, Ocularly of the high school. Referring
, the building, he said tnat It Is second
i $ none In the United States and ona of
I e best he has aver seen.
iThe professor took the position that tha
Jraat object in teaching Is not so much
aa follow the old rules laid down in tha
ixt books, but to cause and Instruct the
vrtpila to think for themselves and that
tea teacher Is sa aid In drawing out tha
wool of ths pupil and helping to raise

- Old Idea Haa Passed Away.
Tha time has passed when years are
pent compelling pupils to commit to
Jnemory long psssages and lessons, ths
Idea now being to teach tha facta, thla
aelnf aa age when everything except
Sects are Ignored; It la an aga of great
things when tha masters of Ilia world
are la tha school rooms and when tha
people are tha worshippers of success.
- Professor Hsrt told of tha time when
J.e was a student In college and then It
wsa necessary that a complete knowl
edge of Greek ha acquired and only a
few years prior to that It wsa Imperative
that a auu. with a eompleteed education
ahoald have a thorough understanding
f Hebrew, especially It he expected to
angag In toe ministerial calling. Now
Hebrew baa been relegated, Greek la
following and even Latin Is not consid
ered absolutely necessary In many of ths
colleges.
Practicability la on of tha things
ought In educational, and also In busi
ness matters, contended tha speaker. It
la an age of centralisation and the world
ki looking for men who do things. Even
tha political parties, ha added, want men
wka will make tha dirt fly. They want
ansa who can and will bring about prac
tical results and aa proof of Ibis he
pointed ta tha political situation In New
York, where both of the parties, have
tha state catalogued accordirg to tha
snast approved card system, showing tha
party affiliation of every voter and how
they ahoutd sot la event they cling to
parly lines.
a all lines at trsds tha business man
ha learned the necessity of securing
talent and of gathering In men who can
produce reeulta Evsn the bustassa prin
ciples have been carried Into religion,
eoatlaued tha speaker, and tha work of
leasing after the oscular affairs of the
church Is turned over to ths layman, men
1 wsjp have, aa a rule, been successful In
their own business mailers. Then, too,
tha onlversltlss that are most successful
bare placed upon their staffs .a corps of
business agents.
To fill the many places of Importance,
cuatended Prof. Hart, the schools of to
dag are sduoatlng the men who arc to fill
llif Important places that will be open
In the future, and for these places prac
tical mea will be needed. This Idea of
practical teaching ta spreading and In
stead of Instructing snd compelling tha
memorising of the multiplication table
ant tha catechism, tha schools are broad-
antrg and teaching practical things.
Prof. Hart maintained that much good
cenv from memorising, but looked upon
to school Ufa of a child as being too
short to follow tha old method of com
nutting ta memory all the tables la ths
arithmetic, the rules of grammar and
everything found la tha books. "Even
parsing.' ha added, "la a lost art.'
However, he Insisted that there should
be annul training, but Insisted that It
should sot be pushed ta an unreasonable
extent. But with good mental training,
teachers might work out miracles, and la
thai connection be related an Instance

Notwithstanding the repeated ruroora
of the consummation of the sale of the
SllO.m bond Issue to Oscar Allen of
Omaha, It now appears sa If the last
hope of the sslo haa gone glimmering.
The most recent objection to tha pur
chase of ths bonds waa mace yesterday
by Attorney Page of Omaha, who In
formed City Clerk Perry Wheeler that
his client would probably have to refuse
to accept the bonds In view of the fact
that there seemed to be an overissue in
the sum nsraed.
The hitch wsa traced back to IMC, when
from a number of bonds composed of
financial odda and ends, an Issue of
IllO.SSs wsa formed and floated. At the
time It Is said thera waa approximately
11,900 In cash which the city need not
have taken into the Issue. This tl,W, or
thereabouts, haa now Increased to a
sum said to be equal to something In the
neighborhood of U.aO.
It would sppear. therefore, that In the
present Issue of 1110.81 Is a call for an
overtssus. The real amount. It la said.
should not have exceeded tlW.OOO In all.
There Is considerable criticism of the
management that has put ths city In the
present predicament.
Yesterdsy evening Mayor Hocldr In
structed City Clerk Wheeler to notify tha
Allen attorney that an Immediate decision
aa to whether bo would accept the bonds
waa necessary In Justice to other com
panies who have made offers to the
mayor.
It has been felt for some time that Allen
was nut anxious tu take tha bonds. At
torney Psge In bis statement to the city
officials yestsrday declared that ha bad
overlooked fifteen or alxteea minor ob
jections to tha bonds, but was Inclined to
balk at tha new development.
At tha time Allen agreed to purchas
the bond It waa agreed that a time limit
of ten day waa to be given tor the
consideration of ths bond histories. It
haa now sxtsnded Into months and tha
city Is paying Interest oa money loaned
by the banks to carry ths city over the
financial difficulties entailed by ths ma
turing of ths old Issue.
Bsld a prominent official yesterday:
"It la Just a case of more politics than
business In tha city government. Why
doea It happen that outsiders must Inform
the city of things that It officials should
hsvs known. Haa tha city so much
money that It la aot able to account for
tha KM0 that Is said to havs been draw
ing Interest for so long? And If wa have
that much money, why wsa tha council
told to float an Issu of U10.S), Instead
of I107.0W?" .

Word haa been received by Principal
Frank Cummlnga of ths South Omaha
High school that ths seventh annual free
competitive honor scholarship In Swarth

K. Orchard, a member of the 1911 class.
Tha honor la tha first of Its kind that

school suthorltlea are especially delighted
over the fact that the award to youus
Orchard waa mads unanimously at
meeting of the Westsrn bwsrtbmore club
held In Chicago May 1.
The award of tha scholarship Is based
upon tha general all-round excellence of
tha applicant, who must be a ssnlor from
an accredited high school of tha United
Slatea. Ths activities of ths Western
Swarthmora olub are confined to that
part of tha country lying west of ths

la equivalent to teuo la aroney, covers all

This Is what member . R. Leigh and a

Ba ForMddea.
ATLANTIC CTTT. N. J.. May 4.
Frsnklln MacVeagh. secretary of tha
treasury, tonight expressed tha belief
that tha house banking and currency
committee Investigating the money trust
would find an evolution In financial af
fairs tending towards a concentration
of larger power In the bands of a few
institutions or even of a few men.
Speaking here before the New Jersey
Banker' association, the secretary gave
his approval to the Inquiry launched by
tha house. A closer relation of finan
cial force, be declared, had resulted In
a huge measure from the panic of 1307.
when largev Interests entered upon a
policy of co-operation for self-protection
made necessary by the country's Inade
quate money system.
Objects ta One Feat ere.
While the secretary favored the money
trust Inquiry aa a necessary atep In re
forming the banking and currency system
of the United States, be deplored the
fact that congress waa not contemplat
ing legislation on the basis of the plana
of the national monetary commission,
the general features of thla plan received
Mr. MacVesgh'a approval, but he criti
cised the fact that It did not forbid ab
solutely the ownership of national bank
stock by another national bank.
He declared that he had been recently
told that some of the "strong men" of
New York felt that any more monetary
legislation as wholly unnecessary, "be
cause they could themselves handle all
The secretary thought the Inquiry could
be performed adequately within a com
paratively short time.
The national monetary commission, he
said, had refused to deal with the ques
tion of the concentration of money power
and the house Inquiry was unavoidable.
Declaring that the monetary commis
sion's report recognised the right of a
national bank to own stock In another
national bank, tha secretary said: V
"It limits that ownership to si per
cent If the right of representation In the
National Reserve association Is not to
be Impaired, but we all know that It
might as well not limit It at all aa
limit It to per cent for in moat of the
corporations that are controlled It does
not in practice require actual ownership
of even 40 "per cent of the stock to be
actually Invested In the controlling
hands."
The treatment of this feature by the
commission Mr. MacVeagh regarded aa a
"grave and radical mistake."

HERE'S a question of big im
portance to the car owner
The Resilience of his tires.
True, mileage is of prime importance.
But mere mileage without the life and
vim of pure rubber, properly compounded,
means little.
Many a man buys a costly automobile and forgets that the first essential
in its protection is tires that will not only bear it op but that will have the
proper "give" to absorb the shocks save racking and injury to the' machinery.
Firestone tires are made to stand the strain.
. They not only offer the "Most Miles per Dollar of Cost" but they have a
wonderful, unequalled resilience because of the unique composition of pure
Up-River Fine Fara rubber.

TIRES
The tread of Firestone tires combines lightness with strerarth
and buoyancy, which means protection for the car under the
hardest road conditions, with tires pumped to capacity. -
We use selected long fibre combed Sea Island cotton for
oar fabric woven to withstand a strain of 32S pounds to the
square inch.
But it is in the making the saturation of the fabric- the
building the curing snd curing again to make th whole
tire one inseparable piece that the superior quality of Fire
stone construction proves itself most.
Careful supervision attends every detail of Firestone manu
facture. The tires are inspected over and over again.
True. Firestone tires cost little more than ordinary tires.
They are richly worth it and earn their additional cost over
and over again in actual mileage and in car protection,
Ba sure to specify Firestone Smooth Tread or Noo-Siid
Tires.
