FISH AND GAME
INQUIRIES ANSWERED

The inland fisheries and. game COM
mission department has received nu-
merous inquiries in regard to the nom
resident fishing law and other meas
urcs passed by the last Legislature and
in response to these inquiries the de-
partment is calling attention to the
fact that laws passed by the Legisla-
ture which are not emergency meas
ures do not 90 into effect until 80 days
after the adjournment of the Legisla-
ture, which, this year, would be on
July Z.
This 90-day extension applies to the
nonresident fishing law and also to
the various private and special meas
urcs relating to fish and game which
are embodied in the code act. The act
abolishing the commissioners of inland
fisheries and game and creating COM
missioner of inland fisheries and game
is one of the three measures which
has been held up by the referendum so
that act is suspended until an election
is ordered upon it and the people have
chance to vote upon the measure.

Noted American Sculptor
JOHN J. BOYLE DIED IN NEW
YORK RECENTLY.

John ]. Boyle, the noted American
sculptor, died recently i'll New York.
Mr.. Boyle,S last work was the statue
Of Commodore John Barry, at Wash
ington, d. c., which was unveiled in
May, 1914. Many examples of his
Skill are to be seen in American and
European cities. His first big work
was an Indian group for Lincoln Park,
Chicago. The rotunda of the Con
gressional Library, Washington, con-
tains two statues made by him. Mr..
Boyle studied drawing at the Franklin
Institute, Philadelphia, and later took
a course in the Academy of Fine Arts,
followed by period Of study in Paris.
He received many honors during his
career, and filled various high offices
in art circles. Through all, he was an
exemplary Catholic, and the gather
ing at his funeral, which took place
from the Church of the Blessed Sacra-
ment, bore witness to the esteem in
which he was held by both Catholics
and non-Catholics.

mind. The greatest deeds, the
most astounding achieve ments in
the history of the race have been
the effect Of patriotic effort. One
of the most terrible threats hurled
against the Jews by Chris t Himself
was the prophecy that their very

and that the Roman army would
attack them in their st ronghold,
and beat them and their q ty flat to
the ground.

PAROCHIAL SCHOOL RIGHTS

Recently the Supreme Court Of
Kansas, upheld the right of the
Board Of Education to require
graduates of parochial schools to
pass an examination to enter high
schools, where the courses of study
in the grade and parochial schools
are not the same, although claimed
to be of equal value. In a test case
made at Parsons. Kansas, it was
decided that the Board Of Educa-
ton in that state had no right to
make such a. ruling where the
same courses Of study were offered
and the same work required. An
amount of work that was simply
equivalent would not cntitle pupils
to admission to the high schools
without examination.
While this decision was local in
character, confined to the State OF
Kansas, it shows, nevertheless, the
tendency frequently pointed out to
standardize the schools of the
country III such a way that not
only equivalent work would be
permitted i'll the private schools
but the same text books and meth
dds Of teaching must be used.
Many educators are of the opinion
that this system will gradually eX-
tend until it embraces the whole
country.
While much may be said both
for and against such method
of Imification our parochial
schools will have nothing to fear
even if forced to submit to such
ruling. 1t is generally admitted
that the Catholic schools are
superior to the public schools,
taking them group by group. The
reason thereof is to be found in
the fact that the teachers III the
parochial schools devote not sim
ply few hours but thei II whole
lives, energy and conScienc &c to the
work. On the other hand the pu-
pills are taught as Il mattel OF con-
science their obligation TO study
and to profit by the inst .ructions
given them. 1t may be added also
that i'll many Of our p arochial
schools the discipline eXacted and
enforced is of a much hi CHER or
der than that usually to he found
in the public schools.

1t is noticeable that during the
past few years, since the elective
system has been introduced into
high schools and colleges, that the
average person of education shows
an cver-diminishing familiarity
with the personages OF classic lit
erature. The press, books, poems,
lectures, and magazine articles
frequently contain references to
the great characters of classic
thought, ancient and modern. All
such references fail to evoke a re-
Spouse in the mind of the average
person since the average person
seems TO have no knowledge OF the
originals. If the new plan of edu-
cation. which is to be worked out
at Columbia University, succeeds,
we may expect the next generation
to be entirely ignorant Of all the
great names that have graced the
pages of the classics in the past.
