small-of the county printing They
receive legal rates for the delinquent
tax lists and some other publications
and small pay for printing the county
school board and commissioners MIL
utes. The city, however, does not
publish anything except the most nee
essary legal advertisements and coun-
ell proceedings, the latter being print
ed free At present this town and
county have accurate and conscien-
tious clerks. but the entire state is not
so well off, and the wirepulling to OBJ
tain printing and fattery, suppress
sion of truth and downright lying to
hold it in some papers is most detri-
mental to the public interest and dis
reputable to journalism.
1t is possible for the legislature to
pass law that will enable the lead
ing newspapers of the state to supply
their readers with official news at a
decent remuneration, without goug-
ing the taxpayers, and if it does so
the Star will be glad to see it, tho, the
truth is, if this paper had been obliged
to depend on official patronage for a
living it would have been dead years
ago.

Some will be quick to say that this is
a good thing-and others perhaps.
viii sigh for the other days when
children were taught to honor their
parents, and learned to play games
and maybe TO dance and sing and
draw pictures and cut paper dolls and
read story books, and think, at home.
Problems discussed by educators
now and always have included the
possibilities of handling the "dull''
students with the bright ones-and a
way that might help out would be to
allow full portion of time to young
children for acquiring that essential
to all Observation-Disclosures More
now than ever children need and de-
serve to be taught to read and write
English and to acquire the rudiments
of arithmetic. Every child is entitled
to this much and few would fan to
secure this necessary foundation if
given a fair chance-and by this it
meant time enough and fewer compli-
cations.

LET THEM CLEAN THEIR
OWN BACKWARDS

The Alcovy is a less STORED river
than the Rhine, but on it there is a
real, not fake, horror-one in which
negroes, so far from being the ag-
gressors, are victims. The chained and
weighted bodies that have been drag
ged from the Alcovy and neighboring.
Georgia waters are those of colored
men who were "peons" is, prac-
tically slaves. When they became
"bigoty" or wanted to leave, their
master, another Legree, had only to
say to his executioner, "Clyde, Pm
scared of that negro" and another
.peon was butchered and tossed into
the Alcovy. Though no threats of
lynching party are reported from
Jasper county, there are signs of ac-
ton on the part of the states attor-
ney general. The murders will, per-
haps, from their very enormity be of
assistance to the department of JUS
tice in its task of freeing Georgia and
other states of the peonage curse.
Some of the disabilities under which
negroes labor canont be removed by
any national means, but slavery un-
der another name can be stamped out.
The law-abiding citizens of the South
will surely assist the government to
the limit in that task Here is some
thing vital to Americas good name
for Mr.. Daugherty to accomplish.
Here is his chance to prove that Pres
ident Harding is a good judge of men.
New York Tribune.
The foregoing from the Tribune is
about as fair to the South as a re-
publican paper ever gets to be. The
Tribune does not 60 far enough to in
sinuate that Georgia and the whole
South are implicated in an outrage
that occurred in an out-of-the-way
corner of one southern state, but it
insinuates that the South as whole
is not regretful of an event that has
slightly reduced the republican vote.
There are nearly three million peo-
pie in Georgia. the most of whom are
as good as any in the world. They
hate murder and oppression, and will
heavily punish the criminals in this
case. But Georgia is big state, and
there are many wide spaces in it,
where such things can go on for a
/ time without officials or good citizens
knowing of them. When they learn,
they act; and quickly.
1 There are a great many outrages
on white people in New York, tho its
ten or eleven million people are pack
ed in an area less by twelve thousand
miles than that of Georgia. There
was more crime in New York city in
a few months of the last fall and win
ter than in Georgia in two or three
years. There is more work for the
department of justice in that city to-
day than there has been in any south
ern state int twenty-five years. The
Tribune and other New Workers
should clean their own house before
they interfere with that of another
state.

"OvERFILLING SMALL MOUTHS

For long time the Star has declar-
ed that one of the chief reasons why
the cost of education was so high was
that the schools tried to teach too
much that wasn't necessary, shouldn't
be taught, or if taught at all should
be taught at home. We are glad to
find the following confirmation of
much we have written. in the Times
Union:
A very common and highly oppres-
sive comment, frequently made con-
corning people who undertake too
much, and fail. is that they have
"bitten off more than could be chew
ed" and this may be the reason for
some of the disappointment felt by
the long-faced pedagogues and pre-
ceptors who bewail on the housetops
the ignorance in America. and won
der why every child, put through the
regulation course of sprouts, is not
an infant prodigy and every youth a
genius and storehouse of information.
The fault with the young folks, how
ever, comes not so much from the de-
sire to take big bite. but lies chiefly
with the ambitious heads of educa-
tional efforts who stuff the small
mouths to bursting, and then marvel
that mental indigestion is produced.
The American public school sys-
TENS appear more like forced draught
furnaces every day and the wonder is
that such considerable percentage
of children really acquire rudimentary
knowledge while being drilled. coax
ed, cajoled, threatened, hurried and
hauled through the remarkable list of
studies and suggestions in the cur
riculum of the grammar and high
schools.
1t is possible that the much dis
cussed proposition of federalizing
the schools may become a fact-the
tendency to eentralize the govern
ment after the Prussian method is
strong with a certain element, and if
such a thing should happen it might
be possible to simplify the education
al schedule. Then again the govern
iment directors might wish to add to
| the already multitudinous divisions of
school days for young children. There
! is even talk of an eight-hour school
day-although adults are growing
about eight hours. and many have de-
manded reduction to six.
Speaking of the country, rather
than any particular schools. it may be
said that there seems to be a steadily
| increasing effort on the part of educa-
tors to relieve-or deprive-the par
ents of children from all responsible
ity; to set for the children standards
of thought and action, and insofar as
possible make them into stenciled
form, as nearly alike as sheep in a
flock.
With a few added hours and the in
corporation into the primary grades
of electrical engineering. theosophy
political economy, toe-dancing and
thorough-bass, it will only be neces.
sary for mothers to dress their six
year-olds and get them to school by
$3.50 o'clock, and then put them to BED
at 8 p. m, when they return from, the
school house, all other details of Their
raising" being attended to by the
state. As matters now stand parent:
