Thc Issue and the CandIdnte.


The discussion OF the issues took
precedence over discussion OF candi-
dated at the recent Republican
National Committee meeting. In
fact there was only desultory discus.
sion OF candidates and no one Of the
many In the field exhibited any out
standing prominence. This. no doubt,
was largely due to the conviction OF
the party leaders that 1t is too early to
discuss names and the further conyic-
ton that the convention, as q repro
sentative body OF the people, can be
trusted to make the wisest choice. Fl
II may be too early to make predic-
tons regarding tho issues OF the COM

At Adamston and the People

The people at Adamston were GER
tainly fortunate in securing the SER
vices of the Rev. George A. Baggett,
of Memphis, NY, to lead the evan
gelistic campaign which begins in
the Adamston Methodist Episcopal
church next Sunday evening. The
Rev. Mr.. Baggett began his ministry
in this state and as young man es-
tablished quite a reputation as "a
preacher and a revivalist.
The Philippi Republican, of Febru-
airy, 1893, where he was stationed at
that time, had this item In regard to
a meeting he was holding in Bar

1.-THE meeting at the Methodist Epis-
copal church continues to increase
in interest. No greater awakening
has ever been experienced in, the
church in Philippl than has taken
place since our last issue. The
church Is being revived, cold men,
bers reclaimed and sinners are being
converted. Following Philippi's
great revival OF last spring SO close,
it Is a remarkable outpouring of the
spirit. The Rev. George S. Baggett
is presenting the Gospel in such an
able and earnest manner. and is so
devoted that the wonder Is that
there is sinner left in town and
the surrounding country"

Children Should Do Community's
 Household Tasks, Says Rosenbluth
Suggest That Squads of Boys and Girls Clean Streets and Keep Parks in Order During School
 Hours. :@.>

,(By Henrietta Rodnan in New York
 . Tribune.) $& iR
 Where is the home today?" de- manded MT. Robert Rosenbluth. Dr. Davis's assistant in the Departm ant of Corruption Its in the street isn't it-in the parks, factories shops?
 The home of the past was the chil- dren's world, where they worked and played and studied, whatever they did study, which wasn't much.
 "A great deal has been said about women's work having been taken out of the home, but very little's been said about schildrens work having been taken out and left out.
 What has become of the chores, of clea ming the paths and cutting grass: :: And what has become of the develop ment of character that grew out of the early acceptance of responsibil- ity?
 I am strongly in favor of Superin- tendent Wirt's plan of making the schools a community, many of whose needs are supplied by the work Of the children, but I want you school people to go even farther
 T want you to study every city de- partment, to find out what parts If their work for the city could be per- formed by boys and girls in the upper grades of the grammar school, what parts by high school students, what by college students.
 Then assign the youngsters to an- rropriate jobs or, better, let them choose their work as .Dr. Wirt doas. The younger boys and girls lc,,uld work as helpers to the older ones especially to the college students, as they do IT the Wirt shops.
 Evolution of Home Paths.
 .s Take the street cleaning, for ex- ample. The home paths have become the city streets, the lawns have be- come parks. Why not have squads of boys and girls of all classes, mind you, cleaning streets, keeping parks in CT der during school hours
 ss Exploitation ?--not nearly as much danger of it as there is when teachers are driven by the. curriculum to force their pupils through grammar and common divisors. The youngsters do- ing community chores would be work ing under their own front windows; mothers could keep an eye on their children.

THE GIRL FROM UTAH
 TO CLOSE PARSONS

- 4 -4 fS
 There are two remarkable features in Charles Trohman's tri-stars musical comedy cast of Julia Sanderson, Don aid Brian and Joseph Cawthorn i'll The Girl from Utah." which make this musical comedy unique and will undoubtedly be greatly appreciated when it is presented at the Parsons theater tonight and Saturday night, and at the Saturday matinee. The first is the revival of the old time prologue and epilogue of bygone days. The cur tain rises tosreveal plain plush back groundi before which appear the three stars attired as testers who, in song invite the audience to accompany them to the delightful Land of Let's Pre- tend" Then just before the closing ensemble, the stars reappear and sing the epilogue thanking the audience for its appreciation of it's efforts. The other feature is burlesuue orr the movies. In a grotcsque imitation Of the wild west. motion picture, Miss Sanderson Is seen as a helpless from tier wife, Donald Brian as a dashing cowboy william and Joseph Cawthorne as sturdy pioneer husband who shoots down the cowboy william for invading his home. The whole thing is a scream from start to finish and always con- vulses audiences. This is the closing show Of the season. a

 Who are to be the supervisors of the. children, to see that the work they do has educational value for the chil- dren ?" I inquired.
 we could afford to have the very best people in each line as the dir4c tors of the different types, of work. Under them as group leaders we'd have students from Hunter and the City college, and then would come the boys and girls of the public schools, from, say, the fourth grade up."
 He's Waiting His Chance.
 Are you ready to tay out your plan?"e'I asked.
 Well. I'm pretty busy with the work of the Department of Correc- tion,' answered Mr. Rosenbluth, but if you see any opening for trial e the scheme I wish you'd let me know. believe that if it were developed it would go long way toward solv- ing those problems dealing with juve- nile delinquency. There are no bad children, you know. The saying that crime is misdirected energy is tie truest thing in the world.

 An Exhibition of Ideas.
 The Julia Richman High school is having an exhibition of ideas. Very interesting, indeed. M It's class in sta tistics is working for the sdepartme of education in very much the way that MT. Rosenbluth suggests. # How do the girls like the worko' asked. MT.
