The Drag in Public Schools.

The pace of classes in our nublic grammar schools is determined by the average pupil, or perhaps pupils a lit. tie below the average. In view of the task thrown upon our grammar schools, of taking all sorts of raw material-children of foreign birth. children in whose homes study Is i'm. possible-we can hardly complain that the work often drags. Our chief criti- cism Is that in so many cases no pro- vision is made for promoting the bright children more rapidly. They are held back in lock-step with the rest The boy who can easily complete the program for three years in two or two and half, and who would profit large ly by moving ahead quickly, is not al. lowed to break the ranks. He is under no stimulus to exert himself and do his best As result, he dawdles and forms thoroughly bad habits of appli. cation, habits which may cling to him and clog him through life.-New York Post.

slight colds are apt to be fashionable, and sometimes they last until late in the winter, often with serious results. Prevention is always better than a cure.

WEATHER, AT FIRST HAzY,
CLEARS BEFORE ARRIVAL
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
SAN DIEGO, April 14.-The day of
the fleets arrival opened dark and
threatening, but shortly after 10 o'clock
the sun succeeded in burning its way
through the clouds and shone brilliant
ly at frequent intervals. At noon the
sky was sapphire blue. The shores of
Coronado beach, the vantage point to
view the coming ships, were thronged
from early morning, the trolley and
ferry service from the city being taxed
10 its utmost to handle the crowds.
Special excursion trains reaching the
city this morning added materially TO
the number of sightseers who sought
san Diego as offering the first oppor-
tunity for a glimpse of the far-famed
ships.
The weather had been hazy off shore
for several days, and at times shut Off
the view of the Mexican mountains,
which stretch out to join the sea some
eighteen miles TO the south. Today,
however, the towering range, dis
tinguished by long, fat crest known
as Table mountain, renowned land
mark Of the Pacific coast, lying many
miles out TO sea, stood boldly outlined
against the horizon.
Faint films of smoke rising to the
clouds gave the first intimatton OF the
approach of the fleet and at 10:3O
o'clock the flagship Connecticut, at the
head of the approaching column, could
be made out with powerful glasses.
The ships had just rounded Point of
Rocks at this time and had a stretch
of twenty miles before them to the
anchorage ground off Hotel del Coro-
nado.
AS the ships passed the Mexican
boundary line the first real American
note of welcome was sounded. A party
of customs officials on duty at Tia
Juana had made their way to the shore
and erected u tall flag pole. Just at
the moment the Connecticut crossed the
imag ginary line conforming to the boun-
dary monument, the stars and stripes
We're hoisted and the little band of
patriots gave three lusty cheers. The
demonstration could not reach to the
ships to gain q response, but this fact
did not in any way diminish the en-
thuslasm of the party.
Several excursion steamers and scores
of gayly decorated launches put out OF
the bay early this morning and cruised
far down the coast TO meet the fleet.
Tomorrow is to be the only officially
declared holiday In the city, but today
might just as well have been, as the
streets were practically deserted dur

could possibly set away went to the
shore to see the ships. Those who could
not leave sought the roofs of the high
buildings and secured a pretty picture
in miniature of the maneuvers of the
arrival
