' .Visit the High School Tonight Members of the school system of Richmond urge citizens to attend the public sessions of the , high school which will be conducted there to

night for the purpose of acquainting the city with 1 the practical operation of the institution. Seldom, indeed, does the citizenship have an opportunity to watch a school at work and to see teachers instructing the youth in the branches of learning. Equally interesting is a sfUdy of the system under which a school of the proportions of the High school is managed. Parents for the most part have a vague notion of school affairs. They are satisfied if their children make passing grades and are promoted from class to class until they emerge from the grades into high school and finally conclude their work in the public schools. How many parents take serious counsel with their children regarding the selection of studies they make and of the fitness of the branches for the vocation which they will follow through life? How many follow the child, grade by grade, and year by year, watching carefully their educational progress and noting how they are preparing themselves for the real test of life? Very few. They look upon the teacher as tHeir vicarious substitute and entrust the child's welfare into their hands. Should a child fail to make a passing grade, the teacher usually gets the blame, while the parent forgets that interest on his part might have prevented the setback to the child's schooling.

If every parent realized that doing the work that he cannot would co-operate with the teacher child and suggesting means of child's interest in his school work, Today's Talk j By George Matthew Adams UNDERNEATH Oreat truth is very deeply laid.

They probably will learn many things about which they are now in profound ignorance, and the teachers may also be told of facts of which they knew nothing. By bringing together the pupil, the parent and the teacher in the classroom, the school authorities are on the right track to solve a number of problems.

Praise for the Richmond Symphony The favorable comment which "Musical America," the foremost musical paper in s the United States, makes upon the first appearance of the symphony orchestra should encourage the players in their effort to sustain an organization that recently was revived under auspicious circumstances. The svmnhony orchestra at one time was one

of the features

mona an unaeniaoiy large amount oi commendable notice. The excellence of the organization was such that Richmond was envied by many cities of much larger population. The resumption of work by the orchestra, even if its membership is smaller than the old one, marks a forward stride in the musical life of the community. "Musical America" seemed very much impressed with the fact that the members of the orchestra were all residents of the city and that there was no foreign talent in the personnel. The musical talent of Richmond is far beyond that of the average city of this size, owing primarily to the development of music in our public schools. The result of this work, which was begun about twenty years ago, is now asserting itself in the large number of persons who either play and sing or have a comprehension of good music. The number5 of high-grade teachers of music in Richmond also is larger than that found in cities of this size. They also did their work in instructing the youth and developing a love for music in the community. The orchestra has been successfully launched

the teacher is

and there is every reason to hope that it will

do, and as result ! remain as one of in studying the j musical life of promoting the the task of the

sion, as well as being an organization that will offer opportunity for the enjoyment of concerts.

THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND

of our city that gave to Richthe mediums through which the the community may find expres I Rippling Rhymes I By WALT MASON 1 SNOW When I was young, long, long ago. 1 1 loved to see the falling snow; but now that I am old and bent, I do not like it worth a cent. The land looks ghastly, stark and dead, when over it the snow is spread; the land where late the roses bloomed is in its shroud, in snow entombed. I like this good old pleasant globe when shinning verdure forms its robe, when grass is growing on the hills, and codfish sport along the rills; then everything seems full of vim; I dance and shake a buoyant limb; and if some common village scold comes up to tell me I am old, I turn a handspring on the green, to show that I am sweet sixteen. It takes the sunshine and the breeze to limber up a dotard's knees, and make him feel he's still on earth, a creature of some use and worth. But when he from the window looks on naked woods and frozen brooks, on snow wreaths whirling in a rage, he feels the burden of his age. It seems to him his age must be a thousand years, plus two or three. And all the boys he used to know are sleeping somwhere 'neath the snow; and colder than a miser's soul the snow comes down, while church bells toll a requiem for Tom or Jim when will the blamed bells toll for him? Such thoughts the drifting snowflakes bring; and snow's bleak and ghostly thing.

Answers to Questions ; ; j CURIOUS To satisfy the curiosity of two Questions column readers, will you please tell me how people started the well-nigh universal custom of shaking hands when they meet or part? Like most-of our customs, it comes down from the misty past. In the times when life was less secure than now, and most everybody carried a sword, at any rate everybody who laid claims to being a gentleman, it was the custom when meeting another to show that there was no treachery by offering each the weapon hand, free from the weapon. To .hold back the hand was equivalent to a challenge to combat. This habit became so fixed that long after swords ceased to be worn men still offered the weapon hand to friends and declined to do so to enemies. Among savages who never carried a sword the habit of hand shaking is unknown, and it affords them the greatest amusement to see white men salute each other in that way.

INDIANA STUDENTS IN OUTSIDE UNIVERSITIES BLOOM INGTON, Ind., Dec. 16 Many young men and women of Indiana are seeking their university training in state-supported universities of other states surrounding Indiana, the committee on state universities and normal schools reports after an extensive survey. In the state universities of Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio and Minnesota there are 1,068 Indiana students enrolled, according to the committee's figures. From these five states Indiana University has but 32 students enrolled while Purdue university has but 193 registered from these states. An analysis of the survey shows lhat 450 Hoosier students are attending the University of Illinois while five years ago only 199 Hoosier students were registered there. At this time there are 322 students from Indiana cities and towns attending the University of Michigan, 174 at the Uni versity of Wisconsin, 97 at Ohio state and nine at the University of Minnesota. Five years ago only a small per cent: of Hoosier students were attending these state supported universities. The drift the committee pointed out, of Indiana students to other state universities in Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio and Minnesota parallels the increased public support these universities have received in the last five years. Liberal support of the surrounding universities has enabled them to take from the state supported schools in Indiana the best faculty members and following them have gone large numbers of Hoosier students. The two state supported universities and normal schools In Indiana will request the coming session of the General Assembly to authorize a levy sufficient to maintain and operate the universities in keeping with the forward movement in higher education. Ohio News Flashes TIFFIN. Suit to compel the City Board of Health and Board of Education to permit the return to school of 60 pupils who have refused to be vaccinated, has been instituted here. An order was issued last November by the Health Board that all students be vacciuated by the scarification method. Those that refused were suspended. CLEVELAND One death and seven persons injured is the toll exacted by the gale-driven sleet storm that swept over this city. Alfred Arnold, Toledo, advertising salesman, was killed when his automobile skiddod and crashed into a tree. Automobile -crashes due to wet pavements caused the injuries to the others. CLEVELAND. Three armed thugs robbed Mrs. Rudolph Deutsch, wife of a jeweler, of $7,000 worth of jewels at her home on Parkwood drive. Diamond earrings were taken from her ears and her fingers stripped of jewels. The robbers escaped. Women were the recipients of a large number of the awards given last year by the Royal Life Saving Society of GreaBritain for ability in saving the lives of persons in danger of drowning.

MORRIS WILL CASE ENDS IN COMPROMISE Contest of the will of the late Henry F.- Morris, Jackson township fanner, was compromised when the case was called for trial in the ' Henry county circuit court at Newcastle, where it had been taken on a change of venue from the Wayne circuit court. The estate is valued "at $15,000 and under the terms of the compromise the contestant, Joseph Morris, who had been disinherited by nls father, Henry F. Morris, receives $1,500. Defendants to the action brought by Morris were his stepmother, Mrs. Mattie M. Abbott, second wife of Henry Morris, and his two stepsisters, Mary D. Morris and Maggie May Morris, both minors. Under the terms of the will left by Henry Morris, the entire estate was 'eft to his second wife and the two children by the second marriage. It is stated that the father and son were not on good terms. At the time of his father's death, over three years ago, Joseph Morris was serving in the United States army. Had this not been the case his suit to contest the will would have been invalid owing to the fact that it was filed after the fieriod prescribed in the statue of limlations had expired. This stVitute provides that the limitation period for entering contests against wills does not extend to men serving in the army or navy of the United States. Joseph Morris contended that his father was of unsound mind at the time the will was made. DIVIDES ROYAL ESTATE (By Associated Press.) MADRID, Dec. 16.
