An African Virtue Not Ours.

Have you ever heard of a country
where babies never hear harsh words:
There is such place, and it is in
darkest Africa, where the mission
aries find plenty of work to do. There
the people never quarrel in the pres
ence of their children. P. A. Talbot.
who has passed many years among
them told recently of the customs of
this odd race The Ekoi,' said he,
are devoted parents and they have
curious beliefs as to the advent and
death of babies. One superstition
forbids all quarreling in the house
where there are little children. The
children, they. say, love kind looks and
gentle voices, and if these are not to
be found in a family they will close
their eyes and forsake the earth until
they get chance to be reincarnated
in less quarrelsome surroundings.
Talbot, however, pointed out that the
people have not yet grasped the i'm
portance of fresh air and sanitary
living.
Every kernel has its she'll" Holmes
said and here the crude shell where
the first law of God is unknown, CON
tains d kernel of wisdom which may
well be studied and adopted by those
who take il upon themselves to teach
If fewer harsh words We're heard by
children, coming from the lips OF
their parents and others, fewer
groWn-ups would have the inherited
tendency to growl and curse. Chill
dren who hear their father finding
fault with their mother, and acting in
general like dog with sore head are
liable to consider it a customary way
to vent their own spleen, and allow the
notion TO grow up with them. Chill
dren who hear their mother constant
~ nagging her husband, and saying
bitter and hateful things to him, or of
him or others, cannot reach manhood
and Womanhood without carrying the
faint in their hearts if not upon their
tongues.
Even though the virtue be founded
on superstition we can safely imi-
tate The E.koi' by having our brain
storms in private with the partner of
our joys and sorrows. Better still
have it out alone in the wood shed
may effectively kick ourselves into
better temper without the prospect OF
being seen.

Correspondents of the New York
Times have been debating the question
of tine lowest practical balance upon
which bank can care for an account
without a loss" and contributor who
apparently speaks from the bankers
standpoint has fixed the sum at be
tween two and three hundred dollars.
The expense OF conducting an account
can be determined. he says by dividing
the banks expenses by the number OF
accounts, il being borne in mind, OF
course, that small depOsitor may be
so uneasy or reckless or eXigent per
sor hat his business demands more
bookkeeping than that of many more
substantial person. one of our smaller
trust companies estimated. some years
ago. that it could not afford to keep the
account cf q man whose balance was
not sufficiently large to yield 81
wear. That seems reasonable, even a
moderate allowance. 1t is obvious that
the costly organization of city bank
does not tend to encourage small ac-
counts. If depositors realized this, a.
tncy probably would if they paused to
look into the matter, they would more
highly value the convenience which In
so many instances are rendered as
courtesy and not for profit.

Editorial Comment.
college Domination"

(New York Tribune)
The revolt of the High schools
against what the state superintendent
of public schools in Wisconsin called
the ''intolerable impertinence" of col
leges in dominating them took the
form at the meeting of the Natlohai
Educational Association of a resolu-
ton against the requirement by col
leges of more than one foreign
language and in favor of their ac-
ceptance as electives for entrance of
"all subjects well taught in High
schools The feeling is an old one
among High school educators that
their institutions are unduly crampeo
by the rigid lines of the preparation
for entrance required by colleges. Bu'
it seems to us that the resolution
adopted by the High school represeh
tatives proposes to substitute for col
lege domination of High schools High
school domination of colleges.
If colleges were not to require more
than on foreign language, in response
to the resolution of the Boston meet
ing, why should not the High schools
get together some time soon ana re-
solve that the teaching of all foreign
languages is "undemocratic" and use
less? If any subject well taught II
the High schools should be accepted
for entrance how could colleges order
their affairs and have definite ends
to be attained through the pursuit OF
definite courses? What is the gan
from having education dominated
from the bottom up rather than iron
the top down?

trict We're principals, was tried before
Judge Kelly at Wardner, more than
five years ago. The quarrel originated
when one of the women alleged that
the others fence was on her ground
and arrest followed. Judge Kelly in
structed his constable to impanel a
jury of u women. This created a lot
of merriment because of the utter lack
of knowledge by the women as to le-
gal terms and the duties of persons
sitting in jury. However, they re-
turned a verdict, which is a matter of
record in the annals of Shoshone
county. Our respect for Idaho is not
noticeably increased by the infOrma-
ton that it held the first feminine jury,
but to own judge with that amount
of genius and tact is credit to the
entire Pacific West
