private household.
Any book. save the most expensive editions
de luxe, can be purchased for few shill-
ings-a little saving on drugged beer and
useless fnery would enable the ordinary
mechanic to stock himself with a very
decent library of his own. To borrow ones
mental fare from free libraries is a dirty
habit to begin with. 1t is rather like pick
ing up eatables dropped by some one else
in the road and making ones dinner off
another's leavings. One book clean and
fresh from the booksellers counter is worth
half a dozen of the soled and messy
knockabo bout volumes which our medical men
widely fingered pages Free libraries are
undoubtedly very useful resorts fro bet
ting men. They can run in, glance at the
latest sporting items and run out again.
But why taxpayers should support such
houses of call for these gentry remains a

sons a wind from the northeast is steady
and strong from at least wenty-ive de
grees north latitude for fully one thousand
miles southwark. The expedition of ROtci
and De Bort appears to have differei in its
methods from that of the Prince of Monaco
In the more general use of "ballous
sondes, which rose to great heights. and
by their line of drift Indicated the direction
of the atmospheric current at different
attitudes Kites also were used but IN the
trade wind region no great hei snt can be
reached by their agency.
The northwesterly current was found to
be drier and more rapid than the main
uortheaSterly current, and there was al
ways a quick rise of temperature as soon
the level of the anti-trade was reached.
This phenomenon of temperature inversion
is one of the most interesting TO be met
with in atmospheric exploration. To give
a single example. On one occasion. with
a temperature of seventy degrees just above
feet, was found to have a temperature as
high as eighty-siX degrees Fahrenheit For

lies right in the track of the southeast
trades. That island has long been tho
scene of great scientific activity. and there
observations OF the upper clouds show. as
we should expect, the existence of a steady
upper current from the northwest. Our ter
restrial atmosphere is never at rest, ard
the problem of the general atmospheric
circulation is Il complex one, and one that
has been the object of much acute theoIeti
cal analysis.

contemporary work is forgotten. 1t Is the
craving of the sick eagle looking at the
sky perhaps. nevertheless 1t is a noble
craving. In taking an aim at 1t Is well
to let fly at the moon. even If one only
hits tree. But when fiery-footed Pegasus
would fam gallop away with It's rider into
the realms of imagination and enchautment
when the aspiring disciple of literature, all
agtow with freshness and fervor strives
to catch some new spirit of thought as Il
rushes past on Its swift wings or seeks to
create some fair consoIing iIyl OF human
circumstance, then all the publishers stand
massed In the way and cry, Halt" Don't
let US have any great tdeas.'" they say.
They are above the heads of the public!
Be domestic, be matrimoniousIy Ubiquitous

Don't give up new things to think about
the public have no time to think What
they want Is just something to glance at
between tea and dinner"
Now, this condition OF affairs which is
SO positively disastrous to all literary art
is entirely brought about by the lack of the
one vital point in the modern education of
the British and American people-namely.
that they have not been taught how to
read. AS a result of this they frequently

WOMAN GUARDED TREASURY.
And Filipino Outlaws Didn't Attack
the Building.


Malolos Cor. Manila American.
When the followers Of Salvador raided
Malolos Sunday night they avoided the
treasury building, and well they might, for
seven Americans well armed, stood guard
and not the last among them was Mrs
Goodheart. a plucky American woman, who
armed herself and stood prepared to Join
in the defense Of the building should the
outlaws covet the provincial funds.
The town of Malolos Province Of Buia-
can. was taken by surprise last night by
band OF ladrones, probably part of villa
forte's gang of ladrones 1t was certainly
a bold and daring deed TO perform, espe-
cially in the capital of a province. At about
pm they entered the town from the
western quarter. apparently unarmed, but
It turned out that they Were armed and
ready for a good fight if necessary. The
first thing that they did was to bolo the
sentry and take his gun and ammunition
from him. Then the gang of about twenty
men rushed the Quartet. and had a hand-to-
hand fight with the few that were below.
1t was an easy matter to overcome them
Then they rushed on upstairs and quickly
captured the guns. which were about
twenty-five in number, with about twenty
belts Of ammunition. Next a short hight
took place which lasted for about twenty
minutes. The killed and wounded are con-
stabulary. two killed and two wounded Sc
riously and some wounded slightly.
The treasury was quickly guarded by
about six or seven Americans and Mrs.
Goodheart, an American lady who GER
tainly deserves credit for her courage. She
armed herself and was ready for anything
lat might happen.

SECRETS OF THE UPPER AIR.
Some Interesting Discoveries Made by
Scientists.
From the Edinburgh Scotsman.

From the Edinburgh Scotsman.
Among the most fascinating and elusive
OF scientific studies, is that of the move
ments of our terrestrial atmosphere. Ever
since men began to go down to tie sea in
ships the needs of the navigator must have
leo aim to note for his own future guild
ance. and for the benefit of other adven-
turers, the general direction of the wind
at various seasons in different seas Grad
ually as the world widened the prevailing
winds OF the globe became accurately
known and the common knowledge sys-
tematized. so that now for probably every
part of the ocean outside the Polar circles
there are official and published records OF
the winds that may be looked for at any
season of the year Then, too, the student
of physical geography has noted how large
part the prevailing winds of any region
play in determining the climatic character
istics of different countries. Thus in the
British Isles by far the most frequent winds
are from a southWesterly quarter, and
these, blowing from off the warm waters
of the Atlantic give to our islands tenn
Derate climate out of all proportion to their
latitude. La recent years. however, science
has not been content with studying only
what are, after all. movements merely in
the lower strata of the great ocean of air
on the floor of which we live and move, but
has sought to penetrate the mysteries of
the upper air and to find out its secrets
Both Rotch and De Bort have devoted
resources anu talents
of no mean order to meteorological re-
search, and when, in the summer OF 1906
these two scientists united in a joint ex-
petition for the exploration of the Upper air
currents in the trade wind region of the
North Atlantic, the results of their observa-
tions were awaited with great Interest

Il will supply you with all the money
that is necessary, but you must abandon
your books for geishas.

The young man went forth St Anthony
pledged to yield to temptation. 1t proved
easier than he had anticipated. After a
few months OF going to the devil he fell
head over heels in love with a geisha.
That sort of thing did not make for eff
cheney as an officer. Black marks began
to accumulate against a record that had
previously been spotiess. After some Sc
we're reprimands he was dismissed from
the service with ignominy. His father for
bade him the house: his former military ac
quatntances cut him; he outcast,
with only the downward path that leads
to destruction open to him. Again he
sought the great general whose orders had
brought him to such a ptiable plight and
into his ears poured his tale of woe.
You have done we'll said the general;
you have reached that condition which
makes you available for the work with
which l am about to intrust you. It is a
mission of high Importance to the state.
Tonight you must proceed to Nagasaki,
telling nobody where you are going not
even your own father. You will take

you get to NagasaEi-not before-you will

lions. Fulfill them to the letter and your
reward will be the knowledge that you
have done something worth doing for your

At NagasaN the young man opened the
box and read his orders. to which no in

The Suffering College Girl.

From the Milwaukee Sentinel
The late Paul Laurence Dunbar used to
like joke about the higher education of
women In one of his lectures, delivered
late in June, Mr.. Dunbar said: "A lady
on sultry summer afternoon called on
some friends. The talk buzzed along
brisk1y, fans waved and the daughter of
the house kept twitching uncomfortably,
frcwuing and making little smothered ex-
CARNATIONS of annoyance. Finally, with an
impatient sigh. she rose and left the room.
Your daughter said the visitor, seems
to be suffering from the heat
No., said the hostess She is just back
hcrue from college and she is suffering from
the family grammar.
