IDLE SCHOOLS IN SUMNER.

The following from the New YoI
World ; editorial columns carries i
'wn Interpretation
The National Education Asso.
ciation in St. Paul runs up against
the problem Of the schools in sum
mer because the problem is ineseap
able II confronts one everywhere
in the idle, empty school houses. In
New York City we are not even us
in them to teach English to for
eien born adults who have or pres
emily will have the vote.
Two false precedents have done
mischief in Our education. Schools
in rural districts used to grant long
vacations so that BIG boys could
work on the farm. The New York
law required only twenty eight
weeks Of school in the year; some
Southern States still require even
less. But New York City pupils
are not working on the farm in long
vacation: too often they are idling
in the street. And it costs nearly
81, 600, 600 to carry the unused
school houses for couple of
months.
English public schools and
universities, maintained for the
wealthy, have similarly bedeyiled
our college calendars. Ia Oxford
man is supposed to do his studying
in vacations, 50 short and 50 full
are the terms. The students in our
more democratic universities cannot
afford tutors for such a wasteful sys-
tenn; summer baseball or semi idle
ness often claims them. Most col
leges, TO do them Justice, are now
using their equipment al summer,
in special work or enabling bright
pupils to graduate in three years.
One reason often assigned for the
pace at which Germany is forging
alongside Great Britain, and for the
fact that German boys are about
TWO years ahead Of ours in school
advancement. is that the absurd
idea Of giving healthy children two
to four months vacation while their
parents get one or two weeks. or
none at all, has not found favor
there.
The school plant of a city should
never stand idle. 1t has cost too
much and there is always work for
it to do.

THE Board of County Commissioners

vue farm supply all demands for the re-
quirements necessary to support the said
institution. This is as it should be.
All practical farmers in the Board Of
Commissioners, and with an acreage
sufficiently large, there should be
no difficulty to accomplish the result

much territory to cover and it is up to
their constituents to now show their good

Some have said Why not let pupils study the
Bible when they please? Why is it necessary to
add this burden to the schools? To these might
be asked the question, Why study Faust or
Othello in school? Why study any literature in
school? Everybody knows that to appreciate
the classics it is necessary to have some prellml-
nary study in their historical settings and that
the faculties of appreciation can best be devel-
oped under skilled tutelage. The same thing is
true of the Bible as literature and as history. If
left alone, the average boy girl will leave the
Bible untouched just as the average boy or girl
will, if left alone leave Shakespeare untouched.
The promoters of the Bible study plan hoped to
interest in and appreciation of the
Bible through their study courses and this was
& perfectly wise and laudabe thing to do
But Attorney General Honan has knocked all
this in the head. Attorney General Honan is a
lawyer but first of all a politician and seems to
share somewhat in the vague prejudice against
the Bible that is rife in certain quarters. This
prejudice is as baseless as the arguments with
which he supported his position, but like all
prejudice it served to blind him to the plainest
facts.
He declared that the public schools have no
right to gave credits for work not done under
the direction of public school teachers. If this
is to hold good of Bible study it must equally
apply to all other studies. And this means that
one of the most progressive movements in lndi-
public education has received black eye
from the attorney general. Schools have given
credit for work done under certain conditions in
the home or in offices factories; for work done
under competent private tutor; and for work
done in parochial schools. All this work is done
outside the schools and not under direction of the
teachers. Consequently it falls under the ban Of
the attorney generals decision.
This decision rests, President Kelly said,
on the notion that only teachers teach and
only knowledge won in the schools is real knowl-
edge. That such a decision is utterly absurd is
patent to anybody. And that work done in Jew
1sh history under private tutors is not worthy
of recognition work done in Roman history
under public tutors is equally absurd. 1t is to
be hoped that President Kelly and his colleagues
will push their project beyond the reach of such
small prejudice and such nfantile conceptions.

Attorney General Honan, and Bible Study

Even those who are most impatient with the
doctrina theories often based upon the Bible are
usually free to acknowledge the Books supre
macy as literature, document of humanity
Such men as Huxley, Carlyle, J. S. Mill and Walt
Whitman, who not in sympathy with cur
rent theological interpretations, were vigorous
advocates of it's study for its own sake and for
it's cultural influences. That man could be said
to be familiar with literature who is unfamiliar
with the Bible they would not have admitted. A
slight knowledge of western literary history will
make it plain to anybody that the Bible is not
only great book in itself but is great as having
been the source of the Vests literary evo-
luton. One can't appreciate Shakespeare Mil
ton, Dante, Goethe Carlyle, Ruskin or even
backgrounds out of which their work sprang. No
less authority world literature than Prof.
r. G.. Moulton has asserted that education
which has left the Bible out is like staging of
Hamlet that has left Hamlet out.
Prof R. L. Kelly, president of Earlham Col
lege, and those other Indiana educators who have
labOred so long to introduce into HOosier schools
a system whereby work done in Bible study out
side of school might receive credit have acted
not only from merely sectarian motive but in
the interests Of generous and complete educa-
ton. Their plan that the attainments in
such study could be adequately guaged by writ
ten examinations to be based on a syllabus pre-
pared by the school authorities and that this
work would receive credit on the report card.

NEW YORK, June 22.-Noth-
ing has yet occurred to break the pre-
vailing inertia which hangs over near
~ all departments of business. Some
hopes of greater activity have been
Justly based upon our magnlncent
wheat crop and continued easy money.
But other anticipations seem to have
been unfortunately smothered by the
Mexican uncertainties and Congress
sional discussions. All fair minded
men will COnCede that there is world
wide slowing down of business due to
economic causes. Germany is still
feeling a moderate reaction from the
activity of the last few years and the
Balkan war. France has been suffer
ing from disturbed political condi-
lions. Great Britains phenomenal
boom seems to have reached climax
and a natural reaction is on, while the
whole continent Of Europe is feeling
the burden of crushing military and
naval expenses. In other portions of
the world, such as China, Japan, In
dia and Sout America, the tendencies
are also more or less reactOnary.
The situation in the United States,
however, varies somewhat in import
ant particulars from other countries.
We have had no real boom in this
country since the panic of 1907, al
though a very fair recovery followed
that crisis While the rest of the COM
mercial world has been enjoying I'M
usual activity, we have been persist
entity slowing down for nearly two
years We have had much liquida-
ton, and our principal industries have
been running on short time during a
considerable period. Economy has
been practiced in many directions.
