Gov. Proctor of Vermont has signed
the bill providing for the consolidation
Of the school systems of neighboring
towns under one superintendent.
Registration statistics of leading east
ern universities are as follows: Harvard,
5,272; Columbia, 1865; Pennsylvania,
1900; Cornell. 3,461; Yale, 3,210j
Princeton, 1884,
The annual report Of the London coun.
ty council shows that the city schools
have been maintained at an outlay of
$25,0OO,OO0, md that there are 10000
teachers for An average school attend
ence Of $50, 1871. The salaries for head
teachers range from 800 to $1,000, and
for assistants from 1926 to 1915. Each
teacher has charge of forty-three children
on an average.
By decision OF the Supreme Court Of
the State OF Washington legal authority
upholds the efforts of school officials to
check the abuse of secret fraternities and
societies In public high schools. A local
board had forbidden pupils TO join a Sc.
cret fraternity, and as a penalty for dis
obedience denied to offenders certain priv
ileges In the social life of the school, bua
did not limit In any way the essential
educational rights. Action was brought
In behalf of the fraternity to restrain
the school board from deprivng the pupils
Of these privileges. The trial court denied
the application for an injunction, and
thu Supreme Court sustained the denial.
The court says that the evidence lover.
wheimingly establishes the fact that such
fraternities do have marked influence
on the school, tending to destroy good or
der, discipline and scholarship. This be-
Ing true, the board Is authorized, and is
L. it's duty, to take such reasonable and
appropriate action by the adoption Of
rules as will result In preventing these
influences"
The St. Paul board Of education has
approved the suggestion of Supt. Heeter
In favor OF corporal punishment, to be
administered only by the principal Of the
school after permission in writing has
been obtained from parents or guardian.
The first ten years since Princeton
college became Princeton university have
lust ended and the report shows that the
endowment has increased from S1,677,S71
10 s3.2S4. 900. The campus area has In
rres sed from 225 to 538 acres, and the
,tudeut body has grown from 1,0i5 to

THE RIGHT WORD.
spoken by tho Big, BIanderinK,
Ktnd-Hearted Husband.

htnd-Hearted Husband.
A small, frail-lookIng woman, fol-
lowed by two young men Of more ro-
bust fiber, although closely resembling
her, hurried up to gatekeeper In the
Grand Central station.
Does the train from Gresham come
IN here?' she asked, anxlously.
When the right gate was found there
were still thirty minutes to spare.
Better go inside, Lefty, and rest"
suggested one of the brothers.
But Lefty would not leave the gate
Her two brothers looked significantly
at each other, and let her have her
way. They took turns in carrying the
baby up and down.
Long before the train came the con-
versation revealed the situation. They
were here to meet Letty's husband who
six months ago had gone away because
OF supposed irreconcllable differences
between himself and his wife But the
relations on both sides had arranged a
peace. He was returning-the broken
home was to be restored.
ut was Jim's fault in the beginning"
repeated the little woman after asking
her brother again to look at his watch.
She was becoming more and more nerv-
| Gus.
1t was easy to guess at the differ
ences that had undermined this home,
| Excellent qualities were revealed in
the young wife's face. Although Of a
nervous temperament, she was no
shrew. But, evidently, she had habit
of imparting pieces of her mind!
| She was capable of love. but one of
| those who sickle for a point" while
DEEPER consequences go unnoticed. Had
the sad months past taught her the
larger wisdom Of life?
at was Jim's fault at tirst-I stand
| just as firm as ever" she repeated, the
tears in her eyes contrasting curiously
with her words. But for babys sake
I'll try It"
She must make her brothers under
stand that consenting to live again with
Jim did not involve yielding her orig
lnal point
~ shall tell him so-the first thing :"
The brothers looked into each others
eyes doubtfuly. Would there be a
scene?
To the brothers relief, the train
, finally came One held the baby, lAav-
ing Lefty free-to tell jim!
In the long line of passengers NOV
ing toward the gate a big fellow loom
ed up whose blue eyes searched vague
| ly. Suddenly he made a rush forward.
The little womans face lighted up
and grew beautiful; then she remem-
bered herself and set her face in or
der. There was that point to be made
first.
Jim, big and awkward and geLtle,
kissed the baby frst-perhaps he, too,
was giving Lefty her opportunity.
She went close to him. her head just
reached his chest. The words seemed
to stick.
Jim awkwardly patted her shoulder,
waiting.
Lefty" he said, at last, his voice
faltering over the last word, lets go
home"
And then they all marched away to-
| gether-the little wOman's face beau
| tiful now with the light, which stayed.
She had let the point" go. Through
the awkwardness of Jim, big and blum
dering and kind, had worked a great
wisdom-only four words, but the last
one that word laden with the magic of
the ages Youths Companion.
