THE SOUTH GAINING FRIENDS

The South is gaining powerful
friends. And perhaps not so much
friends, whose motive is avowed sym
pathy, as merely clear-eyed observers
who are just and have courage By
the multiplication of these will her
way be made smooth Mr.. William
Archer completed last winter long
journey of observation through the
Southern States. From his conclus-
ions, printed in the July "McClure's"
we detach two sentences:
-. the South is in the main act
uated by just and far-reachiug, if
not far-seeing. instinct / believe
that the problem, far from being un-
real, is so real and so disheartenfngly
difficult that nothing but an almost
superhuman wisdom, energy. and
courage will ever effectually deal
with it,"
We wish that these convictions
were in the heart of every New Eng
lander who hastily calls meeting to
pass resolutions on the negro prob
lem and every Northern editor who
has a formula, long conventionaliZed
in which he writes, periodically. a
scolding for the South. In the Out
look" the other day, Lyman Abbott
spoke of his sympathy with the in
tense feelings of the Southern white
his strong confirmation" of the en-
lightened views of President Eliot
and Ambassador Bryce about the
South's ultimate problem. To these
names may be added that of Thomas
Wentworth Higginson. survivor of
the generation of Abolition leaders
and commander of colored regi-
ment during the Civil war. In de
clining an invitation to attend a con-
ference on the status of the negro. he
deplored all such agitation, which
makes the problem of the South only
more difficult. The day may yet
come when the North will formally
acknowledge that the South's stub
born refusal, since the Civil war, to
yield an inch of its stand in the mat
ter of the relations of the races was
an epochal contribution to the white
race in America, which, under the
outrageous difficulties which the
North pressed down upon the South,
could not have been done differently.
Probably it would be impossible to
prophesy a day more. unhappy for
this continent than the one on which
the Southern white should abate one
iota of his race-pride.- Golfers

WILL BETTER
THE SCHOOLS

At the meeting of the County Su-
perintendents' Association. held at
Greeley. Superintendent j. II. Shri-
Der of Boulder advocated the holding
of county and state associations of
school directors for the purpose of in
creasing the efficiency of those rep
resentatives of the people in the con-
duct of their offices and consequently
the efficiency of the schools entrust-
ed to their care. Mr.. Shriber advo-
Gates legislation making it the duty
of board members to attend and per-
mitting per diem and expenses or
mileage.
The Greeley Tribune says of the
paper:
THE effort to dignity the labors of
school boards and to increase their
efficiency is not only commendable.
but entitled to universal support.
Mr.. Shriber holds that the plan
would soon bring about closer rela-
tions to the theoretical working of
the school system, to the teaching
force and to the vital problems of the
school Progress has come in the
main from the professional side, and
he hopes that the administrative side
may become more quickly and hearth
ly responsive to progressive ideas,
more ready for effective cooperation.
He would put the traditional man
agement Of the rural school to the
tests set by comparison with the mod
ern ways by means of these meet
ings for information and debate upon
the practicability of proposed innova-
tions. We quote him as follows:
Il believe that the responsibilities
pf "a gahpp1 nn q
those of the teacher. And should not
each in his line be as well equipped
to meet his duties sufficiently"
THE school board is more than a
alary-dispensing Office or a bureau
of school house construction 1t is
more than a mere custodian of the
school funds and school records. Its
deliberations affect the health, the
happiness and the success of pupils:
affect teachers-their tenure of po-
sition, efficiency and promotion"
The keynote of the n. Il. A. was
industrial education and the improve
ment of the rural school. One heai S
it everywhere. The Improvement of
the conditions of country life is the
subject of tremendous awakening
of public sentiment all over this
country. Good roads, transportation
of children to larger and better
schools, the establishment of social
centers and the breaking up of the
limits of the too narrow social unit
are some of the things advocated and
already in practical form in many
states. Mr.. Shriber has suggested a
way of securing better knowledge of
what plans among the multitude sug-
gested are worth attempting and "a
way of securing unification of effort
upon the most desirable and best
things for the Improvement of tae ru-
al schools
The Colorado Teachers Association
is Interested in the general move
lnent. 1t has helped to secure some
legislation in the interest OF better
ruIal schools.

A GUIDE To A
SUICIDE GRAVE
LSnecial to INC Sentinel.l

Berlin July 24.-"A Guide to Sui
eide is the more or less attractive
title OF a little volume just pub
lished. the author of which signs
himself C Henry"
G. Henry has an agreeable, almost
lively style. His purpose in writing
his ''Dun'ts" to intending suicides
seems to be a desire to make self de-
struetiou as agreeable as possible for
those who survive, whether kin,
friends or fellow dodgers, rather than
to deter intending suicides.
In his Introduction Herr Henry re-
grets that suicides are becoming more
frequent in Germany and that per-
sons ending their careers do not seem
to give the step the careful thought
il deserves.
"Those who contemplate suicide, "
says the author, must take every
precaution that their plan be carried
out without interruption, so that the
act may cause little trouble or dis
tress to those closest to him or her
who departs hurriedly. For example,
suicides have the habit of leaving
letters explanatory of the act and of
It's cause. These matters concern on
ly the principal actor in the tragedy.
who should never write such letters,
for they can cause only grief and
pain.
Then Henry discusses methods Of
shuffling OFF this mortal coil, begin
ming with drowning. If he adopts
this method. the intending suicide
should carefully choose the proper
moment and place; it is folly to jump
into the water when other persons
are near he will be dragged out.
Nor should he jump into cold water;
despite his desperation, its frigidity
makes him inclined to save himself
from something disagreeable, and
call for help. He should select a
| lonely place, where the water is
deep and where there are no rushes
or reeds to impede him.
The author does not approve of sui
eide by shooting or by the knife the
| resulting scene is not agreeable to
persons of sensibility, he says. And
he reprobates self asphyXiation with
! Illuminating gas, man has right
to do as he pleases with his own
| life. but he must not endanger 9TH
ers' lives What would happen to
person who enters a gas-flled room
with light?"
| N''N' 'ts' '''7-'iit7 ''''F A'''h'' VI
| flying to ills one wots not of, Herr
| Henry concludes that. after all, pois-
oning is the safest and surest method
but you must be careful of the poison
you select. 1t must act quickly. and
there must be enough of it.
Nowhere in the book is the truth
about suicide so tersely expressed as
in the lines:
when all the Establishments of life
are gone,
The coward sinks to death-the

BIG MEN WHO WERE
COMMERCIAL TRAVELLERS

Marshall Field was commercial
traveller. so were John Wanamaker
and Tom Murray SO also were
Dwight l.. Moody, the great evangel-
list. and Richard Golden, the English
statesman and writer
Ex-Governor Frank Black of New
York followed the road with his
sample cases before beginning his
legal and political career. Walter ID.
Moody, one of the chief executives
of the Chicago Association of Com
merce, was for fifteen years road
salesman. This list might be extend
ed almost indefinitely.
Occasionally the commercial trav-
eler leaves the road to enter one of
the professions. According to Every
body's Milton j Foreman, one of the
leaders of the Chicago bar. president
of the Chicago bar, president of the
Chicago Charter association, alder
man, and a power in local politics.
was star hat salesman and took his
law books on the road with him until
he was well grounded in the rudi-
ments of the profession.
Then the fact that his calling as a
travelling salesman gave him prac-
tically six months of clear time each
year, permitted him to attend law
lectures and almost complete his
work as law student without in
terfering with his business on the
road. Again, when he was ready to
enter the lists as a practicing law
yer he had the advantage of ample
capital and wide business acquaint-
ance.
Another commercial traveller took
a course in the University of Chicago
after he was married. There he be
came interested in Egyptology and
later between his regular CONNER
cial trips on the road visited Egypt
and studied the ancient ruins at first
hand. This brought him into print
in a series of travel articles and he
found that he could write and write
well Later he drew upon his ex-
perience as a commercial traveller for
literary material and scored sue
cess.
That many commercial travellers
are men of religious convictions is in
dicated by the fact that the travelling
men have large and flourishing
order devoted TO the spiritual inter
ests of The men of the road. II is
called the Gideons and has its head
quarters at GAINESVILLE Wis. city
which is typical for many others in
that il has home center for a large
number of travelling men. In cities
of this kind are generally to be
found local clubs of societies compos-
ed exclusively of commercial travel
ers and heir families.
