Pneumonia may be a Christmas vbiter in many of these houses. Seme of the up-and-at-'em Mayers in the West have been attempting te edu cate meter maniacs by leading them en ceurs of hospitals where injuted or dy'ng children lie as victims of speeder. .T.'.-e logic and law have been alike ina le ;uate te convince these fundamentally i-i -m-trel of the coal supply of their -"v-al r r epensibilities, the principle applied te tame wild drivers 'n Detroit an i il.-e-where might properly be extended te them. Operators and union leaders re sponsible for strikes and shutdown.? might be marched around for a len'.v at the patient children who stand in line at corner theps te buy coal by the b-.cket when they can get it and for a glance Inte small houses where ether c'.nl 'r. n shiver because even pennies aren't avail able for a few pounds of fual of any sort. It is only because coal is extremely scarce that the peer have te buy it by the bucket and pay, in the end, at the rate of nearly $30 a ten. Thu3 the high cost of coal weighs most heavily upon the people who are least able te bear it. With them the fuel shortage cuts two Ways. I tAMBER'lON BARS SPATS QHEKIFF LAMHERTON has put his feet down hard en that p.-opesltion of State Senater-elect Varc that a let of local officeholders buy spats and some ether articles of wearing apparel and parade in Harrisburg in honor cf the new Governer en inauguration day. He says that he will discharge any attache of his office who absents himself en that occasion. I , The Sheriff's ostensible rearms are i t commendable, but aie t'-.cy h:s real rea sons? Perhaps he has read the os-ay en the ted hat by the late Charles Dud ley Warner. A quiet, retiring woman succumbed te the charm of a red hat in a milliner's window and bought it. As it did net match her usual costume, she had te get a new gown. She looked in the mirror and was se pleased with her self that she decided she must go out te let the world see hew charming a woman could be. In the course of time sve was changed into ene of the gayest butter flies in town, all en account of the led hat. Spats, introduced into the Sheriff's office, would be demeralising te the feive. They would inc.itably be follewe 1 iy white edging", en the vests, by flowers in the buttonhole and by ether fri'.o'i fri'.e'i ties. The deputies would then attempt te live up or down te tl.cir r.-w costume, and the husky nun would bcome dandies incapable of functioning as proper and dignified officers of the law. If Mr. Vare will give serious thought fn ,,, .ti r '.. u .....i ..- ,:,.,.. ! . . .,.., Ui cj.uus .. . ,lh.,y , bu uuuimuii ins prej; seu paraue anu j allow the little officeholders te keep frr 1 te uniform them for a politician lie'.i- day. i INCOME-TAX SENSE THE last installment of income-tax j payment l'vr 1921 is due today. The first payment of the tax en incomes of i the .current year will net be due until j March 15. There is no escaping the j heavy surtaxes of the present law en last year's incomes. Secretary Mellen has recemmen le 1 a radical reduction of these suitax-s, in the interest et national pros- erity. There is time for Congress te act befove the tax en thu jear'd incomes niuat be paid. It ought te net, for the surtaxes are Im'efensible en nny sound economic theory. They were levied, in the fust place, in order te mulct the lich for the benefit of the peer, but they have bsnn handed en te the people of lesser means by the men with large incomes. The effect of the law has been te make th" men with big incomes tax collectors for the Government. But it has had nnother effect also, for H fcs forced capital te seek investment In tax-exempt securities of the States and their subdivisions where under an .u.V,. "V. cquitnble system it would hnve sought investment in private industry. Tlie Secretary of the Treasury thinks this evil could he cured if Congress were empowered te tax the bend' of the States and municipalities. Hut the sim plest way te cure it it te re.'u.e t'.ie Federal t.xc i' te a reasonable fiRiire. Thru the c.ipila'i.st-. who object te pav ing te the Cevcinirrnt from 25 te "") per cent of their incomes would invest their surplus in the secuiitie-? of private corporation and pay the reasonable tax. The corporations would be able te ex pand and the resultant increase in busi ness would yiil! taxes that would mere than offset the losses resulting from the abolition of the orfiiatery surtaxes.

The proper kind of attack upon the Klan comes tinin the groups for whose protection it professes te be organized It is up te the representative men in the.-e groups te point cut that the pur pose and the methods of the Klan are un-Ameiican and subversive of the prin eipks at the foundation of American insi!tiitie!is. Therefore, when representative clergy m n of the Paptist, Piesbyteiian, 1 irl.rran, MithedL-t and Prctestnnl Ki'i..eipal fl. inches denounce the Klan, as they did m this: newspaper yesterday aftein en, a caivp.iiun of cnlightennienl has been started which must ultimately succeed. The Federal Constitution provides for the greatest libeity of religious opinion That liberty must be preserved if we a iv te escape an era of religious intoler ance. The right of a man of foreign birth te become a:i American rtizen is nls pr.'t cte-d under our laws.

II. I.euglirun. Mr. I.eiiglirnn was the lirst person te han dle successfully the ro-epetative system in the Plillndelphln-ClieMer district in the slilpbuilillng trades. "In these districts, Philadelphia and Chester," said Mr. I.eiiglirnn, "the intro duction of the part-time system was, per hnps, the most interesting single educa tienal development of the Inst few years. The Idea was net original in these dis tricts, us it hnd already been used te a large extent In Cincinnati and ether places. Jlenencl.il te All "Se far as Philadelphia is concerned, the plan wns (neught uii as a suggestion bv Dr. Jamisen, of (iirard College, nnd Dr. f'heese lnan Ilerrick, pieMdent of the same col lege, and was refeired by them te the Merchants' Shipbuilding Company, of Ches ter. As 1 had had eenslderab'e experience in industrial educational lines. was a--slgnid te devilen the plan, which, it has been willingly admitted both by the school authorities nnd the corporation, has been MiecCHsful and beneficial te the student, the school and the corpeuit'on. "While it is my purpose te discuss the merits and edvantages nf the ro-epeiathe MStem, n brief rei Itnl of the methods which hi ought such benctiiinl results mu.v net be out of place. "The main purpose of introducing the co-operative sjstciu in these districts wns te train young men in the shipbuilding trades. Thirty stiidentn were enrolled In the tlr-t group, and these were divided into two groups which alternated bi-weekly with eneh ether, llnch of two students worked en the tnme Jeb or In the miiip ernft, one being nt employment while the ether was In school. "When the time enme te ninke the shift se that the hev who had been in the school went te lb" job nnd the boy en the job went buck te the school, cndi for his two weeks period, tin' boy who had been in the hebeid would spend Sntuid'iy morning with the boy who bad Ineii nt cmplej incut, in order te get u line of the weik nnd make the transfer without in an way umhnniissing or blowing up the -job in hand. "The shop work of the student wns in ehnree of n foreman or lender who nsslgned the boys te the work. A specinl form wen supplied te rneh student, upon which bu wrote a ilallv report when he returned home, giving a luief deseilptien of the work upon which be was engaged, his experience and bis observations n guiding it. This dally report wns eensldertd very essential te the jiregie'-s of the studdit. ' "lie also was reiiiii-fd te explain the terms nnd tin- unions processes of the job upon which he was eiigagnl. and make brlet notes of r he information which he gained bv asking questions This r-rjinrt was then given te the supervisee in charge. He re viewed it, ceiiectnl it where necessary and had it tvpewrltten. Copies of the report were then sent te the fei email, the student and the authorities of the school from which the boy came. Ills Value in the Corporation "In addition te this the student also wns obliged te Mimmnrize lib. work for the period nt the close of eneh two weeks, which showed concretely just what hn had accom plished nnd his value tn the corporation. "This lepnrt method bad two distinct advantages one of these wns that the stu dent paid mere attention te the job in linnd when he teiilled lie was te pnss u hind of examination en what he had accomplished every two weeks, nnd the ether because it provided a record of his accomplishment nnd progress in the trade. "The rate of pay given the ntndentH wns, set nt tl Irty-three cents nn hour. This re mained nt the snme figure until the student lind graduated from the school and entered the employ of the corporation. He then wns rnted ns third or second class, according te tlie record which be hnd made while lincb r tratntni! nnd the resu't of the evnnilluitlen All of "e first group -thnt l, these lisie i as i1 ird-cluss cpinlilied ns second-class ine-chnni.-. mid then weie paid lie ixl-tlng rile of .IV "One of the iiie.t Important outcomes of this sjstem of industrial education Is t' future Which the training obtained will open up te the boys themselves.
