A Praper.

Once more a new day lies before us,
our Father. AS we go out among men
to do our work, touching the hands
and lives of our fellows, make us, we
pray thee, friends of all the world.
Save US from blighting the fresh flow
er of any heart by the flare of sudden
anger or secret hate. May we not
bruise the rightful self-respect of any
by contempt or malice. Help US to
cheer the suffering by our sympathy,
to freshen the dropping by our hope
fitness, and to strengthen in all the
wholesome sense of worth and the
joy of life. Save US from the deadly
poison Of class pride. Grant that we
may look all men in the face with the
eyes of a brother. If anyone needs
US, make us ready to yield our help
ung%rudgingly. unless higher duties
claim us. and may we rejoice that we
have it in US to be helpful to our fell
low men.

EDUCATION MUST
REACH The CHILD
State Commissioner Kendall AID
vocates Individuality in Tuition.
THE NEED FOR ESSENTIALS
"Readin,' 'Ritin' and 'Rithmetic" Must
Be Ingrounded in Public Schools
Mastery of Printed Page
is Greatest Achievement.
Especial Trenton Correspondence

Especial Trenton Correspondence.)
Trenton.-State Education Commits
sioner Calvin N. Kendall made an ad-
dress at Bridgeton before the Cumber-
land County Teachers Association,
more than 200 teachers from all over
the country being present at the High
School. County School Superintend-
ent Glaspell presided. In his address
Commissioner Kendall was exceeding
ly practical, and made a forceful plea
for practical education in the public
schools. He suggested that the school
is endeavoring to teach every child,
and in so doing must reach every child
individually. There was no such thing
as an average child, declared the Com
missioner, no two pupils being alike,
and it was absolutely necessary to
teach the child and not the children.
The fundamental act of the school, he
urged, was to give the child the power
to read intelligently. The mastery of
the printed page is the greatest
achievement in education. The schools
cannot do everything for the children,
for the child is not sufficiently long
in the schools. Pupils should be given
more particularly the commanded the
essentials of education, reading, writ
ing and numbers. He held that chill
dren could not we'll be taught geo.
grapy, history and hygiene if they can
not read. The Commissioner also urg-
ed that the schools adopt manual
training and agriculture, painting out
that children should be trained to the
habits of industry. Following the con
ference Commissioner Kendall with
the County School Superintendent, AS
semblyman Albert r. McAllister and
Mayor George Hampton, went owe
much of the city in an automobile. He
visited the West Jersey Academy pro-
perty which the city of Bridgeton re-
Gently purchased as a High School
site, and he was particularly impress
ed with the property, which contains
about five acres. The Commissioner
is especially anxious that all schools
shall have about them large grounds.
The City Park was visited and several
desirable sites were pointed out to
him for the proposed Normal School,
which is being urged for South Jersey
in the Legislature.

else bill to tax virtually everybody's
income when it is $4,000 or more a
year passed the House, $50 to 40. The
Democrats voted solidly for it, and
carried so Republican votes with
them. Forty regular Republicans were
the opposition.
The bill now goes to the Senate,
where its fate is a guess. Many Sena-
tors said that if on analysis they found
the House measure would tax all
classes of people alike they would sup
port it. Democratic Senators, with a
few exceptions, are expected to vote
for it. Democratic Leader Martin ex-
pressed the hope that the Democratic
Senators and the progressive Republi-
ans might put the bill through. Re-
publican leaders are depending on the
Presidents veto to check revenue re-
vision bills from the House.
The Excise bill, though primarily in

general pension legislation, which
seems sure to be enacted. Democrat
ic Leader Underwood held his MAORI
ty intact through the passage of the
bill. Not one Democratic vote was cast
against it, and the a was pass
ed exactly as framed.
An outburst of applause from the
Democratic side accompanied the an
nouncement of the vote, and was re-
newed when it was learned that 80
Republicans had voted for the meas
ure.
The bill would extend the existing
Corporation Tax law.to include a tax
of l per cent. on the yearly net in
