THE ART OF SPELLING.

The New York Evening Post finds
food for thought In the result Of re-
cent spelling contests. It says:
A 12-year-old eolored girl and a 12-
year-old Polish boy are the winning
spoilers in the schools of their respec-
tive townships in Indiana. In our dis
appointment and grief over such pre-
sumption, we are driven to suggest
that some form OF protection is urgent
~ needed for what is evidently still an
inrant industry among our native white
population. Endangered American chill
dren should, until the balance is re-
stored, be required to spell 10 per cent
FEWER words and none but words less
py one syllable than those given out to
the pauper spoilers, who are success
Kully competing in our richest literary

tnat the practical compuIsion which
we put upon the foreigner to learn our

IN afralrs, was a disguised blessing
pelng one OF the surest guarantees OF
national solidarity. But IL the handi-
cap which 1t imposes is to be overcome
IN such way as is shown by the dis
quieting news from Indiana. we have
no recourse but some device which win
preserve our cultural superiority.

GOVERNMENT CLERKS.

The clerks in the various depart
ments at Washington are raising a
howl that is heard from Maine to CAL
ifornia. 1t is because the president has
intimated that they must work half an
hour longer-making their daily hours
seven and a half. They are threat
ening all sorts of reprisals and talk OF
organizing a union to enforce their de-
mands to be allowed to work an hour
less than most people-and several
hours less than a large majority OF
ge-earners.
The arguments put forth by some of
these federal clerks will appear very
fiimsy to the average employer of
labor. One of them is that they will
be deprived OF seeing baseball games.
Another is that those who are study
ing law or stenography or something
else cannot attend the afternoon class
es as they have been doing. 1t does
not seem to have occurred to them that
the people pay for their time.
One hears lot about pensions for
government clerks-and yet the very
ones who are shouting loudest against
giving fair days work for fair
days wage are also the heaviest hit
ters of the pension tomtom. The lat
ter plan has some merit-President
Tafts plan to get more work done has

CREDIT system WRONG
Newspapers Cannot Afford to Carry
Large Number of subscriptions
in Arrears.

A Velva subscriber sends to The
Forum a clipping from The McHenry
County Journal containing a letter
from an irate subscriber of the latter
paper, because he had been asked to
pay his subscription in advance; he
classed the journal as worthless .
The editor proceeded to administer
quite roast, which was probably well
deserved
For many years 1t has been the GUS
tom in the northwest to extend too
much credit on acknowledgements but
what the subscriber may be good for
the amount, but this credit is the
wrong system: in the first place the
publisher cannot afford to pay the ex-
penses of the paper and collect the
amount later, even If good; in the
next place, it is much better for the
subscriber when he knows the paper
will be discontinued when the time is
out.
Very few people realize that the sub
scription price of newspaper repre-
snts but fraction of the cost of pro-
ducing the paper-the deficiency has
to be made up from the advertising
patronage. Hence it is all the more
necessary that subscriptions be paid
promptly.
In this connection The Forum de-
sires to heartily thank it's patrons for
the manner in which they have re-
sponded in the effort to get all sub
scriptions paid in advance. The great
majority have cheerfully and promptly
responded. A paper is not worth read
ing, unless it is worth paying for, and
that in advance.

SMOKING AUTOS.

The nuisance OF smoking automo-
piles is commencing to attract atten.
ton In the cities of the east. Mem
Y bers of the boards of health of several
4 places have made formal reports ON
the subJect-showing that the public
! health is injured by the ESCAPING
smoke. The effect is particularly in
furious on young children, whose low
stature keeps their heads in the strata
OF air-where the smoke and other
noxious gases are most prevalent. In
fssiladelphia already an ordinance has
heef yaassed, prescribing a penalty for
smoking automobiles. The city nagis-
trates are INJECTING the penalty on all
who are brought before them.
The smoking automobile is in itself
an evidence of carelessness or incom-
petence on the part Of the person in
charge o. it. An ordinance penalizing
this obnoxious nuisance is In a line
with others having for their object the
employment alone Of persons compe-
tent to run these machines, SO dan

incompetent or reckless hands.
