DIR. SISSON
GIVES VIEWS
Points OutNeeded Improve
ments in School Room.

"The man who can get out and
walk 20 miles or ride a horse, or saw
wood, is better off in many respects
than the one who can succcssfully ,
conjugate an irregular German verb,
and who hasn't the physical strength
to do any one of the former things"
said DR.. E. o. Sisson in the first of
his series of lectures at the CONNER
cial club Friday evening. Dr.. Sisson S
topic was "The Physical Basis; Body
and Mind
Along with this Dr. Sisson threw a
harpoon into that great American in
stitution known as the public, which,
he said poured all kinds of patent
medicine fakes down its throat, wore
all kinds of fake belts and pads-and
seemed to like them.
ROOMS CROWDED
There was a good attendance to
hear the speaker, and his remarks
were largely technical, with consid-
cradle amount of humor thrown in
for spice.
In his syllabus the speaker told of
the child and it's environments, and
in this respect he said the child, as
pupil, needed more attention on Il
part of the people toward its early
education Its development did not
rest, he said, entirely with the teach
er and the school BOARD so far as its
education was concerned.
NEED INTELLIGENCE
Schools have literally been ravaged
by all sorts of opinions. We are try
ing to discard these insofar as possible
and get on basis of intelligence. All
our decisions should be based on dem
onstratable, observable facts. The
child must be studied in order to see
what it is best fitted for so far as
study is concerned. It's environments
should be looked after. Because of
this necessity the word kindergartner
came into use. This means nothiI

SCHOOLS SMALL MATTER
The school, he said, was compara-
lively small factor in the education
and development Of the child. Lin
coin only went to school a few months
and yet he was one of the best edu-
Gated men of his time
From the development of the child,
DR.. Sisson took up the study and hab-
it's of the adult. He discussed the
material and spiritual sides of the
man, and said that what is known as
the brain is where the material and
spiritual universe meet He declared
that insanity generally had it's origin
in physical defects frequently orir
ginated in the brain. He touched on
the power of mind over matter, altho
he left the solution of these problems
for others to solve.
81 do not approve of Greek in our
high schools, and | am prone to think
we have too much Latin" said the
speaker.
The Greeks, he said were given to
athletics, music, literature and poll
tics. Athletics brought grace to the
body, while music and literature were
good for the development of the mind.
The speaker did not say what poll
tics were good for

HOW ABOUT JAPAN =?
By Frederic ]. Haskin
CONTINUED From Editorial Page1

Manchuria have a direct interest in
the way the Manchurian railways are
run. They have right to demand the
same treatment for all concerned in
the matter of freights, and when Jap
an carries Japanese goods free, or at
half price, she violates those rights.
What is less matter of principle and
more to the practical point, she puts
the foreign competitor out of busi-
ness. American cotton trade is a case
in point Formerly it led in Man
churia; now it is far behind.
While it is impossible to excuse
the Japanese policy on such ground,
foreign merchants took some consola-
tion from the fact that the new pro-
gram was to be in effect for only one
year. The same eXtenuating circum-
stance seemed to attach to many 9TH
er abuses-they might prove only tenn
porary. For instance, there was the
matter of import duties. 1t was charg-
ed by many foreign merchants that
Japanese goods were being imported
free of duty. while foreign goods
were taxed Such charges were hard
to substantiate, because the Japanese
officials fatty denied them, but they
arose so spontaneously from so many
different sources that ii is difficult to
see how they could all have been un-
founded.

Norfolk nd Western Must
Drop Old Dominion Line
BY Associated Press

Washington, Aug. 2S. - The In
terstate Commerce Commission held
to-day that the Norfolk and Western
Railway must be excluded from inter-
est in the operation of the Old Domin-
ion Steamship company and the Vir-
ginia Navigation company under the
Panama Canal Act which prohibits
railway ownership of water lines.
The commission. however, held that
the Chesapeake and Ohio, the Sea-
board Air Line, the Atlantic Coast
Line and Southern Railways may
continue to participate in the opera
ton of the Old Dominion and the Vir-
ginia Navigation company because it
is to the advantage OF commerce and
in the interest of the public. The
continued operation of the Chesa-
peake Steamship company by the
Southern Railway and the Chesa-
peake and Ohio Railway and the oper-
alton of the Baltimore Steam Packet
company by the Atlantic Coast Line
Railway also was authorized.
