TRAINING OF GOOD WIVES
ENDORSED BY UNCLE SAM
Courses in Housekeeping in High
Schools Advocated by Bureau
of Education.

Endorsement a the efforts to educate
high school girls along lines that would
tend to make them efficient wives and
housekeepers is contained in a statement
issued today by the United States bureau
of education. The federal educators point
to the course laid down by the Wad-
leigh High School in New York city as
being model of its kind. The course
has been watched carefully by the bureau
of education and it's practical side has
been advanced by it. -.t
THE work is taken up chiefly by stu
dents who do not intend to go to college"
the federal educators set forth, but who
wish to make the best use of their time
while i'm high school: and ii is particu-
larly recommended for those who expect
to stay in school Only two years or less"
The course is declared to be both ''prac-
ticar' and cultural. giving opportunity
for the requirement of much Of the in
formation that ordinarily would not enter
into the task of managing a home. Do
nestle science and art; household arith-
metic: the care and remodeling OF cloth
dressmakirlg are among the principle
subjects.
In addition to these, however. the young
women who contemplate becoming house
wives will be instructed also in modern
languages. music. history, drawing and
other subjects of like character. The
federal officials add, though, that Latin
and advanced mathematics are conspicu-
ous by their absence.

DIsPosING OF A BUGABoo.

From time to time in the last
quarter of century efforts have been
made to alarm the American people
by much talk of the Germanizing of
southern Brazil. 1t has been said
that the existence of the Monroe Doc
trine would yet be jeopardized by
great German colonies in the cooler
sections of the largest country in
South America.
Highly colored pictures have been
painted of wide region in southern
Brazil filled with Germans who had
served in the army of their country
and could be counted upon. when the
proper time came. to seize Brazil. or
a large part of that country. and con-
vert it into a dependency of the Ger
man empire.
1t ought to reassure nervous Ameri-
cans who have taken such fairy tales
seriously to know that the immigra
| ton in Brazil is ten times as much
Portuguese as German. and that six
times as many Spaniards as Germans
| enter the country every year. the
Italian immigrants are 1--WE times as
numerous as the arrivals from Ger
many, and the Russians and Poles
outnumber the Germans three to one.
Even the Turks and Arabs are going
to Brazil in larger numbers than the
subjects of the Kaiser.
/ In fact the German immigration is
| so small. and the German population
constitutes so Insignificant part of
the Brazilian total In numbers,
though not in Intelligence and bust
ness capacity. that talk of pro-Ger-
man revolution in any state of Brazil
Is absurd. The German bugaboo in
South America might as we'll be
banished forever from the thoughts
