NEW PLANS FOR
STATE SCHOOLS
STATE SUPERINTENDENT WILSON
WOULD SEPARATE TEXTBOOK
AND EDUCATION BOARDS.

Oklahoma City, Okla, oct. T. A
radical departure from the present
system of the state educational and
institutional administration, provid-
ing for separation of the state text
book commission and board OF educa-
ton and that the state superintendent
of education be given an option IN
the naming of members of the two
boards, are among the recommends
tions of State Superintendent X. IL.
Wilson in a report to Gov. Cruce. The
two organizations, which are now one,
would have no administrative connec.
ton, and under the state superintend-
ents plan the governor would be Inn
tied in appointments from a list OF
eligibes handed him by the super
intendent. In the instance of the
textbook commission the superin-
tendent's list would contain twenty
one names, at least one but not more
than two of whom shall be primary
teachers, high school teachers, county
superintendent, city superintendent
and rural teachers, who at the time
of appointment must be actually en-
gagged in Oklahoma public school work
and shall have at least five years ac-
tual experience in Oklahoma schools.
The superintendent recommends
that the state board of education be
reduced to five members to be Sc
lected by the governor from list or
twelve names submitted by the state
superintendent, a majority Of the ap-
pointees to be actually engaged In
school work, and in cases OF vacan-
cies the superintendent shall submit
three names for the governor to ap-
point therefrom 1t is also recon-
mended that the eleemosynary in
stitutions be placed under board OF
three, one OF whom shall be secretary
and dean at salary of $1,000 per
year. He also suggests that the state
university be made Independent OF
legislative appropriation by authoriz-
ing a mill tax for its support, The
same argument, he says, would apply
to other educational institutions. but
meas e of the state of the state uni
versity it is absolutely necessary.

New York, \. Y, Oct. S.-There are
more sick grandmothers, dead cous-
ms and helpless brothers and sisters
in New York today than there VIII
be until the beginning OF another
worlds's serias of baseball games.
Men, more Independent in business
enterprises than the little. fellows
who must invent needless excuses to
get away from work, have frankly
agreed to shut up shop" and Journey
up to the Polo Grounds at an early
hour, to be among those present
when the first signal is given for the
game that will mark the beginning OF
the fight between the New York
Giants of the National League and
the boston Red SoX OF the American
league for the baseball championship
of the world.
In the event of rain, the game will,
of course, be postponed, but as there
is rain check attached to every
ticket, the managers of the games,
which are fighting the ticket specu-
lators more vigorously than ever this
year, have protected the public against
having to stand in line so long again
to secure admission pasteboards. The
line to the Polo Grounds ticket box
formed just after midnight this morn
ing, as positively no seats have been
sold in advance except 5000 or 1000
for the grand stand
The agreement for the worlds ser
les calls for the games to start
promptly at . o'clock. A game will
be played every day until one side
wins four The umpires selected for
the all ll-important series are Silk" p.
Loughlin and w. Evans of the Ameri-
can league and C. Klein and G. Rigler
of the National League.
Tomorrow game is slated to take
place in Boston, and so on until one
side has been declared victor.
III llN tNCil vi thN
teams will stay in the city wherein
they are scheduled until such game is
played.
This jump from one city to the 9th
er over night may prove hardship
to the players, who will thus be oblig-
ed to travel over night, but it will
increase the interest in the seven
game series and will make it impos
sible for New York, in this case to
secure an undue advantage by playing
more than the opening game on their
home grounds.
After months of cogitation it took
the members of the National Commits
sion and the representatives OF the
two clubs concerned just two hours
and fifteen minutes to arrange for
this years struggle, including what
looks like the most satisfactory settle |
ment of the much discussed ticket |
question as yet adopted.

To some, each new spring comes
with the freshness of first one, and
there is an evanescent charm about
1t which no other season possesses.
1t Is long series of progressions,,
beginning with the first soft southern
breeze, the melting of the snow and
the earliest warble Of the pioneer blue
bird, tiny patch of sky flown down
to earth, the unlocking of mountain
streams, the soft pussy willow buds
and the twilight piping of frogs. There
Is premonition and expectancy in the
air. Then with alternating showers
and sunshine, the dreary-looking earth
takes on little by little a fresh robe
of verdure, pale green at first, half
hiding the skeleton outlines of the
trees and wrapping the landscape in
misty dream of beauty. There are
varying shades; here and there where
there are oaks, splotches of brownish
purple, and along the hillsides great
masses Of blossoms, dogwood and
judas tree and billowy reaches of
white and pink orchards. All along
the way in dooryards are white and
purple lilacs loading the air with
fragrance, and the fields are spangled
with golden dandelions.

A RUSSIAN DISCLOSURE.

An almost incredible revelation Of
the possibilities of corruption in the
mixture Of autocratic and bureaucratic
government In Russia Is strikingly
presented in the result of the investi-
CATION Of the murder of Stolypin, the
late prime minister. The official re-
port does not directly accuse any of
the secret police, but 1t makes a state
ment that amounts to a clear implica-
ton that four heads of the secret po-
lice had embezzled from the appropri-
ations and had resaon to fear exposure
by Stolypin. The grim satire of a
police system that perpetrates crimes
against their victims has long been
evident in Russia, says the Pittsburgh
Dispatch. But when 1t reaches the
degree Of assassinating a prime min
lister whose offense was the attempt
to punish thievery makes an appalling
illustration of the degree to which the
Russian system places both high and
low at the mercy of unscrupulous rasI
Gals. Even now the truth of Stolypin's
case would seem incredible If it were
not recently established that the kill
Ing of the Grand Duke Sergius seven
years ago was done with the practical
connivance Of the police tchinoviks.

That men of wealth in increasing
numbers are deserting the ranks of
'the idle rich" and devoting their
time, talents and part of their
money to useful public service, is one
Of the encouraging fruits of democracy
In this country. The charge has often
been made that very wealthy men do
not bear their Just proportion Of the
public burdens, and possibly many ot
them do not. Possibly many of them
lack sense Of responsibility. During
the past quarter of century, how
ever, there have been in American
public life, or in semi-public life, a
great number of men who feel that
riches, as well as noblesse, oblige,
says the Boston Globe. 1t would be a
superfiuous task to enumerate them
the men in whom social conscience
has been developed and who find the
performance of public duties more at.
tractive than polo or golf.

UTILITY OF EXPERIENCE.

Because a man disapproves Of new
ways of doing things, is no reason
why he should be accounted a back
number" In many ways the methods
to which he has been accustomed all
his life, and which were instilled into
him from boyhood, are the foundation
stones upon which the newer methods
are built Their basic principle Is the
same. but whereas In former days they
were intended to meet only specific
conditions, in these later days 1t is
found necessary to develop them suf-
hciently to cover possibilities which
were undreamed of generation or so
ago. Experience undoubtedly is the
best teacher, and fortunate indeed is
ne who can turn the lessons Of the
past to good account in the solution
of present-day problems. To do this.
however, he must possess, besides the
advantage his experience brings, suff1-
cient insight and sufficient foresight
to absorb something of the newer and
more "up-to-date' ideas. Otherwise
he will find himself crowded out and
denounced as back number" Com
mon sense should teach him that con-
ditions are constantly arising which
were never taken into consideration
before, for the reason that they never
existed, and common sense should
also teach him that the methods for
merly in use cannot always be do
pended upon to reach these conditions.
1T is absolutely necessary for a man
to keep up his interest in the world of
affairs and to take part in the activi-
ties of life If he wishes to continue to
be factor in their development.

1t isn't very nice task to punish
pussy If you're fond Of her, but there
are times when she must be chas-
tised. This is how to do it, according
to Louis Vain, the great authority ON
the fascinating feline. In the first
place. don't actually strike the cats
says the London Answers. A blow
merely numbs it. And when the spine,
which is the most sensitive part, is
struck-particularly if the cat is old
1t is likely to spring at the striker
When pussy does anything wrong,
frighten the wrongdoer by striking a
stick on the ground. A cat is most
sensitive to sounds, and will connect
this new noise with what 1t has done.
1t feels more intensely than most ami
mails; hence its supposed savagery in
cases. Cats are highly electrical, and
1t is very good to have one perch on
ones shoulder or knees.

The courts and the imperious ruler
by divine right do not always pull to-
gether, as appears from a case in Ger
many, where tenant of the emperor
sued his landlord and won in two
courts. There was a precedent for
this in the reign of Frederick the
Great, who wanted to remove a mill
that spoiled his view from Sans Souci,
but the courts upheld the sturdy
miller through controversy which,

MEN AND woMAN,s CLOTHES,

1t may be laid down as a general
rule that the ordinary man never
knows when a woman's dress fits or
not-unless, of course, 1t is an extraor-
dinary misf1t. His replies to inquiries
on that point are, as practically all
husbands will attest, based on what
he thinks the woman thinks Of It
When wife, for instance, comes into
the room wearing a new dress, with a
smile on her face, and turns around
several times and asks him what he
thinks of the fit, he replies without
hesitation that it is all right-that he
likes the pattern exceedingly and that
he doesn't think he ever saw her wear
anything more becoming. If, on the
contrary, she comes in with corrugated
Drows and inquiries in distinctly dis
satisfied tone what he thinks Of the
dress, he instantly remarks that,
though it looks fairly nice, yet there
Is still something about it that he
doesn't like. He can't say exactly
what it is that seems out of keller,
Dut there is certainly something
wrong with that dress and 1t ought to-
be altered at once. But it is only
Just to the men to say that their igno1
rance Of what constitutes the fit Of a
dress is paralleled by the feminine In
ability to realize what goes to make
up a well-ftting suit for a male per-
son. AS a rule, woman's advice
with respect to a mans suit is the
most dangerous thing a man can take.
