THE LINCOLN CENTENNIAL.

There has been much discussion
pro and con of the question whether
arrangements will be complete for the
dedicatory exercises of the Lincoln
Park farm on February u. The lat
est report is that everything is in
forward shape for the reception and
entertainment of the Presidential
party.
The program will be carried out
without a hitch and in a manner
creditaBfe> alike to the State of Ken
lucky and to those having the cere-
monies in charge.
Fears have been expressed that
there would be difficulty in securing
the necessary conveyances on the ar
rival of the guests at Hodgenville /;
that difficulty, however, has been ov-
ercome and there is no longer any
question but that every obstacle will
have been set aside and all things
in state of preparedness in ample
time.
1t would be a reproach to this
Commonwealth were it otherwise.

tribution to the Nations Walhalla.

THE NEW CUBA.

General Gomez was officially pro-
claimed President-elect of Cuba by
the Congress Wednesday. The Amer
iean troops are leaving and it IS an
nounced that the evacuation will be
completed by April l. After that date
"the ever faithful isle" will be left
to work out its own destiny.
1t is problematic whether the cit
liens Of Cuba are fitted for self gov
eminent The fist assay was a
failure and dismal failure at that.
Many of the merchants and leading
men of the country are against the
new government and in favor of an
nexation to the United States.
We do not want the island. In
spite of the assertions of the press
of the world that the United States
was after Cuba and would never let
it go, this government has twice
shown that its original declarations
were made in good faith. But if the
present experiment IN self-govern-
ment proves a failure it is more than
likely that some kind of protectors

As a character builder a school
can do no better service than to cul-
tivate in the pupils, habits of regu-
larity and should have the cO-opera-
ton Of every parent. But this is by
no means true. We know that chill
dreH are permitted to absent them
selves for the most frivolous reasons.
A child fails to prepare his task and
headache suddenly develops. He is
not well enough to go to school but
does not miss a meal and can play
in the streets however bad the wealth
er.
The irregular attendance of a pu-
pill not only does injury to him, but
his absence one day requires more of
the teachers time, the next, which Is
due to other pupils. Not only this
but losing the thread of the course
of study loses interest in subject.
We notice that at a recent meet
ing of the faculty it was determined
to give additional credits for punct-
uaIity and regularity in attendance,
beginning with the second tern Jan.
25th. This seems to us wise and we
sincerely hope that the teachers will
not be disappointed in this effort to
improve the school
