north pole / went there to make sure
that Santa Claus would not be angry
at some Of our grownups and big bad
boys who have made fun Of him and
said they did not believe in him any
way.
Il found him in huge snow palace.

Indictment of Public Schools.

FROM AtlaDtlc.
First. the pupil does not gain real
knowledge He studies about things, In an
indefinite sort of way. but never learns
the solid facts. The whole system, from
the happy kindergarten to the mimic-coI-
lege high school, is permeated with the
haze of indefiniteness.
Secondly we are told that the pupil does
not even learn to use his mind. The school
is an enslaver OF memory instead of an
emancipation of reasoning. Originality il
tabooed and servility demanded. The
curse of the lawyer. the search for prece-
dent is written on the brow OF pedagogy.
Logic and reason are not encouraged.
And thirdly, the results of our schools
are not practical. This is heard on every
hand The schools do not fit for bread
and-butter earning: they rather make "A
boy or girl unfit for the hard tasks OF
life.
A fourth count in the indictment is
sometimes added by the moralst, who
claims that the moral traits of the child
are hardly awakened. and that the boys
and girls, especially those who break the
ranks before the eighth grade is reached.
are entirely unfit to meet the severe de
mands that the temptations of life make
upon them.

RAsoR GETS 20 YEARS IN PEN.
Convicted of Manslaughter at Me-
dina for Killing His Sweetheart.

MEDINA. Ohio, March 12.-Guy Rasor
convicted of manslaughter for the MUIR
der, October g. of his sweetheart. Orie
Lee. was sentenced to twenty years in the
penitentiary by Judge Hayden today. The
sentence was given after the court over
ruled a motion for new trial.
Judge Hayden's sentence was the limit
allowed by law for manslaughter. Rasor
was convicted on crcumstantial evidence
at the close of a trial which lasted nearly
a month.
The crime was a rural tragedy which
attracted wide attention. He and Miss
Lee were engaged to be married. Several
times the wedding was postponed. Rasor
obtained a marriage license the day OF
the murder.
On the morning of October the girls
body was found along IA country road
near WadswOrth, where she was en-
ployed. Miss Lee had been shot. Buggy
wheel tracks and hoof prints near the
body corresponded with defects in the
wheels and shoes of the horse owned by
Rasor.

School Superintendents.

rTObi -AiiaHlc
The position of superintendent of schools
is unique and anomalous. 1t demands the
learning of college president. the con-
secration of a clergyman, the wisdom of
judge, the executive talents of a financier.
the patience of a church janitor. the hu-
mility OF a deacon and the craftiness of
politician. The position demands that the
superintendent manage the schools pure
ly as an educational investment for the
public, without being in any degree in
fluenced by the passions and impulses OF
the public Perhaps because of these re-
quirements that would tax genius and
divinity there are SO few real superintend-
ents If you should attend meeting OF
the National Association Of Superintend-
ents for the purpose of finding one for
YOUR home town you would be depressed
by the scarcity of frSt-claSs material for
so important place. You would learn on
inquiry that most of these men drifted
into the superintendency: they just hap
pened into the job. Some were educated
for the ministry. some for the bar some
for medicine, a few had been in business.
all of them had been teachers but only
small minority had started out i'm life
by choosing the regal following of educa-
tional leader as profession and had
persisted in their laudable ambition with
courage and perseverance.

CARSON AGAINST CRUM.
Opposed to His Appointment to Any
District Office.

In speech before a delegation of col
ored republicans from Baltimore yester-
day Perry Carson said he was opposed
to the appointment of DIR. w. ID. Crum of
Charleston. S. c., as recorder of deeds
for the District of Columbia or any other
office in the District. He had heard he
said, that Crum was an applicant for
the place. He said DIR. Crum has had
enough honor from his service as collec-
tor at Charleston, and that his record
there was good one. Mr.. Carson ex-
pressed the opinion that John G. Dancy,
the present recorder of deeds should he
retained i'm his position.
The delegation called attthe Carson
home, 934 Sd street northwest, to pay
honor to him on account of the many
years he has spent in-the service of the
republican party. 1t was headed by Sam
uel Talbot, chairman.

American Bowling Congress, which will

president of the association, refuse the
office for another year? That is the ques-
ton uppermoSt in the minds of bOwlers
from all over the country.
While Mr.. Herrmann's statement, made
late yesterday in a positive manner,
leaves no doubt that the Cincinnatian is
ready and wants to step out of the presi-
dencs. 1t is believed he will be reelected
and subsequently obliged to accept Sew

Land Entry in Idaho.

Another question that Mr.. Ballinser
will probably take up while he is in the
west is the system of land entry prevail
ing in Idaho The laws affecting the pub
lie lands of Idaho are loosely drawn and
have been the cause of great injustice TO
poor settlers who have fiocked to that
state from various sections of the coun-
try. attracted by the belief that the land
laws are poor mans laws. when. d
matter of fact the poor man had little
chance under them until Senator Borah
of Ida no took the matter up and brought
about relief.
Under the laws Il settler took up land.
but could not get title to ii until he had
reduced il to a certain point of cultiva-
| ton and had paid the Indebtedness on it.
! Reducing virgin land in Idaho to the
! point where it is aGriculturally productive
| is frequently matter of at least three
/ years. and between the time of entry
/ and the time of making the land pay
| the poor settlers have had tough time
