Early Military Eand.

A little more than seventy years
ago there was no such thing as a
brass band in existence. The very
first band entirely Of brass dates. in
fact. no further back than 1895.
Prior to that time even our military
music was produced almos; entirely
from instruments Of wood. and as re-
Gently as l7Ss a fuN regimental band
consisted OF two obes. two clarInets.
two horns and two bassoons.
As showing the important par,
Played by the sounding brass" in
our bands today it Is sufficient to
mention that In an up-to-date FIRST
class band OF say. forty-two pieces,
there would probably be found from
eighteen TO twenty horns. TO say
nothing OF saxophones. which are
party clarinet and partly horp.-
Tit-Blts.

THE COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL.

Without considering possible local
difficulties, as a general observation
II would seem that the county and
city would be wasting substance by
maintaining two High schools, as the
cap sheaf OF the common school sys-
TEN. when, by combining. they might
secure one institution centrally locat-
ed, that would be better than any
school either alone could maintain.
OF course, there are questions of
administration and conflicts of au-
thority; but they are easily solved,
II politics is left out Of the question.
Let the city maintain the school, as
at present constituted. and let the
county pay its proportion toward
maintaining the High school. We
know full well that McCracluen coun-
ty will not afford a High school the
equal of Paducah's high school for
many decades to come, and we as
sumo that the education of the chill
dren of the county is the first and last
consideration in the building of a
High school.
Differences In qualification for
the promotion between city and
rural schools can. soon be overcome
by providing an examination for coun-
ty common school pupils. which, II
they pass. wall admit them to the
High school No system can ever be
devised TO make High school fit the
lower grades. The lower grades
must be developed as preparatory to
The High school.
As far as location Is concerned, all
roads lead TO Paducah. Wherever
he county High school is located
pupils will have to travel some DIST
lnce to H. They could travel TO Pa
iucah as well as anywhere else. Here
hey would find ,conveniences they
could not find elsewhere. Those who
desire to could live here during the
school year.
1t Will be cheaper for the county to
pay its share towards maintaining
the city high school, than to go to the
of building a High school
and employing competent teachers to
instruct the pupils. II the county
IfsEh school doesn't seek college men
and women for its instructors. 1t will
be the sorriest joke the officials ever
played on the taxpaying public to in
stitute that county High school. III
the county does employ college
graduates. ii will prove a right ex-
pens.ve proposition to maintain.

Senator Cox, of Tennessee, proposes
more drastic laws against pistol tot
ing" We suggest. that If the law
against homicide were more strictly
enforced, pistol toters might, by the
simple process Of deduction, arrive
at the relation between carrying a
weapon and using IT, and leave their
pistols at home. However, If Senator
Cox thinks that a community which
casually inquiries whether the man
who commits homicide with a pistol
was justified by something his victim
had said, can accomplish anything
b. imposing drastic penalties for car
rying concealed a deadly weapon, he
IS welcome 30 the experiment, and
our best wishes go with him.
