PHILRPNE- Schools.


THE United States. with its many
1 empty country school houses. its
millions who cannot read or write
English, and its miserably undergrad
school teachers. might do well to
study the example OF it's great Pacific
colony, the Philippine Islands.
The Philippine legislature recently
passed a bill appropriating s3O.000.O0o
for free education. There are over =
million children in the Islands. and
it is estimated that within five years
a good school will be open 20 every
one OF them This appropriation for
schools Is the largest ever made for
any one thing IN the history Of the
legislature. The attitude OF the les
islators and the people toward the
matter may be guaged by the fact
that the measure was passed by a
unanimous vote one hour after # was
introduced
Heretofore only about half the
children OF the islands have been able
10 attend school, and the schools have
been supported in part by matricula-
ton and tuition fees This measure
Is designed to make primary educa-
ton absolutely free.
The Islands are reported to be IN a
vigorous state OF Industrial health.
as they have been for some years.
The degree OF interest which Ameri %
cans feel in their colonial possessions
Is indicated By the fact that scarcely
anything about the great Island edu-
catioual project has appeared In the
press Of this country

Indications this morning were that
by afternoon the entire supply OF
army bacon would have been disposed
of. by the city in its cost plus sales.
The sales will close out one OF the
largest meat deals in the city's his
tory, including eight tons OF sugar
cured ham, four tons of strip bacon
and two tons of canned bacon. All OF
the army food was offered to the city
by the Mayors Food Committee at an
advance of only two cents over army
prices.
Word was received by Mayor Dor
sey this morning from the officer In
charge of the New York zone that the
city's order for canned goods had
would be filled at the earliest possible
date.
The Mayor said that he hoped to
get the food in time to have sales
next week. There is still some of
the corn syrup undisposed of. The
syrup is so heavy that It has been
brought into the city in lots of few
hundred cans of q time and there 10
still balance at the warehouses. The
syrup has proved to be one of the
fastest sellers, the supply never
meeting the demand.
Asked whether he knew of the plan
of the cops to present petition to the
Aldermen, Mayor Dorsey said that he
had been advised that such move
ment had been started but that he
did not know any of the details of
the demands.
