EDUCATION.

EDUCA ION. - It is amusing to
note how some people get it into
their heads that only by following a
certain determined course is one do
ing any active work for the better
ment Of mankind. They do not take
the trouble to understand that social
conditions present such a vast Sc
quence of phenomena that it is al
most impossible to solve all problems
through one channel
It does not necessarily follow that
because the Workers Institute is do
ing excellent work it is advisable to
let Loeb go on Unimpeded with his
reactionaTy policies. If we would sit
down and wait until the masses are
prepared to organize and join radical
schools we would do nothing but
help the continuance of existing con-
ditiOns.

potent factors in speeding the

cism is a powerful weapon. Discus

DISADVANTAGES OF SEX.-A
good deal of the trouble in life is
caused by the division of persons
into sexes. On the street cars the
girls are reading love stories; they
are thinking mostly of the coming
man The boys are absorbed in girls
and baseball
The original means provided by
nature for the perpetuatiOn of the
species was by division. The animal
would just split in two and there
would be two animals; split again
and we would have four, etc. If this
animal did not meet with an accident
and could find sufficient sustenanCe
it could keep on doing the split for
ever and immortality would be
solved. You would be born again"
every time you split. No partner or
children to bother, no alimOny or big
bills to pay.
Next nature evolved a double
sexed animal. Every person was his
or her own husband or wife. Just
think of the time and money saved
in cOurtship. But there were Off

the principle that the state is entitled
to a good and sufficient bond from its
fiscal officers.
The Herald seems to remember an
other absolutely objectionable crime.
1t offended all the politicians, most of
the lawyers and a number of court of
fcials of high and low degree. 1t had
to do with the highest legal tribunal
of the state. As the Herald viewed it,
it was absolutely warranted in the law
and the, constitution, yet the court
most interested was never permitted
to pass on it.
Why not? It this former governor
had unlawfully, unreasonably and VIC
lently violated the constitution in it,
| most sacred precincts, why was he
not hailed before the courts, or al
least his official deeds reviewed by the
court most Interested
Some Of these offenses pass casua

cies which, IS months ago, denounced

this maIefactor were being let off toe
easily, yet, is some of his assailantt

trial even yet. These are trying time

GNoME HAS PIG SCHOOL.

"a little Gnome named Ships
thought he would like to start a
School The Pupils he wanted were
the Pigs.
so one fine day he went to all the
Pigpens in the neighborhood and
talked to the Mother and Daddy Pigs.
Now you know he said, you sure
ly want your Children to know some
thing besides how to dig in the mud.
We'll, said Mrs. Fatty Pig (she
was named that because she was the
latest Pig in the country arOund), !
don't know that l care whether my
Children know anything or not. II
they don't know anything, they don't
know they're missing things-and
then they never have to worry or hur
ry or scurry.
"You see Mrs. Fatty Pig was so fat
all she wanted to do was to lie
around and eat ana sleep.
so Ships asked Mrs. Fattys Pigs
Husband what he thought about it
and all Mr. Fatty Pig did was to grunt
at everything Ships said.
But when he began to talk to few
of the younger Pigs they quite liked
the idea of going to School each day
and as the Mothers and Daddies didnr
mind at all one way or the other, the
very next morning all the young Pig:
arrived at Ships School.

Almost all of this talk about fish
culture, propagation of fish and stock
ing of streams takes into considera-
ton trout only and is based upon so
called craftsmanship, whatever that
means. for some of the men who cali
themselves sportsmen are the greatest
fish hogs in the world. Ism t it time
to give some consideration to fish cul-
ture as means Of reducing the high
cost of living? The Lowell, Mass,
Fish and Game association has evil

eeived 100000 pike-perch which have
been distributed in the rivers, ponds
and lakes near Lowell They are nat
ives of Lake Erie, and are not only
game fish but very tootEsome as well
Over Zoe tons of these fish are sold
by marketmen in Buffalo in a year

hollow. They all sat along the sides
of the Tree with their states of smooth
stones and their pencils OF cut stones,
which made white marks.
Now, said Ships, i have always
liked Pigs and / want to do all / can
for you. You must surely come every
morning to School, though, for every
lesson will be most important, and
don't want 10 hear OF any little Pig
staying away unless he is too sick to
walk
In the first place we are going to
learn what words mean and how to
spell them. Now take your own fam
lily name, for example. Pig-well that
name is thought to mean by some
People anyone who is greedy and
grabs everything he can. Such bad
idea 10 get of your Family. / know
it's quite untrue. so we must make
other People believe it's untrue too,
You see so many Of your Family
are lazy. We don't want TO think what
our Mothers and Daddies do is wrong
F, no, that wouldn't do. But your
Mothers and Daddies were brought up
wrong by People. They were put into
dirty pens. ana they thought it was
| quite right to be dirty.
So the next thing we must learn
is to be nice and clean. Write down
on your States pigs must not be
greedy. and We must be clean and
wash our faces and our feet every
day before School and after play and
before meals
And when the rairies heard thai
Ships was holding School each dag
for the Pigs they we're delighted
Ships said that they would give an
entertainment each month for the
Fairies to see now the Pigs got along
in school. And now fine set of Pigs
are working hard for their next month
