One Way of Teaching English .

The recent verbal tilt between ex-President Taft
and Dr.. Eliot over the question whether the study OF
English should be made compulsory in the Filipino
schools may start another nationwide sociological
discussion lie that which took it's first impulse in
Milwaukee some twenty years ago, on an issue broad
ly related to the one raised the other evening. Mr..
Taft appears to have rested his advocacy of the
affirmative side on the confusion which would result
from perpetuating the babel of tongues in current use
among the various groups of natives in the Philippine
archipelago. A similar diversity exists among the
Indians of our continent; but the more astute edit
Gators in this field. were not solw to! discover that
the Yankee gdne Of baseball was worth more as an
agency for the spread of our vernacular among the
young %aborigines than all the laws and regulations
ever written into a book. Where the boys needed
to form two rival mines" were drawn from several
different tribes, the only language on which all could
unite was English; and when the players had ac-
quired enough familiarity with it to shout their orders
and responses, encourage the runners and hurrah for
the successful contestants. the infection soon spread
to other sports and to their intercourse generally.
Once mastered in this way by their own desire and
voluntary effort, their English stayed with them, not
as a brand of subsection, but, so to speak, as a foster
mother tongue. .E ~.

COurtesu in Children

The following, from the Kansas City Journal, will
give the members Of the Parent-Teachers League
something to talk about: \
In these parlous days of fervid theories and burn
ing ambitions, it is considered hopelessly old-fashion-
ed and reactionary to counsel the teaching Of common
politeness in school. Several sincere men and women
in Kansas City have taken the ground that courtesy
has a legitimate place in child training, but those
who fashion the destinies Of educational modernism
ridicule such a suggestion. Teachers once taught
%politeness, but this is the periodd Of enlightened
radicalism, when the slogan rings from every side,
Whatever is wrong; let's change it,. Thus the
teachings and precepts of the fathers and mothers
are resolutely set aside or sent to the junk pile and
the new order blazons into the accompaniment Of
crashing enlightenment. RI.
The other day Mrs. J. NJ. Greenwood addressed
the Parent Teachers association of the James school.
She talked about ""Child Development and the good
sense, rational simplicity and sound intelligence OF
her remarks were very amusing from the standpoint
OF the up-to-date education al reformer. Mrs. Green
wood made a plea for the teaching OF etiquette and
%politeness in the public schools. These are some OF
the old-fashioned things she said:
1T is an unquestionable breach of etiquette where
children are concerned to hear them call hello or
what to an elder as the modern child does" said
Mrs. Greenwood. THE fashion of saying yes and
no. without the pretty courtesy of a sir or 'ma'am,'
added, l think unnecessarily emphasizes their eman-
cipation from old-time politeness. 1t is no bondage
to be polite and we sacrifice more by rude or care.
less attitude toward our elders than we gain by being
free and easy.
"The Importance of %poiteness cannot be overrat.
ed where children are concerned, and parents can
not be too careful where they draw the line. They
should encourage thoughtfulness and courtesy and
obedience in their offspring. 1t is all too rare in this
rushing age. l call any divergence from courtesy in
the child as more the result of forgetfulness than
anything else. The boy or girl of today is as whole
souled and fine as his parents were in the onld days."

has just been opened to the public. Fest of all, the
city contains a class of progressive people that cannot
be surpassed in any community for enterprise. While
for years there have been hopes entertained for the
erection Of a new capitol building, the next project
proposed for Bismarck is a combined court house and
city hall building, to cost at least 100000. 1t has
been proposed that the present court house ground
be used as the site.

LOWERING the Price of Beef

Consumers will do we'll not to become lnduiy
cla'ed over the report from New York that extensive
facilities are being provided there for handling meat
imported from Argentine and Australia. The placing
OF meat on the free list opening the way to prohtablt
=. importation: The reason for being conservative in
anticipation is that the same American packers who
control the American meat business haze established
themselves in Argentine, and presumably will soon
have such a hold upon the business therc as to pre-
vent much serious competition with them on the part
OF outsiders, particularly as experts have reported
that there will not, for some years, be enough surplus
beef for expectation from Argentine to acct seriously
the prices in this country. Entrance Of American i'm.
porters more actively into the Argentine market is
more likely to cause a rise in beef in England than a
decline in this country, because England viii have to
bid higher for what she needs.
The Australian situation is somewhat different.
American packers have not been permitted to gain
control Of the packing and export business there.
The government has taken charge of it, as a measure
to prevent: monopoly. One of the largest plants in
the world is being created by the government, and
it is the purpose to prevent any sort OF monopoly of
tie export business by private individuals. Several
%shiploads of refrigerator beef from Australia have
been imported to California ports, and a temporary
lowering Of retail prices has resulted, but the bust
ness has not been put on a permanent basis, and the
situation seems to be that there is not available in
Australia enough beef for import into the United
States to do more than acct local prices. 1t is pos.
sible the New York market may be partially supplied
in this way, when the canal is open, but not the out
side markets.
However, should the importation of a few million
pounds of beef. only a part of which would be han
died by importers independent Of the so-called beef
trust, reduce by a few cents the retail price of meat,
the ~farrsers oithe United States would be the ones
to stand. the loss, not the packers. The wholesale
price Of beef would 60 down. AS matters now stand,
it is dhicult to convince farmers that it would ray
them to go more generally into the live stock bust
ness. They claim it does not pay. Production 10

ally. Unless there is largely increased production, it
will take large importations to maintain the present
proportion, and threat of lowering prices by importa-
tons is more likely to have the effecr Of rstarding
the increase in live stock production than in actual
i1"ering .of prices. Thus, the very means, taken to
lower prices may ultimately result in :olding them
w. If not in raising them still higher, because j, is

Text, Cor. 3-2l. Wherefore let no
one glory in men. For all things are

1t hardly seems that it would be
necessary to warn people against being
satisfied with too little in this world
and yet that is one of the ruts into
which most of us fall. Paul had his
trouble to deal with in Corinth just as
we have it today. The people there
were following various leaders such as
Paul and Appolis and Cephas, instead
of following the teachings OF Christ.
The people were satisfied with part OF
what really belonged to them. These
men gave various interpretations OF
of the teachings of Christ and the ten
dency was to follow the men who gave
these interpretations instead Of follow.

We have four gospels to give us q
picture of Christ. No one of them
gives us the completed picture. The
same incidents are held before us in q
different light. The truths concerning
Christ are still being revealed to men
in our day. The teachings of the Bible
are being interpreted in different ways
by different men today, and the dan
ger is that We will be satisfied with the
Interpretation Of single individual in
stead of endeavoring to get at the
whole truth of the teachings of Christ by
4 study Of the Bible for ourselves.
