A REAL SERVICE TO JUNEAU.

The statement signed by the teachers of tae Ju- neaa Public Schools and printed in The Empire last Friday should the people of this elty to ao come thinking Without bitterness or personal attack bnt "ont of loyalty to Juneau the set forth s fact that the Juneau school system lis efficient nd comparos very favoraby with systems elsewhere. They say furthet that the discipline is excellent being above the average They contradict rumofs that are rife by affirmatvey declaring that the at titude Of cooperation of the students is commend- fble" and that the fine condition is largely on ac- count Of the complete harmony existing between the teachers the Superintendent, who gives them his unqualified support

 Regarding the facts of matter that has been in controversy in quarters in Juneau for sometime it must be admitted there are better judges than the teachers in the Public Schools themselves Many of them have had many years of school experience and training. and they include teachers whom Juneau knows be competent judges of that of which they speak and who would not misrcpresent condition under any circumstances.
 The spirit tawhich caused the teachers to make the statement is oommendable and that should all good citizens It is spirit which resents Iantd injury the Public Schools and the City of Juneau it is spirit which would protect the most important of all local institutions from the dis organizing effects of disconten suspicion discord omnating from those who may be 'misnformed or uninformod"
 People should be very the facts before they criticize the management of the Public Schools land even then thcy should be careful to see that their criticism is constructive and helpful rather than de- atructive and harmful. Under no circumstances can the echcola be successfully conducted by mob
 The teachers of the Public Schools have done their community and its youth real service in placing the school situation before the people in it's true light

Moscow, Jan. 20.-RussiGn artists
predict triumph for NJ. Tairov and
his Moscow theater group who begin
a foreign tour in Paris in March, the
Deutsches theater in Berlin in April.
in Scandinavia in May. in London
in June and probably in the United
States in October. Tairov and the
members of his company before their
departure received the highest tribute
possible in theatrical circles here. name
~, an official invitation from the city
TO play at the great opera house.
Tairov's art is supreme in plays like
"Salome" and Romeo and Juliet. {"
He concentrates everything upon the
actor whose presentation is carried 10
the ultimate point Of emphasis-a policy
which is bound 10 create controversy.
His stage decorations are unique. He
is regarded here as the foremost ex-
ponent of new world methods in the
ranks Of the Russian actor.
NJ. TairOv makes no secret Of his
belief that the Russian drama under
the forced draught of revolutionary
life has reached a development far
ahead Of that in the west and he
hopes to demonstrate this.
