Enrolment Falls Short.

AS it is, probably 5000 would more than
cover the first days enrolment; 1000 or
1900 more were expected Before the term
is well under way, however, it is estimated
that fully $1,000 youngsters will be enrolled
for the year.
Of course, the children looked at 1t,
the rain wasn't such bad thing so long
as 1t kept them away from school, Any
postponement of their torment was We

ing their first entrance into school life
chung tightly to the hands or skirts Of their
mothers and looked about them in bewirier-
ment, not knowing whether it was the
proper thing to laugh or cry. Some laughed;
merely stared
Ing. These tempered somewhat the sor-
row incident to the c.ose of the vacation
period. In the upper classes these were
more enjoyable, for in the many previous
years of school life not a few close friend
ships have grown up and fourished, which
were interrupted by the end Of school last
June. So every cloud has its silver lining
even the dismal cloud of school troubles
Everybody was busy at the Franklin
School all day. When he was asked about
enrolment reports about noon, Secretary
Hine of the board of education remarked:
Its a wonder to me that any of them are
out, but lots of them are. There will not
be as many we expected on the first
DAY, however; but wait until the end of the

HE WOULD ENCOURAGE MILITIA

Postmaster General Meyer has issued an
order of special interest to members of the
National Guard employed in the postal
service The action of the post office was
based on an incident which recently oc-
CURED at Tall City Ind. That incident was
described by Gen. Oran Perry, ad1utant
general of the state of Indiana, in letter
addressed to the adjutant general, U. s. A.,
in this city as follows:
Employees Fail to Respond.
ION August o there was issued from this
office a call for riot duty at Tall City. IND,
designating companies E and l., LIST Bat
TALON, LIST Infantry, Maj. Julius F. Blum,
commanding, from whose report the fol-
lowing extract is made:
"Sergt. Maj. Robert j. Murray of the bat
TALON staff failed to respond for service
Sergt Maj. Murray is an employe OF the
post Office and was refused permission Z"
accompany the battalion, under the penalty
of losing his position. The government
official cited a similar case that occurred
in the state of Ohio, when ruhng was
made by the post office authorities that a
government cmploye who was member
of the National Guard was not compelled
to answer a call for National Guard serV-
ice If this ruling is correct no govern
ment employee should he allowed to enlist
in the National Guard.
"A similar case. Private Walter C.
Roth. a United States mail carrer ana a
member of Company f. being duly noti-
fed August 9. 1907, was told by the post
Office authorities that he would lose his
position If he responded to the call or
his company commander for service. 1t is
recommended that the status OF memper
of the Indiana National Guard who is en-
ploved by the government be ascertained
and published for the benefit of all con-
cPrneQ.

Conditions Not Favorable.

Congested conditions in the Eastern and
Business high schools and the Mckinley
Manual Training School are bothering the
authorities. Principal Small. who enter
tanned last. year at the Eastern, number
of pupils who overf1owed from the Bust
ness, reported this morning to the secretary
that he was very sorry, but he wouldn't
have any room for any but his own pupils
this year.
This is an unfortunate state of affairs;
for the new four-year course at the Bust
ness has brought to that school greater
enrolment than ever this year. The Nc
Kinley Manual Training School. which has
been popular ever since it was built a
few years ago that it has been unable to
provide for all the pupils who desire to go
mission.
Superintendent Chancellor and the men,
bers of the board of education are scratch
ing their heads to find way. One will
doubtless be found; but, they all say, this
predcament only serves to emphasize the
need for more high school space in the
District-a matter which has been urged
upon Congress for the past few years.
All of the applicants for admission to
the graded schools got in. but many build
ings have had to be rented to make room
for them, and on this account the accom-
modations are not up-to-date in every
case.

pointed director of drawing in the public

that these rules forbid aid 10 insiitu-

would have the effect OF making the

should be a matter of cOngratulation
and pride, instead Of being an affair OF
enmity and jealousy. When the
State has done all that il can do, man

NOT IN LOVE WITH FEMALES.

In a leading editorial which appear
ed recently in the Baltimore sun, Maj.
r. NJ. Venable, a native of Prince Ed
ward, and who for many years has
been a leading lawyer Of his adopted
city, was referred to as being so OPP
posed to the female sex in general a.
to refuse his endorsement as president
of the "Park Board" Of the purchase
of a female sea lion 10 be companion Of
a male already the occupant Of a pool
in the park. Upon what meat hath
this our brother been feeding since he
became eilizenof the great city that he
should lose his appreciation Of the mo-
blest portion Of Gods animal king
dom? 1t isn't good for that sea-lion
to be alone and the one best compan-
ion would be a maiden of his own
family comedy and congenial. Nor
has it been good that the big bodied,
big hearted Major should have been
alone all these years. What a noble
husband some noble woman has been
losing, and what light has been fail
ing to shine in that palatial home of
his over whose threshold no one has
ever gone without feeling the thrill Of
a new pleasure.
If the writer Of the editorial 20 which
we have referred has not misrepre-
scented the Major we are forced to the
conviction that his going 10 the city
has been as hur.ful to him as has the
removal of Union Theological Semi
nary to another city been to it. The
longer we live and the more we know
of the world the more are we satisfied
that Good made the country and man
made the town. There can be no
other explanation Of the "wide, wide
sea" that rolls and roars between the
two conditions as we find item.
