THE OTHER SIDE The Enterprise
OF THE MATTER in this issue prints
the report of the Live Wires' commit
tee that investigated the charges pre
ferred against the county court, This
report is published, as was the report
of the committee of three that took
things in its own hands at the mass
meeting last week, as a matter of
news in which all citizens of the
county should be interested. The
Live Wires, though being dubbed
"useless"' by the committee of three,
made an independent investigation of
the various complaints submitted,
and The Enterprise is of the opinion
that on the face of things the Live
Wires have more thoroughly, probed
the several matters than did Messrs.
Brown, Sehuebel and Casto.
Called into the matter by the first
committee to see that fair play should
be the ruling spirit of the investiga
tion, the gentlemen from the Live
Wires had no personal bias in the
complaints at hand, and took up each
charge with an open mind. The find
ings of their probe are given in a
dignified form, and show a much
greater thoroughness than did the
superficial and indefinite mounthings
of the disgruntled trio who, as this pa
per has before charged, deliberately
organized a protest upon county mat
ters as the initial step in a "frame
up," the object of which was to add
strength to their abortive recall move
ment. Readers of The Enterprise are urg
ed to read both reports, and then to
read them a second time. Each read
er is asked to pass judgment in the
matter on the evidence submitted in

American Schools Can Compare
With Best In the World
By Dr. KIRSCHENSTEINER, Superintendent of Schools In Munich.

E Germans may boast of
the world. We, too, may boast of having given it Pes
talozzi and Froebel. We may also boast that no people
even at this day has so systematized the public schools as
we have, but we can NO LONGER STRUT AROUND IN THE
TOGA OF TEACHER OF THE WORLD. The American pub
lie school system is but fifty years old, whereas the German system
looks back upon one hundred and fifty years of existence.
THERE ARE SOME STATES AND SOME CITIES IN THIS YOUNG
NATION IN WHICH THERE ARE SCHOOL ORGANIZATIONS AND ED
UCATIONAL ACQUIREMENTS THAT CAN COMPARE WITH THE BEST
IN THE WORLD AND FROM WHICH WE GERMANS CAN LEARN AS
MUCH NOW AS THE AMERICANS ONCE LEARNED FROM US.
The A merican child has an elementary school course of eiht vcars,
as is the case in Germany. It.has annually alxmt nine hiimlred hours
of instruction, in its full cour,e about seven thousand two hundred
hours. In Bavaria the rural child has about six thousand live hundred
hours; the city child (Munich) about eight thousand hours. In the
United States the hours of instruction are devoted exclusively to secu
lar instruction, whereas in Germany from one-fifth to one-seventh of
the total time is devoted to religious instruction.

the two sets of findings, and in form
ing such judgment is asked to take
into consideration the form and word
ing of the two reports. If this is
done, The Enterprise believes that
most of its readers will agree that
this paper has been justified in all
that it has said about the committee
of three, its methods and its means of
attaining its ends; and will conclude
that the county officials have in the
main fulfilled their oath to the citi
zens who elected them to office.
BETTER THAN Young women of
"SOCIAL WORK" Gladstone have or
ganized a baseball team. Daily they
may be observed at practice on the
school grounds, and a healthier and
happier set of girls would be hard to
find. In their exercise they are re
futing the time-worn charge that "a
girl can't throw straight," and are al
so proving that in baseball, as in oth
er matters, "curves" are primarily a
matter in which femininity , ' excels.
These Gladstone girls are doing some
thing more than just playing baseball,
too; they are learning self reliance,
forbearance and rapidity of decision.
They are getting general exercise,
they are slapping Mrs. Grundy in the
face each time they swing a bat, and
they are developing true character;
for nothing so quickly does away with
pettishness as participation in com
petitive sport.
Some folk do not think the girls
ought to play baseball. They fear it
will harden them. Probably it will,
but only in a beneficial way. Other
fault-finders declare that it will cause
the young ladies to become "unwom
anly." If being "womanly" consists
in timidity, lack of power . to make
quick decision, laxity of muscle and
bodily development, and false mod
esty, probably baseball is making
these girls "unwomanly." Probably
they don't care to sit around the sew
ing circle and tear their neighbor's
reputations to shreds, probably they
take no interest in scandal, probably
these young women hall players pre
fer stories of constructive merit to
the writings of "The Duchess." Prob
ably they would rather go out and
split wood for a sick woman than to
lounge by the fire and embroider a
pink bib for the ailing woman's baby.
And probably as a result they will
grow up to he better women, truer to
their duties in this world, and better
able to become good wives and home
builders. having given the public school to

the game. The baseball girls of

in their youth instead of going to
pink teas and eating pickles, cake, tea

STRENUOUS L0VEMAKING.
Duke William Tamed Matilda, and She
Got Square on Brihtric.
A modern lover who resorted to
brute force to win his lady would, soon
find himself in the street, if not iu the
police station. But fashions in pro
posals have changed in a thousand
years, and when William the Conqueror
set out to make Matilda, daughter of
the Count of Flanders, the happiest
of maidens he adopted measures that
were forcible, to say the least. The
New York Sun tells the story of his
tempestuous wooing:
The suitor Matilda had she did not
want, and the man she wished to woo
her she could not get. The man she
did not want happened to be William,
duke of Normandy, and he decided to
go to Bruges and conquer Matilda.
There were no national roads through
France in those days, and William
doubtless had a hard trip. Perhaps
Matilda noticed the mud on his clotljes
when she came out of church and
found him waiting for her.
At any rate, William descended from
his horse, and taking Matilda firmly
by the back of the neck, rolled her
over and over In the.mire of Bruges,
planting well directed blows npon her
royal face- and body with his other
handi Life was elemental a' thousand
years ago.

This strenuous lovemaking somehow
appealed to Matilda. Perhaps it was
what she would have liked to do to
Brihtric. the gentleman she could not
get, who was only the English am
bassador at her father's court and not
at all a proper person to be snubbing
a princess. So Matilda sent word to
her father that, "sick in health and
dolorous in body." she had firmly re
solved to marry no man but Duke
William. '
Later, after William had conquered
England, he offered his queen the
estates of any English nobleman she
might name. Matilda did not have to
think twice. She not only chose Brih
tric's estates, but she put him in prison
and kept him there all the rest of his
life an excellent argument for the
wise custom of restricting woman's
choice to one year in four.
Too Much Curiosity.
A dangerous operation was being per
formed upon a woman. Old Dr. A., a
quaint German, full of kindly wit and
professional enthusiasm, had several
younger doctors with him. One of
them was administering the ether. EU
became so interested in the old doc
tor's work that he withdrew the cone
from the patient's nostrils, and she
half roused and rose to a sitting pos
ture, looking with wild eyed amaze
ment over the surroundings. It was
a critical period, and Dr. A. did not
want to be interrupted. "Lay down,
dere. woman." he commanded gruffly.
"You haf more curiosity as a medical
student."
