real bearing on the welfare and future history
of our two countries.
Errors in the teaching of English history in
America and American history in England are
the cause of much misunderstanding. History
should be taught fully and without prejudice TO
promote better understanding between tho two
peoples"
Sir Frederick has thus let some light shine on
one of the most peculiar kinks of the human mind.
In olden times it was a matter of life or death to
disagree with a king. If he said it was raining,
even though the sun shone, his courtiers agreed
with him. II he said black was white his people
agreed, knowing that their eyes might be put out il
they didn't "see" as he SAX. We Taught at such blind
subscryience but some of us have no hesitation in
trying to make others see things as they are not,
If it happens TO fit in with our political or sociolog-
ical or patriotic ideas. Hence we have German his
tories telling German children that Germany was
an abused and invaded country in the World War.
try which belittle Washington and the Revolution
Hence We have school histories which assign n
religious cause to many political actions.
School children believe what they are taught,
not because they "fear the king" but because they
have no better light. Sir Frederick is right when
he deplores unhistoric "histories' as fomenting
trouble between English speaking peoples, but he
might go much further and deplore untruthful @his.
tories' as making trouble for the citizens of h
own, or this country.
The ostrich hides its head in the sand and fan,
cies itself safe. The warped mind alters fact
in histories and believes "A great purpose has
been accomplished. The careless taxpayer and indif-
ferent parent accept any old book to be used in the
schools, and American children of today who are
American citizens of tomorrow sufferi

More Bread, ticwer Books

DETURNING 10 the subject of the dweller on the
III desert island and the literature that would be
most acceptable meanwhile, an irreyerent writer
drops i'll Il little late to say that all the lists OF
books offered were made OF names of books without
which no g~entleman's library is complete, begin
ming, Of course, with the BlDle and Shakespeare,
but the assumptions were, first, that the desert
islander would read those books, though he had
Act them pretty well alone before his sequcstra-
lion, and, second, that he would have much time for
devotion to the perusal Of classics and master.
pieces.
Claiming to speak with the authority of n man
who has lived on a desert island or islands, the
author declares both these assumptions false
that existence in such a place necessitatcs the
giving OF nearly constant attention TO the task OF
getting enough, or more often, something, to cat,
and that little If any time is left for the reading OF
noble and edifying books.
This seems highly plausible except, perhaps, as
regards the very best and most kindly of desert
islands, but the argument Is rather spoiled when
the critic of previous debaters of the question goes
on TO say that what the desert islander would want
and would read-would be books of the sort en-
joyed by the tired business man-books light in
quality and of the kind called exciting" Obvious.
~ the islander would have no moro time for liter
airy ephemerals than for literary permanencies,
and If none for the latter, then none for the former.
With the general tenor of the writer, however,
one-if sufficiently Philistine-can cordially agree.
The list of books suggested, OF the monumental
sort were rather trying, and more than one ought
to have said so.

Reforming From Within

MEMBERS of the legal profession and judges
~ of courts have, upon many occasions in re-
cent years acknowledged that something was amiss
with the profession. Bar and judicial associations
have through Investigations and inquiries sought
to establish the real cause for complaint against
the present functioning of the law and the courts.
forms have from time TO time been made, In which
such men as William II. Taft and Elihu Root
have participated. Reforms and notifications of
practice in so long established a branch Of govern
ment as the judiciary are necessarily of slow
growth.
Now, there has just been formed another asso-
citation of nationwide membership to expedite re.
forms which all agree are necessary to bring back
the judiciary and the legal profession to their
former high place in the esteem of the people.
This association states its objects to be ito pro
mote the Qualification and simplification of the
law and its better adaptation to special needs,
and to secure the better administration of justice,
and to encourage and carry on scholarly and scen.
tific legal work"
General Dawes, former director of the budget,
says the country is tired of rule by organized min.
critics which thwart the will of the unorganizcd
majority.
Bishop Thomas F. Gailor of Tennessee, lays
at the door of the "reformer' much of the disres.
pect of law, of which the country complains, and
says that laws which restrict personal freedom and
make crimes of natural acts cause contempt of
courts.
When the lawyer, the layman and the church.
man all agree that something Is awry in our legal
structure, something probably is! Evidently some
thing is wrongi
One persons view is as good as another's as to
what; but there is a decided undercurrent of be-
lief in many quarters that one of our troubles,
if not the cause of all our / egal stangles, is too
much law; too much adding statute to statute
regulation to regulation, practice to practice, with.
out any clearing out of the dead wood of old and
wornout ideas.
There are many who say that much legal trouble
is caused by lawyers; there is too much reverence
for tradition and precedent, and not enough com
mon sense, and therefore not enough expedition in
law processes.
1t is comforting that lawyers and judges them.
selves take the initiative. That they may have the
vision to call to their aid some common sense
viewpoints from laymen, churchmen and others for
whom the laws are made, is deyoutly to be hoped

Old Streets

Old streets = kindly as old men
Who love a listener.
Their stones are %garru.ous with tales
OF gallant days that were
Their crooked walls lean down to tell
Strange secrets in my ear.
And quaint old doorways beckon me
E~ntreatingly to hear.
They try to te1l who once passed by,
Who dwelt, here. long ago.
They intimately gossip of
Great names ] ought % know.
They speak OF candle light and fires
OF buckled shoes and comets,
They quote me men whose fowins
quilts
Indited hymns INK sonnsts.
But when 7 may not stop to hear.
When all men hurry through,
The old streets sigh like grandfather
Whom mono will listen to.
Most wistfully their windows stare
They seem to shake their walls
And murmur sadly TO themselves
AS somber twilight falls.
-Hilda Morris
