What Makes the Tea Taste Good

say But the Plant bureau of the United
States Department of Agriculture, through the
experiments described, expects to find out If
the loss of flavor incidental to shipment across
the ocean is due to salt air, then it ought to
be practicable to discover some means whereby
the commercially prepared leaf may be pro-
tected from such injury Whatever the
trouble is there must be way of remedying it
But first 1t is necessary to make proper
study of the aromatic substances in question:
to separate them out IN pure state, to an
alive them chemically, and to find out how
they respond to various atmospheric and
other conditions.
lnaSmuch as it is of the utmost Importance to
retain these aromatic substances in the COM
merciallv prepared leaf, the processes en-
ployed in curing the product must be such as
not to destroy or disslpate them. From the
picking of the tea to the packing and final
shipment to market it is this consideration
which chiefly demands attention. Hitherto
the methods adopted have been in accordance
with rule of thumb; hereafter. with the aid of
the knowledge, they should be thoroughly
scientific.
incidentally, it has become manifest why
the very Young leaves make the best tea. At
this stage OF their development they contain
the largest percentage of aromatic substances
In pure state.

ITO what does the tealeaf its peculiar
L and delightful aromatic properties,
This is question for which an answer has
been earnestly sought, and finally with sue
cess. Indeed, there is longer any mystery
in regard to the matter. though yet the
exact nature of the secret is withheld.
1t maybe stated, however, that tea owes its
aromatic properties to certain substances OF
the kind known essential oils and others
which present in the leaf in such minute
quantities that the herb has to be treated
chemically in one hundred-pound lots in order
to obtain in pure form even very little OF the
precious ingredients.
This. of course, makes the process expensive
But it is deemed most important to the
knowledge, not merely for scientific reasons,
but because it has important and quite
obvious bearing the interests of the tea
manufacturer and the tea importer. Tea de-
ponds for its flavor the substances in ques-
ton, and the price it brings is determined
practically by no other consideration Tea in
China or Japan costs anywhere from fifteen
cents to fifty dollars pound, according to
quality; but, though there are plenty of people
in this country who would be willing to pay
the latter price, really fine teas not i'm
ported into the United States, because they
lose their flavor if they cross the

home and in school, and as such | believe it
will have few defenders.
1t is true that there has been a noteworthy
decrease in the number and in the proportion
of men teachers in the United States within
thirty years; but that the results of this
growing influence of the woman teacher and
of the mother upon the character of the in
d1vidual boy and eventually upon the nation,
are now or are to be as described, do not for
a moment accept.
In the reports of the eminent English edu-
Gators who constituted the Mosely commits
sion, which investigated the American school
system in 1908, the absence of the man in the
school room repeatedly deplored; but |
to have discovered in the discipline, bearing,
or scholarship of the American boy at school,
in the behavior or achievements of the
American man, as found participating in the
great social, political and business move
ments of this country, any tangible evils that
might rightly be traced to the undue influence
of woman in the education of BOYS. On the
contrary, their reasons for wanting more men
seemed to consist in the fact that men teach
ers were the fashion in England, supported
by the general statement that perhaps boys,
after a certain age would better be under a
man

David and Goliath Reversed

THE old Bible story Is reversed. 1t Is now
the huge Goliath of Gath who is sadly i'll
at ease with the shepherds sling and the
smooth stones from the brook as instruments
of defense: so he must throw them away and
seize again upon his monstrous sword
with which to hack his weaker enemies.
Man control of boys has thus been linked at
the very outset of the experiment with stand
ards of discipline involving punishments
which make it imperative always that the
punisher shall be bigger, stronger, and more
brutal than the punished, else the master
faces humiliating defeat Is not this ptlful
equipment for any teacher? | am yet to be
persuaded that the healthy growth of those
moral principles which govern conduct is in
any degree developed in child man by the
deliberate infection of bodily pain.
Corporal punishment breeds resentment and
often revenge in rational creatures. Let
flogging be once restored to the schools by
authority, and then note the struggle that
will be on between brute force and the pur-
pose to secure protection from brute force,
paralleling in a striking way that familiar
contest in modern warfare between the ever
varying efficiency of ;.rmor plate the one
hand and prolectlleS on the other. This could
not be a physical conflict, because the man
behind the knout would be too strong to be
successfully resisted 1t would become an in
tellectual and moral conflict, in which the keen
witted American boy would play his evil in

fellow, and brood of other enforced immqr-
