The junior. High School r, , A '- Reorganization of education under the junior high school plan or something similar is definitely under way, according to Prof. T. H. Briggs, whose reView of secondary education has just been issued by the U. S.. Bureau of Education. The junior high school has been defined "as an organization of grades 7 and 8 or 7 to 9 to provide means for individual differences, especially by an earlier introduction of prevocational work and of subjects usually taught in the high school." ... There are now 57 cities in the United States where junior high schools are organized in unmistakable form. "One advantage claimed for the junior high school," declares Dr. Briggs, "is that it groups children so that subjects seldom taught in-"the grammar grades may be introduced, thereby giving each pupil a more intelligent understanding

of the work of the world, of the possibilities in the subject and in the -pupil, himself . - - -V .'The junior high school also makes easier the transition of pupils to the high school. That the change between the elementary, and the high school should be so sharp permits no justification. To bridge this gap 1y earlier ; introduction to high-school, subjects and methods of -.teaching has greatly; improved results, it is claimed. : ; v : "The junior high school- has furthermore greatly decreased elimination of pupils from school. This " elimination : af ter the seventh, eighth and "ninth grades has been one of the greatest reproaches ""to; pur educational system. Any plan that promises to retain children ; in school beyond these grades is worthy; of the most careful consideration. - 'The statistics given" by Dr. Briggs show that a much larger per cent of students enter high school where junior high schools exist than before they were organized.' ... :. .... That the junior high school furnishes an opportunity for various needed reforms in instruction is the final claim of the new movement, ac cording to Dr. Briggs. He points out that in the junior high school a course of study based on the newer . principles of psychology," sociology, and economics, various provisions for individual differences, and especially an improved method of teaching, can now be introduced. Los Angeles (Cal.) High School; Butte (Mont.) High School; Wisconsin High School, Madison, Wis. ; and Horace Mann School, New York-City are nited as successfully" organized junior high schools, "Los Angeles having far outstripped all other cities in developing them.":

NEW MARINE LEAGUE TO AROUSE AMERICA

f : ' - - V C ' ;

James &. &rgan To "arouse the nation to the necessity of American martime development" the National Marine League is being organized by James B. Forgan, president of the First National Bank of Chicago, it is announced. Representative business men of the middle west have been enlisted and are seeking to enroll the leaders of the biggest commercial enterprises in the country. Plans have been made to raise a campaign fund of $125,000. It is proposed that the central Federal Reserve Banking District be represented by 150 members, each of whom has been asked to subscribe $250. Branch leagues are to be organized in each of the twelve Federal Banking Districts. HISTORIC FLAGS WILL BE SHOWN AT ENCAMPMENT

WASHINGTON, A UK. 25. For the first time in the nation's history Uncle Sam has consented to relinquish control, temporarily, of one- of his greatest treasures the Washington collectlonof historic flags of the repuhlic. Many attempts have been made to hrivrnw tho armv anil riaw- flo-r intl.

in charge of the forty-ninth annual encampment oud the fiftieth anniversary of the grand review of theGrand Army of the Republic, which will be held In this city September 27-October 2, to

be first to receive this privilege. As famous flag collections go, the American exhibit is not extraordinarily large, but Uncle Sam demonstrates his love and pride by placing a cash valuation of $15,000 on the collection. Several of the more famous of the battle flags, threadbare and torn by the conflicts of 1776, 1812 and 1S61. are estimated to be worth $1,000 each. .

Inltely and exactly specifying the powers, providing rigid inspection of finance, providing complete publicity, and providing that no line of work not specially mentioned in the articles of Incorporation shall be entered upon without the unanimous consent and approval of the board of trustees nor unless Congress is directly informed of such intention. Congress is further urged to make provision for a thorough investigation of all endowed institutions, both secular and religious, whose property holdings or income exceeds a moderate amount. Urges Federal Activity. The third recommendation touching upon the work of foundations is that governmental activity along the lines of education and social service should be increased as the only effective means of counteracting the influence

-of the foundations ,as long,aa they are

permitted to exist. The report says in full regarding concentration - of wealth : ":

"The - evidence developed by the.;

hearings and investigation of the commission is the basis for the following statements:

1. The control of manufacturing.! mining and transportation industries j is to an increasing degree passing j into the hands of great corporations!

through stock ownership, and control of credit is centralized in a comparatively small number of enormously powerful financial institutions. These financial institutions are in turn dominated by a very small number of powerful financiers. 2. The finanl control of American industry rests, therefore, in the hands of a small number of wealthy and powerful financiers. 3. The concentration of ownership and control is greatest in the basic industries upon which the welfare of the country must finally rest. Points Out a Menace. 4. With few exceptions each of the great basic industries is dominated by a single large corporation, and where this is not true; the control of the industry through stock ownership in supposedly independent corporations and through credit is almost, if not quite, as potent. 5. In such corporations, in spite of the large number of stockholders, the control through actual stock ownership rests with a very small number of persons. For example, in the United States Steel Corporation, which had in 1911, approximately 100.000 shareholders, 1.5 per cent of the stockholders held 57 per cent of the stock, while the final control rested with a single private banking house. Similarly in the American Tobacco company, before the dissolution, 10 stockholders owned 60 per cent of the stock. 6. Almost without exception the employees of the large corporations are unorganized, as a result of the active and aggressive "non-union" policy of the corporation managements. Control of Colleges. . "Apart from these foundations there is developing a degree of control over the teachings of professors in our colleges and universities which constitutes a most serious menace. In June of this year two professors, known throughout their professions as men of great talent and high character, were dropped from the positions they had occupied and no valid reason for such action was made public. Both were witnesses before, the commission, and made statements based upon

their own" expert knowledge and ex

perience which were given wide pub

licity. One was a professor of law in a state university, who had acted "as

counsel for the strikers in Colorado; the other a professor of economics, who'had not only been active in fights in behalf of child labor legislation and other progressive measures but had recently published a work comparing the income paid for property ownership with the income paid for, all classes 'of service. ' In the case of the state university we know that the coal operators in conjunction with other business interests had gained the ascendancy and exercised a great degree of control over . the. former, governor of the state, that the coal operators'; were bitterly opposed to the professor In question, and that the dismissal of the professor had .beeri publicly' urged "'"by the operators upon numerous occasions, and we have the uncontroverted statement of the professor that he had been warned that if he testified befre

the commission he would not be re

appointed. In the case of the professor in the other university (which, though privately endowed, receives large appropriations from the state) we know that its trustees are interested in corporations which have bitterly opposed progressive legislation, and are men whose incomes are derived from, property ownership and" not from service. As To Strike Breakers. "The immediate cause ' of violence in connection with industrial disputes is almost without exception the attempt to introduce strikebreakers to take the place of the workers who have struck or who are locked out. The entire problem of policing Industrial disputes grows out of the problem of the strikebreaker and the attitude of the State toward him. "All experience shows that if no attempt, is made.-to operate the plant, violence and disturbances requiring the police are practically unknown, whereas the altempt of strikebreakers to reach - the plant, particularly where etrikers are enjoined or prevented from using reasonable means to inform them of the existence of the strike and to use persusive methods to keep them from entering the plant, is invariably accompanied by disorder and'sometimes by active violence. "The plea of tha workers for the assumption cf a new attitude in relation to strikebreakers is based not only upon the negative character of the rights of the employer and the strikebreaker, but upon a positive though somewhat undefinable demand for recognition that strikers have a right to the jobs which they have left until their grievances are in some way adjusted. The argument is not only that when workers are willing to strike and sacrifice their livelihood, the conditions against which they protest must be assumed to be socially injurious, but, even more, that the worker who has struck in support of his demand for better conditions has not abandoned his job, but, in fact, has a keener interest In it than when quietly submitting to distasteful conditions." As To Immigration. Discussing immigration, the report urges restriction baBed upon the general provisions of the so-called Burnett-Dillingham bill. It recommends: 1. "The enactment of legislation providing for the restriction of immigration based upon the general provisions contained in the so-called Burnett-Dillingham bill, which has received the approval of two successive Congresses. With a full realization of the many theoretical objections which have been urged against the literacy test, the consensus of evidence is so strong that its practical workings would be to restrict immigration to those who are likely to make the most desirable citizens, to regulate immigration in some degree in proportion to the actual needs of American industry, and finally . to promote education in Europe, that it seems. necessary at least to urge that this plan be given a practical test. ' 2. "The enactment of legislation providing that within six months from the time of entry all immigrants shall be required, under penalty of depor tation, either to declare their intention to beebme citizens by taking out their first papers or to definitely reg

ister themselves with the proper au-

" Under the caption of "Ye Good Old Times," Mrs. Sarah A. Wrigley, daughr ter of John Finley, one of the promt rent men in Richmond years ago. wrote ; an - interesting article .which was published years, ago. It pertains to the early Germans. The first section is printed today, the concluding section will appear tomorrow. j "YE GOODOLD TIMES." ; (By Mrs. Sarah A. Wrigley.) The first Germans settling in Richmond -were stone masons, , quarriers, teamsters and day laborers. To them we are indebted for our good streets - The men were strong and healthy, working , day after day, and year after year, until their backs. were bent. and their hands crippled. Even then -they were not willing to be idle, but shouldering a "buck and saw," with axe in hand, they went from house to house sawing and splitting the wood which was the only fuel. Their industry was seconded by their frugality, wages were low, but they contrived to save a little each week, and soon had enough to buy a lot and build a bouse. Then the wife spaded the ground and planted a garden, raising all the vegetables used in the summer and potatoes, cabbage, turnips and onions for the winter. Besides a row of marigols (Mary's plant.

to season the soup) not a foot of

ground could be spared for flowers. The only luxuries allowed were coffee and an occasional bucket of beer. The "family pig" furnished meat, and the cow the milk for the growing children, the number increasing annually. The. German vote influenced the elections, and decided the city improvements. It was a long time before cows and hogs could be banished from the streets. The German claimed the right to pasture his cow on the public commons and allow his hogs to feed in the alleys and gutters. There was no sewage system to carry off the slops from the kitchen, all the refuse went

Into the alleys or the street gutters, stagnating the pools for the hogs to wallow in. Oh, the dog-fennel and weeds that lined those gutters! "Thrifty Germans" was a common expression when speaking of them. I knew one man who was out of bed at 4 a. m., and thought nothing of walking a half mile to saw and split a cord of stove wood before 7 o'clock. This man acquired a competence and lived more than ninety years. COMES TO RICHMOND MUCIE, Ind., Aug. .2$, Glen Miller park, in Richmond, will be "the scene of the fifth annual reunion of the Hawk family, on Sunday, September 5. Muncie-was the scene of last year's meeting, and three Muncie men were named as officers: John W. Hawk as president, Charles E. Hawk as secretary and C. A. Wood as treasurer. The present-day members of the family are direct descendents of Phillip Hawk, who moved from Pennsylvania in 1817, and settled near Oxford, O. His father came to America Just prior to the Revolutionary war.

Talks With Lovers

MAKES QUEER MISTAKE

ELKHART, Ind., Aug. 26. That he mistook her for his wife, is the defense made by Rufus Morna, reBtaurant proprietor, in a damage suit filed

against him by Mabel Adams, a dressmaker, wherein she charges Morna with having struck her with his fist while at a lake re6ort with other men and women, breaking her no'se.

Iowa has 8,720,000 hogs.

One - of th first commaadmeata which should be. siren to the newly married man it: .. . . . Do not lie to thy wife, no matter what circumstances may be against thee. '- 1 .The' husband who lies to bit wife opens up a roadway which may ultimately lead to the ruin of the home. He can not always conceal the tact that he has told an untruth, if this would Justify him. To hide one lie be must tell another. Eventually the

wife finds out -that her husband ts untruthful. . Immediately she lose faith in htm. She Is justified in believing that since he has falsified to her one he will do so again. Anything that be tells Is regarded with suspicion. - It is but a short step them for the the wife to begin lieing to the Husband. Distrust and disrespect . begin gaining at a rapid pace. Discontent and disappointment follow. Quarrels are frequent and . the divorce follows. SPEAKS TO HER. Dear Miss Carothers Good-looking young man who stands in front of a Main street cigar store and poolroom has boldly spoken to me the last few days, and has smiled at me. ' What should I do; he is a very handsome boy. THOUGHTFUL. Are you sure that you have not encouraged the young man with a sly smile? Otherwise be would not have the courage to speak to you. Good features do not always vouch for the character of the man. You -will do well to disregard bis attentions unless be obtains a proper introduction. INVITED A KISS. Dear Miss Carothers I met a nice man at a dance the other night. He came- to see me a few. nights later When he was going to leave without kissing me good night as many other boy, friends do. I tempted him. - He haa not been back. - What is the matter. LONESOME. The young man is not to be blamed for bis absence, if be is the nice person you declare be is. By inviting him to kiss you. you cheapened yourself in his eyes until he does not care for your friendship.
