Misinterpretation of a sentence in an editorial ex pression, intended for a pleasantry, led to a misun derstanding", which has happily been cleared away, permitting, however, emphasis on the mission of teaching as applied when success is secured. The derivation of the word "education," to draw out, indicates its purpose, that is to draw out the mind of the student, to expand it, to make it flexible and receptive, and give it the faculty of grasping and retaining the knowledge imparted, in so many ways. In the beginning, before books were plenti ful and education common, the student frequented the presence of the learned, in the groves, the por ticoes! the grottoes, and information was imparted by lectures, disquisitions, conversations, or in other forms. These, .however, were supplemented by in dependent inquiries on part of the pupil, and fre quently discoveries of great importance 'resulted; those who studied were also taught to think, the one being a part of and complementary to the other. Modern methods lack' both the direction and the effect of the ancient, to some degree, at least From the primary grades on through to the very end, the seeker for knowledge is plunged into a wilderness of words, of written thoughts, of ideas arbitrarily ex pressed in words, and only too often absorbs these . with merely the effort to retain them in memory and no - conscious purpose of analyzing or discovering what they really mean. Conning a text book by rote falls short of education in its true sense. To teach the boy or girl to study, they must also be taught to think. Opening up the mind, leading it on through the roseate paths of learning, for these paths actually do glow with the most beautiful foliage known, the teacher is rewarded only when the pupil gets the joy that comes with understanding, and understanding comes only aa thought discloses the loveliness of the way along which the intellectual excursion leadf. ' : , . Systematic study, then, is the true secret of edu cation, and the method that leads the boy or girl to think is the one that will bring the desired result and ability to advocate any side of question, de bating also appears to be an exercise in facing both ways. When these boys enter business or public life, Jet us hope they will learn that conviction is neces sary to anything but the most hollow sort of success. Iowa's Blue Sky Neola. !., June 14.

THE HUMAN SIDE OF HISTORY. Customs change with the years, and to attempt to impose the standards of today on the manner of life in past centuries is a childish and ignorant mis take. What Senator Watson of Georgia hoped to prove by hia statement that George Washington' traded a slave for a barrel of West Indian rum no one can say. Perhaps he had no further aim than to petrify public attention. Certainly no grown man would endeavor to main tain that merely because George Washington did a jThey poMibiy may have been "lame certain thing which was considered proper in his day a repetition of that deed would be justified in the present age. Our first president drank his coffee out of a saucer, and in his mansion at Mount Ver non had not even the conveniences requisite to a modern tenement, but that proves nothing except that life has changed. It is due to a recognition of this fact, as much as to any desire to conceal the weaknesses of our national heroes that a strongly supported movement for the censorship of history text books is being car ried on. A committee of high school, teachers in New York has recommended that several school books be rewritten, replacing such facts ss that Sam Adams was a smuggler with the hallowed myths of oar fath ers. In Current History magazine W. L Lincoln Adams, president of the Sons of the American Revo lution, makes a plea for a rigid censorship of what the children are taught concerning the acts and mo tives of American historical characters. This, too, is a mistaken attitude, for in the course of time most Americans stumble on unflattering aspects of history in some such way as the senator from Georgia presents them, without interpretation, and themselves almost innocent of the notion that these great 'men were human, after all, and not divine. In the interests of advancing civilization, neither patriotism nor institutions should be risked on a foundation that is hidden or false. It is a great truth to be remembered that the right of one age may be come the privilege of another and the wrong of the next. PICTURES FROM MARS. Thomas A. Edison is no astronomer, but he expresses the belief that denizens of some other planet are tryirfg to communicate with the earth. He even predicts that interstellar wirelessing will be come an accomplished thing within a few years. His suggestion is that stations for catching such celestial messages be erected over large deposits of iron ore, as in Michigan, on account of their attraction for electrical currents. Steinmetz, another famous elec trical genius, states that a billion dollars would be required to establish such a plant. , ' It is assumed that if Mars or any other planet be inhabited its people have some form of language. The human mind can not conceive of a race without a means of communication similar to our own. How to make it possible to understand each other im mediately becomes a problem. If these celestial neighbors could convey simple geometric figures by radio, a language could be built up which both planets would understand. The in strument suggested by one scientist would resemble the telautograph which is sometimes used here, a message being sent by an electric pen and received by another. ' Thus, if the Martians sent through space the pic ture of a man and followed it with a symbol indicat ing their word, or an interplanetary code for this, a common basis would have been approached, to be in creased by other simple pictures. This is assuming that the form of life on Mars resembles our own and that what ia a man here is a man there. The com plications increase with the fullness of consideration. If Mr. Edison expects communication to be estab lished with Mars he probably will have to undertake the job himself. "AS THE TWIQ IS BENT." The enthusiasms of childhood often amuse their less volatile elders. It is so easy to ridicule those dreams and interests that many parents dampen and submerge the natural tendencies of their boys and girls by the mistaken use of humor. A turtle in the bath tub is not a pleasant thing, and the odd collections of bits of rock, scraps of wire and other sorts of junk may prove a vexation. Curious ideas spring from those nimble young brains, but such early leanings may develop in time into special ability of a high order. . Camilla Flammarion, the celebrated French astronomer, on his eightieth birthday anniversary, traced his interest in that science back to an incident when he was only 5 years old. This was the reflec v tion of a solar eclipse in a pail of water in the yard of his father's home.' The various phases of the eclipse so deeply impressed him as to mold his whole career. , FIRM BELIEF A NEED OF THE TIME. All primed to uphold the cancellation of war debts, the debating team of New York university ar rived in Oxford for a series of forensic contests with several British schools. Finding no one there prepared to speak against cancellation with any con viction, the Americans agreed to switch to the neg ative of the proposition, "European debts to Amer ica are the greatest obstacle to a peaceful world set tlement", This willingness to argue on either side of a ques tion is publicly commended as good sportsmanship. Yet sorely it ia not over-critcal to inquire how it is possible for these college orators to speak "with conviction'' on both aides of such a momentous ques tion. ,The-nswer may be given that debating it a process of .intellectual gymnastics. V It is that, of course, but when young men profess a willingness " WHY GIRLS GO WRONG." Another investigator, a policewoman of Pitts burgh, gives as from the depth of her experience the statement that most girls go wrong because of re pression at home. She argues they are "starving for pleasure." She says: Many girls of 18 or 17 leave home and are forced to find work because there is not enough money at home to maintain the family. Sometime there are several younger brothers and sisters for whose food and clothing her earnings must go. The girl naturally becomes despondent. She sees no future ahead. She wants her money for the nice clothes she sees other girls wearing. Fre quently she runs away. If the bureau finds her before she has Joined the great army of those of . older occupation the bureau detective , finds her self facing a difficult problem. What can you say to a girl of 18 who never has been allowed to spend a cent of the money she earned upon herself. Usually she has not been ill treated at home. But she has no pretty clothes, and her parents and family need the little money she has been able to earn. It'a pretty hard on the girl, isn't it? The answer to that is simple. Such a girl should be plainly told of the danger that lies ahead for her; but above all, provision should be made for her to the end that she may have some of the simple pleas ures for which she is starving; good food and decent surroundings for her hours that are free from toil. Supply this, and the rest will be taken care of with out difficulty. Certain false ideals in our civilization must, be thrown down utterly before the greater work can be accomplished. One of these ideals is that luxury means happiness. A standard that will insist on the preservation of the home circle, that will provide a fair outlook on life," and not befog the mental vision of the boy or girl with distorted images of delights that really are Dead Sea fruits, is needed. . Such a standard calls for a considerable revision of the present day social program, but it is not impossible of accomplishment "The oldest profession" has never lacked recruits, and maybe never will, but the way called Straight ought to be made a little easier. BEAUTY IN OLD AGE. Curiosity longs for a picture of the queen of beauty lately crowned in Liege. She is 80 years old, the cable says. The wonder is, not that this white-haired grand mother is beautiful, but that her charm should find public recognition. Some of the finest faces are those of old women. In them is character; understanding and sympathy that lights up the countenance with a gentle animation. In the most beautiful there may also be found a trace of sorrow and suffering that imparts a graceful composure which serves partly to conceal it Youthful beauty has not these wrinkles. Nor has it the significance of the beauty that bespeaks a well spent life. Too often it is only a mask often a painted one that conceals vital deficiencies of character or intellect Untried by time and untested by life, the beauty of youth has about it a certain hollowness. So much of it is fleeting chance. Those Belgians set a new fashion in crowning the aged Madame Perard, and gave the world something to think about - WOMAN TO THE RESCUE. "We have buried our party in a beer keg!" Mrs. Peter Olesen exclaimed nt San Francisco when the democratic national convention nominated James M. Cox for president Her speech seconding the nomi nation of William G. McAdoo had been one of the features of that meeting. Well, Mrs. Olesen now has won the nomination for senator from Minnesota. Once more a woman devotes herself to the business of rescuing an inebriate. It is to be doubted, however, if the titular head of the party welcomes her good intentions. Democratic star gazers are not getting all the satisfaction they anticipated out of the defeat of Porter J. McCumber. Lynn J. Frazier is also a re publican. Nebraska apples and watermelons are coming in for some attention, if only to prove that the state produces something else than corn and hogs. Safeness and sanity control generally in Fourth of July observance, and yet American institutions appear to thrive. The noise from The Hague is nothing like that which came from Genoa, which may be a good sign. The president also agrees that the old front porch is a good place for a vacation. ' : ' " . July contains five pay days, to be enjoyed by those not 'out on strike. -. ' V."- Felt the effect of the freight cut yet? din k." polttli'lnne out of a Job.

Home years ago a representative of a larse going creamery concern buttonholed me for an hour, trying to noil me some of their watered stork, lie showed me letter from people I knew acknowledging tha re ceipt of SI per cent Interest on their Investment. There certainly must,, have been big profits In the craum cry burlnea or they could not have i paid that interest on inflated hock. He snld the shares were getting too a1uable, so the company was es- ' rnndlng: was going to build several more creameries; was going to re organise and Inane new stock, eome thlng like 1,000,000 shares. Then 1 1 thought of that bank cU'rk in New York who labored for 20 years and Invented nil his savings In Manhattan . stock which paid him S per cent In- t terest and was persuaded ry a stoca broker to exchange his Manhattan I for Consolidated stock. You recall i this went Into the receiver's hand and the hig financiers bought It, and the small investor hnd to accept what was offered him. This man got just 16 per cent of his money bark.

He was selling nitrate stock for some company near Antloch. He expatiated upon the great value of the stock and showed numerous letters In which parties declared they had received 85 per cent on their investment. "My dear ir t aaid. "if vour company la re sponsible and dependable you need rot come out to small xowns 10 sen thla atock. I can direct you, in rtmahi. to where you can sell 6,000, 000 shares if It Is paying even 10 ner cent." That very statement queered me, and I told him I would not trade my bonds for all the stock the, com Dan v had Issued. Just 30 inv after this' incident the com pany went into a receiver's hands hroke. Subseauently all h nmnortv wa destroyed by fire, He knew the company was on the verge of bankruptcy and he was out to unload the worthless stock on In nocent investors.

And right nere is wnere the trick Is perpetrated. They used up all the funds; then quit for a brief .naii than nnnlicd for a receiver. The property was ordered sold and the drillers rot the property. We, the suckers, paid for the prospecting and the drillers got the property. See the point? Or do you need a telescope to see it? Then, about the conclusion of tne war, there blew into town two ele nntltf dressed gentlemen. They drove a Ford sedan, roomed at our best hotel and demanded the best fho hnntflrv pould Drovlde.- wny noi, as long as some sucker Is paying e tt? They were very fastidious In their tastes. One was a graduate of Dartmouth and the other of Yale. Th npjvmpnr nf a small fee to the secretary of state secured the requi site articles of Incorporation and the authority to collect a million dollars from the people without tne require ment of a bond or security. Thev rented several rooms In Council Bluffs and furnished same. Then thev Installed a secretary to hnnrtln tha corresaottt-ence and treasurer to handle the cash. Then thesa twn nnritelv gentlemen started out. Thev ODerated through the hnnku whose assistance and co-op erattnn thev solicited. Most of the country banks went into it. Their object, as they explained, was to es tablish a ereat central bank In Coun cil Bluffs, ostensibly to handle first mortgages on farms. All the banks interested were going to turn over their mortgage business to them ana it would be handled in the head in stitution. Some of the banks In Council Bluffs had hesitated at first, they said, but then were struggling to get in line. When this great cen- tral bank gets under full swing, witn Its mighty assets and influences back of it, the Omaha banks will have to come there for assistance, so they said. They must have mobilized J60.000 or 870,000 worth of bonds in this immediate section. You see. they didn't want cash. They wanted our bonds. They got some of mine tut not all. Some men let loose of ail thev had. $5,000 to $10,000, After they had raked In all the ducats they could they looked around for the goats, and they had no. trouble finding them in CouncH Bluffs. The goats are the fellows who drink the skimmed milk whilst the astute promoters get the cream. There were four men In this cele brated Institution. One appointed himself as secretary, another as treasurer, etc. When the new aggre gation stepped Into office they found the pastures bleak and barren. The financial crash was on, moneys tightened and the notes could not be sold. The fellows who got the cream scattered like autumn leaves before a wintry blast No one knew from whence they came or whither thay hnd flown. In fact, no one knows today. I went down upon one occasion Just to see what I had fallen into. I was ushered into a rear room, where I was met by a huge, pompous indi vidual that resembled the (now de ceased) king of Abyssinia. He was a voluble and forceful talker, and when he smiled his prodigious mouth stretched from ear to ear. A diamond sparkled on his right hand and he looked the image of pros perity. He dwelt. upon our great fortune In getting in on the ground floor and predicted that the sharer would soon advance to $100, or pos slbljr $125. I expressed my doubts Soon after that I received a Ion; printed circular from the company , stating, that the enormous business i Jin eight Justified advancing the price of khares to livo per alia re. In m letter to the iiiiupttiiy I quoted the glmei vutioiieif Jula Li.mlls, In the trial of the I'liri-Moior company, In v htch he emphttaued that any com pany arbitrarily advancing the price of khares without having declared dividends Is prima facie evidence of rrsua. A few dnys after they received my letter a couple of portly, affable gen lleruen pranced Into my office (these fellow always travel in pairs), wear' lug an II In in I iim 1 1 iiar am I le, which, prt-Niiuie, they thouunt would hypno tle lite. Tliey undoubtedly were sent to quiet my anxiety. These fellows pro pimeil t lint I buy 12,000 more atock : that they could still get them at 175 per share. They didn't want any money, Juat my note, and with this they could secure tha stock, and then they would agree to sell this stock for 1100 per share, I to get 4A per cent am! they 80 per cent of tl-.e profits. The scheme was too transparent even for comment. Treacher, priests, school teachers. bankers ami doctors, aa wen farmers ami niercUants, had been raked Into (he net. The mortgage company has not been In the re celver's hands a year. The whole business ought to be settled up In 10 days. If all the stockholders are called to hendnuurters a settlement just to all, could be effected, I am1 sure. The receiver knows the total expense and receipts. He knows how much each one has paid In on their respective shares. Now, determine the pro rata expense to each man and the fellow who is delinquent let him settle and get through with this abominable fiasco. Learn your lea son, and the next stock promoter that comes sround give him a recep tion that will make him think he is in purgatory. J. H. LOWRET. M.

The End of Race Migrations. II. P. ralrchlld In tha Tala Rtvttw. The book of race migrations must be closed forever. It Is for an In formed and sensible public opinion to put a stop to permitted invasions. The peace of the world cannot be assured until some effective check Is placed upon wars for land or the products of land; the prosperity of the world cannot be assured until there Is a general denial of the right of any nation with an excessive in crease of population to seek relief by sending Its surplus nationals abroad. We have lately heard a good deal about the right of self tetermlnatlon of peoples. It is time to assert the duty of self-determina tion. Each nation must be compelled to work Its own population problems without threatening the well-being I of other nations that re more In telligent or more self-controlled, If the objection be raised lliat such a step should be postponed until a more nearly equal division of ad. vantages has bean eetabllthed amonc the nations of the world, the answer ia rurnisned by Secretary Hughes' attitude on disarmament, Kvery world-wide reform muat start at some time, and the best time Is now. j nia is particularly true In popula tion queatlons. Moreover, for the United States, the suggested squall satlon would Inevitably mean a lev ellng downwards. The more the nations of the west are brought to the present situation of such coun tries aa China and India, the gloom ier becomes the outlook for ths future, and the less possible becomes any satisfactory and permanent so lution. "Twenty Dollars Ball." From th San Franclare Chronicle. A msn Is under arrest In this city for speeding and Incidentally for In juring a woman. He Is held pending the outcome of the Injuries which he Inflicted and meanwhile he Is at large on "twenty dollars hall." That Is the estimate which some of our courts place on human life. We know nothing of the circumstances of this case except the current re ports, but the fact that the man was arrested at all Is evidence that In the opinion of the arresting officer he was a criminal, whose misdeeds had put a human life in great Jeopardy. The crime if there was any crime was committed when the men drove at unlawful speed. Thousands of such crimes are committed every day in the year and the criminals go their way unmolested If nobody is nurt. The greatest danger to the repub lic lies In the general habit of defy ing our laws, for which the courts of the country are almost wholly responsible. Why should one obey the law if nothing will happen to him if he does not? JaII sentences for speeding would quickly lead to the habit of safe driving. Points Where Science Falls.
