SUGGESTIONS

IL your studies become irksome

more hours to their days work four
times a week In order that they may
be better fitted to gain q competency
for the future.

torial reference TO q war story told
by Arthur Ruhl. their special CORES

by growing vegetables scientifically.
Suppose you consult with your teach
ers and see IL arrangements cannot
be made to attend some OF these lee
lures.
Let Us suggest to Western high

are disappointed in not seeing items
from there In this department. Ar.
rangements were made for an editor
in-chief nearly two months ago, but
so far Western has failed to material
ize with q report
in the effort to make the public
schools of Detroit the finest In the
world, the school editors OF this de-
partment may play one of the lead
Ing roles. Already you have attracted
public attention by your work. and
now II Is up to all oil US to steer that
attention In the right direction.
II your heart does not prompt you
to be nice to the little fellow who
seems to be more unfortunate than
you. who cannot dress as nicely or
enjoy as many liberties, then bear in
mind that some day he may be a
great leader Of men and his friend
ship very much worth while.
Just before you land that blow or
say that spiteful word, stop a mo-
ment and think how much more de-
lightful II Is TO see face Illuminated
with smile than with a scowl, espe-
cially when some nice act OF your
own gave occasion. for the smile.
Do not allow your work as a school
editor to~grow burdensome to you.
II should be a pleasure rather than
q duty to furnish news from your
school, especially as SO many people
are interested In seeing what the
boys and girls are doing in your dis
trict.

PUTTING LIFE INTO LATIN

n N ISS NJ. KATHERINE M'NIFF,
M teacher of languages in the
! i Harrisburg high school, has
demonstrated beyond question
the practical side Of Latin as a sub
5ect for public school study. The ex-
hibit of the Latin pupils under her
instruction at the high school proves
very conclusively that Latin is not
only not dead language" but that
1t is very much alive when handled by
live teacher.
It has been contended from time to
time that the study of Latin should
be discarded in favor Of some more
modera subject, Notwithstanding that
at least superficial knowledge of
Latin is essential to full understand
ing of English, the complex construc-
ton of which is so rich in Latin roots
and derivitives. Miss McNiff has not
only demonstrated it's use from that
standpoint, but has turned it into the
channels of manual training as we'll
as intellectual culture. The exhibit is
too valuable to be broken up. It
should be preserved for the benefit of
visitors and students Of the future.

BREAKING FAITH

A NEW YORK newspaper has beer
"A punished by Justice Seabury
u presiding over the Becker trial
for contempt of court in pub.
fishing prematurely the opening ad.
dress of District Attorney Whitman.
The newspaper pleaded uninten.
donal violation of the release agree
ment, but there were other features OF
the incident which prevented the court
from being as lenient as it might
otherwise have been.
The wonder is not that this one
isolated instance of bad faith is re-
ported, but that such violations are
not more frequent. considering the op-
portunities and temptations that come
before the newspaperman every day
The country may be clamoring to
know just what attitude the President
is going to take on this or that ques-
tion concerning which he Is about to
address Congress. Statesmen at Wash
ington may be in utter ignorance OF
what the White House occupant is CO.
Ing to say in his message. Wall Street
may be impatient for the news. But
days before its delivery confidential
copies of the document are on the
desks Of every newspaper editor in the
country. This has been the customary
practice for years and in all that time
only once has the confidence of the
President been violated.
The whole message may be in type
and its editorial commentary written.
but not even a hint of the contents
reaches the public until one Of the big
press associations telegraphs that the
STORY is released"
Every day in lesser way this thing
occurs. Reports of investigating COM
speeches on important sub
jects, what the bride wore at the
White House wedding, detailed ac-
counts of matters of import to be laid
before Congress too long for wire COM
and even opinions of the
court. are given confidentially to the
in advance of their dates
of publication. Seldom, indeed, are
these trusts violated. No reputable
newspaper will wilfully do what the
New York publication is charged with
doing.

TRIPLES THAT MAY WATT

It is too bad that the great Chautau-
guam who is now presiding over the
destinies of this country in the
State Department should be dragged
away from the atmosphere of peace in
which he revels to endure the clash
and roar of Democratic factionalism
in Pennsylvania.
Even the Cove of peace deserves
some consideration, but when the
present occupant of the White House
selects candidates for whom the Dem.
ocratic voters are expected to cast
their ballots, such little things as q
scrap with Mexico and other inter.
national difficulties which confront
the government must wait.

THE Supreme Court of Pennnsyl-
vania, having stricken the May
= session at Harrisburg from its
calendar this year. might just as
we'll eliminate the middle district term
altogether. For years the attitude of
the Supreme Court toward the capital
city has been one of indifference and
almost contempt.
With the splendid courtroom pro-
vided for the sittings of the higher
court in the magnificent Capitol build
ing there is no excuse whatever for
the Supreme Court continuing it's
peripatetic jaunting from one city to
the other. AS matter of fact, the
Supreme Court should sit in Harris
burg permanently and not in Philadel-
phia. where it appears to have made
its permanent habitat. Since the
creation of the intermediate or Su-
perior Court, which sits in several
cities of the State, the Supreme Court
should be required to establish it's ses-
sions permanently at the Capitol
where all other departments of the
State government are located.
There has not been for years any
reason for the separation of the
judicial department from the executive
and legislative departments and it is
about time for the people to have
something to say about this matter.
The convenience of litigants and
lawyers would best be promoted by
permanent sittings of the court at the
Capitol, but so long as the court can
transfer the cases from Harrisburg to
Philadelphia at will 1t is not likely
that there will be any change.

~ EPUBLICANS are returning to

ment is fast assuming the proportions

sioa will be one Of. much interest to
the party in Harrisburg. Senator Pen

ganization.
have divided the Republicans during
the last two or three years, the
disposition now is general throughout
the party to forget the past and pre-
sent a solid front to the common
enemy in the pending campaign.
There is no longer any bitterness of
feeling among Republicans over the
differences of 1912 and the reunion OF
the Harrisburg Republican Club on
this anniversary occasion is just the
sort of get-together meeting that will
cement in a closer bond of party union
those who are firm in the faith and
ready to support the principles which
give the party its hold upon the peo-
pie.

'T,M GOING TO THE CIRCUS"

BY Wing Dinger
I'm going to the circus,
The kids Til take along,
But II you think It's just for them
You're wrong, my boy. you're wrong
OF course. they're half the fun of
The trip to the big show,
But then the other half is
Because I want to go.
I want to see the lion,
The tiger and the bear;
1 want to see the whole show,
Who knows It. I don't care.
I'm going to take the kiddies,
Because they want to go.
And cross their faces I'll watch
The smiles chase to and fro.
Some daddies like to blame on
Their kids the circus trip,
But that's not me, I'm honest
When I pass out this tip:
I'm going to the circus,
The kids along will go,
Because the whole darned family
Just wants to see the show.
