more than one-third of the passenger
mileage upon railroads in Kansas is

mand the immediate abolition OF the

and the establishment of passenger
rate of cents per mile for adults,

children, as now.

pulsory schooling utterly unqualified to do
the things expected of boys and girls start

A man dwelling in East Twenty-fourth
street complains to one who has interested
himself in reform that while there are 6g,0'O
children kept out of the first grade schools
the time OF the rest is taken up with raffla
and other fancies so that when at IA they
, have TO go out to earn living they do not
even know English. Writes another: M
Maxwell has had no experience as teacher
but is only a theorist in educational work
Many have dared to hint that his greatest
solicitation is not for the mental benefit OF
the children under his care"
One commissioner puts it thus: 1.-THE
school life OF the average child is not
more than seven years. These seven years
should be devoted to giving the child a
foundation that will be of service during
life-the life they will have to lead. We
have full data showing that poor mems
children go out into the world at IA miser-
ably equipped. Reading, writing, arithme-
tic, spelling, some grammar and some geog-
raphy, with a knowledge of the salient
points OF history-every child is entitled to
these. This education is now denied to
children too poor to go to private schools
The curriculum should be so arranged that
these essentials are taught to the exclusion
of every nonessential." AS the time of tho
child lengthens this commissioner suggests
in direct ratio to the ability of its parents
to give higher opportunities the course may
be expanded. The system that is overloaded
with fads and fancies, he declares. is turn
ing out host OF mental cripples only half
armed to meet the world. New York Sun
