possession of their castles. so nowadays
many OF us would like to take the place
of our street railway "barons' and in
their places would do likewise. AS some
wise man said. Human nature is pretty
much of a muchness."
The parallel that it does seem worth
while to draw is the parallel between
what these German cities did centuries
ago in defending themselves from the ex-
tortion practiced by the robber barons of
the middle ages and the example they
are setting to the world today i'm SHOW
ing how the public welfare may be pro-
NOTED by efficient municipal action, in
proving by their experience that il is not
necessary to pay tribute to ''robber bar
ons OF the present day to secure high
degree of public welfare
As we said along the Rhine today we
see where alongside some of the old cas-
ties their baronial occupants erected
chapels to salve their consciences and
insure their souls against future confia-
grations; but these did not avail to save
them and their strongholds from passing
away with the evolution of a new civili-
cation On the other hand some of these
oid-time barons also underwent a process
or evolution. Instead of marauders they
became public protectors and earned their
living BY waging warfare against COM
mon enemies.
| do not think our modern "barons'' can
thwart the process of evolution by gifts
or libraries and picture galleries They
may. however. by Transforming their
methods, gain salvation like those old
time barons who survived-.y becoming

GERMAN STREET CARS.

FROM the engineering News.
In all my street railway riding i'm Ger
many l have not yet seen a crowded
street railway car Only once have l
seen passengers standing inside a car
The Germans recognize the necessity of
making street railway service flexible. to
provide for variations in travel at diff
ferent times, and they attach trail cars
behind the motor cars. In even such
small cities as Heidelberg a train con-
sisting OF a closed motor car hauling an
open trail car is regularly run.
American street railways have provided
for increased traffic by putting on larger
and heavier cars, but the Germans have
met the same problem by running trains
of two or three cars. The advantages OF
the German system to the public are eX-
tremely great. and / believe they are al
most great To the street railway. Tne
floors of German street cars are low; IKE
the American street cars of dozen
years ago They are far easier to get in
and out of than our high-fioored Ameri-
can cars, when are designed to accom-
modate the car builders rather than the
convenience of the travelling public.

are even cleaner than the Boston street
cars: and those who know how high the

cities will appreciate what a compliment
this is Not only are the cars clean, but

And not only are the cars clean. but the

MAKING THE DUMB SPEAK.
Methods by Which Mutes Are
Taught to Utter Words.
rom the New York Medical Journal.


Scripture remarks that the following
exercises are typical OF those used I'm the
best schools for deaf mutes: Breathing
through the nose and mouth are first
taught. The teacher breathes through the
nose on a slate or a mirror and shows the
two moist spots: the child learns To inai-
tate this. The mouth breathing produces
one spot. The low position of the tongue
is necessary for proper speech. Ii is
taught by showing the position and using
the mirror. and by breath exercise.
This latter rests upon the fact that the
child cannot produce good sized spot on
the slate unless he keeps his tongue
down. Tongue gymnastics are neXt-used
to timber up and train the muscles which
have never received the proper develop
ment. The tongue is protruded. retracted.
moved to each side. turned up, etc.
Tongue training preparatory to various
consonant sounds is introduced. Vibration
of the vocal chords is taught by feeling.
The pupil puts his hand on the teachers
chest and also on his own. He thus
learns TO make a tone He learns to raise
and lower the voice and by careful drill
Is able TO make a fairly good tone.
The physiological alphabet consists OF
set of diagrams giving the typical posi-
ton of the tongue and lips for the chief
sounds OF the language Combinations OF
consonants and vOwels are now read at
sight. Through these combinations words
and sentences are developed LIP reaulhS
of words and sentences is taught by nav
ing the patient watch the teachers lips
while she distinctly enunciates some
word. Thus he learns to pick up objects
off table. to point out parts OF tne DouS,
to obey commands. etc. When DEAFNESS
is acquired after the person mas learned
to speak the teaching OF lip reading
should begin at once. The voice then re-
tains its natural character and the person
can go right along with his education.

ENGLISH WOMEN IN SPORTS.
More Than Ever Interested in Out
door Pastimes.

rom Inc NcV 1oFk Sun
The English woman is becoming more
of sportswoman than ever. This
season she is playing more golf, she is
going in more extensively for automobile
ing and aviation, and she has taken up
shooting with increased enthusiasm.
The sale of automobile outfits for
women has been larger than ever be-
fore, and it is noticeable that most of
the buyers drive their own cars. and
do not need the assistance of men in
making their purchases. They know
exactly what is required and demand IT
for themselves.
Golf is far more Of a craze than in
previous seasons, and IL Is played with
a businesSlike attention to the game
that necessitates the least fashionable
and most serviceable outfit. Women
play at mems clubs whenever they are
allowed, and when at Il popular resort
they find they are barred from the links
they speedily form clubs of their own.
Five years ago there was practically
no demand for guns for women. NOW
the manufacture of 4 lighter gun Tor
woman marksmen Is an industry IN it
self. while even girls of thirteen and
fourteen are learning To shoot straight
with guns specially made for them
Cycling is about the only sport which
is less popular. and that Is largely due
TO the fact that the automobile has
made the roads dangerous and I'M
pleasant To the cyclist on account OF
the clouds or dust in the wake of an
automobile.
IT has taken a very long time TO in
terest English women in swimming.
MANY members Of the London Bath
club are adopts at this exercise, but IL
has been exceptional TO find a woman
swimmer at seaside resorts. This year,
however. teachers are busy everywhere,
and their pupils range from very young
girls to elderly women, all ANXIOUS TO

LESSONS FROM GERMANY.

From the Engineering News
We Americans can profit BY studying
German street railway practice-and in
deed ali matters in connection with pub
liz welfare in these German cities. 1t
greatly interested me 10 find that while
all the cities on the lower Rhine had
municipal ownership and operation of
their street railways, in Strassburs the

that the Shrassburg cars had advertising

teresting speculation whether the fran

prevalence of French ideas ana systems
instead OF German.
IL is exceedingly interesting, also, to
recall that these cities along the lower
Rhine were prominent among the places
where in the middle ages. the Ideas that
lie M the basis of modern democratic
society first fourished. IL was these
cities, growing prosperous from the traf-

English in China's Schools.
the 81. Paul Dispatch.

From the ~. Paui Dispatch.
An imperial decree has been issued in
China providing that English shall be
taught in all the schools where 1t now
Is optional. The further provision is
made that English is to be the ianguag e
i'm use in the institutions of higher learn
ing. 1t is proposed that when students
are sent to Picking for final examination
after graduation they shall be examined
through the medium Of the English lam
guage." The purpose of those at the
head of the government Is to make Eng
fish the language of the educated, the
official and the business classes, and u-
timately. of course. the common means of
communication throughout the empire.
The reasons for the proposed adoption
Of our tongue arc plain. There Is no
spoken language that is common TO all
China. The dialects I'm the various parts
OF the empire arc so very different that
men from one district cannot understand
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1910-09-11

men from neighboring province. There
are said TO be more than a score of those
dialects. and the result is confusion and
difficulty. The correct written language
may be understood i'm all parts of China,
but even it IS inadequate for the purposes
OF modern development and progress. The
ministry of education says the official
chinese is not adapted for the teaching
" present day sciences, and English is
adopted in the interests of education and
progress.
The reasons given for selecting English
in preference to any other language are
summed up in the statement by the min
istry of education THAT "of the foreign
languages English is most extensively
used in the world. 1t was the first in
troduced into China and is most widely
employed here. The number of English
text books imported is far greater than
those imported from other countries. 1t
Is. therefore. proposed that in the differ
ent schools the English language be
adopted"
