THE TURKS GLORY DINMED.

Although the great mass OF Americans
warmly sympathize with the allies and con-
denim the European nations. whose greed and
jcalously made war necessary. many OF us
cannot help experiencing a, slight feeling OF
disappointment a, the weak struggle put up
by the once Terrible Turk" a showing not
atoned for by the desperate defense of Con-
stantinople. The fall of Monasttr inevitable
suggests memories of Plevna and the great
osman It fell after what was only the pre-
tense of struggle.
The fall of the city, however, while dimming
the Iuster of Turkish traditions and Turkish
fame for bravery, has added TO the laurels OF
the seryians whose exploits up to this time
had been overshadowed by the brilliant cam
paign on their Bulgarian allies. more
practical result is to leave Serbs and Greeks
free to join the Bulgars before Constantinopic
afd reinforce the attacking party, should
peace not be concluded shortly.

NOT NUMBERS MERELY.

Charles G. Maphis, professor of secondary
education at the University OF Virginia. in
paper read at the. conference for education In
Journal Of Education, makes some interesting
observations the rural high school and the
training of high school teachers.
After discussing the true aim of the rural
high school, its present status and what We
should attempt to make it and making a, num-
Der of suggestions for improving it's efficiency,
ID, Maphis says:
Eve still wrongly encourage the rural high
school TO shape its course Of study after and
@ adopt the methods of the city high school
and we still shy at making the rural high
school clearly vocational, but Insist upon
uniformity of tastes and interests.
"It Is time that we turn our attention away
toward giving proper character to the work
the schools already established are doing
An increase in numbers without increase in
efficiency and without adaptation to the needs
Of the community does little good. On paper
it looks well TO say that in 1906 there were
SO four-year high schools and In 1912 there
were l43; TO say that there were 81 three
year high schools in 1906 and 1913 in 1912:
10 say that the number of two-year high
schools has increased from Is TO l13 and

at Annapolis. will have tn quit flying

edict OF his wife. formerly Miss Helen

he married secretly In Washington on
November 18th.

According to the law laid down by
the young aviator's wife, he must

CURRENT COMMENT
Curhins the Speed Mania.

It is interesting to note that both the Penn
sytvania and the New York Central railroads
announce the discontinuance, late this month of
their eighteen hour Chicago-New York trains
ana the lengthening of the schedule TO twenty
hours. This Is in lire with the suggestion
made by the New York Public Service Com
mission, following its investigation of the Hud-
son river wreck last spring. and it Is also
SAID to have been advised by operating ex-
perts who declare that the speed required I'M
Ger The eishteen-hour schedule is especially
DANGEROUS during the winter months. II Is to
be hoped that the action taken by these two
great systems will prove to be but the first
step in general movement to subordinate
speed to safety in railway travel. Obviously
IL is more important to deliver passengers
at their destinations safely than II ia to carry
them quickly, while it goes almost without
saying that the percentage is small to the point

claiming that IL is already dead Democrats
seem to be divided in opinion, those whose
wishes father the opinion holding that it died
on November s. 1912, and others expressing
the belief that 1916 will find 1t corpse as
lively as Mr.. Bryan after his successive buriais.
1t is our belief that four years hence the
Republican party as constituted in the past
will be alive--somewhat repentant possibly.

~ the progressive party of the nation. 1t is
true that a number OF men, some radical, some
progressive and some out for the goods band
ed themselves into one body and placing them
selves under the leadership of Theodore Roose-
welt, called themselves Progressves With
such leader they were foreordained to poll
a large vote, proving, II they proved nothing
else. that the majority OF those calling them
selves Republicans we're Republicans only in

fathers were Republicans and hated the Demo-
cratic party Ergo, they were Republicans
and hated the Democratic party. For years,
however they had been fighting within the
party 10 make 1t more progressive Long since
they would have become Democrats, but for

On the other hand there are within the
Democratic party number of held on
the reservation by the same traditions which
have held the progressive Republicans within
the Republican party. Their fathers were
Democrats, their friends and neighbors are
Democrats and in their communities it is not
easy, even yet TO be a Republican.
We have then progressive and conservative
Republicans and progressive and conserva-
tive Democrats The progressive Republicans
hive already segered the ties which bind them
the Republican party. Some of them will
fnd their way back during the succeeding four
years, while the others will continue their
wandering for four more years. perhaps, to
find a final resting place within the lines of
Democracy. Not within the four years, prob
atly, but in the course of time, the conserva-
tive Democrats win take their rightful place
within the Republican party. Thus we will
have acknowledgements Democrats

Cards instead of Gifts

The Chronicle has pondered upon the burden
that the purchase of innumerable Christmas
gifts annually imposes upon the people not able
TO spend great deal for anything aside from
their living expenses and has wondered how
far the tendency Of the past several years
would lead people. 1t Is undoubtedly a fact
that most heads of families In moderate cir

of Christmas with feeling of dread and APP
