" ... s
f Parents and teacrrers might do
well to ask children to read each
day the educational Hem anenf
the Panama Canal tto be found at
the head of this column. They '
are little nuggets, of interest on a
matter of interest to every Amer
ican culled carefully and touched
6n briefly- from leading author
itative educational' journals, A
Upon completion, the Panares
Canal will be shorter, have fewer
locks and less curvature than the
one. planned at Nicaragua. The
measure of these advantages is
the time required for a vessel
to pass through, which is esti
mated for an average ship at 12
hour for Panama and 33 hours
for 'Nicaragua. - On the other
hand, ' the distance ' from San
Francisco to New York is 377
miles, t3 New Orleans 679 miles,,
and to Liverpool 3H(i miles
greater via the way of Panama
than via Nicaragua. The time
required to pass over these dis
tances being greater , than the
difference in the time of transit
through the canals, the Nicaragua
line, if completed, would have
been somewhat the more advan
tageous of the two to the United
States, . notwithstanding the
greater cost of maintaining the
longer canal. But the , Panama
Canal is best for the commerce of
all the world. ;
This house' is to give some
Portland school the large work
ing model of the Panama Canal,
now on exhibition in one of the
large show windows. The school
will be chosen by popular vote of
the people a vote with every
