South the insidious hook worm which
has reduced about two million Of the
Southern poor population TO pauperism
and hopelessness. The hook worm is
said to have come from Africa with
the slaves. Owing to unsanitary condi

the poor barefooted population and
once in the system, fastens itself on
the intestines and sucks the blood of
the victim. From it comes the strange
white trash known as clay eaters, and
others who drink vinegar that has
been used to saturate iron filings, In
til few years ago it was known as
the lazy disease.
The magazines have recently taken
up the fight against the disease. and
donations to carry it on are being made
by the rich.

QUIET DAY
In COURT

Today was rather a quiet day in the
federal court. there being no cases an
swering ready for trial; in fact the
work progressed at such rapid rate
yesterday that the criminal docket was
cleared.
Today the petit jury was excused
until next Monday.
The grand jury is still in session and
if any indictments should be found
against those now held awaiting the
action of the grand jury it is more than
probable that some Of these will be
tried during the present term, in case
the accused are ready But there is a
long list of motions and demurrers
to be heard.
Beginning Monday, Nov s, and con-
tinuing to the 18th. many Important
cases are docketed.
In the case against J. NJ Holding,
indicted for using the United States
malls in scheme to defraud and
which came up yesterday afternoon,
the defendant plead guilty. was fined
$50 and sentenced to five months 10
Jail at Muskogee
Another case disposed Of YESTERDAY
afternoon was that Of Carl Estes, in
dicted on a charge Of destroying a
mail box on rural route near
Wynnewood. In this case the jury,
acting in accordance with instructions
of the court, gave in verdict of ac-
quittal.

Of Attorney General West against the
Prairie Oil & Gas Company. since the
beginning Of statehood. The Prairie
company, foreign corporation. under
took the building Of a neF pipe line
and was enjoined by the fttorney gen
eral under a provision 81 the constitu-
tion, denying to foreign corporations
the benefits Of the right OF eminent
domain over public highways.
The last legislature enacted the
Strain-Reager law. which prohibited
foreign corporation from laying oil
or gas pipe lines along or across the
public thoroughfares while domestic
corporations were allowed to do SO
without compensation to the state or
property owners. This law effectively
tied up the Prairie Oil & Gas Company
in the further building of pipe lines,
and its only way Of escape was to
operate through separate domestic
company.

MUSIC TO OUR LIKING THIS.

More than once The Evening News
has been subjected 10 sharp criticism
for its insistence thai the courses
Of study at the Los Angeles Hlsh
School are painfully and sadly want
ing in those elements which 20 10
insure the greatest efficiency OF its
graduates. We have held that TO
allow the University of California
practically to dictate The curriculum
of this school, or of any immediate
school. is an error. The high school
was not founded a. a feeding institu-
ton for the university. and II has
been annexed by the Berkley insiifu-
ton TO act in this capacity, notWith-
standing the fact that only very
small percentage Of the graduates
ever enter the university. We have
commended the eoursees of the Poly
technic school in preference TO what
is offered by the school on the bill
and the position we occupy Is indoors
ed BY fathers and mothers OF the
young. The attendance at the Poly
technic and the long list OF pupils
on the waiting lis" proves that.
We visa that every member OF The
board OF education, and every man
and woman interested in educational
matters, would read in The World 8
Work. for May, an article entitled;
How the Colleges Ruin the High
Schools" Written by James J. Nun
roe The opening statement strikes
right at the hearto + the trouble in

II seems to me super1nons 10 argue
that every high school Is, In a large
degree. failure. II is lamenfable
fact TO be acknowledged that the
small number of graduates, by the
preponderance OF girls among those
graduates. and BY the present wide
spread and well-founded agitation TO
stop the economic and moral waste
OF youth between fourteen years OF
age The high school fails
because. having been created to give
intellectual, moral and industrial
sustenance to the people, II has been
eommandeered 10 feed the colleges;
il fails because, having been estab-
lished as the crown Of the common
school, ii has become the tail OF the
university kite; II fails because. haV-
ing been subsidized 10 solve the COM
pick educational problems OF adolesc-
ence. it has, In large part, wasted It's
energies upon examining few pupils

outrageous demands Of college en-
trance papers.
Following the opening statement
which the author does not wish snail
he considered as a Jeremiad, there
is a careful consideration OF the needs
of the adolescent The course OF study
he contends, needs revision so as
10 interest the pupils: the boys and
girls who attend the high schools
need more steadying work and less
of the sawdust and bones OF pendant
icism. In other words the high
schools require a release from the
shadow of the so-called higher in
stitutions
