There is merry row on at Will
merding, Pa, because Of a waist
measuring church social held in
that town. The admission was
one cent for every inch OF girth
showed by the tape measure. All
the fat girls, it is alleged, laced a
triile tighter to save money, while
the thin ones made such artificial
arrangem ents as were deemed nee
essary for a more generous contri-
button. The young man who han
died the tape measure is accused
of unnecessary slowness as he
passed it around certain Of the
more beautiful forms. The social
was a great success among the
young people, but older ones are
not so we'll satisfied.

1t will be great day for the
children Of Texas when the teach
ing of agriculture and manual
training becomes general in the
public schools. Teaching from
books alone does not impress the
average child with the true value
and usefulness Of an education. 1t
is often looked upon as thing
that has to be gone through with
very much the same way as grow
ing pains or whooping cough, and
there is faraway haziness about
the practical value Of it that
doing practical work will relieve.
We do not depreciate the value OF
books and present methods, but we
do believe the general education
Of the past has been too largely
theoretical.

is customary for the cashier to collect
the money From the cash registers in

IVY p AsHINGTON, Oct. Cit is
w becoming !:; patent st to the sss.
that the fight for the republican NOM
ination for president in 1908 will be
between the progressive republicans as
represented by President Roosevelt and
the reactionary element of the party
as represented by Vice President Fair
banks. In the struggle it is altogether
probable that Mr.. Fairbanks will be
overwhelmed by popular wave Of en-
thusiasm for the Roosevelt ideals.
The Indiana statesman started out to
be candidate for president imnedi-
ately following the second Inauguration
of Mckinley. He and his friends made
studied effort to give the country
the impression that President McKin-
ley had chosen Mr.. Fairbanks as the
man to succeed himself. AS a matter
of fact the men who were closest to
President Mckinley knew that his
fondest hope was that Marcus. A.
Hanna should succeed him. "a

Praised by F'inanciers.

The interest which the captains of in
dustry feel in the vice presidents
boom is fairly illustrated by two re-
cent expressions from that source. Will
liam Nelson Cromwell, who won some
notoriety in connection with Panama
canal affairs, said recently in Washing
ton that Fairbanks is the ideal man
for 1908; he is the man the business
interests of the country want and will
have.' Mr.. Cromwell went on to ex-
plain that Fairbanks was "safe and
sane' and that the business interests
had no reason to fear any onslaught on
wealth while the Indiana man was at
the head Of the nation. Mr.. Cromwell
Is probably the typical corporation law
