cial. Tbe furore raised by the fall

the eight grade state examlnatlona In
clril government and grammar in
Clackamas County turns tbe calcium
on some of the questions put to city
students of the same grade, only S per
cent of whom fail to pasa on an aver
age, says the Evening Telegram. The
numerous failures of the county stu
dents are probably traceable to tho
fact that the state questions are not
baited on a text-book outline. No
text-book Is used, the I'nited State
Constitution alone being the basis of
study and wide latitude given the
teacher as to methods of Imparting the
subject.
Text-book or no text-bonk. the na.
tlons asked of youngsters are such as
would baffle the average voter. Pos
sibly there are such as could answer
glibly "what tbe constitution states
relative to' writ of habeas corpus or
ex-posi facto law, but the chances are
there sre many who would hedge.
To a student of constitutional law
the questions put to the 12-year-old
might net seem abnormally difficult.
