Finished Its Report In a finnl report submitted to Congress, the Bourne Committee on Railway Pay has recommend ed enactment of a law substitut ing space for weight ns the basis of railway mail compensa tion and has recommended rates which will yie'd the railroad companies a revenue slightly less than the average revenue received Irom the transportation of passengers, the revenue in each instance being computed on n car mile basis. It is cs timnted that this will result in increasing the comnensation of the railroads about three million dollars per annum, or slightly less than five per cent. The railroads contended that they were underpaid liftcen million dollars per year. Former Senator Jonathan Bourne, Chairman of the Com mittce, took occasion in sub mitting the report to call atten tion to the fact that Former Postmnster General Hitchcock had urgently recommended the onnctment of 11 bill for rnilwnv mail pay which he Inter aban- WKflntTI in Pflll donnd na unwise. imiHhn PnHt- fI,',UUm 111 ruF odicc Department, in two ad ministrations has advocated four different plans for compensating the railroads. Discussing the delay in filing tho report, Mr. Bourne says: "Whilo I recognized the do sirnbilily of an expeditious con elusion to our work. I believed it more important that we should do our work thoroughly than that we should conclude it ciuick ly. I should regret extremely and ue deeply mimiiintcti 11 our investigation had resulted, as did that of tho Postolllce Depart menl, in our changing our at titude three timos and advocat ing four radically different measures. Wo should certainly forfeit all claim tot ho con doner; of Congress if we presented such a record of vacillation as did the Department. If, in our anxiety to bo expeditious, wo had re pudiatcd three plans we had evolved, upon what theory could wo expect Congress to beliove that wo would for any consider able length of time continue to advocate any new plan we might commend?" wmmumm YOU CAN SEND YOUR BOY TO COLLEGE WHEN yOU HAVE MONEY IN THE BANfC a Bank-Book is THE BEST SCHOOL BOOK; FOR IT CONTAINS A PRACTICAL AND USEFUL EDUCATION.

Couch. There has been in many cities and towns during recent years a general extension of our popu lar education, especially in the higher grades. Many of these innovations have been manifest ly wiso and calculated to further strengthen and popularize our public school system, as, for ex ample, the establishment of high schools for boys where mechan ical arts and practical commercial education may be acquired, so that on leaving the school tho boys will be fitted to successfully enter the ever broadening fields of mechanical and business ac tivity. So also wo have in somo of our cities high schools of prac tical arts for girls, whore, in addition, to a thorough course in domestic economy, comprehen sive courses in millinery, dress making nnd art designing offer opportunities for young women to prepare themselves for suc cessful maintenance in voca tions that afford excellent op portunities for skilled workers. In somo of the grammar schools, courses in short hand, book keeping and mechanical indus tries such as typesetting hnvo been acceptably introduced for the benefit of those who nro un able to continue through tho high school. Thoro aro other innovations, however, that have materially lessoned tho popularity of the public schools and whose value ib far less obvious. Indeed, some or tneso aro open to very gravo objections. Thoy lessen tue sense oi responsibility on tho part of a parent at a timo whon lending thinkers every whero aro admitting this failure on the part ol parents to be ono of tno chief, if not tho prin cipnl causo of tho very ovil complained of in our young. 1 ho attempt to introduce sex hygiene ailords an illustration of what wo havo in mind. Tho nation wido opposition to this and other recent innovations should not bo ignored by thoso n charge of our popular educa tfon. rrominent statesmen educators and oven somo phys icians of national reputation havo recontly sounded warnings that call for serious considern tion. Take, for example tho outspoken protest of Governor Dunno of Illinois, in which he declared his conviction that tho teaching of sex hvgiono in tho schools "will induco rather than suppress immorality and un chastity." Governor Dunno was educated in our public schools nnd is naturally desirous of promoting nonulnr education. but in his protest ho savs: "I honestly fear that if sex hygieno be taught in tho schools and young boyB and young girls In tho opon class rooms nro mado nwaro ol things which may bo taught in the lino of sex hygiene, it mny create, and probably will create, in their young minds a puriont curiosity, which will induce, rather than suppress immorality and unchastity." That tho Governor voices tho sentiment of a very largo num ber of highly intelligent citizens is indicated by a volume of other recent protests from states man as well as educators, clergy men and physicians.
