School and College Examinations

Formal examinations for entrance
and promotion in schools and col
leges are a good deal out of favor.
They were often too much a memory
test. A pupil might fritter away the
most of year in desultory study Yet
by feverish work, aided by a good
memory, he might so cram his mind
with names and dates in the final
weeks that he could secure q bare
passing mark.
Yet markings based on daily class
room work are not always ideal.
Easy going teachers dislike or fear
to apply rigid standards. and a whole
class slips through easily.
Examinations ought not to be so
much a query for facts, as test
whether the student has entered into
the spirit of the study. In a moment
of illustration, he may not be able, to
give the date of battle. But If his
study has been of any use, he must
be able to state in his own language,
the causes that led to war. Such
examinations put backbone into a
course of study, and impress on the
student the need OF definite accomp-
lishment.

A report compiled in the office Of
Sheriff Frank Breshears for the year
1914 shows the business Of that Of
flee to have been conducted at saw
ing of $258s.17 over the expenses of
the preceding year.
In the matter of salaries alone
there was reduction OF $S08.25. In
1912 there were three deputies en-
ployed, two at a salary of $1,000 each
ard one at 5000 annually, which,
with the sheriffs salary of $4,000 per
year, brought the payroll up to
$5420 The past year there have been
but two regular deputies, with SPILL
rs expended for extra deputies, bring
ing the total salary List up to $4611.-
l75.
In the first three quarters of 1912
the sheriffs office reported a def
cheney totaling $47143; for the fourth
quarter there was remittance to the
treasurer of s362.10, which left the
balance for the year deficiency Of
$109.S3. During the year 1913 the
sheriff's office has RENTED a total
of $1670.59 to the county treasurer,
no deficiencies appearing In the
monthly or quarterly reports. The
difference between the remittances
of $167059 for 1913 and the deficien-
|cy of s1109.33 for 1912 amounts to
a difference to the county of $1770.-
go.
Business Increases.
That the above figures are not the
result of any decrease in the volume
of business handled by the shertf's
office the past year is attested by
the number of cases docketed. The
record shows in brief that the pres
en-. administration has handled con- !
siderable more business the past year
with smaller force than was han
died during 1912. The civil docket
fer 1912 showed 25S cases, executive
docket SO cases, criminal docket "a
cases, total of 395 cases. In 1913
there we're 2S3 civil cases, 81 exc
cutive cases and LOG criminal cases,
totaling 456 cases and giving an in
crease of 81 cases over the preceding
year.
An additional difference in the ex-
penses and remittances Of the sher-
ifs office is due to the fact that the
officers travelled on passes on the
Oregon Short Line and interurban
lines during 1912, while since May 1,
1918, they have been required to pay
for transportation. This change has
made an average difference of $50
per month in the expense of the sher-
ifs office
Another circumstance which re-
duces the revenue and affects the az
nual report of the sheriff's office is
a change in the law by which the
sheriff is deprived of fees for the
collection of licenses in the county.
This makes a difference of between
$3.50 and 5000 in the receipts of the
office.

man Sent to Hospital
TRAFFIC ON LINE
RESUMED TODAY

The value of steel in the construction
of the modern railway coach was dem
onstrated in the wreck on the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad, west OF Woodlyn,
Pa, near Chester, on Saturday night
when no one was killed, despite the fact
that six cars of am express, speeding at
more than 90 miles an hour, were de-
rallied. The only passenger seriously
injured was Mrs Julia Wimen, of Roa-
no<e, Va, who is in the Grocer Hospi'
tai in Chester. A broken axle on the
engine tender was responsible for the
derailment.
The overturned sleeper in the ravine
contained six passengers, three OF
whom. a man and two women. formed a
trio of musicians who recently return
ed from a European tour. Their names
could not be ascertained. The women
were singing to the accompaniment OF
a violin when the accident occurred.
The passengers escaped through the
windows One woman was carried from
her berth by the porter.
The last coach in the train was the
only one not derailed The train, besides
the locomotive and tender, comprised a
mail car. mail and baggage car, day
coach. parlor car and three sleepers.

tecnth street. Mt. Neno, H., one of
the injured, ran in a dazed condition to
Twelfth and Walnut streets. Chester.
He was met by DIR. Walter Egbert, who
dressed his wounds Regaining his com
posure, Shipley told the physician that
he was in wreck.
The Rev. Thomas Ryan, rector of st.
Rose of Lima Catholic Church, was
one Of the first on the scene and took a
number of those slightly hurt into the
rcctory. A staff of 90 physicians from
Chester were dispatched to the wreck
and aided the injured
Immediately after the accident sew
eral hundred men were put TO work re-
laying the tracks. which were torn up
for a quarter of a mile west of the
bridge crossing Crum Creek. a small
stream. where the accident took place.
Many idle men, who had been employed
at the Baldwin Locomotive Works at
Eddystone, were put to work yesterday
A gang of bridge builders also arrived
on the scene and began at once to erect
temporary structure on the south side
of the destroyed bridge.
The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad ran
all its trains southward yesterday over
the PENNSYLVANIA Railroad. They re-
sumed traffic at noon today over their
own lines.
Officials of the railroad said last night
in Baltimore that the chief element of
safety TO passengers was in the solid
steel equipment, while the fact that the
train was reducing speed added to the
general Favorable conditions"
The train had been inspected in Jersey
CITY and again in Philadelphia, but Che
defect which caused the journal L
break, the roads officers said, would no
be discernible.

Broad hip sashes crossed in an

This season the fashionable woman
will stand erectly and have her arms
definitely defined.
The all-black frock with an artistic
dash of color promises to be fashion

Velvet mingled with couple cloths
or cachemere de sole is much used on
the new winter models.
The short shoulder cape appears on
some of the new travelling mantles,
called manteaux artillerie.
Underwear Of cotton crepe, extreme
ly simple, in white or in dainty cOlors,
is fashionable and practical
Many of the new French evening
gowns have no sleeves, narrow jewell
ed shoulder straps being the substi-
tute.
Many smart suits are made Of
broad ribbed yelours de laine in bril-
liant green and the new artillery blue.
Full effects in tulle overskirts,
shaped in a variety of styles. will be

Long gloves will continue to be
worn even when the longer sleeves
of winter are here. The gloves will
be worn over the sleeves.
The tightly fitted bodice, with mar
row shoulder effect, set-in sleeves and
topping a skirt with at least three and
sometimes nine ruffles. is the very
latest of fashions fancies.
Sleeves of velvet costumes are in
marked contrast to those of the strict

A rever fashioned in gold braid
