The next pogrom took place in Kischinef in

and were numbering every Jew they met We
rushed to our homes and locked and barri-
caded the doors.
Next day a mob of about 5OO accompanied
by many policemen, came to my house. The
leader of them shouted to mel indoors:
BELLS, tell what Jews are in your house
and hand them over to us at once. We want
to kill them, but won't harm you il you do as
YOU are told"
He had scarcely said this when some others
began to break into my house and smash the

cries of my wife were heard above the din,

ordinary story of his Russian life and
persecution in this newspaper last week.
In March, 1911, the body of a Chris

in a cave. A few days later, Bells, an
honest working artisan was arrested
charged with the killing of Yuschinsky.

the baseless and wicked superstition of
ritual murder" the charge that the blood

monies, as motive for the death of the

At once the plot behind the arrest of
Bells became apparent. If such charge
could be proven" against Bells. pogram
after pOgram could be melted, thousands
of Jews would be massacred and the
remnants of the race left in Russia could
be oppressed with still greater cruelty.
After two years of Imprisonment and
torture Bells was acquitted. He is now
in Palestine, but before he left Russia
he wrote for this newspaper his own
story of the barbarous conditions of ex-
istence of the Russian Jews. In his open
ing instalment last week he told of his
early poverty, his army service, of meet
ing the girl whom he was to marry and of
using the money given him with the bride
to buy new wardrobe.

NOW STUDYING SOCIALISM.

Miss Lucy K Burleson, daughter Of
the Postmaster General, is one of the
prominent students fostering popu
lar movement at George Washington
University for the organization of q
society for the study of Socialism
The organization will be chapter OF
the Intercollegiate Socialist Society,
which at present has branches in more
than so colleges and universities in
the United States. Miss Burleson was
one of the first to enroll her name in
the list of students who propose max
ing thorough study of the various
phases Of Socialism. The object of
the society is to promote an intelli-
gent interest in Socialism among the
young men and women of the college.
National Tribune, Washington, D.
c..
Something strange, isn't it, to see
the daughter of Democratic official,
taking up the study of Socialism. The
fact, however, remains, that state of
unrest has seized SO many over condi-
tions prevailing in our country, that
an intelligent study of Socialism, a
proposed remedy, is necessary. There
are many good ideas in Socialism, and
some very foolish ones, but eventually
the chat will be separated from the
wheat, and the good ideas adopted by
this great nation. Among the foolish
ideas are the trial marriage, the child
the ward of the State, the opposition
to church, the denunciation of religion
and disbelief, the parcelling of land
and the seizure of property. Some of
these are as unjust as is claimed for
the present system, some deadly i'm
moral, ana all chimerical.

AN UNUSUAL CITY HIGH SCHOOL
lBy Prot. narry clark. UnIversity Of Tennesseel

In the Stuyvesant High School, New
York provides a college preparation
for boys who want to so to college and
a trade education for those whose
finances compel them to 20 at once to
work.
On our visit there We were impress
ed by the healthy appearance OF these
young men, due to their fine gymnastic
training. Do we love our boys less
than the New Workers do? In Tennes-
see there are school gymnasiums in
Nashville, Chattanooga, Knoxville.
Memphis, Jackson. Most of our excel
lent private preparatory schools have
them. What is your community doing!
Perhaps it is so backward that it does
not even have high school,
Every boy, We were told, knew ex.
actly what occupation he meant to fol.
low when he graduated. In New York
schools the boy is taught the POSSIBLE
tiles in each trade, what education will
be required, what wages can be ex-
pected, what effect the trade has on
he is able to form some idea of what
his life plans will be. If the boy has
mechanical tastes, he goes to the
Stuyvesant High School. II he has
commercial tastes, he will go to the
Commercial High School. And so on
for other vocations, because New York
has several high schools. Some of
them have more pupils than all the
colleges in Tennessee put together
The principal of the Stuyvesant
High School told us that practically
all his students knew what occupation
they were going y follow when they
graduated and that they were taking
training for that one special thing.
We thought we should try to see
whether that was true. So the ten of
us divided ourselves into groups and
went among the boys to question them
while they were at work,
We. went into one room where the
boys were studying drawing. Some
boys said they were going to make
architects, and they were drawing
plans for cottages. One said he was
going to make an interior decorator,
and he was drawing a beautiful plan
for a sitting room opening into par
lor. He had painted with water-colors
the paper, curtains, furniture, pictures,
fireplace, portieres, windows, etc. We
were told that his design had been &C.
cepted by firm of decorators in the
city, and that they had offered this
boy large salary. Some boys were
drawing designs of machinery in an
other room, and they said they planned
to become mechanics.
We pushed open a door, and, to our
surprise, We thought we had stepped
into a factory. The room was full of
whirring machines tended by happy
faced boys in overalls. Why shouldn't
they be happy? They were learning
that to them seemed worth
while. We stepped up to a manly
