English Pupils and Their "H's."


An English schoolmaster, who has
found much difficulty in breaking his
pupils of the habit of dropping the
letter "h," has hit upon an ingenious
way of impressing such persons with
the enormity of this photographic Of
Tending.
He has a lot of "Hs" suspended from
the ceiling of his schoolroom, and
when pupil omits the aspirate from
the beginning of an English word, the
teacher releases one of the capital
letters. 1t falls to the floor, so that
the attention of every pupil in the
apartment is attracted. The offender
must then pick up the large cardboard
and carry it to the teacher. ,--...f =
1t is a worthy reform. That the
language of the costers will undergo
any improvement cannot be expected.
If American Anglophiles, who affect
to be Cockneys and Costers, because
they think the assumption shows Brit
ish "class," will profit by the instruc-
ton of this Yorkshire schoolmaster,
New Workers will have cause to bless
the pedagague.-Julius Chambers in

CHILDREN AND DIVORCE,
"A Kansas City Idea Arouses Interest
and Command atian EIseNYf1ere.

A Kansas City Idea Arouses Interest
and Commentator Elsewhere.
Kansas City is seriously considering
the proposition to have the Judge of
the Juvenile court preside at the trials
of divorce cases where the parties to
the action have children. 1t is also
proposed that the children be made
parties in the suits on the ground that
they are the real sufferers in the event
of family dissolution. Their stake"
in the family life is manifest enough
to one who will use ordinary common
sense, it is urged by the advocates
OF the plan and their rights ought to
come first.
In brief, the idea is to relieve the
children, SO far as may be, of the bur-
den of the shortcomings of the par
ents. The judge of the juvenile court
is, or ought to be, by reason of the
character of the cases he is accus-
toned to try, familiar with the needs
of children. Kansas City's expert
ence has been that a great many of
the delinquent children hailed before
its tribunal for yout )ful offenders
are those of divorced persons and that
in the main their wrongdoing can be
traced to neglect or improper training
by the parents to whom, in the grant
ing of divorce DEGREES, the courts gave
them in custody.
A strong public sentiment has been
aroused, apparently, in favor of this
novel proposal, and if Kansas City
puts it into effect its working out will
be watched with the keenest interest
by penologists and social workers
throughout the country. 1t may be
that society will some day take the
stand that unless it can be shown that
the offspring of unhappily mated COUP
les will not suffer if their parents
are given a legal separation under the
law divorces shall not be granted.
Upon the officers of the court used to
such Investigations would naturally de-
volve the responsibility of determin-
ing which parent, if either, was fit
to have the custody of the children. in
stead of having them allotted to one
parent or the other by the hit-or-miss
Dian in vogue.-Baltimore Star.

ALL SEVENTH GRADE
PUPILS TO JEFFERSON
Other Ward Schools Will
Have Only First Six
Years Work.
EMALINE BROWN TEACHER
Board of Education Makes
Payment on New
Buildings.

The seventh grade in Columbia will
be taught this fall only in the Jeffer-
son school, according to the decision
reached Friday night at meeting of
the school board. This was the plan
that has been under consideration for
some time, but not until the school
board passed favorably upon it was
the announcement officially made. The
other three grade schools, the Ben
ton, Lee and West ward schools, will
have only six grades, and all pupils
studying in the seventh grade will
go to the Jefferson school.
The seventh grade will be taught by
Miss Emaline Smith and another
teacher to be assigned by the board
later. The different studies will be
divided between the two teachers, and
each will have half the subjects.
The board authorized the payment
of $4,000 to English Brothers, the
contractors for the two new school
buildings being erected in Columbia,
$4,000 of which was paid on the high
school and S1,SO0 on the West Ward
school. The payment of $500 on the
contract for the heating and ventilat-
ing plant in the high school to the
Sodeman Heat and Power company,
was ordered.
The resignation of Ethel Fowler,
primary teacher at the Fred Douglass
school, was not accepted, and the clerk
was instructed to notify her that she
should report in Columbia for work at
the opening of school.

+ "You never had a maid to take you
about Why should Sallie need one?"
SAID the older woman to the younger
mother who had been lamenting that
Sallie had to miss lot of parties last
winter because she had no maid to
take her to them.
THAT is quite true" returned the
young mother, "but don't you realize
that times have changed since l was
la child? Things that were luXuries
then are necessities now, and l don't
know anything that is more acutely
necessary in any large city than to
have the children constantly attended
by an older person when they go upon
the streets. That, in fact, is why we
came out here to live, and know any
number of young married persons who
are building homes in the nearby coun-
try for the same reason. It really is
the only solution of the problem.
when l read in the papers of the
appalling things that are constantly
happening to children, l can't under
stand how any parent can allow child
to be unprotected for moment on the
street. The majority of parents have
to, you say. That is true, but it is
no reason why parents more fortu-
nately situated should not protect their
children properly.
"The dangers from traffic alone have
increased tenfold in the last few years,
and though the policeman's hand may
stay the motors while crowd of
youngsters crosses some street, the
last straggler has to hop nimbly to
the curb, for the waiting cars shoot
forward the instant his hand is dropp-
ed. l have seen escapes that have
made me shudder. The papers tell
us that pickpockets snatch purses
from small children. And these are
lesser dangers. The greater ones

California Girl the Coming Champion
Swimmer Of America, Says Expert.
Miss Dorothy Newkirk is the COM
Ing swimming girl of America, accord
ing to B. Goodwin Seielstad, famous
college swimmer, who tried out the
pretty l6-year-old Angeleno girl re-
Gently from the Venice pier to the
Santa Monica pier, a distance of sew
en-eighths of a mile, against a terrific
tiderip and in choppy sea.
Miss Dorothy Newkirk is a marvel
and I can understand why Annette
Kellerman refused to match with her
because she had not sufficient time
to go into training. In addition to a
marvellous physique and an indomit-
able courage, this charming young girl
seems to know the way of the sea as
If by instinct. How to battle every
cross current and escape its clutches
seems to be an instinct with her, and
she does it without loss of effort and
in the quickest possible time.
We were more than halfway to the
finish when she said: 81 guess 1 made
mistake in wearing this skirt. l
have half a notion to drop it and leave
you and the skirt both behind"
We had to swim away out in a
curve to escape being swept into the
breakers, and when we landed at San
ia Monica she suggested to me that
we swim back because it was such
long walk.
Never in my experience have 1 seen
such endurance, and she easily could
have made good her offer to swim
back.
Though Miss Newkirk is not a sprin-
ter, she has mastered the Australian
crawl" and is the only girl on the
Coast who has been able to adopt that

DURHAM. N. c., May 24-After hav-

fifty-two years, John Laws of Orange
county, at the age of So, again is in the
field as a candidate for reelection for
register of deeds. He is declared to be
the oldest officeholder in point of

political upheavals. 1t is not doubted
that he will come out victorious at this
Ibis latest-battle at the polls.
But Laws claim to distinction does
not rest alone with his political sue
cess. His matrimonial experience has
given him fame as well. At the age of
so he took to himself a wife barely en-
tered on her teens, and only recently
became the proud father of the third
child by this union.
The Vereran officeholder saw service
in the Mexican war, was friend of

PEKING, China, May 24.--Assuranoes
were received here today by United
States Minister to China w. j. Cal
houn that the Asiatic fleet, under COM
mand of Rear Admiral John Hubbard.
is holding itself in readiness for emer-
gencies which seem bound to arise as
the result of the anti-foreign sentiment
that Is spreading riot and bloodshed
throughout the empire.
Advices telling of unprecedented out
RACES on the part of huge mobs of
armed natives are reaching here from
all parts, and are daily increasing.
Word has reached here from Shang-
hal that Chuan CHA, thirty miles
northwest of Changsha, was devastated
last Saturday by rioting natives. ana
many men, women and children killed
and tortured A considerable portion
of the city was burned.
The Lutheran churches have been the
most pronounced objects of native hat
red and have been destroyed and looted.
The government seems powerless to
cope with the situation and shudders
at the gigantic proportions which the
uprising is assuming.
The troubles began with shortage
of rice crops in Human province, due to
the great floods of a year ago. This
was followed by widespread charges
that territorial rulers had forced the
natives to pay exorbitant prices for
what food could be had. An agitation
was then started against the foreign
element, it being charged that they had
increased the famine by speculation
and modern business throat cutting"
