| consider this the most important
part of the school course for this year.
Moral training is essential to the de
%yClopmcnt of a perfect man or woman
as eating healthy food is to the body.
The States is interested in the develop
ing of good citizens. for they are most
useful to the State, as well as easiest
to govern properly. A band citizen is a
very expensive article, first because he
must be carefully watched that he does no
mischief to others; and second. because
if he commits Il wrong it costs the State
thousands of dollars to convict, punish
ami keep him in restraint; hence, upon
the fletcher falls the duty to develap
good citizens for the State. The teacher
is the hired missionary for this object,
and the teacher who fails to accomplish
this has lone an irreparable injury to
the community and the State, besides
not rendering to the State good service
for the money.

version as the purest English and most
easily understood. A teacher should be
very particular not to teach any demon
national doctrine. a violation OF tins
rule might require the removal Of such
teacher. There is Il vast difference be
tween normal instruction and religious
training. We must give the children Dor
i'll instruction at the school; they should
receive religious training in their homes.
The school room is not a place to make
religious proselytes. and such work will
not be tolerated while | am county sup
rrintendent, but the school is the place
where the children should be taught to
observe and live up TO those eternal
rules Of morality which are adhered to
and observed by every civilized organi-
cation in the world.
The superintendent under the law is
given authority to do this, therefore an

the reel is Deaths Marathon, or
The Result of Miscredited Confidence
and Chance" The self-centered man,
ever-confident of his success wins in
love over the more sensitive friend.
Assurance and success come natural
y. Overwhelmed by the game of
chance, it is significant that he takes
his defeat with less philosophy than
most men. To him it is utter failure
the end of all. His incompatible
nature causes him to carry his rash
act to the climax, nor can others pre-.
vent.

SCHOOL
ANNOUNCEMENT
tContinns1 from First Page.)

differently We're to do a dishonest
thing a hurtful thing. So we urge
our patrons to study closely the
grades sent them, for they will be
our honest estimate of the work their
child is doing.
A last vocabulary parents try to
help their children prepare their les
sons. After eighteen years of expert
ence we unhestatingly declare that
nine out of ten children so helped are
hurt rather than helped Not that
we look with disfavor upon the effort;
far from it. We heartily wish more
parents had enough interest in their
children's welfare to be willing to try
to help them. But get the point; the
trouble is in the way help is offered.
Let us explain.
The average parent goes over the
tomorrow lesson with the child.
That is the mistake In the first
place, the child goes to school next day
feeling that he knows the lesson and
need not study much if any. Natur-
ally he falls into habits of idleness
sometimes into mischief. But that is
not the worst result He forms the
habit of depending on someone else
to do his thinking for him. He fails
to develop powers of originality. He
may, and probably will, make good
grades while so assisted, but he rare
ly develops, and almost invariably be-
comes weaker as he grows older.
What should the parents do? you
ask. The answer is easy, put all
your time on work already passed
over. See if he knows the lessons of
yesterday and let him alone so far as
tomorrow's lessons are concehned
This method may not get immediate,
visible results, but it is the one meth
cd on which you can rely unfailingly.
While the other method tends to pro-
duce weakling and trains the child
/ in handing in work not his own and
receiving credits not his due, this one
helps him where he needs help and
gradually brings him to point
where he will not need help, the very
contamination of the educative pro-
cess.
Opening day ANNOUNCEMENTS will
appear in next Saturdays Democrat.

arnold Babcock Dead

SAN DIEGO, Jan. 3.-Arnold E.
Babcock, son Of E. S. Babeock, and
a prominent cattle man, died Wednes-
day in the U. S. Grant Hotel after a
iGr0rirg illress Of three years. AT
his bedside when he passed away were
his wife, his secretary, A. E. Lillicrap,
and his physician, Dr. A. Morgan.
Mr.. Babcock has been a resident of
San Diego since his boyhood His fam
lily is prominent one in San Diego
county. His father was at one time
manager for the Spreckels interests. In
1892, when the control Of all the
street ear lines in San Diego passed
into the hands OF John D. Sprsckels
ana were incorporated a. the San Diego
Electric Railway Company, Mr.. Bab-
cock was vice president Of the com
pany.
His principal fame, however, rests
upon the fact that he was the man who
named Coronado and was the chief
spirit in the syndicate OF men who
bought it, developed it and made it
the famous resort it is today. The
History Of San Diego" written by
William e. Smythe, credits the elder
Mr.. Babcock with large part in the
development Of San Diego.
The younger Mr.. Babcock was for
some time in charge Of the great Bah
cock cattle ranch in Lower California.
This was sold to a syndicate a few
years ago. He was we'll known to old
residents Of the city, who all called
him "Arnie."

ally for the investigation OF stream
flow and underground water resources.
This work In carried on in connection
with the regular geological survey
work under cooperative agreement be-
tween the survey and the state en-
gineer.
The California censervat' on commits
sion, authorized by an act Of the legis-
lature to make an investigation Of the
natural resources Of the state, found
that it required information concerning
the water resources at the earliest pos
s'ble date and therefore entered into
an agreement with the geological sur
vey, by which the survey undertook
special Investigations of stream flow
end water power under an allotment Of
si2,5OO.
The state board Of control water
powers), authorized by an act Of the
legislature to make special study Of
the available water powers OF the state
and to recommend legislation for their
control, likewise entered into a CO.
operative agreement with the geologi-
cal survey to compile complete digest
OF all svailable data concerning the
flow Of streams in the state Of Califor-
mia and made an allotment for that in
vestigation Of $4,000.
The results OF the work thus under
taken are being published by the geo.
logical survey In six volumes designat-
ed water Supply Papers" 295 to 800
inclusive. Nos. 295, 296 and 297 are
photographic gazetteers containing in
formation concerning all streams, lakes,
ponds and other bodies Of water with :
in the state. Nos. 29S, 299 and 800
contain the results Of all stream flow
measurements that have been made
within the state.
The state board Of control. finding
itself in need Of accurate information
concerning the fall of the principal
rivers Of the state, made further al
lotment to the geological survey for
special profile surveys Of the Pit, Mid
die fork of Feather. three forks Of the
American, the Tuolumne and the San
Joaquin rivers. alloting therefor the
sum Of si0,6O0.
The California state wafer commits
sion, which succeeded the board of
control, has recently entered into an
agreement for the further pursuit OF
stream flow Investigations under an
allotment of s3500.
All this work above described to-
gether with that which has been car

and the state engineer. will make avail

Greatest Year for Gold

|, WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-The worlds
production Of gold during 1912 was
s5,500,000 greater than in 1911, the
total having been 100000, ac-
cording to a preliminary estimate an
nounced by George E. Roberts, direct
or Of the mint.
Gold production in the United States
amounted TO s91,6s5,16s, compared
with s96, 6,s9O,0OO in 1914. California
led with s19.9ss,4s6; Colorado was
second with s1s,7s1,7I0; Alaska third,
with si7,39s,946; Nevada fourth, with
s13,331,6 $50, and South Dakota fifth,
with s7,795,6SO.
OF the worlds production, the
Transvaal and Rhodesia made a gain
Of about $4,000, 900, and Canada
gained nearly s3,00O,OOO. The United
States, Mexico and Australia lost
about st6,000,000, and in the rest Of
the world the production was about
what it was last year. Sinos 1908,
when the production Of gold in the
world was s44i,475,0o the annual
increase has been small.
The mint service Of the United States
during the year sold s3S, 200, 900 worth
o. gold bars for consumption in the
arts in this country and Canada, as
saainst 35,000.00O in 1911. The net
consumption Of new gold, includinr :
cen for such uses, in the United States
and Canada, was about 5000, 900
and in the world excluding Asia prob
ably between s1OO,OOO,OOO and S1i5,-
100000.
The absorption of gold by India
again attracted attention. The net i'm
ports OF India in 1909 were $50, ,OOO,-
600; in 1910. 100000, 900; in 1911,
s116,500,0O0; and in 1912 approx
mately si4O,OOO,OOO. The movement
OF silver to India also continues heavy.
The importations of silver, in ounces.
during 1912 have been exceeded only
once in the history Of India-in 1906.
The increase Of gold in the none
tary stock Of the United States in
9i2 was approximately 100000, 900,
chiefly in bullion, rep. sented in Iii.
circulation by certificates.
The production Of silver in the
United States during 1912 amounted
to 62,369,974, compared with 6O,399,-
400 fine ounces in 1911. the chief
gains in production having been in
Utah and Colorado. Nevada ranked
first in production, with 13,O42,1is
fine ounces; Utah second, with t2,795,-
o72 ounces; Montana third, with i2,-
o3s,539 ounces; Colorado fourth, with
S,35O,3t6 ounces, and Idaho fifth. with
1,703,72f ounces.

TO RevIss Tariff

WASHINGTON. Jan. 3.--With the
reconvening of congress, Democratic
leaders of the house will resume work
with the understanding that the extra
session is to be called March is, and
that bills revisinO the entire tariff are
to be ready for submission on that
date. The Progressive members OF
the ways and means committee will
really determine the date Of the extra
session and word has come from Pres
ident-elect Wilson that he will call the
special session not later than March
IS, if the tariff bills are ready.
1t is now the plan of the house
leaders to draft ali tariff bills under
schedule arrangement before any one
bill is presented. The several meas.
ures, each devoted to a schedule in
the existing law, are to be presented
to a Democratic caucus which is to
determine whether the tariff is to be
revised in blanket bill or by piece
meal
Following the recent conference be-
tween President elect Wilson and Rep
resentative Underwood, chairman Of the
ways and means committee, the fol-
lowing program has been tentatively
arranged:
Mr.. Wilson will call the extra ses-
sion Of congress a. soon a. the ways
and means committee gives the sig
nal.
The committee will map its COM
plete tariff revision program before
reporting any bill to the house.
All tariff bills probably will be pre-
sented simultaneously to the party eau
Gus and the caucus will decide what
schedule is to be frst considered.
whether a popgun revision is to be
undertaken or whether the house shall
| undertake at one swoop revision of
tariff by one big bill.
The president-ele thinks congress
| should be assembled in extra session
by the middle Of March if the way.
and means committee is ready. II the
committee is not prepared, Wilson will
probably await the completion Of its
! labors.

One Of the strongest evidences of the

which to assist in its Investigations,
