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."

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.
