It will be used as weapon by

escaped These are the same men for
whom warrants were issued in Dutch

Bench warrants on the Indictment
were issued by the court and turned
over to detectives of the district at
torney's office.
Mr.. Jerome announced that he
would at once ask Governor Glynn for
extradition papers based on the new
charge to be sent to the governor of
New Hampshire.
That the fight to keep Thaw out of
this state is not over is made clear
by a statement issued by Lawyer
Grossman, who represents Thaw.
When told of the Indictment, he said:
"a man who has been committed
to an asylum as an insane person can
not be adjudged guilty of the crime
of conspiracy. I do not believe the
indictment will stand, nor do believe
it VII have any effect on the status
Of the case in New Hampshire.
"I have all along contended that it
is not the intention to try Thaw on
any indictment, for the very obvious
reason that no conviction could be
had. 1 seriously doubt whether the
Indictment will in any way affect the
proceedings in New Hampshire"

NEW CURE FOR DRINK
FRUIT AS A SUBSTITUTE.

In the December American Maya
zine. Henry Detmers writes a little
article entitled GA New Cure For
Drink" Mr.. Detmers says that he has
been in the saloon. business for twenty
years. He is not a drinker himself
and none of his sons drink. Out of
his experience he recommends the
following cure for the liquor habit:

more than can be said of peaches,

Ordinarily both the Detroit team
and the Athletics are good waiting
teams, teams that have opposing pitch

clubs. Yet Detroit threw away a

In the Worlds series between Pitts

Pirates did not have curve pitchers
enough, or of sufficient quality, to pre-
vent Detroit from smuggling its way to
victory. Fred Clark was forced to
fall back upon Adams, a fairly good,
but not sensational curve ball pitcher,
who was young and inexperienced.
In the opening game Adams was as
nervous and shaken as any pitcher
ever was. He was trembling and white
from nervousness and the strain. He
passed the first batter without getting
a ball over the plate, and with Bush,
one of the best walters and one Of the
hardest men in the business to pitch
to at bat, Adams seemed in dire
straits. There Jennings made the
greatest mistake of his career. He

takes his education not simply as
personal opportunity, but as part OF
his service to his sovereign and to his
country.
1t goes without saying that in Japan,
as in other parts of the world, there
are students who are lazy and indif-
ferent and who fall by the wayside:'
but on the other hand, the average
college student of Japan looks upon
his education less in the light of a per-
sonal opportunity and more in the
nature of call to serve his sover-
eign and his country. College spirit
is with him synonymous with patriot
ism. 1t is not local, but national.
With him, education is matter Of
personal ambition, but always with the
ideal of serving his native land.
The influence that goes far to con-
ceal from the outside observer the
fact that the underlying ideals of the
Japanese and American student are
much alike is the difference in the
philosophy of life between the east
and the west.
The philosophy that the Japanese
student learns teaches him to repress
his emotions. to conceal from the
world the evidences of suffering and
of joy, of love and of hate. The phil
| osophy of the westerner permits him
to exhibit freely these emotions.
But the educated westerner who can
look below the surface to the human
nature beneath will understand that a
Japanese gentleman has heart in his
bosom, even If his code of life teaches
him to express his joy and his sor-
row in ways that to western eyes
seem cold.
Dewey County advocate. [volume] (Timber Lake, S.D.) 1910-1913, 1913-06-06

every reason to be glad and proud over
this. It has arisen not only out of
the need Of the Japanese for con-
venient medium Of communication and
the availability of the English language
for that purpose, but it means also q
genuine liking of the Japanese for the
language and the institutions Of Great
Britain. 1t represents, in fact, an ef-
fort on the part Of this progressive
nation to adopt into her own civiliza-
ton those moral and practical ideals
which she has recognized with friend
ly admiration in Great Britain and in
America.
Other Points Of Similarity.
Not only is the form of education
much the same in America and Japan,
but a comparison of Japanese and
American student ideals shows extra
ordinary points Of similarity. The ia
panese show alertness, resourceful-
ness and power of initiative. Further
more, in the Japanese student Is the
extraordinary individual ambition to
succeed, coupled generally with an
idealistic impulse toward patriotic and
social service.
The Japanese people have inherited
deep reverential devotion toward the
imperial house which affects student
ideals as profoundly as those of other
groups of the population. This intense
feeling is the heritage Of many CEN
turtles, and all education has its roots
in it. From the time that the Japan
ese boy enters the primary school until
he leaves the university there are be-
fore him always and in every act Of
his student life the solemn words Of
the imperial rescfipt ON education.
AS a consequence Of this deep nat
ional feeling, the Japanese student

pursue in Carada and the United
States. So far, therefore, as the char
acter of the schools is concerned and
the subjects that boys and girls study
Japanese youth and youths in Canada
and the United States are educated in
much the same way
DR.. Pritchett points out, however,
there is one remarkable difference OF
detail in the school curriculum in
Japan and in America that arises out
of the comparative isolation of the
Japanese people from other highly
civilized industrial nations, and which
cannot fail to have an enormous ef
feet. not only upon the intellectual de
velopment of the youth of the nation
but also upon their relations to the
citizens of other countries. The PEG
pie of Japan speak language which
the citizen of no other civilized natior
expects to learn.
In order, therefore, that Japan may
be in touch with other nations, Japan
ese children must learn a foreign Ian
guage, and must learn it we'll. The
international language of Japan ii
English, and 1t is not too much to say
that in Japan today English, with
the resulting knowledge of the litera
ture, is the most influential single
study that the Japanese child pursues
Every Japanese child who goes be
yond the primary school takes up in
the middle school five-year course in
the English language; and if he goes
through the high school he must have
three years more of it; if he completes
his education in the university, he has
four additional years of training In
English.
Every one, therefore, of the thou
sands of graduates of the Japanese
universities has had a thorough
grounding in the English language and
is, in fact. effectively equipped for US
ing English as his medium of com
munication with the rest of the world
The English-speaking nations have
