EDUCATION AND ILLITERACY. Contparleoa with Farelaa Coaatrlea Hot Cestselve to Boasting. , As a people, we of tha United States, say tha Washington Herald, are fond of thinking that with freedom and the liberty of our Institution we present the spectacle of the most thoroughly educated nation In the world. We point with pride to the numerous school houses, not only In the cities, but dotting the landscape throughout' the rural diatricts. And yet a recent In quiry by tha British government as to the quantity of the Illiterate vote In that coun try may well give pause to our self-sufficiency. There were 1,770.000 votes cast In th last general election In Rngland and Wales, and of these only 17.151 vote were cast by Illiterates. In Scotland the Inquiry showed the proportion of Illiterates was as 1.04 to vflO.ftX) and In Ireland 22.000 to 220.000. Soma American wrltera have already taken It upon themselves to admonish Ireland for Its unfortunate showing In Illiteracy, and yet It la highly probable that many of our own state would not make a better show ing. A a matter of fact, we are not at all keeping pace In tha matter of education with some of th European countries that have made education a national function. In Germany, where education la compul sorya It 1 supposed to be In tha United State Illiteracy la practically unknown outside of aom of tha province of Poland. In Franca there are no figures for tha en tire nation available, but among the con scripts to tha French army from Paris there are enough Illiterate to make up on entire company, while In tha province the literate are to the illiterate aa ten to one. Russia, Italy, Spain and Portugal score very heavily In the matter of Illiterate, but in enlightenment of government and Ideals they ara not to be compared. In any sense, to the countries already mentioned. Our own figures. In th face of those ob tainable in Great Britain, Franca' and Ger many, are not encouraging to the national pride. In 1909, according to the census, we had 6,180,000 Illiterates above the age of 10 year, and of these I.2no,7 were whites. Of tha Illiterate 1,224. 226 could neither read nor write. In eleven of the states the adult Illiterate aggregated over 100,000 each, and Georgia led with 1W 247. The new census figures, when they are completed, may make a better showing. There ara two causes, of course, fliat go to make up our large proportion of Illiter acy. On la the large colored Illiterate population of the south; the other the large proportion of Illiterate immigrant, who, founding their home In the new country. often use their children in the struggle to get on, and so keep them away from school This matter of universal schooling through out tha country Is one In which wa are bound to Improve aa tha years go on. HIGH SCHOOL FRATERNITIES. Katloa-Wlde Movement Against the Creek Latter Societies. What may develop Into a nation-wide movement to do away with Greek letter fraternities and sororities In the high schools has been started by a recommenda tlon made to the board of education of New York City by th board of superln tendent favoring the abolition of such secret organisations there. Th recommendation, mad on the basis of the views of school superintendents of twenty-seven of the chief cities of the country, alt except one of whom expressed himself In disapproval of the secret so cieties, charge that such fraternities in high schools are harmful In that they foster an undemocratic spirit, lead to ex cesses and tha formation of vicious habits and to the organisation of cliques to con trol school affair. Above all, fraternities In the high schools art condemned aa encouraging an "un wholesome spirit of secrecy" among adolescents at a time of life when it Is most neceseary that there shall be the frankest and most unreserved confidence between parent and child. It waa pointed out today that If the board of education adopts the resolution against fraternities In th high schools aa It apparently Intends to do, school au thorltles In other cities will follow its lead, as they are wont to do In matters ot school adminlatration and reform. Tha recommendation made by the board ot superintendents and Its committee on high schools, consisting of Edward D. Ste vens, Andrew W. Ed son, and E. B. Shal low, urges tha adoption of this bylaw by the board of education: "No secret society, secret club, or secret organization shall be permitted In any high school. Tha meetings of any atudent society, club, or organization In any high school ahall be open to tha principal or teachers of th school or any school of ficial. Th constitution, bylaws, and mln ua of th proceeding of any such so ciety, club, or organization shall be open to the Inspection of the principal, a duly authorised teacher, or any school official "No pupils of any high achool shall be permitted te Join or obtain membership in any society , club, or organization which make use of the achool name, or which purports to be a school organization, and which does not comply with the above regulations. The name or atyla of any such society, clab. or organization formed or existing in- any high school shall not be expressed In Greek letters or by any secret symbols." MAKISU NKWSPAPER MEN. Behaals af Jearaallssn C'laaeed aa laefal laatltatloa. Henry W alteram write In th Ixutavllle Courier-Journal: 'Theological schools do not turn out ready-made preachers, but yeung men who are trained to become preachers. Medical schools do not turn out physicians, but young men who will In time become physicians. The skilled surgeon Is not the product of a college ot surgery, but the education plus experi ence. The lawyer learns more out of college than he learns In college. Schools of Journalism will not make Journalists, but there Is no reason why they should not be increasingly useful in training young men who have a natural aptitude for newapaper work. Th moat valuable ; equipment they can give the atudent la knowledge of eubjects with which the newspaper maa must deal after graduation from the ranks. Street fights, tires, rail road wrecks, political conventions and the many occurrences and events customarily treated as news are handled differently j by different newspapers. The "cub" re- porter who begin work without opinions of his own as to how the news should he served to the consumer will learn the taste and the methods of the newspaper he serves as readily aa the graduate of a school of Journalism. Hut there are too many bright young men who can write an article and too few possessing a suffi ciently broad education to fit them for higher position and larger usefulness. Writing Is partly a gift and partly an art acquired by conscientious practice. Knowl edge of what to write and what not to write must be gained by conscientious study, but must be continued throughout life." And Now a Ban Has Been Placed Upon the Good, Old Green Tea Attorney General Wickenham Eulei that Here's a Drink that Comes Under Pure Food Law. NEW YORK. Feb. H.-(8peclaJ Telegram.) Good old-fashioned "green tea," If It la artificially colored. Is to be excluded from the United States hereafter and will be come a thing of the past. This will follow a decision Just reached by the board of seven tea expert appointed by the United States government, which has just con cluded a long session In this city. The result has come about through a de cision of Attorney General Wlckersham on a question of law referred to him by the trade. He decided that the pure f'od law require that all teas must be plainly labeled "artificially colored." For some time It was a question In the enforcement of the law whether these Imported teas came under the operations of tha pure food act. This was tha point referred to the attorney general and he decided that they did. Hereafter all such colored teaa must be branded. This decision put It up to the tea trade to determine whether It should continue to sell the tea under this brand, or whether -It should stop dealing in the colored teaa altogether. The question waa referred to a board of tea experts, con sisting of seven men prominently con nected with the tea Importing trade, two of whom are from New York, two from Chicago and one from Boston. Philadelphia and San Francisco. The chairman ot this board Is George Hewlett. A division at once arose In tha trade. Three members were In favor of continuing the Importa tion of the colored teas, to which many people are accustomed, and attaching the labels "artificially colored" as required. The rest of the board were In favor of ex cluding the artificially colored teas alto gether. The advocates of exclusion argued that the selling of artificially colored tea actually a fraud on the public. The dyes are In themselves deleterious, though It Is unlikely that an average tea drinker takea enough of them In hla two or three cups a day to do him any harm. A heavy tea drinker certainly would get harm from them In the long run. The sale of artificially colored teaa In the past ha simply been a concession to the Ignorance of the public, which Imagines it Is getting a fresh and superior tea, sim ply because It Is bright green In color.
