Murder Of the lnnocents.

One child in eight must begin the
battle for existence before he is sixteen
years of age. Such, in brief, is TIE
conclusion Of COMMUNICATION which
the University Of Missouri has received
from Professor Samuel Lindsay Of the
wharton School OF Finance, in which
he seeks to point out some Of the
problems the Universities can help to
solve during the next decade. To
quote:
"There are 100000 children
between the ages Of 10 and 16 IN this
country who work for a living.
About 100000 are engaged in
occupations considered dangerous,
However, to eliminate child labor is
exceedingly difficult. Machines are
doing work today that required hand
labor ten and twenty years ago. In
many instances boys run the machines,
Organized industries are continually
reaching out for Increased profits, and
cheap labor is a means to this end.
Child labor is cheap, consequently il
is encouraged by capitalists.
"Business men are slow to change
their methods. The men who
conduct the glass industry declare
that they would be forced to close i
compelled to employ men for the
night work assigned to boys. They
overlook the fact that although child
labor is forbidden in England, the
glass industries of that country
continue in operation. The work o
boys who carry bottles from thu
blowers is extremely %laborious, and BY
actual measurement / have found thai
the lads walk twenty miles every nigh
IN places intensely hot"

Public School Notes.
rBH W. T. Darlington !

~
There is one requirement of law
that school boards ought to enforce
now, just as the schools close. The
teacher is not entitled to the last
months salary until every report is
properly made. The term report
consists of more than enrolment,
attendance and hardness. 1t must,
under the law, include a detailed
statement OF what each child studied,
how far he progressed and how we'll
he did his work.
This is the season for school
commandments. First came the
closing OF the rurEl schools after six,
seven or eight months terms, then the
rural final examinations and
ordinations by county. In many
counties, graduation is made a great
school rally day. 1t begets interest

The Bright Side Of MatrimOny.

Marry Stewart Cutting contributes
another Of her little classics Of married
life to the April McClure's. These
stories are ABSOLUTELY unique, and yet
they are so iull Of truth that they
strike o responsive chord in the heart
OF about everyone who reads them.
"a symphony in Coal" isa story OF
story Of everyday American men and
women, and the incident on which 1t
hinges, Is one Of the small misunder-
standings that occasionally disturbs
the married quarters; but how describe
the charm, the constant appeal OF this
story9 The plain truth appears to be
that the "Ridge people" are our
people-the ordinary, everyday sort,
who really live and breathe, and
whose little lives interest us q whole
lot more than imaginary princesses
and adventures. Very few persons
will read "a Symphony in Coal''
without feeling a tug at bis memory.
It's ten to one that IN n or another
of the characters he will recognize his
own prototype. There's a strong and
intensely entertaining lesson here for
all married PROFESSIONALLY for
those who have newly entered into
matrimony.

and enthusiasm in the schools.
Every county should make much Of
rural school graduation. 1t will mark
an epoch in the lives of many country
boys and glrls and tend to hold them
10 school longer and to more faithful
effortlwbile in school.
In recent years, standards Of
efficiency in teachers have advanced
a. the rate of ten per cent a year.
The only way a teacher can keep
abreast OF the progress is to spend a
su m now and then in q good
summer school. All the State Normal
Schools and the Teachers College
maintain high grades of work. No
teacher will make mistake in attending
any of them. Besides the excellent
opportunities. and grades to raise
certificate, in due time the teacher
can finish o good normal training aud
thus secure professional recognition.
When the school closes, let it be
some ones duty to care for the
school house, grounds, library and
other property during vacation.
Don't let things become delapidated.
1t will be well to have a committee of
girls whoIwlll make regular visits to
the house to see that everything is
kept in good condition on the interior,
aud a like, committee Of boys to keep
the premises IN proper condition. II
the ground is so arranged as to make
it possible, why not cultivate flowers
or vegetables thereP Do something
with it to awaken an interest? Let
each feel a personal pride in the school
house andIpremises and make 1T the
beauty spot OF the community.
The educational ideal in Germany
Is scholarship; in England, culture; in
the United States, service. Whether
these educational aims are results or
causes of the chief characteristic Of
each nation, is immaterial. We
believe in scholarship and in culture,
but more in being able to do things.
1t is not enough to know; it is not
enough to see things in proper
relations. The great virtue is in
doing the right thing in the right way

INSURANCE PAYMENTS.

= 7orty-fve insurance companies have
out, to date. Se4, 319, $50 to policy
hosiers in San Francisco. There are
many other companies to be heard from
and in due time we shall get the COM
plete list The amount received by
policy holders will be much less than
their policies entitled them to expect,
but good deal more than it was fear
ed would be obtained two months ago.
Welchers, and intending welchers, have
found that WEIGHING does not pay. and
they, and companits from whom nothing
was for time expected, except at the
end of a lawsuit, are now settling on
some basis which they can get the
policy holders to accept. Some COM
panies have failed and are unable to
make full payments. When inability
is satisfactorily established policy hold
ers are generally asserting to settle
ments on basis which will enable the
companies to secure new capital and
continue business.
In commenting on the above, the
San Francisco Chronicle says: We do
not know whether the new insurance
law which will be enacted by the next
Legislature is receiving the attention
from the most capable men, which its
Importance demands. A certain class
of professional politicians will doubt
laec cool, To foxy xxyifh thu
thinking by enacting legislation which
the companies will not accept We do
not wish to drive away solvent COM
panies. On the contrary there is a
demand in this city for more insurance
than can be obtained and the scarcity
of the supply is enabling companies
now here to collect rates which are, in
many cases, quite unreasonable. What
we need is that the contracts of insur-
ance shall be made perfectly clear and
so printed that the conditions, and es-
pecially the limitations, of liability
shall be made plain even to the care
less or ignorant There is no objection
and it would be wise thing to
.standardize the policies and require all
companies to use that form, unless the
words, "This is not a standard policy"
are prominently printed both on appli-
cation and policy. We do not suppose
that it is possible, by state law, to
prevent parties entering into any such
contracts of insurance as they desire.
We do not think it would be wise to
prevent it. But it doubtless is com
petent for the Legislature to provide
against any possibility of misunder-
standing.
There is no matter which especially
requires attention, and that is the ex-
tent to which our constitutional pro-
vision for stockholders liability is an
actual protection, either as to Califor-
MIA companies or foreign companies
which have qualified under our law. If
it is wholly deceptive the public should
know it. In the case of the WEIGHING
Pittsburg company, whose stockholders
are among the wealthiest men in
America, we do not understand that it
is expected to realize one dollar by the
enforcement of stockholders liability.
The situation is probably pretty we'll
