William Mcdonald, of Providence,
r. l., has contributed to the New
York Nation an article of special in
terest to teachers and parents on "The
Situation of History in Secondary
Schools. His views are based on
his experience as college teacher
whose duties embrace the conduct of
certain entrance examinations in his
tory, and upon inquiries Systematically
pursued during the past six years at
summer schools at Harvard, Cornell,
the University of Chicago, and the
University OF California. He finds
that the teaching OF history in secon-
Diary schools has undergone some
praiseworthy changes within his term
of service as teacher and examiner
Less time is spent on military events
and romantic incidents, more on the
social, economic, and international
aspects of the field. History is now
looked upon less as a body of chron-
illogical facts to be learned outright.
and more as the interesting story of
vital social development. Schools
are better equipped now than they
formerly were with reference libraries
and maps, and there is q growing de-
mand for specially trained teachers in
the department Of history. On the
other hand, examinations disclose
some discouraging facts in the charac-
ter of the average pupils attachments
in history. There is striking lack, -
says Prof. Mcdonald, ''of orderly and
exact knowledge, even of elementary
matters, and pervading reliance up
on the general and vague This
fault, he thinks, is chiefly due to the
fact that ''the prevailing require
ments in history for admission to
college cover too much ground, and
cover it in q manner beyond the
powers Of the average Pupil and the
resources Of the average school,

Mr.. Roosevelt, for his part, has re.
peatedly declared that he is not max
ing and does not intend to make wal
on the big corporations, and that he
intends simply to enforce the laws
made to protect the rights and in.
terests of all concerned in the just
conduct of business. On the othe,
hand, he does not hesitate to admit
that, in his Judgment, the business OIL
the world must be transacted by great
combinations of capitalists, and, there.
fore, that individuals and companies
of more restricted resources must &c
to the wall. In other words, rrices
are no longer to be determined by
competition. What then?

Senator Depew returns from Europe
to talk about third term for Mr..
Roosevelt. ''How long," asks the
New York Evening Post, must re-
publicans and democrats alike writhe
under such misrepresentation as that
of Plat and Depew? How much
longer will the leaders of the republi.
can party permit it to continue? So
far as Plat is concerned, no honest
republican conceals his disgust at the
latest scandals in which this totterinR
old man has been enmeshed. And
Mr.. Depew need not deceive himself
as to his status. New York
in all truth is without representation
in the senate. -

edged with black, and bearing q few

Only q card, but two fond hearts have

the message Of sorrow. Only q card,

little more. It is fitting so. Il was
a pure spirit that winged its way
heavenward when this little bud was
plucked on earth to bloom in heaven;
q pure spirit, white and unsullied.

Only few days upon earth. Just q

strength for labor, and then sabbath

little being cast broad shadow back
as il went sunward? ''Ah, yes, it

a moment to remember. Remember

long since uttered: Suffer little
children to come unto me-, and the
