But what does education mean, after
You pass the minimum?
Few Of Us are at liberty to take
it purely on the personal side
Where education means the unfold

The privilege Of self exploitation Is
one that can come only with leisure

iNTENDENT

-Four l0ye birds, grey, and

tive blue patches on their breasts
disappeared yesterday from a
cage at the wonderful aviary
maintained by VIM. W. Demeritt,
superintendent Of lighthouses, at
his home on Whitehead street.
Mr.. Demeritt said this morn
ing that he finds it impossible to
believe that people can become so
blind to the requirements of
honesty as to be guilty of per-
petrating contemplate theft
such as this.
There were four birds in the
cage, one of them white, the
others grey. The grey ones were
stolen and the white ones left in
the cage.
Mr.. Demeritt maintains the
aviary because of his love for the
beautiful and is especially inter-
ested in breeding BIRDS. The loss
has made it necessary to offer a
reward of $40 for information
concerning the loss and which will
lead to the arrest and conviction
of the person or persons respon-
sible for the theft.

The child laLor amendment
seems to be definitely on the way
out in its present form. Three
senators have suggested changes
in its wording and the fact is that
it has been before the States for
thirteen years, which some Con-
stitutional authorities think is SO
long as to inva' idate some of the
earlier notifications. Certainly, the
Supreme Court has intimated that
ratification must be in some rea-
sonable time after the proposal
Senator Vandenbcrg proposed q
changed amendment, which would
make plain that the eiahor for
hire of persons under 16 years
of age only could he limited and
prohibited. Objection has been
made to the term regulate" in
the existing proposal which some
Catholic cleTgymen feared con-
tanned too many implications.
Senator Eorah suggests that the.
age limit be Ia years of age in
stead of IS as in the pending
amendment, which has been rati-
fled by % states and defeated on
38 occasions.

The difference OF opinions on
the prorer child labor amendment
emphasizes a similar trouble
among those who favor correct
ing the Supreme Court situation
by an amendment to the Consti-
tuition. Various Senators are con-
sidering a proposal to amend the
powers of the Supreme Court in
some way but the line of division
that prevents them from getting
together on one proposal continues
to bar effective backing of any
proposal. Even if the amendment
could be agreed upon by oppon-
ents of the Presidents court pro-
posals they realize that it would
be absolutely impossible to get
favorable action without the sup
port of the President. This, it APP
pears, will not be Forthcoming
