Our public schools should teach pu
pils how to stand and sit; how to walk

correctly; bow to be polite and how to

that enter Into tho every-day Uvea of
everybody, and those are the "accom

book learning." We lollop and slouch,

"Why, ?8 a week Isn't even pin mon

Why, my alimony will not pay i'''

asked. "It's fortunate for me Unit I

Is It really fortunate for her that she
has a father living It's doubtful.
She will very likely go on making a
fool of herself as long as anybody
paya her bills. What she needs is some
effective teaching in tin1 value of

of the world do not need violets at

District Attorney Jerome of New
York may bo somewhat spectacular at
times, but ho usually makes his llcka
count In all of his busy life he never
said anything truer or more pertinent
than the following, taken from a re
cent address beforo the .Merchants'
Protective Association of New York;
The trouble Is that the moral senso
of most people is governed by the
statute books. Thousands of us are
blind on our moral side. Too many dt
not know that they are doing an Im
moral thing until It Is pointed out to
them as a felony on the statute books.
Let us consider an instance. The emi
nent gentlemen who have been con
cerned In the Kqultable Life Assurance
matter have done things which are not
described In section WS of the penal
code as larceny In law, but In a moral
sense I defy you to distinguish some
of the acts of these gentlemen from
tho crimes named In tho statute." This
Is plain speaking, but none too plain.
It Is tho kind of message we need.
We need It as Individuals and we need
It as a nation. We seem to be losing
our sense of moral values when tho
matter of pilling up money Is Involved
Wo do things now which wo would
not have done a few years ago. Tho
craze for wealth at whatever cost
was never so general as now. Mr.
Jcromo Is right In saying that we are
developing a subtler form of crime
than our fathers knew; that in "the
olden days criminals moved along the
line of knockdown and take," and that
"nowadays robbery has a more com
mercial aspect." There Is too much
of a tendency to assume that any
thing can bo done which Is not for
bidden by law. The code of statute
law and the code of morals are made
to coincide. What Is not prohibited by
statute Is right- The men Involved
In the Kqultablo scandal are not alone
In committing crimes which are Just
out of reach of x1k law and theroforc
Justifiable In the common view. Every
community has men of the same type
and every community has set beforo it
moral standards of the same rank
It Is a common fault and tho price
must be paid by a common sacrillco
The penalty can bo escaped only by
too establishment of new standards
of morality, both Individual and civic.
Loyal to His PrioiulH.
John A. Suttor, on whose land gold
was urst discovered In California Ir.
1vS-1S, was always loyal to his frien.la
"During the winter of. 1STi2 Sacra
nionto was a marsh, and drainairt
ditches had just been dug," says
Thomas E. Parish's "Gold Hunters o
California." "One evening Sutter ami
a friend had been Indulging a little too
freely in the cup, nnd they were tnk
lug a stroll beforo retiring for the
night, when the friend Inadvertent'
fell Into one of tho newly dug canals
'I cannot pull you out,' said Suttor io
gretfully as he looked at his less luckj
friend, 'but I can come down nnd sll
with you.' And ho did."

men that they are too fat? It has

NAMES OF WARSHIPS.
Sti jiertl tloti Hlllt Kifc Among Hutlora
Htorr of Clicnspeulce.
The decision to change the name of
tho training ship Chebapeako fo Severn
because of the bad luck which befell
:ho first ship of the former name shows
Mint even In an age of enlightenment
ntpeistltioti survives among seamea
eays the Philadelphia Inquirer. Tin
reason assigned Is that the original
Chesapeake was "unlucky" because ot
the Ill-fortune that befell her Home
years before the breaking out of th
second war with flreat Hrltaln and the
lowering of her Hag to the Shannon
during tlutf. war.
Whllo we have no desire to question
the motive In changing tho name, we
think it well to remember that, ttl
Uiough the old frigate struck hor col
ors twice, there was no dishonor It
either case. In the first instance tin
UKsatilt upon the Chesapeake was un
warranted and brought the country tc
the verge of a war that might novel
have occurred but for that incident
The Chesapeake was alleged to have
on her four desertors from the British
navy, and the licopnrd, In our own
waters, followed her and wantonlj
"blew her up," hi snllor's language,
and took off the men forcibly. Impress
ment wns the evil that brought on
the war, unci this was the most arro
gant exercise of the alleged, right II
turned out that thero was only one
man who could bo claimed by anj
stretch of technicalities to be a Briton
There Is no disgrace In that event, foi
the American commander was not pro
wired to light and had no Idea that hi
would be attacked. Tie was court
tnartlalcd more lo appease public nen
timent than for any other cause.
It la agreed on all sides that the
fight between the Chesapeake and
Shannon was au unequal combat, dm
to ono of those accidents which ee
often decide events. At the opening
of the fight the rudder of the Chesa
pcake was damaged so that she be
came helpless, most of her olllcort
were killed and wounded, and tho end
war, never even by tho British claimed
to be anything to our discredit. Law
rence was bold antl too rash, and wat
not provided with a properly trained
crew, lie paid the penalty for hh
rashness and his dying words, "Don't
give up tho ship," have been wortt
