some rs years ago the most promis-

are estimated to contain 500,000,000
tons. or about one-quarter Of the
total supply supposed to exist, as far
as is known in all Spitzbergen.
Much of the Spitzbergen coal is
of a porous kind, which incidentally
is the reason why a fire which

The glowing description of mine
workers standing as the forlorn
hope between civilization and the
rigors of the cold, as given by
President Lewis of the United
Mine Workers, may excite some
recollections in the public mind.
One is that there are so many of
these, who are anxious to be
martyrs in the cause Of providing
fuel, that there is no dearth Of labor
in the mines. Another Is that there
is not enough to keep them all busy
the year round and consequently
they insist upon getting pay enough
during the part time they work, SO
they may live for the entire year, a
laudable undertaking to be sure,
but rot one calling for tears on the
part Of thece who pay the bills. The
life Of a coal miner has not appealed
to us even on whole pay for part
time, but there seems 10 be more
than a plenty to whom 1t does ap-
peal to such an extent that they
make no effort to get a job at some
thing else, which may keep them
busy the year round. AS matter
of fact, If people have in storage any
sympathy for either the miners OF
the mine operators they have more
emotion than they have sense.

A MODEST SCIENTIST.

I'VE must learn to get away from
our assertiveness and dogmatism,
whether scientific or theological. I
see overassertiveness from scientists
in connection with such things az
the late evolution trial, and l see on
the other side assertiveness on sub
jects about which l know nobody
knows anything
This impresses US as something,
which needed to be said. It has
been said by one regarded as a
competent person, DR.. r. A. Millikan,
a winner OF the Noble prize and a
physicist of international reputation
While letting US know that he is on
the side Of evolution be admonishes
US that he does not expect that any
scientist will be able absolutely to
prove 1t. In short Doctor Millikan
appears TO be one of the learned
persons who know enough to make
them modest II they didn't happen
to be born that way. He, probably
II called upon to teach school, would
not tell the children that man and
monkey surely are cousins, but
might be: that this need reflect nc
discredit upon either party to such
relationship. Probably, too, he
would explain az best he might tc
the school some Of the leading
scientific ideas which are believed
70 rest upon good foundations, but
would be careful not to teach as
established fact that about which
SOUND reasons for doubt may exist
Scientific dosmatists and other
varieties Of dogmatists need to &c

ma the regulations should not for

MAINE,a ACADEMIES

OF the educational work Of Names
academies in the past may ana
should be said: well done" The In
struction which the youth Of Maine
have there received has been sane
and sound, and none may estimate
the full measure Of its contribution
to the welfare Of the State. In just
what ways these schools may con-
tinue to render splendid educational
service, may be question about
which opinions may differ in some
narticI1lars. Nevertheless 1t is
gratifying that those who believe the
DAYS of usefulness of the old aca-
denies are by no means past are
putting their conclusion to the test
In a modest way-the resources or
these institutions, which have not
been operated for financial gain, DO
not permit extravagance-an er-
fort is being made to remind the
public of advantages which they are
ca pable of offering. They supplied
over a long period in this State the
only means for many to acquire the
educational steps between the COM
mon grade schools and the colleges.
We believe there is yet work OF that
kind to be done; that none are bet
ter fitted to do this than are the
time tried academies.
There are yet communities that
feel unable to support high schools
and the youth of those communities,
If they would become properly
schooled must either go to these
academies or to the neighboring
cities. Here, too, may be found
convenience by students whose
homes have been broken up, and by
those, who having been out OF
school for several years and are re-
luctant to return to the high school
These can find in the academy the
instruction they seek and should
have. Then there are pupils. who
miss training in regularity at home
in the city high school, where
diversions interfere with this, and
these may find the essential In
the academy life. with wholesome
training, evening study hours and
competent supervision. In the past
these schools have each been. sur
rounded by an atmosphere more
distinctive, more contributory to
individuaIism than the usual high
school affords, characteristics and
an atmosphere which have en-
riched educational life and are cap
able Of yet doing so. Their effort to
meet changing conditions merits ap-
prevail and support.
