GET KNOWLEDGE OF COUNTRY
Japanese School Children Go on Out
ings as Part Of Their System
Of Education.

In Japan, beyond all other lands, the
whole world goes outing. Wherever
the traveller wanders ne meets crowds
of people on the highways, Frederick
Starr writes. These people fall into
three well marked classes. Everywhere
one sees school children on excursion.
There may be half dozen with one
teacher or there may be hundreds with
their teachers. They are out to view
the landscape, to see places famous In
the national history, to visit the scenes
Of old legends, to examine In detail the
various processes of art industries. 1t
Is considered as important pare OF
the school curriculum that the children
should see things and become acquaint-
ed with nature, with national history
and with practical sources Of wealth
as II Is that they should know arith-
metic, grammar or history. They are
out for an hour, day. a week. or a
vacation period. When first visited
Miyajima l met a group Of 40 school
boys with two teachers, who had nj
ready been two weeks on their eX-
cursion and had seen many interesting
things on their way to the exposition
at Fukuoka, in the southern Islands.
The night before they had been trav-
cling until after midnight and now
they had before them journey when
would keep them up until the early
hours of the morning; although they
were SO tired that they could hardly
stand they were full of enthusiastic
anticipation for the experiences that
lay ahead. The japanese are very
wise In making these excursions an
important feature of their schooi sys-

DICKENS TWO LOVE AFFAIRS
sfooraphers Generally Have Over.
looked Interesting Passages In the
Life Of the Great Novelist.

The many biographers of Charles
Dickens have made little mention of
his love affairs, though 1t Is certain
that the great novelist had loved pas
sionately In his time. says q writer In
London Ideas. II Is only In out-Of-the-
way little books that one comes across
such revelations as this:
"When only boy Of FIVE years
Charles Dickens had little playmate
named Lucy. beautiful fair-haired
child, whom he loved to distraction.
ut was his first love, and only .
baby affection at that, but the novelist
never forgot 1t. 1t Is a fact that she Is
the heroine Of at least one Dickens
novel,"
The original Of Dora Spenlow In
David COpperfield" was q later love
Of Dickens, and one which was un-
happy for him. The lady, early in the
acquaintance, encouraged his affec-
tions but her parents objected on the
score of the position he then held In
life, and she inclined to their view.
She went away to Paris to study art,
and completely forgot the unhappy
lover. Later, when Dickens had at.
tanned fame as novelist, she wrote to
him., and after a time there was
meeting.
But the lady whom the novelist had
known and loved had changed.
Charles Dickens, at all times senti-
mentalist, was prepared to fad her
grown old with him, but he did not
anticipate the change In her character,
And thus the attempt at reconciliation
failed Of its purpose.

EURoPE's ACCOMPLISHMENT.

I An American newspaper correspondent who
has returned to this country after months spent
in Paris finds that the president IS cabinet has
torn down his prestige here faster than he could
build it up abroad. Europe, he says, knew little
! of his official family, but the quality of its
knowledge was first class The surprise of the
French people when they took first the measure
of Secretary Baker was ludicrous and the effect
does not wear off. They could not be made to
understand how street car fights in Cleveland
mixed with pacifist lectures and Discrimination
to take any exercise except sucking diversified
pipe constituted an ideal training for secre-
tary of war.
And the English, according to this observer,
were no less bewildered and Supplied by Secre-
ltary Daniels The quaint references of the Tar

Now that he is again in touch with the cur
rent feeling in this country, this newspaperman

of Europe over the Wilson cabinet, and the

PSYCHOLOGICAL HEALING.

| Sioux City Journal: A rather
startling contribution was made to
the pathology Of nervous diseases IN
the report of Surgeon General Ire
land of the American army that
/ more than 1000 cases Of shell shock
were cured by the receipt OF the
news of the signing OF the armlstlce
and the cessation of actual fighting.
The layman has waited to see IL
there were any discussions Torthcom-
ing which might explain this pecu-
| liar psychological healing on
wholesale scale. There have oeen
none.
! The men who recovered were actu-
ally diseased if that term may be-
wrested from it's usual meaning to
/ express the condition. Some OF
them showed bodily disfigurements.
| Physicians have not questioned the
reality of shell shock. They have
not determined whether 1t is due to
! LESSONS or other displacements OF
nerve or brain matter or to some
cause not yet thought of. The VIC
| tins were not towards who siinulat-
ed that they might escape the dam
gers of battle. Most Of those suffer
| ing from the peculiar malady had
| been tested under conditions In
/ which their courage and bravery and
/ grit stood the severest strain. They
! had faced death in it's most horrible
| form without flinching and with
GOODNESS far removed from fear. Yet
in moment they fell victims to
she'll shock.
The cure was as curious as the
disease. The mental processes call
ed into action by the news of vic
tory, healed the injury and restored
the nerves to normal conditions. II
the men had been shamning they
would not have betrayed their hypo-
! crisy by getting well. Moreover,
those restored to health were locat-
ed in widely separated and numer-
Gus hospitals. There was no con-
certed action. They did not know
of each others recovery. Hence, it
may be resumed that the cure was
real and material
Did the magnetic current which
the intelligence sent through the
human body, current like that
which induced staid women and
dignified men to whoop and yell and
cheer and shout in this country,
leap across the chasm of disordered
nerve tissue and call into life and
service those portions which were
comatose If not dead, and so work
the cure? Or is the disease one Of
the imagination, intelligence de-
throned in the particular instance,
SO that knowledge Of the impossibili-
ty Of its recurrence destroyed the |
hallucination and restored the pa |
tfent? The incident of the recovery
has opened the way for research by
the healing professions that must |
result in wonderful good in the
treatment and cure of nervous di. |

UNFORTUNATE INHARMoNY.

It is unfortunate that there should be such
inharmony between the legislative and execu-
tive branches of government that the president
will not accede to any request of the senate until
he is compelled to. He witholds on one pretext
or another, or without explanation, information
which senate resolutions ask. He withheld the
covenant until the senate obtained it for itself.
He withheld the special defensive treaty with
France which by its own terms should have
been submitted at the same time with the treaty
league. He announced that he would submit it
at some later date, and spokesman who profess
ed to voice him told the country that he would
not send it to the senate until after his return
from his transcontinental tour.
At this the senate began to discuss the desir-
ability of disseminating consideration Of the
covenant until the French treaty was forthcom-
ing. An alternative proposition was that the
senate should take a recess during the execu-
tive's absence from the capital if he departed
before sending in the treaty with France At
this the president saw the matter suddenly in
a new and vivid light. He capitulated without
delay and promptly sent the document to the
senate. But the fact to be borne in mind is that
he made no concessions until it was wrung from
him; and this has been his principle of action
ever since the armistice was signed. He has
yielded nothing to the senate that he has not
been forced to yield
This is highly unfortunate state of tension.
People generally will agree to this although
they may not agree in fixing the responsibility
therefor Yet the existing condition is broadly
analogous to jury hung up eleven to one
Commonly in such cases public sentiment con-
dennis the one man who stands out against the
rest But in this instance partisans of the
treaty-league assail and vilify the eleven who
refuse to yield to the one.
In any event, it is deplorable state Of affairs.

Oh, why should the strong oppose the weak

There is enough for all.

And drops from the toiling band,

Then lend him helping hand.

Nor season the speech with gall

Steps out your track ahead,
Don't grudge his start with an enVious heart,

BRYAN FOR PRESS SUPERVISOR.

William Jennings Bryan breaks forth IN song
to comment that ''some day all news will be Is
sued through government channels and will
have the approval of proper authority before
lit is printed" This is an astounding statement
from the editor and publisher Of a newspaper
1t is also astounding in the face OF the present
record of government control and the still more
farcical demonstration of government control OF
news under the leadership of Creel Mr. Bryan
is one newspaper man. There are many thou
sand others who have had sufficiently naus-
eating demonstration of "creeling" during the
war to cure them of any repetition of such con-
ditions Even as badly as such government
censorship was handled by Mr.. Creel, the news
papers toed the mark to help in their big way
toward the winning of the war. But such con-
dition is bad enough in war times; in peace
times it is unthinkable.

For the last ten years the impor-

trade has the financial backing of
one of the largest banks In Japan.

Formosa are under government SUI

the Japanese postoffice. A large and
