Child Study and Education.

In this day of juvenile courts,
vacation schools, playground
movements and congresses on
school hygiene it will surprise no
thoughtful man to hear that in
Paris one of the most eminent of
the French psychologists, Prof.
Albert Binet, has established a
remarkable laboratory for the
scientific study of ''the physical,
mental and moral value" of chill
dren. The study is not academic :;
it has a practical pedagogical
side, and those who are connect
ed with the laboratory believe
that every great educational cen
ter ought to have a similar insti
tuition, in order to separate the
normal from the more or less alb
normal children and to adapt the
courses and methods of the
schools to the respective capaci-
ties Of the several classes of
pupils.
Take children at any given age,
and an examination of them will
reveal the existence of a certain
average type as we'll as of super
ior and inferior types. Some
children at IL have the develop
ment of the average child of nine
years of age. Some are maturer
and can easily accomplish tasks
that are beyond the power of the
average child. Again, examina-
tion reveals differences of nerv-
Gus organization, capacity and |
temperament, and throws much
light on fitness for these and un-
fitness for those studies.
These are things which modern
education recognize as valuable.
Special schools are now establish
ed for abnormal and manifestly
weak and under-developed chill
dren, but much more remains to
be done in the direction of sepa-
ration, of adaptation, of safe
guarding health, of deciding on
proper discipline and other treat
nent, and this can only be done $

WASHINGTON LETTER.

w 1Ol Wv LII l LIN
The Presidents last message
to Congress will, in the estima-
ton of the leaders of the party,
go a long way to prove to the VO-
ters of the country the folly it
would be to interrupt the great
work in which the Republican
party is engaged either by the
election of a Democratic Presi-
dent and a Democratic House, or
by the nomination and election
of a reactionary Republican can
didate who would be obligated to
the very men who procured his
nomination to break away from
the doctrines and policies of Roo
sevelt and to choose a different
course. 1t is the knowledge that
Governor Hughes cannot secure
the nomination without obligat-
ing himself to the anti-Roose-
welt faction in such way as to
render it impossible for him to
carry on the work even along as
radical lines as he might be dis
posed to, which makes the Pres
ident regard the Governors NOM
ination as something to be aver
ted at all costs, and as for the
other candidates, or would be
candidates, there is not one who
is not opposed, in his heart, to
the policies laid down by Mr..
Roosevelt except, of course, Sec
retary Taft.
The Presidents last message
proposes things which he real
ICES cannot be accomplished at
this session of Congress but his
long experience in the White
House has taught him the futility
of expecting Congress to do any
thing the first time it is suggest
ed. Movements in Congress, as
among the people, must grow
This is probably a
wise dispensation of Evolution
for it gives time for all objec-
ions to arise and be considered |
and Legislation to which objec-
ions are insurmountable can thus

lent goes right on as if there
we're to be no end to his term,
arrangements for a
evision of the tariff next spring,

Had You
Planned to do
Any Papering?

Well, by far the most particular
part of all your plans is to make
sure that the right paper goes on
the walls.
The cost Of the paper is worth con-
sidering-but style, newness, suit
ability is your main lookout.
For it is quite possible for you to
pay us be roll and get new de-
signs, while at other places you
may pay as high as 40c roll, and
still have patterns away behind
the times.
The hint should be plain enough.
We've whole NEW stock to
show you-a bright, dependable
lot OF paper. Wall paper that you

There are people who seem to
think that the fact that the ban
kers are generally opposed to the
Aldrich bill is evidence that it is
a bad measure. There are other
people, however, who cherish a
suspicion that even bankers are
sometimes selfish and that there
is a bare possibility that the ban
kers would prefer a measure
which would enable them to make
greater profits such a bill as the
Fowler bill, for instance.

Ito declare that it is the rarest
thing in the world for any three
of the members of the Judiciary
committee to hold the same view
on anything, even the time of
day." Of scourse, Mr.. Cannon
has been opposed to any legisla-
ton except the Aldrich bill at
this session and did not want the
President to send in another
message.
The Aldrich bill has been de-
bated in the Senate and passed.
1t would have passed much more
promptly had not Senator La
Toilette refused to permit an u
unanimous consent to a day for a
vote, which has always been the
custom in the Senate, where no
rule limiting debate, such as is
possible in the House, is permit
ted. The purpose of the Sena-
Tor from Wisconsin in refusing
consent is not clear. He merely
said he might want to talk some
more-he has only talked all of
three legislative days thus far
and did not want to be limited
in any way.
Practically all of the evidence
regarding the location of the
armor belts on naval vessels is
now in and it remains still an
academic question as to whether
that on the older naval vessels is
too high or too low. There is
much to be said on both sides and
the average layman can probably
never decide it to his own salts
faction, but it is a source of sat-
tisfaction to learn that all diff
Guilty has been obviated with the
more modern vessels by making
the belt wider so that the experts
are all agreed that with them
there is no danger to fear regard
ng the location of this important
protection.

The President has sent to Con-
greSs a message defining his leg
iSlative programme and urging
its prompt enactment into law.
This programme is the product
of various conferences at the
White House in which the Presi-
dent has been put in possession
of the views of all the interests
concerned and has had made
known to him the attitude of the
leaders in both houses of Con-
gress. 1t includes a declaration
in favor Of a revision of the tar
ltf; an amendment of the Sher-
man antitrust law; limitation of
the powers of certain courts in
the use of the injunction in labor
disputes; passage of an employ
ers' liability bill passage of the
Aldrich financial bill. Certainly,
each one of the five measures
embraced in this message in
wolves perpleXing difficulties and
will have an effect far-reaching
on the business and economic
conditions of the country.

Fsoa LEsilE's NEENiN MRS. TAFT IS HE MAKER IF HER HUSBAND
At Crucial Moment She Con- vinced Him That It Was His Duty to Quit Bench and Enter Politics.

HOT SPRINGS, Va. Nov I2.-Mrs, William Howard Taft has decided ideas on the question of woman sui frage. Her idea of the place of wom en in politics is that she should be content to vote and exercise her in fluence in her own family or social circle in behalf of the candidates she deems best fitted for office. Mrs. Taft arrived here yesterday with her husband who selected this quiet little resort as a fit place to rest after the arduous political cam. paign which he has just passed through and to make his plans for as. suming the duties of the presidential office on March 4.
 While the next president sat in a big armchair at the side of the open fireplace in the cozy Harrison cot tage and took long afternoon nap today, Mrs. Taft talked of the inter. est woman should take in her bus. bands career and how she can best conserve his welfare.
 Most men in public life get then wives entirely out of the way lu campaigning times or keep them com pletely in the background, but from the very first Mir. Taft approved oi Mrs. Taft saying what she wanted tU say and her manner of saying it. There was therefore no restraint in Mrs. Taft's expression of her views and as she always does she spoke m straightforward, simple manner. 'tIt seems to me-" said Mrs. Tan ' thOuRhtfully that a woman can hPSl promote her husbands career by a graceful, tactful management of his i social and domestic affairs. She must l be te ready and willing hostess and thoroughly alive to the requirement.: of her position"
 T think a woman should be content with voting" said Mrs. Taft when
 asked how far she thought woman
 might go in assisting her husband DO l litically.
 'I do not think I approve of womeT eleetioneering-at least not in thu country. It is different in Englant
 and other places where women art lagitating suffrage, but it is a thini not well adapted to coniitIoIs in .thi' country As it is carried cn here nC w0nan would be able to campai g vi5n Ter husband or fpr him. I me
