FEMININE PATRIOTISM.

quires no argument 10 establish the
fact that woman is creature Of more
delicate structure, and hence OF finer
sensibility, than man. She loves more
passionately, hates more intensely wor-
ships more devoutly, suffers more Keen
ly than her comparatively stolid and

define the limits of her capacity for
anger or joy, hope or despair, pity
jealousy, envy or pride. II is not sur
prising, therefore, when patriotism Is
the order of the day, to find that 1t
has taken firmer hold on women than
on men, and that women are in the
vanguard where love of country leads. "
Women have given their sons, their
brothers and their husbands to the
cause; they have gone in large numbers
to the European battlefields to nurse
the i'll and the wounded; they are knit

CossACKs As sAvIORss

Guthrie Leader: The plan suggested
hy prominent Russians to- make the
Cossacls the nucleus Of protective
and administrative force for the en-
forcement of discipline In behalf Of the
provisional government u not one which
will have n general sedative effect.
The punitive functions Of the Cossacks
are too well known 20 the Russian
masses TO warrant the expectation that
a revival of Romanoff methods, I'm the
name OF democracy, however urgent the
exigency. win have the exact effects
some seem to promise, and nothing
more. There il already half formed
suspicion that some OF the advocacy OF
"A restoration Of bloody discipline in th"
army masks a maneuver To restore
monarchy in some form. modified great.
ly from the structure recently over
thrown, but n monarchy nevertheless.
To have the Cossacks become the In
strument Of punishment and the center
of a governmental movement for iron
handed discipline TO include the civilian
as well as military population might
unfortunately strengthen the suspicion
already aroused and active and give IL
destructive force.
The Cossacks were the late Cars
favorite weapon against the masses for
all purposes and the public has not
forgotten its experiences with that por-
tion of the country military forces
well enough to welcome them as the
instrument 10 save them from their
natural political mistakes. II il is ac-
tually necessary to resort to such pro-
cedures TO establish a guarantee or
safety for the public and surety for
the government the factions have split
their new republic more than the rest
Of the world has supposed. An addi-
tional risk is involved in the question
whether the army may be revitalized
by the stern measures said to be in
preparation, especially If the leadership
of the Cossacks as a specific element
of protection and defense is insisted
upon. 1t may make worse the disaf'
lection in the army. without bringing
advantage in any other way.

ALL YEAR ROUND SCHOOLS.

The United States commissioner of
education, addressing an audience AT
the dedication OF new junior high
school building In Tennessee. advocated
eleven full months or forty.eight weeks
Of school a year Mr.. Claxton spoke
~ longer school terms as n necessity
brought about by the war.
The country is going to need greater
number of educated men and women,
and il will need them soon. If their
present training can be accomplished
sooner without crowding, ii should be
done
But all.year.round schools are not an
entirely new idea. Before the war
technical high schools found that more
pupils could take advantage of the
training offered II they could get
through the course i'm three years by
attending regular sessions in summer
as well as in winter. Mid-winter pro-
motions and summer schools rose to
meet that need. Colleges. too. have
found many students eager for the
summer session work.
Long vacations aren't really neces-
sary any more They have lasted over
from times Wnen weather an" oNNuP'
ton were features that had to be con
sidered. In districts where roads We're
impossible in the winter the long va
cation came at that time of ye&. And
where farm work was part OF every
boy and girls life the school closed
Early in the spring and didn't open
until late In the fall.
Teachers can take term off under
the new regime just as they always
have taken the three summer months.
or they can teach all but four weeks
OF the year with the attraction OF a
salary that isn't cut off three months
out Of every twelve.
Perhaps the youngsters won't ike
the thought of no long vacation at all.
But even they'll not find it so dis
acreeable in practice.
