GOETHE MANUSCRIPT
FOUND IN BERLIN

BERLIN, March 25-An autograph
copy of Goethe's comedy, The Ac-
completes written in his youth, has
been found among the effects of al
aged woman who recently died in
Dresden. The manuscript was in a
pocket that had not been opened for
forty years. 1t had long been known
that there were in existence two cop
les of this early comedy which was
written in 1769--but Goethe research
ers had hunted yainly for it. The
owner left a win giving the manu-
script to the Goethe Archiye in Wei
mar.
The will placed the value Of the man
uscript at 10000 marks ($5,OOO), and
the city has required the payment of
Inheritance taxes thereon at that val
uation.

PRESTON, Ca, March 25.-Up until
last week Preston had been entirely
free of contagious disease for a long
time, now, however, a case or two OF
measles has made its appearance by

precutions the present outbreak ca
will soon be stamped out here.

negro
Joins Regiment

LONDON, March 25.-James Slim,
pure negro and native of Jamaica,
has enlisted as private in the Cold
stream Guards. Before the war it
would have been impossible for a me-
gro to joint a white regiment in Eng
land, let alone one of the proudest
and most famous OF the crack regi-
ments. The fact of Sims acceptance
is strong indiation of the drastic eff
fects of the war.
Slim was in France when the war
broke out and joined the French for
eign legion Wounded IN little, ne.
was sent to hospital where he ex-
pressed the wish to join Kitchener's
new army. Word was sent to Kitch-
ener with the result that he was al
lowed to enroll in the Coldstreams.
Slim is now training with the reserve
battalion at Windsor.

It was a splendid record of aleTtness, competence,

Lessons From the Philippines

If the Philippines educational system could be
adopted bodily for Chihuahua, and adapted TO local
conditions it would be great thing for FL Paso and
great thing for SpanshAmerica population 1t is
time should recognize the fact that the problem Of
Chihuahuita and our Spanish-Americans requires a
different educational treatment from that applied with
success among other American children The Philippine
system especially directed toward making boys and
girls self supporting at early age as practical
while giving them insight into the fundamental
branches of English education, stimulus to the
imagination, and appreciation Of the things in life
that worth while
No important exposition since the war with Spain
has housed fascinating Illuminating or inspiring
exhibits than that Of the Philippine government, which
is always represented with well planned comprehensive
exhibit of Filipino industrial social and intellectual
life The results of the Philippine system simply
marvellous. It must be borne in mind that the boys
and girls of many of the provinces taken from
condition as elemental savagery the modern
world knows In remarkably short time they
civilized in the that they put in touch with
the best the world has Offer and led to the value
Of an orderly and productive life.

Of the teachers. But the system IS at fault Equip
ment Of all kinds is lamentably deficient and not enough
thought has been put upon the fundamental problem
Of adapting the educational system to the real needs
of the people.
The Mexicans have natural talent toward the in
dustral arts It is along those lines of education that
they ought to be given the maximum advantages.

Building a Back Fire

Fortunately Of the European nations are taking
VIII take the Ford expedition seriously. Some Of
them may think might have taken appropriate action
to prevent it. but most of them recognize that the
way handle such situation successfully is to
let it alone.
No one need doubt M Ford's good intentions. The
Herald is not among those who assert that this is
personal advertising scheme of his. The Herald gives
him credit for sincerely trying to his fortune and
efforts way to try to end the slaughter. But
his shpoad is chiefly made up Of two classes: freaks
and jOurnahsts-there very few newspaper men
aboard. Very many of the party are men and women
who would be taken seriously in large affairs
where, in spite Of individual ability.
Surely the Ford party Is in no sense qualified to
voice the American nation It is not in any way repre-
sentative Of people, national sentiments,
government. It is an aggregation Of individuals who
VIII stand for nothing except private opinions and
oddities of human nature The idea that this exped-
ton have any real effect in bringing about end
of the is too gTOtesque to merit discussion.
The president IS sending Col House, his personal
friend and the unofficial president" to Europe to visit
the American ambassadors and possibly to visit the
various national authorities 1t is highly probable that
object of his visit is to spread the word around
that the Ford party is not to be regarded In any
sense bearing the government sanction
1t would be very embarrassing to our government
and to all its representatives, abroad if the wrong idea
gained currency about this remarkable venture of Henry
FOrd's. Such false conception would seriously in
terfere with the real work that this country the
leading neutral viii later have to take up,
in the interest of lasting peace.

Must the Fairgrounds Go?

School board budget and city council budget have
now both been made up submitted and published and
neither makes any provision for public Fairgrounds.
Members of the school board and city council express
themselves individually in favor of Fairgrounds, but
officially they do their way clear make the
necessary provision.
The Herald cannot believe that the system is now
year. Nearly 100000 will be spent to the city
government and the schools next year. 1t does
as if by means the $4,000 item for al-theyear
round supervised public Fairgrounds with social centers
and extension work for adults, might have been
tucked in.
FL Paso had successful year under the systematic
playground pan though work began late in the
and greatly hampered for lack of funds vast
amount of good service was performed by the super
visor and his assistants in organizing play, conducting
contests and reaching boys who had been running wild
spending their time in idleness or mischief. The
supervisor has many good story to tell of the actual
results Of his work; the trouble is that neither the
general public the authorities have taken the trouble
to inform themselves about what was really done.
The funds in hand will carry the work the
present plan until next April Then it viii stop unless
appropriations be made That will leave the sum
without any play provision
If FL Paso fails in this, it viii be the first time
the city has taken a backward step in its splendid
march of progress. 1t will indeed be serious loss to
the community. 1t is pity that, after all the hard
work that has been done for years to work up to a
modern play system, it should now be necessary to
argue with those who ought to be leading the
