YOUTH AT THE HELM.
Reasons Why Tho Young Mon Should
Go to The Front.


s"I entirely approve" said an elderly
man, "of the modern tendency toward
putting youngsters at the heln1.' In
the first place it adds to the interest
of living, and in the second place it is
good for the youngsters.
Our knowledge cannot embrace all
things. The things that we know the
most accurate are the corrections of
our blunders. There is. no other way
of lodging, fact, SO firmly in the
mind of the average intelligent person
as to have it find its place there as
the correction Of humiliating blum
der.
"The inexperienced make blunders.
Some of them do little else but make
blunders. Therefore If they are fairly
intelligent they learn fast and event.
ually become useful, and by the time
they are replaced by youngsters they
know how to find entertainment in
seeing others go through the educa-
tional process which they themselves
have undergone.

uating class at Yale university: You
youngsters think that we old fellows
are fools; we old fellows know that
you are A poet wrote:
No other wisdom's half so great as
youth. 1t does not grope.
But leaps to Honors citadel and storms
the gates of hope.
There are few who are willing to
learn by the slow process of acquiring
knowledge from the successes of 9TH
ers; there are many who are eager
unwittingly to put themselves in the
way Of acquiring it through their own
failures, AS a man who has little left
for him but to interest himself in the
contemplation Of the drama of life I
am decidedly in favor of the latter
method. 1t Is more interesting.
But you say that, the interests en-
trusted to raw youngsters must suf-
fer? Well, what. of it? It's doing the
youngsters. good and bringing them
by what. is perhaps. the shortest route
to condition in which other interests
may be safely entrusted to. them, and
it is source Of entertainment for
those who have been through the same

Tho conquerina Church.

Rev. Frank De Witt Talmage,. fa-
nous Presbyterian preacher of Phila-
delphia, recently gave utterances to a
prophecy which must have been some
what startling to his hearers. Owing
to the. training being given to Cath
olic children in the paroci1ial schools.
said Mr.. Talmage, the Catholic.Church
is to become the universal Or con-
quering church of Americas future.
"1f the years which the child passes
before he reaches his twelfth mile
stone are the most important years of
the human life,' said the preacher.

ing for the physical and mental and
moral and spiritual training Of our
little children? I'm

that our children are not receiving

they should. How are, they to get

mark me, on account of the parochial

"And when l say this am not at

Beecher, l am no bigot. would in

be a Catholic rather than to have him

prefer one of my boys to be a. good

have my children good Presbyterians
than good anything else.
But whether like the Catholics OF
no, one fact is certain, the Catholics
train the children for the church. The
result: The Catholics are simply go

REPORT CHANNEL In
GOOD CONDITION

At the meeting OF the Philadelphia
Chamber Of Commerce last night Com
gresham FouIkrod read communication
from Major Herbert Deakyne. Of tho
Corps OF Engineers. stating that river
channel conditions in the harbor are now
better than for practically year. The
communication in part read:
'Reedy Island, Baker and Liston ranges
show depths OF %. 2g.s and 26.2 feet, re-
apecHvely These are the most import
ant results Of the recent operations Of the
dredge Delaware.
New Castle Range has depth Of 2s.3.
Deep Water Point Range, 2s6. Cherry
Island Range 2s.S and Bellevue Range % 4
feet. The increase in depth on Deep Water
Point Range is another result of the re-
cent work OF the Delaware, willie the
decrease on New Castle, Cherry Island
and Bellevue Ranges shows the effect Of
the constant shoaling to which the river
is subject.
Such shoaling has occurred recently
at the lower end Of Schooner Ledge Range
but the dredge Delaware is now operating
there and expect that a few days work
win show a material increase in the
depth over this shoal"
