THE PUBLIC SCHOOL SQUAD
BLE.-If we only knew the educa-

regarding the above caption, it might
be worth while to give them some
answer.
But we know that most minds that
have had no scientific training can
hardly put their facts so they ap-
peal to a scholar. Especially is this
true in the matter of quotations. The
ordinary person who has not had a
college training does not understand
the force of quotations. To such q
one quotation marks with a name
after the quote" either confirms or
condemns what the heart desires
confirmed or condemned.
A. B. H. has done well to show
L. c. the necessity of adducing evil
denCe that will convict. L. c. and all
others quoting authorities should be
taught that names and words mean
nothing. The court wants the par
ticUlar person quoted distinguished
from all other persons; the court
also wants the time, place and all
the rest of the circumstantial evil
dence that make the quotation of
any value.
In most of these letters to The
Day Book there is much noise, but
little matter. They are the laudable
efforts Of unframed minds aroused
by generous hearts that wish to pro-
tect their own. So far so good; there
is some benefit.
