For several years a committee Of
Brooklyn teachers has been acting
as a sort of employment agency
for high school boys when they
leave school, either at the end of
the four years course or earlier.
Part of the committee efforts has
been to prove to boys eager to
leave school and to 90 earning mo-
ney that education is a CONNER
cial asset.
AS illustrations the American
Educational Review takes the case
of the four sons of foreign i'm
migrant. The father was a labor
or, working at trade. His wife,
careful aud thrifty woman, kept
account books, from which the pa
rents were able to estimate that it
cost them $1,000 to support a boy
and keep him in school until he
was IA, when he was graduated
from the grammar grades.
His eldest son left school at ii
and entered an office. He took
some commercial training at night
school and was promoted from
time to time until he became head
of one of the departments. At the
end of the first year he received
S2GO, and his wages were advan-
ced until when he was 80 he vas
getting 1892 year. For the six
teen years he had received a total
of $SSS4.
The next brother in age also
went to work in an office at IA,
but afterward learned trade, at
which he had been working for
seven years when he was 80. He
was then earning $1,000 year and
in sixteen years had received in
all S12,61O.
L he third son continued in school
until he WAS II, the cost to his ia
Their being 1857 more than for the
older sons. He then went to work
for contractor and builder, at
tending classes in the Cooper In
stitute at night In his first year
he received only 1852, but by the
lime he was 30 he was getting
$3.50, and altogether in the twelve
years had made S13.152.
The father was able to send his
'ourth son to collegs-spending on
lim S2241 more than he had on
he two older boys, and he studied
profession. He began the prac.
ice of his profession at the age of
Y at a salary of S72O, but at 30 he
vas making $4,000 year, and in
be eight year his total earnings
lad been SO, APO.
There is the further considera-
ion that the wages of the two old
r sons probably reached their
Daximum at 30, while those of the
ther two are likely to increase.
he experience of these four is
striking refutation
t the assertion so often advanced
y parents that the final years of
high school course are useless SO
ar as business is concerned.

MAY PRINT OWN STAMPS
GREAT BRITAIN LIKELY TO

For Many Years the Work Has Been
Done by Private

Stamp collectors will be interested in
the announcement that Great Britain is
likely In the near future to commence
printing it's stamps. This printing is now
done by private contract and has been
SO done for many years. In the same
way the government documents in Eng
land are printed by a private firm. and
no one ever hears Of government print
ing Office. All this is very remunerative
for the contractors. but as the number of
stamps used is SO large it is possible that
the business OF printing them will be
taken over by the government at the
expiration of the present contract.

it is said that his private collection,
which is very complete. is worth $3.50,

IN NERVOUS CONDITION.
William R. Bailey Under Treatment
at WASHINGTON Asylum Hosnital.

William r. Bailey, who is said to be In
very nervous condition, was arrested
in Anacostia yesterday afternoon by
Policeman Lusby of the eleventh pre-
cinct and charged with failure to support
his wife. Bailey, who is tifty-six years
old. is a carpenter. His wife swore out
the warrant, she said, because she was
anxious to have him taken TO hospital
and given treatment. At the police sta
ton the charge was changed to >in-
sanity. and the carpenter was taken to
the Washington Asylum for treatment.
1t is probable that he will be discharged
from the hospital when he RECEIVERS from
his nervousness. Bailey lives near Con-
greSS Heights.

abou: 700 miles due west of the French
coast when the Amerika sighted her last

had drifted some 600 miles to the north

since her abandonment she has been re-
ported by passing vessels, making steady

Director Ralph OF the bureau conceived
he idea of having one machine do all
he printing at one time. and this was
inalIy done. Formerly, when the money
vas returned TO the Treasury from the
bureau for the blue seal and denomina-
.ional letters or numbers. it was counted
there and turned over TO the treasurer Of
the United States. " hen the new plan
was put into effect the money was count
cd at the bureau after printing, and ship
ped 10 the treasurer's office In the big
vans that are guarded through the streets
by half dozen blue-coated officers, one
Of them mounted. The treasurer, how
ever. would not accept the bureau count
final and has insisted on making a
count after the money reaches him.
He is bonded, however, and will not be
responsible for the money unless counted
oy his men.

Designed by George v.

The present Canadian penny stamp,
bearing the head Of King Edward, was
designed by the Prince of Wales, now
George V. 1t was worked up from pho
tographs and is considered a fine speci-
men of the stampmaker's art.
If the change in the manufacture OF
English stamps is made it probably will
be accompanied by a change from cleo
trotyping to engraving. The English
stamps are at present electrotyped be-
cause they can be printed in this way
after the paper is gummed. If engraved
they have to be impressed before the
paper is gummed There is not much diff
ference in the cost of the work when
such large quantities are produced, and
the engraved stamp is a much higher
specimen of workmanship.
The present consumption of penny and
half-penny stamps in the United King
dom is about 100000 a day. If the
change is made from private to govern
ment manufa cture it is possible also that
there will be another innovation In put
ting the place of origin on the stamp.
This has never been done. At first it
was an oversight, but there was never
any trouble over 1t, and, as it seemed
rather a distinguished assumption, the
mistake was never officially recognized or
rectfied.
