dren's parties formed to visit the Allan
ia exposition in all localities where it
is convenient for them to do so. They
will learn more than they would in a

an epoch in the lives Of many of them.
Special railroad rates will be made for

! School Lectures.

: Tho pleasantest and by no means least
profita BILE way to get instruction is by
means of lectures. School authoritieg are
beginning to find that out more and
more and to arrange in the cou rses=ot u:
public instruction for occasional: talks
on various scientific, historical and 9th
or subjects. ~:<".', . *;>E: "a"
New York; city perhaps furnishes the
most shining example. thus far Of the
success Of public school lectures. The
superintendent Of the course is DR.. Henry
NJ. Lelpziger, who grows more en-
thusiastic on this subject the more he
knows about it. His report shows that
last year $50 lectures altogether were
given They We're attended by no less
than 1924, 118 persons. The course began
In November and extended over Is
weeks, ending in March.
1t was a sight with touch Of pathos
in it IT, witness the audiences at the lee
lures. They were given at each hall on
two evenings of the week. No children
under l6 years old are allowed to at
tend, the instruction being for the older
class OF school pupils. But the parents
presented themselves in greater force
than the young people did. Gray haired
men and women, bowed with work,
fastened their evening meal and hur-
ried to the hall, where they hung upon
overy word Of the speaker. It was a
light and a joy to their toll and poverty
blighted lives. In many instances they
were foreigners who could scarcely
speak English, but that made no differ
ence. They heard, understood and
learned.
The lectures are free to all the people.
The state appropriates small compen-
sation out of the public school fund to
pay each speaker. The talks and papers,
although intended for school children
and their parents and friends, embrace
topics in which university students
might pro6tably interest themselves
The field Of natural science was covered
So was history, particularly American
history. The economic questions of the
day were expounded with clearness. One
Of the most nu1nerously attended of the
ctures was one on Greek architecture,
and it gave infinite delight in the very
slums of the great city. Stereopticon
views illustrated many Of the talks, and
these were especially popular. Some of
the lectures were in courses of from two
to four, notably those on electricity,
light and economics.

Racing Yachts Not Handsome.

An old time yachtsman who took a
careful view Of the two boats that fig
ure in the 1895 America 8 cup contest did
not admire their looks. He walked all
around Valkyrie III in the drydock be-
fore the races, viewed her from stem to
stern and shook his head. Then he re-
marked: = !:
r She's a 7home1y:-brute, and it owned her
and she won the cup I'd smash her and the
mug up and 20 out of the yachting business
Formerly racing yacht was to be thing of
beauty. Even the eye of a landlubber could
appreciate the beauty Of her lines, the SYM
metry Of her form and her grace as she foated
upon the water. Aside from having a fast
boat, yachtsmen used to take delight in her
appcarance-in her white canvas, her trim
spars. But that monstrosityl Who could take
an honest pride in that? It's enough to make
sailor weep to look at that gas pipe she has
for main BOOM There is not pretty line
about her, and the Defender, Vigilant and the
rest Of the shark nosed, overhung freaks are
just as bad: They're all racing machines, not
boats; mere contrivances made to beat the
rules.
