In a discussion of the insurance OF
bank deposits under government SUI.
pervision, the Fort Worth Star says:
During the short time the Oklahoma
law has been in force several failures
of State banks have occurred, and.
while the depositors of these have
lost nothing, the trouble of going
through legal process to get his
money is Objectionable to the aver
age man, even though nothing is act
ually lost" The Eagle remembers
only one such failure in Oklahoma
The trouble of going through legal
process with the certainty of getting
his money is less Objectionable to the
average man than the chance of los
ing it, as too often happens under the
system We have in Texas.

The Beaumont Enterprise says:
Nothing gives a town an index of

great schools, four splendid church

TOPIC DISCUSSED BEFORE

What to Do with Them Was Interesting
Question Debated by Principal
Bamberger.

An interesting meeting of the Clinton
Hill Improvement Association was held
last night in the rooms of tho Clinton
Hill Presbyterian Church. The main
topic of discussion was What shall we
do with our backward pupis?"
1t was Principal Norris Bamberger,
of the Bergen Street School, who
broached this interesting subject, and
he elucidated his views on the matter
in a most thorough manner. He didn't
believe that whole class should be
simultaneously drilled without regard
ing the aptitude of scholars who arc
keener than others In his mind pupils
who are eager and intelligent enough
to advance should not be kept back
because others of their class fail to
keep pace with the brighter pupils.
I'm European countries" said the
principal, this obstacle has been over
ccme and the same can be done here"
The substance of Mr.. Bamberger's
remarks were that the entire school
system needs reformation.
DIR. William BleielS, of the medical
staff of the citys schools, said that
in his mind the backwardness of many
pupils was due to poor health. TN
