TT STRIKES Us

That the new clock installed by the
State Trust Company is filling one
phase of its mission, thai of "a solace
and inspiration for ALL" was manifest
Tuesday afternoon when the chimes
sounded their message at the hour of
two.
AS the Westminster chimes began to
strike. a demure little lady lodged
into the doorway of the First NatiorNl
Bank and smlingly peered around
the casing of the clock. her face radi-
ating much feeling and suppressed
pleasure. The chimes were giving to
this little lady a message which she
would hold and cherish long after the
liquid notes were still and she had
passed along her way.
Others also paused and listened, and
who can tell what variety of mes
sages were received.

PRE-TEcHNlcAL TRAINING

Coburn Classical Institute has the
perspective of more than a century
Of service and adaptability to the
needs Of its patrons. The latest
manifestation Of purpose to meet
changing conditions Is the addition
OF a pre-technical course to the
Institutes curriculum. The prospec-
tus shows that this departure which
will be entered upon at the Septem-
Der term will offer work that will
include English, Mathematics and
History in common with other
courses; also a study of Economics
and Technical Science with some
attention to shop work.
Manual training in the public
schools has not conclusively proved
its value to some observers. Perhaps
they have expected too much.
Evidently conclusion that the
training which it is possible to give
equips the student with any great
advantage for entering on a trade
after leaving school is hardly war
ranted by the results. Comparison
with. that which Coburn proposes is
not apt, as the latter seeks to give
the student "a clear understanding
Of the problems that will confront
him in life; "a better understand
ing of the problems OF his en-
ployer"; so that che will be better
able to use judgement in his own
business affairs; will know within
close limits the line Of work he
wishes to pursue; have a trade
course half completed; "be Of more
value to an employer on graduation
and therefore can earn more
money; can complete a trade in
one more year of part-time work;
lis fitted for a technical college If
he wishes to 60"

&fw David Cory,

Well, Little Reader, the bunny boy
followed the old crow right into this
story. This old professor bird is
mighty wise, and also very kind and
obliging. He teaches Little Jack
Rabbit many things. And wouldn't
be at all surprised If many of my
little readers have learned much
from this old black bird. who daily
writes in his Wisdom Book interesting
facts about the habits of birds and
animals.
please don't fly so fast" begged
the bunny boy. Il want to talk to
you," and he hoped along faster
than ever, clipperty clip, lipperty
lip, with never a stumble and nary
a slip. Pretty soon Professor Jim
Crow again stopped by the wayside.
The little rabbit was mighty glad, for
the day was warm. Oh, yes, very
warm, and Mr.. Merry Sun was shin
ing down on the dusty road. There
were no shady trees under which to
rest and mischievous Billy Breeze
was raising clouds Of dust as he
romped here and there and every
where.
Dear. Oh DEAR" sighed the little
rabbit, as Professor Jim Crow lighted
on q fence rail, I'm so hot and
dusty" And then looking at the
daisies growing by the wayside, who
seemed to be enjoying themselves
as they danced in the wind, he ad-
ded;
How can they look so cheerful
They grow in such a dusty, hot
place. I'm sure they could have
chosen a better spot"
NO, Stree" came PROFESSOR Jim
Crows answer. This is the kind of
a place they were made for. Daisies
weren't made to grow in the shade"
You must be right" sighed the
little rabbit, hopping his forehead
with the little handkerchief which
Lady Love, his pretty bunny mother,
had slipped into his pocket before
breakfast.
"Of course you know,
Professor Crow,
The reason where
The flowers grow"
'Follow me-" answered the oblig-
ing old feathered friend, and away
he flew over to the Shady Forest.
And after him hoped the little bun
ny, clipperty clip. lipperty lip, and
sometimes a skipperty, skopperty
skip.
"Well. we've gone far enough"

FIRST WE'D BEST CATCH UP

Those who have urged that crime
Is presenting no unusual problems
are keeping quiet right now. 1t is
well, unless they be content to talk
without listeners. Indeed we are
swinging to the other extreme.
Youths are being sentenced to life
terms in prison and paroles and
pardons are matters Of critical dis
cussion. The truth that America is
lamentably failing to support law
and order is disconcerting, not to say
alarming. and no longer may be de-
MED or disregarded
Chief Justice Taft has made an
exception to his rule, not to grant in
terviews and has expressed his
opinions to the United Press re-
specting the crime situation. He Is
by nature an optimist. He says that
he is not greatly alarmed but he
recognizes that there Is much which
should be done. His attitude lends
weight to the need that We bestir
ourselves. This is becoming a con-
viction among thinking people. They
are scrutiniZing more carefully the
effects of the parole system, the
faults in the jury system, the con-
gestion in courts, the lack Of facili-
ties not only for apprehending GRIM
inals but for promptly bringing
- @,,t1 ~ anfnrnfnop
penalties without such procrastina-
ton as recently was illustrated in a
celebrated case in Massachusetts,.
An accompanying need is that Of
clear thinking. We should not let
the idea that prescribing penalties
without providing for the apprehen-
sion of those who are to be penaliZed
and for prompt. incorruptible ad-
ministration will get us anywhere
we wish to go. Making a law so
severe that conviction under 1t be-
comes improbable, tolerating delays
where there is such urgency for
promptness, stinting appropriations
that are needed to secure such
promptness, serve the criminal in
stead Of society. We must not tire
Of educating public sentiment to the
truth that enforcement of law and
discredit Of mawkish sentimentality
are in the interest of the only really
merciful application of the law and
saves human life, now at the mercy
of thugdom in some localities. We
must not elect and support in office
those, who become party to delay.
evasion and worse. who pardon
where pardon should not be had.
We must not forget that criminals
have fair trials when the evidence is
fresh in mind, conditions which
make for justice, whereas delays and
reviewing in the main make for in
justice.
We are not keeping up with the
demands of law and order. In this
respect we are not unlike the peo-
pie of New York, who do not pro-
vide for themselves adequate facili-
ties for getting about and properly
transacting their business; who have
Just completed a huge tunnel under
the Hudson River only to find that
the needs Of communication have in
creased so fast that the congestion

was begun. We better not talk so
much about American hustle and
business sagacity until we have
caught up with our growth in bust
ness or in crime.
