- tendent Bryan, Attorney Gen
eral Atkinson has officially replied to
six questions concerning public school
management, the questions covering
as many disputed points among teach
ers. Following are the answers:
The jurisdiction of teacher over
the school children begins when they
leave home and ends when they get
back home.
The principal of school has juris-
diction over the school grounds at all
times, including holidays. and pupils
may be punished for acts committed
outside of school hours if the effects
of such acts reach within the school
room.
A county superintendent can only
issue a permit to teach until the date
of the following examination, and in
event of the failure of the teacher to
pass the examination the permit can
not be extended.
If temporary certificate is issued
by the county superintendent unlaw-
fully, it gives the holder thereof no
authority to teach.
Mandamus is the remedy to compel
county superintendent to enforce
the compulsory attendance law. The
statute also provides a fine for VIC
lation of the law through the refusal
of the proper officers to enforce it.
At the recent meeting Of the state
teachers association a number of res
olutions were adopted avoring
changes in the school law, as follows:
Changing the time of taking the
annual school census from June to
February; establishing graded sal
airy schedule; permitting cities Of
10000 and over to levy ten mills with
out special election, instead of five
as at present; that new buildings be
approved by the county superintend-
emit or a competent architect; that
the constitutional limit of two terms
as applied to county superintendent
be removed; that an allowance by the
state of $40 for library purposes be
authorized to each school whose dist
riot appropriates like sum, meas
ure more particularly for county
schools; a reasonable credit for night
school attendance; a commission to
revise and codify the school laws; to
compel county commissioners to main
tain truants and incorrigibles at par
entail schools; allowing cities of the
first class separate Institutes; author
ization of a levy to liquidate indebted
ness of district before consolidation;
increasing number of places for hold
ing teachers examinations in cour ties
where necessary; recommendation for
two additional holidays for the reason
that same are state holidays, towit,
Westinghouse birthday and Memorial
day; authorizing county superintend-
ents to expend 500 annually for coun-
ty directors meeting, same to be paid
by county commissioners.

THE SERVICE PENSION.

Approximately 100000 applica-
tions have already been filed I'M
der the service pension act that
was passed by the last congress.
Nobody is in position to say how
much that act will add to the
country's pension burden. 1t is
probable that the estimated
amount will prove to be about
half what it will actually be.
Every person who was honorably
discharged from the army and who
has reached the prescribed age
limit will get pension if he ap-
plies for it. On Thursday night
in New York, Andrew Carnegie
announced in speech that he was
going to apply for it. 1t amounts
to $l44 year. OF course Mr..
Carnegie doesn't need the MONEY,
and probably wouldn't apply fol-
it except to make record that he
served in the Civil war. He said
Iii his speech that he was the third
man to shed his blood for the
Ameci can republic.

COuRTESY no sTRANGERs.

The woman climbed on to the
street car with her arms full of
bundles. Just as she reached the
platform she dropped one The
conductor, standing with his hand
on the bell rope, did not offer to
pick it up, SO the woman stopped
to do so, and at that moment the
conductor rang the bell and the
car started. -
It is needless to tell you the
rest, for you can readily picture
the scene of the woman in heap
on the floor of the platform and
the scattered bundles. The con-
ductor scowled as he helped her to
her feet, and by the time she had
picked up two bundles he had
managed to pick up but one.
Most of the people in the car
saw this incident, and a woman
turned to her companion, saying
loud enough sc that many near
her could hear: "What husband
that conductor would make"
It was pertinent comment for
the attitude a man assumes to-
ward women in general is the same
that he will assume toward his
wife.
So many girls don't understand
this point. They think if a man
is courteous to them before mar
riage he is all right no matter if
he isn't courteous to the majority
Of. other women. If that conductor
who showed such brutal indiffer-
ence toward a woman who was a
stranger to him rushed to pick up
the handkerchief his best girl had
dropped she'd be inclined to over
look his treatment of others; but
if she married him she would find
him treating her just as he had
formerly treated strangers.
It's the courtesy we show to
strangers that reveals us in our
true light. That's the reason the
action of that conductor showed
him to be at heart wholly lacking
in courtesy toward women.

LUMBER.

1t is estimated that in New
England alone 600, 100000 feet of
lumber are used annually in the
manufacture of packing boxes.
In the whole country probably
ten times that amount of lumber
is used each year for packing box
es and crates. White pine is the
chief material employed in the
North for this purpose, and SO
great has become the dram upon
the forests for this wood that the
National Bureau of Forestry is
advising that the manufacturers
in New England buy up waste
lands and raise their own white
pine. There ought to be sug-
gestion In this for owners of idle
and waste lands in the South.
What we know as the "old field"
or ''shorU leaf" pine is a tree of
rapid growth. 1t doesn't compare
with the yellow" or "long leaf"
pine as a permanent building ma
terial; but for packing boxes,
crates and the like, it is just as
good as white pine, and probably
better. During recent. years the
demand has increased for short
leaf pine lumber. Farmers who
have old worn out fields might do
well to see to it that they are sown
i'll short-leaf most.

San Francisco, Feb. 14.-For the third time an Franisco has offered S15000O,000 of street bonds and re- ceived no bids.
