BLAZING TIE WRONG TRAIL.

One of the leading farm journals of
the south is authority for the state
ment that in the rural nigh schools Of
North Carolina seven thousand chill
dren are studying Latin, while only
seven hundred are studying agricUl-
ture.
The significance of these figures
are not grasped until We learn that
of the pupils attending high school in
this country not more than one per
cent ever reach the college or uni
versity.
When we assimilate the further
fact that the high schools do no. and
can not impart a working knowledge
of the Latin languages, we begin to
appreciate the utter foOlishness of an
educational system that forces upon
children the study of a dead language
from which not one in 1000 will ever
benefit.
The above figures may vary in 9th
er states-we hope they do. But they
serve to call forcibly to our attention
a glaring fault in the school system
OF the United States.
Any system that requires boys and
girls (who in many cases can i'll If
for the time and means to attend even
high schOoD to waste from a quarter
to a fifth of their school life on a
study that will never benefit them in
life's struggle, is not a blunder it is
a CRIME.
Consider again. Of the 1000 study
ing Latin, there are only 700 studying
agriculture. These figures also may
vary in other states, but still any one
familiar with the school system of
this country knows that the proper
ton of our rural boys and girls who
secure competent education in agri-
culture is lamentably small.
And what is the conclusion? Why
that we are welded in our schools to
fossilized, petrified and antiCuated
system that drains; that in order to
acquire an education" one must be
conversant with language that is so
everlastingly dead it has not been
generally spoken on earth in the last
thousand years. And this while the
crying, burning needs of the hour
are sidetracked as of minor import
ance.
1t is time for the rural population
of our country to arise in their might
and DEMAND that the schools cease
educating their children away frOn,
the farm.
The professions are overcrowded
| and the trades are in even worse con
dition. The farmers job is the only
! one in this land that promises career
without the paralyzing competition tC
! be met in other lines. Yet instead OF
being trained for efficiency in this
great calling our youths are com
PEELED to fritter away their time on a
course Of study that, to be in any
sense beneficial, must be followed
through the college or university
which the very smallest per cent Of
them ever reach.
The day of the antiquarian, the
dreamer, the mummy, is past in this
country. The age demands ACTION
and the mind that is not trained to il
in capital letters is doomed to be left
at the starting wire.

WOMAN'S DRESS NOT MODERN
Recently Discovered Drawings Prove
That Dame Fashion Has Reisned
for Quite Lengthy Period.

Rock drawings recently laid bare in
the Spanish peninsula have discovered
to us very interesting period of pre-
historic man. From a lecture recent
~ delivered in London by Sir Arthur
Evans of the British Archaeological as
ISOLATION ii appears that palaeolithic
woman was not only dressed, but most
gracefully. At Cogul the drawings in
dictate that the sacred dance was per-
formed by women, clad from the waist
downward in well-cut gowns, whilst
in the rock shelter of Alpera the dress
Of the same skirted ladies is supple
nlented by thin flying sashes. In the
paintings at Cueva de Ia Yiege women
are seen with still longer gowns ris-
Ing 10 their bosoms, their shoulders
yelled in scars
Thus we are astonished 10 find that
fashion has much longer history
than has been hitherto believed.
These recent discoveries are the
more interesting because hitherto
amongst wealth of wonderfully
drawn animals and sign writings the
human figure has been extremely rare
/ in European discoveries of the kind.
and it is reassuring To know that our
predecessors at period even as re-
mote rs this were not without the
charm and comfort of clothes, and
that woman was then, rs now. a pi-
oneer in the great and enthralling arts
of dress and adornment.

USE BASEBALL AS PACIFlER

DR. Laure Muller. the ambassador

Among American republics may be de.

Hampshire Gazette.
Coming on the heels Of the announce
ment Of Bishop Brent that the head
hunting M0ros of the Philippines have
beaten their swords into baseball bats.
aud the assertion Of other authorities
that the cheerful yelling OF the
'bleachers' is now heard around the
world this suggestion tends To begct
something more than an amused smile.

peace and friendship? And if an all
American, why not an allworld league?

absolute fairness to ala lesson the

PIPE DREAMS OF CITY MAN
Raising Spuds at One Dollar eushel
Certainly Looks Good to Us,
BY Heck!

When I am old and bent and worn,
with hair all gray and pants all torn,
and town has grown too swift ror me,
and in my backs a miseree, I'll take
my bundle meath my arm and go and
settle on a farm, and In the spring
and in the mud each square foot ]
will plant a spud, then with a nice
self-starting hoe I'll coax the lowly
spud to grow, as spuds were never
coaxed before, and they shall Irvine
about my door, and shall drink up
the morning dew, and shade the wind
ing avenue that sort Of turns and
twists and crawls TO get to my an
ccstral halls.
And paris green by pecks I'll lug
to put on each pertater bug. I'll keep
the weeds out of the rows, and when
hot wind comes and blows I'll
sprinkle each one from a can and sit
beside it with a fan until the danger
has gone by; will not let it wilt and
die.
And when dead leaves are earth
ward tossed and when a norther
threatens frost I'll get cute little
union suits to put upon the spuddish
beauts. | shall know each last spud
by name and pet each one and make
II tame; so that when autumn comes
apace I'll go and open up my face
beside the bars and call each spud by
name, and it shall leave the mud and
leave the vine, and leave the tree,
! when my call comes, and follow me.
And I shall hike away to town and
/ where the roads go winding down the
spuds shall follow me, and 90 where
hungry men rush to and fro in search
Of spuds. and they shall pay a PUNK
a peck for spuds that day, and / shall
get wad Of kale as big as any cotton
I bale. That's what I'll do when l am
old and when my blood is getting cold.
l think I'll do it, anyhow; but I've not
/ time TO start it now.-Judd Lewis, in
Houston Post.
