snalrs pace. The contrast between the time
commonly taken for the erection Of school
building and that consumed in the erection OF
a private building of similar size is sufficiently
eloquent 10 he convincing.
Sometimes the excuse is offered that the popu-
lation has shifted. and that there is really
enough school room, only it is not properly as
tributed We believe il is true that while IN
some parts Of the city there has not been
nearly enough room in the schools, IN DINER
parts schoolhOuses have not been filled. But
that is a condition which business methods
should easily meet. Such changes in Dopuiatloh
do not occur suddenly. They are gradual ana
continuous 1t is the business of officials 10
study them. through the school census. and TO
provide accommodations where they are needed
or are sure 10 be needed in the near future. 1t
is a mistake 10 plan schoolhouse construction
according 10 present needs and present distrl-
button OF population. Let us suppose that IL
takes two years to build q schoolhOuse-it gen
orally takes longer. though il should not take so
long Then plans should he made now and work
should he begun now 10 supply the needs which
il is mathematicay certain will exist two years
hence II that were done and that method OF
planning and working were adhered 10. we
should soon have an end of this discreditahle

AIIATION At RHEII[S-

The instructions given To the naval sttache
of the American Embassy in Paris to attend and
report upon the apronautic contests at Rheims
this week we'll advised. That airshps
may prove quite serviceabe to the navies
Of the world as 10 the armies is not at all I'M
likely. AS Yet the function Of these vehicles
cannot be distinctly foreseen, but the British
government has thought il worth while 10 give
an order for the construction of One-an aero
plane by the way-for its navy, in addition to
those which are intended for the other branch
of the military service. The aviation meeting
ut Rheims was conceived primarily in the in
terest of sport and incidentally for the benefit
Of builders of airshlps. but in the trials which
have begun there can hardly fail to be useful
hints regarding the fitness Of the competing
machines for duty in war
Though the number Of entries at Rheims Is
reported 10 be thirty eight. only one type of
airship is being tested. Preference has been
given 10 aeroplanes, doubtless because actual
flight with them has been accomplished much
more recently than with dirigible balloons.
Such patrons OF aeronautc experiment as IT.
Deutsch evidently consider the development OF
the heavier han-air machine deserving of
greater encouragement than that of its rival
at least for a while Still. there are now two
distinct classes of aeroplane. following the

outstrerched sheet and the other like the
WHghts. having two. \ comparison of the
monoplane with the biplane, which is now pos
sible for the first time may prove one of the
most valuable features of The contests which
have just begun.
Americans will note with satisfaction that
though neither of the Wright brothers is pres
ent they are well represented. It IS doubtful
If the Dayton inventors themselves could have
handled their aeroplanes with greater skill than
did Messrs. Tissandler, Lefebvre and Lambert

CHINA. JAPAN AND OTHERS.

The recent official statement Of the substance
~ the memorandum for the settlement Of the
Antung railroad dispute between China and
japan. which is now supplemented with the OK
PLANTATION that ii separates the commercial dues-
tiOns connected with the railroad from the DO
litcal aspects of the case, will be generally re-
earded by impartial observers as satisfactory
so far as il goes. That Is 10 say, it dispOses OF
the immediate subject Of controversy, to wit. the
right of Japan, under the supplementary agree
ment of December 90, 1905, To transform" or
"imprOye'-the phrase OF the original text may
he translated either way-the railroad between
Antung and Moukden. II is agreed that japan
has that right, upon the execution of which
she has already entered and that agreement ap-
pears TO accord with the intent OF the compact
OF 1905. as IL certainly does with the commercial
interests OF Eastern Asia For Of the need OF a
complete reconstruction of that railroad there
can be no question. The existing road WAS con-
fessedly built for temporary military purposes

Of civilian usage ashore, is undoubtedly entitled
10 consideration by the naval authorities on its
technical merits. The departure from the time
hOnOred formula, dear To old-fashiOned seamen
and Indispensable 10 the writer's of sea stories
and plays, Is said 10 undermine discipline.
Whether il does not is beyond the capacity
of landsman and n layman TO determine. Yet
undoubtedly it marks tendency to changes in
manners and conditions of life aiOat which are
OF genuine significance.
The man-Of-war's man of to-day is an entirely
different person from his predecessor Of fifty
years ago. The elimination OF sailing power ard
ld-fashOned seamanship and the conversion of
a man-of-war into floating battery have Ell
tirely altered the duties and qualifications OF the
crew who serve on il. The tar of convention
and tradition has become an artilleryman afi1at,
a skilled handler of intricate machinery, Il
trained artisan rather than an able-bOdied sea-
man in the old sense. lie retains the garb and
some of the manners of an earlier era but he
does not work or live after its fashion or in it's
spirit The quality of the enlisted man has been
greatly improved because modern standards are
more exacting and pay is better Possibly if he
has dropped saying Aye, aye SIR 1t is because
he feels that the phrase belongs 10 the past
which is so rapidly disappearing.
The navy Is extremely conservative. Ii re-
tains the marine policeman on the theory that
the sailor is as Enthusiastically and danger
Ous as the old although few officers really think
that sailors not as capable of maintaining
discipline and good order without outside re-
strant as soldiers on shore are. The marine
afloat is an anomaly. He will disappear, and
il may be that most of the other inheritances of
the old order will also vanish and thar soon the
only sailors left who dance hornpipes, hitch
their trousers, shift their guilds of tobacco from
one cheek to the other and say, AYE aye, sir"
with the true old salts JUNCTION will be the
sailors who tread the stage and give flavor to
salt water novels.

RACING CAR TRAGEDIES.

The tragedies at indianapolis are said to have
produced a strong effect upon the crowd at the
automobile races, and upon the drivers of the
cars. They certainly should have done so. Yet
il is 10 be feared that this effect viii prove to be
only temporary, and that long before a year has

titions will invite if they do not cause slmilac

OF the kind occurred on Staten Island there were

racing and no more such freakish racing cars
Yet every year since then has seen the practice
repeated on an increasingly extravagant and
dangerous scale. and we have little doubt that
these Indianapolis tragedies will he similarly

The strsngest thing about il is that such prac-
