Too Many Holidays.


From the Towson News.
When the United States took possession
of the Philippine Islands we found that
about one day in three was legal holiday
most of the occasions being celebrated in
honor of some more or less well-knOwn
saint. This great surplusage of dies non
greatly interfered with business and to il
many attributed the lack of progress which
existed under the rule of Spain.
But we are fast catching up with the
Dons. A few years ago all the holidays
generally observed were Christmas, the
Fourth of July and Thanksgiving Day.
Now their number is legion, and in addi-
ton the Governor is empowered to name
as many special days as he may see fit.
The Governor, however. seldom exercises
his prerogative, and then only when some
bankers and brokers, weary with four or
five hours work day handling other peo-
pies money, ask him to include Satur-
day when a regular holiday falls on a
Friday, so they may have weekend Of
four days.
We have an abundant sympathy with
children, and good deal for teachers. but
we think II is going little too far to give
two full weeks holiday in our public schools
for Christmas. The teachers are paid for
the whole time. and the break comes right
at the time when the pupils are doing
their best and most important work. Peo-
pie now living can remember when school
children received Christmas Day only as
a holiday. and the leap was considered a
great one when the respite from school
stretched from the day before Christmas
until New Years Day. inclusive II 1t is
desired TO shorten the school year il would
be better to take the surplus from the flag
end. when the weather gets warm. the
children are worn out and it is far better for
them to be out of doors than in a stuffy
school ROOM
The tendency 10 idleness is progressive.
In olden times the working day was twelve
hours long, and holidays, as we have said,
were few Since then the hours have been
cut to ten. to nine, to eight or less, and il
we were to make them but four opera
tives would still take their paid time to
change into their street clothes, shine their
shoes, etc, instead Of doing these neces-
sary personal services on their own time.
II we mistake not this country is already
paying too little attention to work and
study and too much to play, and day Of
reckoning is pretty close at hand. Re-
member the fable Of the erasshopper and
the ant.

Located At Jacksonville.

street, prior to taking up their permanent
residence in Jacksonville, Fla, where Mr..

train December 20 and will be joined at

Mrs. Stout, who will spend the winter with
her neice in Florida.
Mr.. Stout has been more or less con-
stantly in the service of the B. & 0. at
Clarksbure for more than fifteen years
serving in several capacities, including
vardmaster at that point, which fact led
the Seaboard Air Line to seek his services
the position being proffered him without
his seeking. The trackage at Jacksonville
being ample, the services OF yardmastei
are productive Of larger and better results
with less nerve strain than at Clarksburt
and the climate is decidedly more attrac'

Comet Nearing The Earth.

As it is apparently drawing nearer thu
earth, it is probable that Delavan's comet
the latest stranger in the sky, soon may
become visible to the naked eye. Last
Friday night, however, it was only visible
through the powerful five-inch finder Of
the great telescope at the Naval 0bserva-
tory at Washington.
The comet was discovered by Paul T..
Delavan, of the Argentine naval observa-
tory at La Plata. Prof Asaph Hall, United
States Navy, of the Naval Observatory,
December 18th was the first to observe it
in this country.
According to the telegram from South
America" Prof. Hall said, "a large tele-
scope was necessary for observations there,
meaning probably the seventeen-inch re-
Hector of the La Plata observatory The
comet has bright nebulosity. and on the
night Of December 10Th it showed fairly
bright nucleus, surrounded by nebulosity,
and appeared to have faint tail following.
ut was not visible in the two-and-one-
half-inch finder.
1.-THE night of December 22nd there was
considerable haze, so that no tail was to
be seem"
Amateur astronomers with small glasses
may seek the comet. Prof Hall said, by
using the star Zeta Eridani for starting
point. THE comet is approximately Ia 1-2
minutes of time west of this star" he ex-
planned, land north of it 2 IS degrees. 1t
is moving west about 81 seconds of time
per day, north about Ia minutes. but
there has not been enough motion so far
to compute an orbit"
This is the sixth comet discovered in
1918. The one that has attracted the
most attention was found by Neujuin on
September 3rd. This was very small
body and showed only the slightest trace
of nebulosity, its appearance being rather
that of an asteroid.
