CONVICTED, PAROLED.
Charles Lewis Promises to Stay Away
From His Wife.

Following a part of the state evil
dence in the preliminary examination
of Charles Lewis, the Hebrew, who
slashed his wife about two weeks ago
because he claimed she was worse
than the vampire of fiction" Lewis
was sentenced to one year in the
county Jail and paroled on condition
that he stay away from his wife. The
alleged assault occurred in North To-
peka.
Lewis was arrested on a charge of
assault with the intent to kill. The
warrant was amended following to-
days hearing to read assault and bat
terry. Lewis had just returned home
from the northern harvest fields
when he got into trouble. He went
to visit his wife, trouble started when
he accused her of patterning after
Kipling's vampire, it is said, and the
cutting followed.
His wife today agreed that the COM
plant be amended and that Lewis be
paloled providing he stay away from

Fault of Education
By William Brady, NJ. D.

Whatever may be tho policies OF
school boards and superintcNdents. it
is gratifying TO know that many good
teachers take ii upon themselves to
instruct their pupils in posture, breath
ing and practical hygiene When your
little John or Mary comes home with
such ncwfanEled ideas you may con
graduate yourself upon the competence
OF the teacher.
There is one great fault in modern
education. at least In the education OF
the majority of school children. We
who grew up handy by the old swim
ming hole were not denied instruction
in the noble art OF self-support--in
water Nowadays swimming holes are
comparatively few and far between.
and what there are Of them may very
likely he considered contaminated and
dangerous, ii parents are not chicken
hearted about letting the Youngsters
avail themselves of daily DIP.
The public school ought to teach
swimming. Recent trends OF educa-
ton seem TO follow more practical
direction than has been the custom in
the past; Manual training is receiv-
ing fair share Of consideration in
the public schools. The young grad
uate is IL lot better equipped than we
were in our day.
IL asked to choose for our children
between course of instruction in
swimming and course In algebra or
bookkeeping or astronomy, VIC would
unhesitantly declare for swimming.
There are conceivable occasions when
algebra. bookkeeping and astronomy
would be OF little avail. and an ele-
mentary knowledge of self-support in
the water might prove exceedingly
valuable. not only for the individual.
but for others.
The swimming tank in ;hc public
school Is the next logical stem in prac-
teal education. Manual training and
the open-air schoolroom have elimi-
mated Il lot of senseless examining and
fogyiSm from the preliminary school
course. Let us install the swimming
tank and turn out self-coniident men
and women instead OF timu molly
coddles.
