Uncle Sam Teaches Filipinos TO Farm

A NOTED professor from the Univer-
IA sity of Chicago, who spent several
months in the Philippine islands as
lecturer at the teachers vacation as
sembly, conducted by the bureau or
education every year at Bagulio, the
summer capital Of the islands, re-
turned recently to the United States.
"Other nations one of these days will
be coming to the Philippines to see
how the educational triumphs have
been won," he said, in speaking of
the work of the schools there.
Without question one of the tri-
umphs of America in the Orient is
the wonderful work that has been ac-
complished there by the public school
system during the ten years since its
organization. From mere handful
of pupils, and an expenditure of a
few thousand dollars ip 1901, the sys-
tenn has developed until now 1t
reaches into every town and nearly
every village Of the island, and last
year instructed more than 100000
boys and girls. The Philippine gov.
eminent spent more than $3.250,000 of
local revenue for education.
The services of more than 5000
American and Filipino teachers are
employed in the various schools OF
the islands as supervisors and class

w ASHINGTON.-N that 1t seems
W certain that two new states will
be added to the Union by March 4,
New Mexico and Arizona being slated
for promotion from territories, the
flag factories run by the government
are In for some busy times. 1t will
be necessary first for the departments
here to decide how the new stars
shall be placed on the flag. The field
Of the flag is becoming crowded with
stars and 1t Is no easy matter to re-
arrange them so that the section re-
served for consultations may not be
inartistically jumbled. This duty de-
wolves upon officials of the army and
navy departments who must meet
and decide how the new stars repre-
senting the two new states are to
be placed on the Geld of the flag.
Then the work Of rearranging the
field on all the flags owned by Uncle
Sam will be begun, and a gigantic
task it will be.
The army flags are all remade at
the various government depots. the
work being given to women who are
widows of army men or daughters
of veterans with some claim on the
government for employment. The ma
val flags are usually fixed up by the
sailors themselves, the Jackies being

case the animal happens to be the
two-legged variety that brief pause
before pulling the trigger is enough
to save human life" More than $50
persons were killed last year in hunt
ing accidents. This was considerably
larger than the number in 1909, which
in turn was SO per cent. in excess of
the 1908 fatalities. "Of the AZ killed
80 far this year." said DR.. Palmer.
"the largest number were reported
from Michigan. with Is deaths, New
York coming second with nine, Wash
ington and New Jersey being tied for
third place with three fatalities each.
"In proportion to its population the
United States leads the world in the
number of hunters within its borders.
Unfortunately 1t also leads in the pro-
portion of fatal hunting accidents.
There is five times more interest in
game laws in this country than in
any other country. We estimate that
there are almost 100000 American
hunters. In several of the western
states the hunters constitute as much
as 10 per cent. Of the population"

Adding Two More Stars to the Flag

as they have a great deal Of leisure
time the sailors manage to do their
own official needlewOrk when the
flags are called in for the addition OF
stars and the Encouragement of the
field of stars.
The addition of one star to the flag
sometimes proves an easy task. The
amount of work involved depends
upon the position of the stars already
on the flag If there is room at the.
bottom of the last row of stars for
the addition of another then 1t is
merely a matter of adding that extra
star and this is a comparatively easy
job. But the field of stars seldom
lends itself in that kind of manner
to the work of adding additional
stars. The symmetrical arrangement
of the stars is a matter of the utmost
importance and this requires much
much thought and skill on the part
of the officials to whom is entrusted
the work of designing a field with
the extra stars added.
The first work when the design of
the new flag has been sent out to the
arsenals, Is to rip off the stars that
have to be placed in different posi-
lions. This work is done by rows OF
women who are armed with sharp
pointed knives. They place the star
| to be removed on a padded base that
holds the cloth taut. Then they care
fully rip out the stitches until the
star is removed. This work goes on
for weeks and sometimes months, for
all the flags in the country must be
rearranged. AS the stars are ripped
off they are dropped in baskets and
not used again, new stars being sewn
on to replace the discarded ones. The
new stars are cut by means of die.
