 It is this part of the ocean, between the Isthmus and Peru, which suggested to the old Spaniards the name of Pa cific. It is like a mill pond.
 And these strange gallons with their chicken GOODS and unhappy steers and unbranded inhabitants, mosey along through the heat simmer as though they were no such thing as hurry in the world An engaging laxity per vades ones ship.
 It was always a mystery to me just how ours was navigated. There was a game on in the captains room con- tinuously, and no matter what hour of the night one may awake, one always seemed to catch the clink of chips coming down through the ven- tilator from the bridge.
 The other officers invariably left the table before the meal was finished so that they could appropriate the deck golf implements and keep them until the next gong rang. We rarely, big as we were, did more than eight knots and whenever it was found difficult to make our next port before sunset we would slow down and come in the next morning.
 It is a trifle more than 5000 miles from Panama down the coast to Val paralso and the journey ought to be made in ten or twelve days. It now takes-although the Peruvians are or ganizing a faster line-anywhere from three weeks to a month.

Arks Which Mosey Along Bearing
 Coops, Cattle and Chips.
 In the North Atlantic there is noth- ing quite like the quaint arks that meander down the long ocean highway from Panama to Valparaiso. As large as our smaller steamships, but with an extraordinary amount of deck space and the staterooms all on deck, they cary everything from mail to fresh let tuce and perform the functions of a hcuseboat freight steamer, village gossip and market gardener.
 Your beefsteak of tomorrow stands on the hoof gazing up at you from the hatchway below. On the upper deck, according to Golfers, barnyard fowls housed in a double-decker coop blink responsibility through the slats.
 The captain is likely to be a British coaster. the officers English or Chilean and the stewards Chilean rotos, who look as though they would stick a knife through ones ribs for half a bottle of Disco.
 There are no tourists in the North Atlantic sense of the word, and the inhabitants of the ship, practically all of whom speak Spanish and stumble along at least in one or two other lan- guages, are German, Yankee and north of England drummers, engineers bound for the railroads and mines, now and then some little swarthy army officer, or a native merchant travelling with his wife, pallid in her rice powder, awed and quite frightened

MAKING SKILLED PRINTERS.

Boston Master Printers Combine Ap-
 prenticeship System With Trade
 School
 It is now three or four years since the master printers of Boston, acting in an informal way, entered into an agreement to provide funds for the maintanance of an apprentices school of printing in the North End Union and to take into their employment on desirable terms all boys who should complete satisfactorily the requirements of the school. Thus far the plan has wos,-ad well.
 For a long time the master printers have struggled with the problem of maintaining a high degree of intelli- gence and efficiency in their workmen and the study which has been given to this problem led to the experiment of the North End Union School of Print ing, combined with modernized app premiership system which, while less rigid than that which prevailed fifty years ago includes the real advantages of the old time Llan.
The daily morning journal and courier., 1906-12-21


 Into the school of printing are taken boys of about 16 or IT years, generally boys who have had some experience in business life, but have not seemed to "fit' or to secure good opportunities for advancement. They are taken first on three months probation and if at the end of that time their progress has been satisfactory to the instructor they are admitted to the apprentice shic system.
 This means that the boy will remain for one year at the training school, and upon completing the requirments of the course will be taken into the office of one of the master printers on an apprenticeship agreement for three years. The agreement provides that the employer shall pay the fee of $100 for the years instruction at the school and that the boy shall receive s9 a week for the first six months of his service and an increase of $1 for each additional six months during the three years. Thus at the end of the three years the graduate of the school will be receiving journeyman's wages. This is not the end of his expected pro- gross, however, for it is the general scheme of the master printers to re- cruit from these apprentices their higher paid skilled men and foremen, and the work of the graduates thus for seems to LTove that this can be done.
 The ordinary course of length of an apprenticeship in the printers trade is five years-that is, five years of ser vice in shop. Under this plan the Eertod is only four years, including one year in the school and three in the shop, so that the net results are al least equally good The boys thus far taken into the school have taken hold admirably, as rule, and there are some conspicuous cases of deter. mined struggle and self-sacrifice on the part of the pupils during the year in which they are receiving their school training and must support themselves.
 It is believed by those who have studied this system in operation and have contributed toward it's success that the plan can be adapted to other trades having requiremnts similar to he printing trade, and it provides a valuable object lesson Thus far the experiment is unique in New England.

THE soc1ALrsr1c FALLAcY.

THE SOCIALISTlC FlALLACY. I travelled the other day with the manager of one ofthe greatest motor works in Northern Italy, and he told me that his many thousands w1rkmen were all socialists.
 'And do the more skilled ones. who receive higher wages divide with the other ones?' I asked sympathetically.
 ''oh mo-" he said, they only want more"
 In fact the only man of whom ever heard that has acted up to so- cialistic principles, though he was not one by conviction. was one of the Rothschllds at Vienna.
 One day an unemployed workman came to him. anathematizing him for his heartlesness, and preaching equal division,
 The baron listened patiently, and when the man had done he said:
 "Very well you say I have so many millions which ought to be divided equally in this country. There are so- and-so many inhabitants in the Aus trian Empire. therefore each person would receive 9 1ourins and 20 kreti- gers. Here are your fiorins and 20 kreuzers; they are your part. Goodby and don't b2ther me any more.
 The lesson the baron forced by &C., ton, though simIle one, is apparent lv a very difficult one for the social istic mind to master.
 | oA hattnr 6ff than he had been before, and the bar baron gone on with the just d!stribu- ton of his money, nobody would have been the better for it. The only diff ference it would have made was that l it woulfd have left one more nfWyp it would have left him a begEar | It is the tendency of to-day to level everything with the idea of ecualizing the position of all But, much as this may be tried, it cannot be done, for there are other gifts which come straight from God, which never can be divided and which are some of the | greatest powers on earth, even more than money Such, for instance, are a mans brains, his character, cleverness anl it, d woman's grace. charm and beuty. Factors such as these will al ways disturb the equilibrium of every artificial distribution The cardinal mistake the socialist make is that they are bent upon leveling down, when they ought, if they have the real veal 3f humanity at heart, to level up-- Lady Paget, in The Nineteenth Gen. tur-'

SHAKESPEARE WEAR1ES TOL-
 ,STOY


 I remember the astonishment felt when first read Shakespeare, I ex- pected to receive a powerful, aesthetis pleasure, but, having read, one after the other, works regarded as his best King Lear" Romeo and Juliet" Hamlet" and "Macbeth''-not only did I feel no delight, but felt an ir- restible repulsi3n and tedium, and doubted as to whether was sanseless in feeling works regarded as the sum- init of perfection by the whole world to be trivial and positively bad, or whether the significance with which this civilized world attributes to the works of Shakespeare was itself sense- less.
 My consternation was increased by the fact that I always keeny felt the beauties of poetry in every form; then why should artistic works recognized by the whole world as those of gen. ius-the works of Shakespeare-no only fail to Llease me but be disagree able to me? For long time I could not believe in myself, and during fifty years, in order to test myself, several times recommened reading Shakes peare in every possible form, in Rus sian, in English, in German and in Schlegers translation, as I was ad- vised. Several times I read the dramas and the comedies and historic al plays, and I invariably underwent the same feelings-repulslon weariness and bewilderment. At the present time, before writing this preface, be- ing desirous once more to test myself, I have as an old man of seventy-f1ve again read the whole of Shakespeare, inludicng the historical plays, the "Henrys," "Troilus and Cresslda," the Tempest" "Cymbeline," and I have felt with even greater force the same feelings, this time however, not of be- wilderment but of firm indubitable conviction that the unquestionable glory of a great genius which Shakes peare enjoys, and which compels writ CTS of our time to initiate him, and readers and spectators to discover in him non- existent merits-thereby dis tortins their aesthetic and ethical un- derstanding-is a great evil, as Is very untruth.
 Although I know that the majority of Leople so firmly believe in the great ness of Shakespeare that in reading this judgment of mine they will not admit the possibility of its justice, and will not give it the slightest attention, nevertheless, I will endeave)r as well as can to show why I believe that Shakespeare cannot be recognized as a great genius or even as an average author,-Count Leo Tolstoy, in The Fortnightly Review,

All Highwood Residents Not in Favor
 of Annexation.
 There are some people in Hamder who will be opposed to the proposed annexation of the part of that town known as Highwood to the city ofNew Haven. Such persons live in High wood and have another scheme on foot which may come up at the coming ses- sion of the general assembly.
 They would like to see Highwood made a borough such as West Haven is in the town of Orange.
