The HIah school Fraternity.

A really serious problem in our edu'
cational system which threatens to Ell
danger not only the future of our
schools, but also to affect adversely
the spirit Of American democracy by
emphasizing class feeling, has been
presented to the American parent by
the establishment and Development OIL
the high school fraternity
I The situation is just this: Some
thirteen or fourteen years ago there
sprung up in the high schools Of this
country secret societies patterned af-
ter the college and university fraterni-
ties. The Inspiration for these came
partly from desire for more social
life in the school, AMI partly from prin-
cipals who had found their own college
societies distinct benefit. The high
school fraternlties were quickly follow.
ed by sororities, and these organiza-
lions thriyed harmIessly for while.
They were generally silly, but they
were innocuous. AS they increased in
numbers and we're strengthened by a
chapter system all over the country,
they became more and more power
full influence, until to-day they are the
dominating element in the schools, and
any challenge Of their supremacy Is ac-
companied by a threatened oyerturning
of all school discipline. Today edu-
Gators are practically united in regard
ing the high school secret society as
an elephant on their hands and they
are extremely anxious to rid them
selves OF 1t. How, is the question
teachers, parents, and even lawyers
are asking themselves.
The three main charges on which
the high school secret society is ar.
raigned are ~ that 1t is undemocrat-
ic, (2) that It resorts to cheap politics,
and (S) that It is Independent Of school
control. The National Educational AS
ISOLATION Investigated the matter and
from the results of the Investigation
saw fit at a meeting in 1905 to resolve
against such societies, "becaase they
are subverslye to the principles of dem
ocracy which should prevail In public
schools; because they are selfish and
tend to narrow the minds and sympa-
thies OF the pupils; because they stir
up strife and contention; because they
are snobbish; because they dissipate
energy and proper ambition; because
they set up wrong standards; because
rewards are not based on merit but on
fraternity VOWS; because they incul-
cate feeling of self.safficiency among
the members; because secondary
school boys are too young for club life;
because they are expensive and foster
habits OF extnvagance; because they
bring politics into the legitimate or
ganization Of the school; because they
detract interest from study; and be,
cause all legitimate elements for good
social, moral and intellectual which
these societies claim TO possess can
better be supplledto the pupils through
the school atlarge in the form Of 1T
.erary societies and clubs padsr

According TO the estimate made, the
total tonnage of coal in the United
States, exclusive Of Alaska, is Rp-
proximately 2,2OOOOO,OOO,OOO short
tons Ia short ton Of coal is 1000
pounds.) If this amount of coal we're
nodded into a single block, it would
form cube seven and one-half miles
high, seven and one-nalf miles long,
and seven and one.half miles broad,
expressed in another way, 1t would
form a layer of coal six and one.half
feet thick over the entire area Of the
coal.deld Of the United States, 400
900 square miles in extent.
Surety such an amount of coal seems
inexhaustib!e. A block seven and
one.half miles high would tower above
the highest mountains on the earth.
This is an enormous amount of coal.
1t represents the nations reserve Of
power. 1t would be majestic to look
upon; but at the rate at which the
consumption of coal is increasing in
the United States, it does not appear
that it will last for many centuries.
The rate of increase is enormous.

DUNLAPs GET CHILD
Long Struggle for Little Girl Born 10 South
Salisbury.

In Troy Tuesday Justice Howard OF
the supreme court handed down an or
der awarding the custody and control
OF Hazel Dixon q ten year old girl 10
her foster father, Hugh Dunlap who
lives on farm north OF Troy. The
case attracted considerable attention
about q year ago when IL was brought
before the court on the application OF
the child's father, Herbert A. Dixon
OF Upper Troy for a writ OF babeas
corpus 10 compel Mr. Dunlap 10 pro-
duce the child In court.
The little girl was brought before
Justice Howard by Mr. and Mrs Dam
lap January IL, 1906 and the testimo
ny taken showed that Dixon had de-
serted his wife In Vermont when the
child was an infant. o. the mothers
death she gave the child into the care
OF Mr. aud Mrs Dunlap aud she grew
up In tbs family and called them father
aud mother, although they never took
steps to legally adopt the child. Dixon
remarked and settled In Troy and then
began steps 10 get custody OF the
child. The case was finally closed
Tuesday when Justice Howard dismis
sed the writ aud gave the child Into
the custody Of the Dunlsps.
This will be OF interest 10 many In
this section from the fact that oil the
parties interested were formerly resi-
dents OF South SALISBURY. Hugh
Dunlap Is . brother OF Postmaster
Thomas Dunlap. Herbert Dixon left
the village several years ago, leaving
bis sife and child In destitute circum
stances. The wife died soon after.
