IS WELL PLEASED.

In letter of recent date g. f.. Kel-
lOgg, Principal of Grammar School No
Is this year in Rochester, New York,
and last year superintendent Of the
Yale Public schools, writes the follow
ing interesting description of his school
and his work any work here is very
pleasant although it keeps me very
busy. There are twenty-five teachers
in the building. While | do no real
teaching, | am held responsible for ev-
erything that is done in my school. We
have manual training shop fitted with
eighteen benches, i'm which all the boys
of the fifth grade and above spend from
one to two and quarter hours per
week.
have one class of 45 which is made
up entirely of foreign-speaking chill
dren, mostly Italians These children
are many of them just new arrivals
from the Old Country and we must
teach them to talk English as well as
to read and write. This work is in
tensely interesting as you may imag-
inc. Most of these children are very
bright.
There is a kindergarten where three
teachers are kept busy all the time.
Here we have children ranging in age
from four to six years. We make quite
a feature of music and drawing in the
schools and get very fine results.
have the third largest school i'm the
city. Our enrolment is about $50.
There are thirty-two other such schools.
While have by no means lost interest
in the Yale schools, yet am very glad
that | came here"
Mr.. Kellogg desires the address on
his Exposition to be changed to 10

1t is always a good time TO refrain
from calamity bowling, but it is par
ticularly practice to recommend this
spring. when for reasons not clearly
specified the rcSSimistic seem bound to
have it that R)ckland is passing
through a period of business depres-
sion. It is perhaps true that things
are mcasurably dull. but aren't they
usually 50 at the close of winter and in
the carly part Of spring? The manager
of a local wholesale house told US yes
terdav that their sales had exceeded
each month this year the sales of the
corresponding months of 1906 Col
lections. he added We're somewhat
slower at the present time. but he could
perceive no reason, viewing the general
business situation. for the habit lately
developed on the part Of some Of per-
ceiving only a dark outlook. The lime
situation is quite up to its average of
the Spring season. Local Shipbuilding
is in the best of condition. Look at the
showing just made by the Rockland
savings bank. printed in another col
umN. Which is one of extraordinary
prosperity and is Of the same general
tenor that all TIE local financial in
stitutions are enjoying. We do not be-
Ii, ve there is any fair ground upon
which to base Il sweeping charge of de-
preston ana a gloomy forecast that
Rockland is rushing toward the dem
milton bOw-wnws. 1t is easy to preach
destruction, but 50 it is easy to pro-
claim the business gospel of hope. Quit
mulligrubbing. Don't croak. Stand up
for Itockland. The pcssimist we have
always with us, but what is the good
Of hcarkenng To him? ROckland is ali
right, ana will continue 10 be years af
ter the most of us are laid on the
shelf.

MAINE EDITORIAL COMMENT.
The Flag and the Schools.


state Superintendent "f Schools
S:rtsOn calls attention Of the teachers
Of the State to 4 law passed by the
last Legislature requiring towns 10
furnish flags for school buildings, and
hopes for Il general compliance with
tn" provisions Of th' statute. patri-
otic instruction in tn public schools is
Hnu considered Il matter Of consider
able importance. Pupils are taught
To- salute and revere the flag whenever
displayed ANA to be constantly re-
minded that it is the emblem of lib
crty ANA National unity. Til" super
intendent also suggests that the
teachers make use of the National
emblem in educating the youths of
our State in the objects and principles
Of our government. the sacrifices of
our ancestors ANA the cost at which
our institutions have been established
ana maintained. Pupils should bc
instructed in Patriotism ana love Of
Country even in the lowest grades
and 4 display Of the flag with inS1rur-
lions as to its significance. ana its
glorious record is the most eff, ctive
method of reaching the unreasonable
mind of the youth. AS pointedly eX-
pressed by MIR. StttSon in the notice
which he has sent out: IF the children
are so taught that they learn to love
and honor the flag. much has been
done to make them safe and helpful
citizens"

That latest railroad horror in Cali
fornia with over 30 killed ana as many
badly injured is blamed upon dcrec-
tive rail. Quite a number of the
numerous wrecks Of late have been the
result of the same cause and the rail-
road people are charging the steel
trust with furnishing inferior rails.
Officials Of that concern reply warmly
that bette. rails were never made than
the heavy ones il has been turning out,
whrreupnn the manager Of an eastern
railroad system says that its records
SHOW that the so and s. pound rails
laid five or six years ago stand the
wear ana tear of present heavy traffic
better tn IN the heavier rails more re-
Gently laid. SO much testimony of this
kind is corning forward that the steel
men have concluded to confer with
experts from the railroads regarding
the matter.
