SCHOOL ECONOMY.

W men the alTOankS sCnOO UOdIu
recently asked for funds for purchas-
ing new books and new laboratory
timent that the need was imperative,
and should be met at any cost. II
developed however. at the council
meeting held last Monday night that
the primary demand for new kinds
Of books and more physical labora-
tory equipment was to convert the
local high school into a preparatory
institution for the big universities
on the Outside
community would be justified in
going 10 much expense in bringing
its high school up to standard
required for university preparatory
work, but such thing in Fairbanks
under present conditions would mean
Increased taxation for the aid of but
very few individuals.
The members of the present city
council are doing all in their power.
debtedness that the city is now car.
rying 1t is fallacy for a school
board to try unnecessarily to hamp-
er this worthy effort by giving TO
the school metropolitan standards
that are not justified. Last year
there were but three graduates from
the local high school and this year
there will be but five, and possibly
but four One OF last years sradu-
ington, but there is no indication
that any Of this years class will so
to university.
1t is quite evident, then, that
only once in two or three years will
the local high school graduate a
person who is seeking higher lines
of work. To spend thousands Of
dollars for the aid Of these occa-
sional graduates when the city has
~ iild1S OtilSi NSlAAduuS " IIcel, &c
not just TO the people. II would be
better TO let the student who wants
to go to a university pay his own
expenses for year in an Outside
high school or other preparatory in
stitution than 10 burden the local
taxpayers for the purpose Of saving
him this time and expense.
The average graduate OF high
school has but little practical use
for advanced physics. He can learn
from his text books and from a
I moderate laboratory all that will be
necessary for him in the ordinary
demands OF life. and then why should
! the whole equipment Of our schools
be thrown aside TO give way 10 the
equipment demanded by the big uni.
versities. when our present line OF
textbooks and our present labora.
tory equipment will meet the demands
Of our immediate needs.
The proposed new equipment is
in line with the plan outlined by
Principal karrer, but there is rea.
son TO believe that he will accept
a position on the Outside and q new
principal will take his place here
next winter. Would it not be we'll
first to see if this will be done, and
If SO, let the new man have some
say in regard to what changes are
to be made, II any are necessary?
Further, II must be remembered
that the Territory has adopted q
uniform school law, and until the
provisions Of that are received here
and it is definitely known il all
schools are to have the same kind
of books, what would be the use Of
buying new supply for Fairbanks?
The council is right in question
ing this expenditure, and the people
will stand back OF the members in
insisting OH 1etrcnchment in all lines
Of expenditure.

MEMBERS OF the Fairbanks city
council are beginning to win the con-

REPORTS from the Tolovana dis

WOULD II not be better to have
city with an accredited financial
standing than a high school with
an accredited equipment?

wearing of belts has increased the

No Congratulations"

When Otto Edward Leopold VOL, Bismarck Schoenhausen was born the embarrassed parents wrote to their friends: kindly dispense with con- gratulations." Why? The event hap. pened in Germany, where All Fools day was still significant. But Bis marck was born to take the stiug out of Der Tag. On one thing, however, he remained a fool nearly his whole life long-his idolatry of beer. fiis reply to those opposed to him in this mat ter would probably have been to pro- duce a huge silver jug and ill it with Bavarian beer. "That is the head" he would say, of Field Marshal Derf' finger, conqueror of the Swedes, and one of my ancestors" This Derfllinger, when a boy, was apprenticed to a tailtu. His master sent him for a jug of beer. On his way back he drank up the beer, and in terror en' listed-"with much advantage to the Fatherland, as Bismarck pointed out. But beer proved Bismarck's un- doing, and he had to abandon the hab 1t by medical advice.
