However great the opportunities o.
the school may be along physical and
hygienic lines, the fact remains thai
the purpose Of the sound body is but
to be the instrument Of the trained
mind and that the great work Of the
school is to train and develop the
mind Of it's youth.
From the inception of the public
school system. 1t has possessed the
ideal Of giving every boy and girl the
opportunity to receive that learning
which shall equip for life's service. TIC
that end q long school age has been
provided and to grammar grades have
been added the High and Normal
Schools and the University.
But with splendid ideal, much re-
mains to be done to achieve it, and IT
may be profitable to consider some OF
the problems which remain to be
squarely met.
In the first place, despite the ideals
possessing 1t, the United States is the
most illiterate of several of the leading
nations, as the following table will
show: Number of illiterates to whole
population:
Germany. 1880.
Sweden, Norway, 1-1250.
Switzerland, 1900.
England, Scotland and Holland. 1-4o.
France, 1-16.
United States. Ito.
In Florida over 20 per cent OF those
above ten years of age are lliterate,
and Of these In every II is white.
With this tenth submerged in illit-
eracy to become tools OF INSCRIPTIONS
leaders or to be led, through ignorance,
into crime. it becomes imperative for
the school to reach the younger gener-
alton and thus within the next genera
ton stamp out this menace.
But let 1t be noted that the public
school, the national factory for the
perfecting Of citizens in tho COM
munity, does not reach onehaf Of the
population for which It is intended. In
Pensacola there were at the last school
census. 5000 boys and girls between the
ages Of s and 81, of which but 2S44
were enrolled in the schools ana but
1858 in attendance. Estimating the at
tendance at the private schools Of tho
city at 800, it Will be seen that even

be possible to have parade of far
greater magnitude than that which

TEACHING CAREFULNESS BY
PROCLAMATION.

Inasmuch as Vermont's per capita fire
loss is considerably higher than that Of
the country as whole, there is need for
greater care in Vermont for the pre-.
vention of fire. Hence, the proclamation
of Governor Mead setting aside Satur-
day, October %, as Fire Prevention
Day." on which occasion to call atten-
tion to the need for more secure sur
roundings of destruetible property, ought
to prove of some value to the state.
Some good, homely advice as to clean
ing out furnace fues and chimneys, look
ing after the heating apparatus and
cleaning up the debris about ones prem
Uses is included in the proclamation OF
the governor, 1t ought not to be neces-
sary, to be sure; but unfortunately peo-
pie are careless. However, now that
their attention has been called to the
matter, there is no reason to wait for
October 2S before taking mp with the ad-
vice of the executive. In fact, it may
prove to be dollars in their pockets to
attend to the matters at once. If they
wait till October % it may be too late.

immediate action is taken. Therefore,

YESTERDAY IN BARRE.

The Times desires to commend the
efforts of those who arranged the cele-
bration of Columbus day in Barre yester-
day Having no precedent to go by and
being, necessarily, somewhat handicapped
on account of the lack of time, the COM
mittees nevertheless presented days
entertainment which was very good and
which, if taken in its true significance,
must have attained the purpose of the
new legal holiday in Vermont, which was
to fittingly commemorate the discovery
of the new world by Columbus Begin
ming with the parade of the forenoon
with its allegorical floats and other fea.
lures, continuing with the program of
sports in the afternoon and ending with
the historical exercises OF the evening
and the social event following, the day
was a sane celebration of the great event
in history.
In fact, it was so good a celebration
that one might wish that the same en-
thusiasm be displayed in that great ma
tional holiday, Memorial day, which is
falling backward as far as popular mani
festation of interest is concerned. Per-
haps because of the more solemn nature
of Memorial day, it would not be within
the realm Of propriety to go into some
of the bizarre features which character

"FIRE PREVENTION DAY"
Gov. Mead Designates October 20 as
Time for Personal Investigation


Time for Personal Investigation.
After calling attention to the fact that
the fire loss in the United States is
enormous and that the per capita loss in
Vermont, 1896, is even greater than that
Of the country by 90 cents, Governor
John A. Mead Of Vermont has issued 4
proclamation, setting aside Saturday
October 2S, as Fire Prevention Day.
Continuing his explanation of his rea
sons, Gov. Mead says:
"The leading Vermont fire insurance
company in the year ending August /,
1911, paid to its polieyholders and for
expenses S5l6,446.70, every dollar of
which had to be collected from our reo-
pie in premiums and assessments. The
commonly accepted idea that insurance
companies stand the loss has no founda
tion in fact Premiums are based and
assessments made of necessity, so that
the public pay the entire loss on insured
property to the limit of the amount
written The balance falls on the indi
vidual having the misfortune to suffer
from a loss. The unprecedented destruc-
tion of created values in the United
States in view of the experience else
where seems entirely unnecessary. If
the interest and attention of our people
can be aroused, a saving OF several hun
bred thousand dollars each year may be
effected in Vermont alone, which. If used
in the development of our natural re-
sources, the construction and mainte-
nance of better highways or in more
liberal expenditures for the education
OF the young, would result in an incalcu
liable benefit to all our people ultimately.
Believing the welfare of Vermont so
demands, ], John A. Mead, governor, do
hereby designate Saturday, October 2s.
A. d. 1911, as fire prevention day, and
do hereby call upon our people to devote
the day to the removal Of debris from
their premises, TO see that the heating
appliances in their homes are made safe,
to carefully examine the hues and chin
neys and to perform such other work
as may eliminate hazard by fire. Boards
Of education should personally examine
the institutions in their charge; city and
village authorities should cooperate with
them and with the public generally in
the adoption and enforcement of such
rules and regulations as will prevent this
enormous and constant drain upon teh
resources of our state. Drills in the
public schools might be established and
information be disseminated, that would,
to a considerable extent, aid in the pro-
lection of life and property. / invite
