FOR SMALL HIGH SCHOOLS.
State Educational Department Pre-
scribes a Standard Course.

The State educational department
has prescribed course of study for
small standard High schools. This
course. distributing the subjects by
years upon the basis of five periods
per week. provides for English, three
and one-f 1fths years, Mathematics.
three years. not including commercial
arithmetic or bookkeeping. Science.
three and ne-half years, History two
and three fifths years. Foreign Lam
guage, two to four years. Business. two
years. includes above courses.
State superintendent of schools
Payson Smith says of this course:
The High school with teaching
force limited to two teachers finds a
difficult problem in offering the two
courses SO generally demanded, the
English and College preparatory
courses. This difficulty arises from
the excessive number of teaching
periods and the consequent brevity of
the recitation period The question
may very properly be raised whether
such schools should attempt to offer
both courses. particularly if the num-
Der of students in either is proper
ttonately small. In view. however, OF
the very insistent demand that High
schools undertake to. prepare pupils
for college and the manifest justice OF
providing for pupils who do not wish
the preparation it seems necessary al
present to make provisions for both
classes of students. The genera
course proposed may be a possible
solution and should eliminate the
somewhat undesirable distinction be.

VICTIM OF AERIAL. FIGHT
is PAROLED AS WITNESS.


George Kiosh, who, following his re-
lease from the hospital yesterday. was
paroled until today. was again brought
before Judge Hahn this morning and
was paroled until wanted"
Kiosh and John Tervay, a foreman in
the leather shop of Stengel & Roths-
child, at Main and kossuth streets,
were involved in an alteration at the
tannery on December II as a result of
which both men have been confined in
the hospital ever since. Kiosh was
released yesterday, but Tervay is still
considered to be in a rather serious
condition. The injuries sustained by
the men were received when the railing
of the platform on which they were
fighting gave way and precipitated
them both to the ground, a distance of
over twenty feet.
Upon QUESTIONING the witnesses OF. the
fight the police found that Tervay had
been the aggressor, and that If any
complaint was made in the case it
would have to come from Kiosh. lie
was held, therefore, not as a defendant,
but as u witness. Kiosh, up to this
morning, had not made any complaint
against Tervay. and he would not say
whether he intended doing so or not.
