With a ye that woke up theentire West Side, Jackson promptlyfell down two flights, jumped downtwo more, burst open a dooT androlled into the street. For some timethereafter he was running in circlesuntil 'he was rounded up.

"No, sah; no, sah," he vociferate!"You kin pale all of Jawn D. Rocke-feller's millions up on dat flo' and tellme ter hep mysel' and I ain't gwinenear. Ah suttenly thought Ah- - had erswell job, but Ah gives it up."

MORE ABOUTHEALTH IN SCHOOL

ANOTHER LETTER IS SENTOUT BY THE STATE

BOARD.

Question of Proper Heating Lightand Ventilation Is Subject Of

Discussion.

MWhy Not Protect the Health ofSchool Children?" is the title of apulblic letter which the State Boardof Health is sending out To the peo-

ple of the State. The questions fpure air,proper heevting, lighting andVentilation and good water supply aretaken up in a way that is intended tomake them appeal to the parents ofschool children.

"We find in nine schoolhouses outof ten that the simple matter of ven-

tilation is not prcperly attended to.and ithe school children' suffer' saysthe board. "Parents in any localitywould sfop work and spend their lastcent to prevent their childrerrvfrombeing injured in any open and plain-

ly seen way, but they do Ciesntate toprevent injury to their children whenit occurs b a slow and not well-understo-

od

process. Let us considerwhat happens whe children arc" shutup in a schoolroom that is heated bystoves, and no ventilating ducts in

the walls, and perhaps where cro-i- s

lights or direct lights or insufficientlight strain and injure t'iie eyes.Not Uniformly Warmed by Stoves."A schoolroom in which there i

a "stove is never evenly and uniform-ly warmed, and the same air, or aboutthe same air is heated over and overdenying the pupils the amount whichnature says they must have to keepwell. Besides t'iis the children nearthe stove are overheated, madesweaty and uncomfortable, an 1 Jitconsequence can not study ard pro-

gress as they should. They ac als.)

rendered more liable to catch coldwhen they go out. All of this is a

handicap upon them. But remember,also, that the children seated awayfrom the stove are cold and ch:llyand in consequence can not studyand progress as they hould, and r j

like the overheated ones near thestove, are more liable to catch old.So it appears that heating school-

room with stoves is a money los, forit puts a handicap upon the progressof the pup'ls, and besides makes themmore liable to clds. Indeed, it' is ex-

travagant, bad business, unjust andcruel to the children.

Matter of Ventilation."It is. absolutely impossible to

properly ventilate a schoolroom bywindows and doors in the wintertime. To ventilate properly it is nceessary to (have ventilating ducts ofample size and alwys in good work-

ing order, and also necessary to'havefurnace of ample size, taking fresh

iir irom outside, warming and thenintroducing it into the schoolroom

"School children should have plen-

ty of good pure water to drink. Notto supply it is cruelty. Yet, theschoolhouses in Indiana are not few

where good water is wanting, andagain and again we have foundschoolhouses in the country whichhad rvo wells and the pupils werecompelled to carry water or run quitea distance to the nearest farmhouseto get a drink. We know of somesuch sehooB.iiouses which havechurches near rhem and in which col-

lections are taken up for the heathen.Strange inconsistency!

Water Supply."In cities, schools are generally

supplied with water from the publicwater-wor- k- and the matter is sup-

posed to be looked after by the localhealth board; but in the country, t.county trustee is the governing au-

thority and the people make the trus-tee. It is, therefore, in the power ofthe country eoplc to have aboutwhat they want in the way of schools.

"Deep tubular wells give the 'bestwater supply. Dug wells should notbe used, because they easily becomepolluted by surface drainage, anil theState Board of Health advises thatit is dangerous to drink water fromthem. All dug wells should be aband-

oned. The can not be trusted. Buck-

ets with tin drinking cups shouldnever be used. It is impossible todrink from any drnling vessel andnot leave spittle on the edge. A scar-

let fever, diphtheria and sore throatare passed from one child, to anotherin spittle, we should not arrange mat-

ters so that spittle may be passedfrom one mouth to another, for thisis no invite disease.

Buckets Pas Disease."Water buckets and common

Irinking c.ips are a fine invention forpassing disease from one child toanother, and while hundreds have es-

caped disease from this source, oth-

er hundreds have been made sick andnumerou deaths have resulted. Smallsmooth, thick glass drinking cupsshould be supplied to school children,and the drinking water drawn directinto them from a faucet of the watercooler, or direct from tr.ie pump spoutThis makes possible- - the rinsing c:the cup and prevents adding spittleto the water supply as happens' whena bucket is used. Do away with thecommon wUr bucket and old tincups, 'because they re nasty and con-

stitute a splendid nitfeod for trans-mitting disas. And let every pumphave a tight trough and good drain-

age to earrv away waste water. Thiswould be good business."

GIGANTIC COST OFPANAMA CANAL

EXPERT SAYS THAT THE TO-TA- L

COST WILL BE$210,000,000.

Fifty Per Cent. More Than OriginalEstimate Exclusive of $50,000,-00- 0

Paid for Concessions.

The completed Panama canal willcost at least $210,000,000 exclusive ofthe $50,000,000 paid to the concessionholders, according to estimates madeby Halbert P. Gillette, editor of Enginceriiig-Contractin- g. This is 50 percent more than the original esthna'e

$140,000,000 exclusive of the pur-

chase prices. His figures aro bas d

on the report of tlie Isthmian canalcommission for the fiscal year endingJune 30.

The estimated cot of a sea levelcanal was $247,000,000.

"With the excavation only one-t'.iir- d

done, with dams and locks onlyjust begun," says Mr Gillette, "thevvork has cost $83,000,000, leaving buta meagre $55,000,000 with which tocomplete the work within the amountthat t'he American people had expectcd to pay. The locks and dams alonewill cost that $35,000,000. The remaining 74,000,000 yards of excavationwill cost $59,000,000 at the very leastIn all probability the cost of excavation will continue to increase.

Who is Responsible?"This, in brief, is the situatin

Who is responsible for it, and howcan further gross waste of publicfunds be prevented? When the origi-

nal board of consulting engineersmade its estimate of cost undoubtedly some error occurred, but the gi-

gantic blunder was made w'lien ihegovernment abandoned the idea o;d ing the work by contract and utidcrtook to do it by his own forces

"Each of the chief engineers suc-

cessfully put in charge of the cana'perceived, as he thought, a chance tcwm eternal fame by acting not onlyas chief engineer, but as indtistriacaptain of a great army of men Theresult is precisely what every unbiasd engineer acquainted vifh condi-

tions has expected. Not one oi theeminent chief engineers of the Pana-ma canal had ever been a constructing engineer in the sense that a con-

tractor is. The public tailed to per-

ceive the importance of this distinc-tion and did not protest against per-mitting the actual construction to belaced in the hands of men utterly

ivitliout the proper training or ex-

perience.""Aside from this blunder fhere is

the fundamental error involved inever attempting to do public workof any magn'tudc by forces directlyin tie government employ. So longas human nature remains as it is theaverage laborer working for a f ov-ernm-

will not work as faithfullyas he will work for a private individ-ual or corporation.

The Remedy."If the present waste of public

funds is to be checked the first stepshould be to appoint a board analog-ous to a boarvl of directors on a rail-

way. This board should" not be engaged in the actual detail of canalcon? (ruction, but should receive rhereports of the var'ous departmentsand perform the various functions belonging to a board of directors. Witiia broad knowledge, and untircly un-

biased by personal motives, such a

board would act in behalf of thestockholders of this great enterprise,the citizens of America. .

"The next step should be theof contracts for the comple-

tion of the canal, the work of whichis really only just begun since thirl -

five per cent, of the excavation andnearly one hundred per cent, of tiemasonry remains to be done. The ex-

isting plant should be turned over tocompetent contractors, either undeunit price contracts, or

contracts or both as theboard of directors mignt decide.

"The country has really been k.-.-v

in the dark as to the true efficiencyof .t'he organization in cuarge of thecanal work. A lion roar has been raised from time to time about the astonishing amount of excavation yard-age being moved at Panama, out noa mouse Whisper about its unit cos

" A year ago, in the midst of thgreatest noise about the yardage thatha:l been excavated at Fanama durng the previous year, the Northern

Pacific railway quietly announced i"its annual report to its stockholderthat the contractors excavating eartland rock for the Northern Pacifichad moved a greater yardage, thanhad been moved at Panama.

The nwly fleeted president ca1begin his administration in no m.irrauspicious manner than by reorganizing the construction administrationof the Panama' canal along the linesuniversal! adopted by the great rail-

way systems of this country first,by appointing a board of directors:second, by confining the chief engi-

neer to the duties ordinarily exercised by the chief engineer of a railway;and third, by putting al the remain-ing construction under contract w't'iihe least possible delay.

and goats'' but let fherc be also Al-pacas." .

But wc are really dealing with aserious problem. Christ declaredthere were only two classes of men,good and bad. Some of us navethought there ought to be a thirdclass for those who are not decidedlygood nor bad, but who are both goodand bad.

The 'proposition wit'h which we areto deal is that where the king-dom of righteousness! and thekingdom of evil meet there are to befound types of human characterwhidh seem to be of neither kingdombut seem to be subjects of both, thatthey have lived between the twokingdoms until tfiey have their citi-zenship in neither. The scientist hasproved that the alpaca is neithersheep nor goat but is a species ofcamel, thus doing away with any pos-sible intermediary c'as, and wehope to prove that Christ's classifi-cation of good an' l.-- d men stillstands supported by both Indepen-dent P'iiilosop'ier, Scientist and The-ologian.

Agree to Classification.My first claim--is that the indepen-

dent philosopher and the ChristianIhinker bo;h agree that the twofoldclassification which Christ mad- stillstands. The independent t'iinkerclaims that man presents a mixtureDf good and evil, that he is not goodor ba'd, but that he is borh good andbad at the same time, fhat he is asubject of strange moral contusionanj contradiction. Whether the goojsimply results from a lapse of thebad into quiesence, or whetiier thebad is simply the gaining strength o:his animal nature like the rising ofthe tide after its receding into thedeep is the question wfaich lies behind the evidence which makes usbelieve that man us bor.i good andjad at the same time. Hut back ofthe evidence of good and evil musbe found the internal power whichJetermines all mora action. Thismotive cannot be divided. It must beinc. To find this motive, or maste.-.assion-

,

supreme sympathy is to findthe single cause of a man's goodnessand badness. The independent thinker feels that he must look back of allaction for the motive and GeorgeSan-d- , .rationalist, free thinker andliver, expresses herself of this opin-ion. She dedares "Man is-- not eithergood or bad, be is good and bad atthe same time. And being good andbad at the same time he is somethingmore. He must possess some eternalpower which leads (him to be good orbad." She then admits that man at

heart must be tither good or bad,:hat every man has his master passion, or sympafhy, or moral bias byvhich he must be judged.

The Christian thinker on the otherhand declares thait the human cha-a- c

'ter is .simple, and is either good or' ad. He i., not good and bad at. thesame time. Jle has a spirit whichtransfuses itself through 'his entiremature, making him eitSicr good orhad according to the character of hi-pir-

it.

Christ taught that sin wasmoral leprosy. Now leprosy is a disease of the blood and a man needsonly the infection of the disease to bepronounced a leper. If the virus is inthe blood he is a leper. Now tiietree thinker and the Christian agreefor they both look at the heart andclaim that the ethical motive deter-mines a man's classification. Theyboth agree that men are borh good3r at the last analysis according totheir elect ideal, their master pas-sion and their supreme purpose. Theboth stand together when they ar-

rive at the heart of irjan and declareman at heart is not bofh good andbad, but that he is either good orbad, that he is either a sheep or agoat, a saint or a sinner, that Christwas right.

Second Agreement..The second foInt I want to make is

ihat the Scientist and the Theologianalso agree when they understandeach other,

The Scientist has always hadtrouble in maintaining 'his twofold.lassification of organic and inorganickingdoms. Certain scientific men in-

iist that there ought to be threeVngdoms, an inter-media- ry kingdomThat since the organic kingdom in-

cluded plants and animals and the inorganic kingdom included all theminerals there should be another onefor the microscopic world, whichforms the connecting link betweenthe two kingdoms, fhe demand forthis seems almost imperative but it

has become so far settled that to advocatc it is scientific heresy. Noscientist therefore of good standingwill advocate it.

The Christian's trouble to maintainhis twofold classification finds deepsympathy in the scientific realm. It"s also discovered that the settling ofthe question with one he!p to settleit with (he other.

The dentist's Vjtw.

The scientist however does nottake any stnnd for (the clairrf that manis both good and bad, he admits theunfathomable depravity of the raceHe calls tire theologian a weak sen-

timentalist who shrinks fron statingthe whole truth about man. He callshuman depravity the preponderanceof the bestial instincts and passion:in our na.ture.

declares that man is altogether bad.With him the Christian thinkeragrees and declares when he comesto judgment without Christ he willtake his place among the goats.

Christ then is not at variance withr

the position of the scientific thoughtof the day but it has rather provedtha: He was right and that His insight into man's nature was such asto 'settle the matter of his classification forever.

SCHOOL REVENUE QUESTION

State Superintendent Will Investigate What Becomes of State

School Revenues.

What becomes qt all the state revenues, particularly those, whichshould find thejr way rnto fhe schoo!fund, is again to be an importantquestion before ihe annual meetingof the State Teachers association inIndianapolis during the holidayweek.

Robert J. Aley, of Indiana university recently lected state superin-tendent of public instruction, is chair-ma- n

of the committee appointed atthe last annual session .to investigate the question of school revenuesThe committee, lie said, is abou,ready to report. This report probably will suggest legislative action tha:will result in more accurate reportsof fines and forfeitures from thecourts of the state and ithe fixing ofa uniform basis of taxation in all thecounties,

One of the worst features of thepresent tax system, Aley said, is thefact t'.iat the per cent of valuation 01which taxes are assessed varies in thedifferent counties. Thus one countpays taxes based on about 45 pecent of the actual value of propertywhile another county pays on a basiof 7 per ceni. This is entirely fairto the taxpayers of each coun-ty- , butIs utterly unfair to the state, sincethe county in which 70 per cent isthe basis pays more than its shareof the state taxes. Any legislationthat may be asked of the cominglegislature Aley said, will be of apreliminary nature, probably.
