delivered against high schools all over
the country. It seems to be the gen
eral opinion among persons who are
qualified to judge that the high schools
Of today have been developed alons
wrong lines. Some of the criticism ut
tered by Professor Carey is quite as ap-
plicable to the high school of Topeka as
it is to the schools he is more familiar
with; particularly that part OF it where
he says: Much OF the instruction in
the high schools should be more con-
crete and less abstract and bookish.
Many high schools in the state are dis
sipating their energies by Offering more
variety of courses in study than is
wise"
And if the members of the schools
and education committee Of the Com
mercial club make an honest investiga-
ton of present conditions in the local
high school they win find that these ara
the very reasons which initiate against
it's effectiveness in providing its pupil :
with educations that are thorough and
of value to them.

THE SCHOOL QUESTION

Quite properly, the committee on
schools and education of the CONNER
cial club has taken cognizance of the
discussion which has been going on of
late concerning the desirability of bet
tering the administration of the affairs
Of the public schools Of Topeka and so
changing the courses of study that
their pupils will be equipped with more
serviceable educations. At a recent
meeting of this committee a call was
sent out to all Of it's members urging
them to visit the high school and in
spect the work as it is now being car
ried on there for the purpose of report
ing back to the committee at another
meeting Of the committee which is to
be held on February 25 All investiga-
tons of this sort ought to help clarity
the atmosphere in this particular, but
it may be pardonable to suggest that a
large portion Of the present committee
in question is inclined to be prejudiced
in favor of the present school system
and it's administration, in view of the
fact that among it's membership are
two Of the present members Of the
board of education, one of whom is
running for reelection as regular, .
city superintendent of schools and the
engineer and purchasing agent employ
ed by the present school board. This
makes six members of the committee
who have had quite hand in develop
ing the existing school system along
the lines it has taken. 1t may be looked
upon almost as a working majority of
the committee for there are few COM
toll 81, III
turn out in full force to attend commit
| tee meetings and at the last meeting of
this committee there were only nine of
the seventeen members in attendance.
The committee. in a circular letter
that was sent to all its members, char
acterizes the current criticism of the
local schools as charges of so serious a
nature that if unrefuted they will result
in irreparable harm to the fair name of
Topeka. In other words, this commit
tee is of the same opinion of other gen
tlemen of the city who have voiced the
rather ridiculous sentiment that an
agitation to better the methods Of the
administration of the affairs of the
i schools and to make of more value the
courses in the schools is going to injure
the reputation of these schools in the
eyes of the outside world. If the mer
of this mind have given any attention
to the matter at all they are probably
convinced Professor C. P. Cary, super
intendent of public instruction in Wis.

state from which it will never recover

THE DEMOCRATs.

Democrats from all over Kansas have
been hobnobbing with each other here
for the past 48 hours. 1t was the oc
cssion of their annual rally in the
states capital on Washington's Birth
day. And the gathering. from the first
meeting Of the state committee until
the eliminating event. the big ban
quet of last night. was marked by
more genuine enthusiasm than has been
displayed by the members OF this party
in this state for years. That's saying
a good deal, too. for the Democrats of
Kansas are the most optimistic aggre-
cation of politicians on the face of the
earth. Year after year have they gone
down to defeat only to come up suli1
ing again with ideas of certain victory
the next time. It was only three years
ago that they came near knocking down
the big persimmon in a state campaign
and it is their firm conviction now
that they will walk away with the
honors when the votes are counted after
the election OF next fall.
They have it figured out that their
prospects were never roster. The well
known detection in the Republican
ranks, especially in this state, is as
AtOdlA5 SAVE ~ lHOiI many NOulQ0 VI
the past. They have it all figured out
that the disruption in the Republican
legions means success for them If they
can get a strong ticket in the field,
and that is what they say they in
tend to do. They are even figuring on
winning a few congressional honors,
and as they take a peek across the
national horizon they see nothing but
victory in the next presidential cam
paign. Certainly their outlook is an
encouraging one. as they see it, and it
is little wonder that they are enthusi-
astic to a degree.
But then, politics is a peculiar and
an uncertain game. It's almost as
tickle as love. No one can tell exactly
just how it will turn out. And besides,
the Republicans have always had the
habit OF playing the game in most mys-
FERROUS ways. Time after time during
the past decade have various factions
| of Republicans been fighting with each
ether in Kansas and throughout the
| ration at times when election days
were far removed. On the arrival of
those occasions, though. they always
! seem to forget their differences of the
| other day and go after the enemy
with such concerted efforts as to over
| Whelm him.
Still, one never can tell And the
present IDEAS of the Democrats of vic
| tory in the near future may be more
than dreams. The people in free states
are always restless lot. They change
| the personnel of their government Off
| Gals sometimes for a no better reason
than that they Just want a change.
Anyhow, the Democrats of Kansas are
a. bully good lot of chaps, able and hon
est, and always fighting according to
their own ideas for the common good.
If they should happen to get in power
in Kansas the people of the common
wealth would not have to lie awake
nights with fear that their ship of
state would not be kept on an even
| keel.
