THE FIGHT WITH UNHEALTHY.

heroine to point in life where she
has to face old acquaintances and
conditions under new and soul-trying
circumstances, has her to mediate in
thls Wise: There was an instructive
FEELING that of real justice she had no
rear. She had nothing whatever to
hide from eyes that could see reality.
Her fight lay with unreality. with hy-
pocrisy' with the shallow, bitter little
souls that muddle ambition, jealousy
suspicion and -mindedness to-
gether and call the result morality"
here Is where we all have to fight
big battle, and here is where we
often fall into the wrong viewpoint
or things. We misunderstand others
and others misunderstood us. All of
us nave some failings that make us
tremble at the thought of being ex-
posed to the merciless light of day.
All of us submit sometimes to the
promptings of motives that on sober
reflection we are ashamed to own ND
fault by an attempt at assumed inno-
cence or else plead ignorance. We
like to have other people accept our
explanation and give us credit for
good intentions. We assume the odium
of bad judgment or unsophistication
rather than assume responsibility for
the promptings of the evil element in
our nature The little child soon
learns to dodge a reprimand by max

dren have not outgrown the habit.
Many times We are unjustly blamed
and we wonder why 1t is we cannot
get a fair deal. II is just because the
lying Is so common that people look
for lie before they do for the truth. (
But If we are worried because peo-
pie do not believe the truth when we
tell 1t, but Insist on putting the worst |
possible construction on what we have |
done, let us remember at the same |
time that on the average we have

us. 1t is not the realities of this world
that make 1t appear so desperately
wicked and SO universally insincere
1t is the unrealities the imaginings of
the mind that credits every body else
with the same selfish conception of |,
moral duty as itself. Every man has
within his heart the germ of a desire
to do right, and If we would have the I
world grow better we should foster
md encourage that germ. Every mis- I
understanding, every harsh judgment. l

THE MELTING POT.

Tho Wichita Eagle takes note of the
case Of Kansas farmer who wishes
TO take his boy out of tho public
school and send him to q private Cor
man school, and suggests that laws
should be passed to prevent this. The
father, being II German himself and
probably imbued with tho idea that
everything German Is little superior
to things American. has the notion
that his boy should be trained to be
German living In a strange land
rather than have him become Amer
iconized and grow into loyal citizen
of the United States. We doubt If
any law that seeks to restrain the
liberty OF the father to send his son
To any school he prefers could stand
the test Of constitutionaity. Com
pulsory education statutes have never
gone to the lengths of compelling the
attendance Of all children In the pub
lie schools. but did insist that they
should spend II certain proportion of
each year in somo good school n
the German school fills tho bill of be-
ing able to train children up to the
ordinary standard Of intcllcCtuality,
either Rs good or better than the
public schools. we see no reason why
fcrc. If the boy gains by the change, |
that Is the fault OF our schools. II .
ho loses, Il is questionable whether !
we could fasten any responsibility on /
the parent FOR tho results OF his bad
Judgment. We could bc sorry for the |
hoy. but there we would have to stop. |
II would be a dangerous precedent TO
say that law had the power to specify
what particular school any pupil
should have to attend.
That however. is not the main
point and the Eagle is right in con
dcmnng the action OF the boys

ilaton of foreign clements into our
