Our ears arc filled with rumors of
advancing armies in Africa and Asia,
but tho unnoted host of the youth of
our land moving through this autumn
weather up and down the streets to tha
public schools Is of more conseuuenco
to us at home than any army terrible
wllh banners that ever marched forth
to crimson victory or defeat.
Let the stubborn Dutchman hold
against England's encroachments
the dikes of his fatherland hold against
the Zuyder 7.te, let the hoary walls of
dotard China crumble like rotten Un
before the hot wrath of the allied
forces but the prowess of these foreign
armies is to us no more than Idle cloud-
play compared with the closer impinge-
ment of the child armies about us. Tha
destiny of these alien nations, however
picturesque in the perspective of his-
tory, touches us feebly in comparison
with the destiny of this Yisirig republic
of ours.
These little people with the "shining
morning face," trudging to the kinder-
garten, these lads und maids hurrying
to tho high school, looking forward
with eager ambitions to the battle of
life, and all the little rollicking, care-
free naughty ones, with the little sad-
eyed. weary, eajdy old ones in between,
are to be the men and women of the
first half of the century coming.

LOCAL MARKETS.
They will be the army of occupation
camped beside our thresholds or
gravestones. It behooves us to equip
them well for the day of domain, to
be sure that In every way they are put
in possession of themselves before they
take possession of the patton.
All virtues in tho last analysis spell
but self-mostory. Prudence, Justice,
temperance, fortitude all resolve into
this one precept, "Conquer thyself."
The schools and the teachers are our
reliance. Should we not see to it that,
regardless of politics, of pull, of any
qualification but kindliness of disposi-
tion. nobility of character and fulness
of mud. these stewards are chosen for
their solemn and delicate labor? Let
the possession of culture and honor and
loving-kindness of heart be assured
In our teaohlngj/orce. and then let ua
make sure that the teachers are given
a chance.
Serenity of spirit, coming from as-
surance of work to do and no care for
the morrow, gives the mood for the
best work for to-day. Yet there is no
worker in the community whose hard-
earned wage is paid no reluctantly, is
so lightly he^d back, is so liable to
fluctuation, as' that.of the teacher. As
a matter of Justice, no money can re-
compense for that most Intimate ser-
vice of love next to the parents', that
impact of spirit upon spirit that is re-
quired of the teacher.
With our children In their tender
:hool years, as with the faithful at
Mecca, everything counts seven-fold.
Lit us be sure that the teachers, who
a special providence to them, are
n peace of mind and abundance of
every necessary wherewith to be en-
abled to do their best work
live the children room to breathe
and work and play, and put about
them all thingB beautiful to impress
their virginal imaginations—pictures
and cast:* and flowers, and old sweet
pongs and some daily dole of the
world's best thought in Its loveliest
form of literature.

are always being dressed in new s-ir-
mcnts; but whatever the reason, the
fact remains that we are as delighted
to-day with slelght-of-hand l ricks.
Juggling performances, and displays of
physical endurance as were our ances-
tors of a couple of thousand years ago.
But nothing mediocre in this line can
survive to-iluy, and he who is tu pro-
vide a twenty minutes' entertainment
that shall not be productive of a sense
of depression ere It has well begun
must indeed be clever, and prepared to
show us something that cannot be done
equally well by any other person who
has undertaken this means of making
a living.
A first water juggler's sense of equil-
ibrium Is only equalled by his physical
strength. He can Juggle with any-
thing from, one might almost say. u
needle to a railway engine, and foi
that matter, with both of them at once
notwithstanding the disparity betweef
their weights.
WONDERFUL FEATS.
A clever Juggling trick is performed
with two cigars and a elgar holder.
The holder is sent whirling through
space to fall, as it should, between ifct
lips of the Juggler, but ere It has fin-
ished its flight a cigar Is in Its wake,
and as naturally as if placed there,
drops Into the tube of the cigar holder.
In a moment It Is snatched out to make
way for the other cigar. It sounds
easy, but try it. Also try juggling with
a cigar -holder, a cigar and a limited
vesta. Having caught the holder In
the lips, catch the cigar in th. holder,
and then the match on the end of the
cigar, which It must light.
Feats requiring the combination
not a little strength, particularly
the teeth and mouth, and a fine se
of equilibrium, are those most admired
One would think that there was
nothing new to be done with the bicy-
cle on the stage, but some of the feats
performed by up-to-date artists are so
remarkable that they refutt- this idea
immediately. One is to take the ma-
chine apart apd play with the two
wheels and the frame in a light-heart-
ed sort of manner, throwing them
about as though they were but three
paper balls.
Another with the bicycle is far more
difficult, and calls for considerable ex-
ertion and some clever balancing. It
is to lift bicycle and rider with one
hand high above the head, and hold
them there while the cyclist Indulges
In a ride on nothing. In doing this the
Juggler grasps the top bar of the ma-
chine at the ypot essential to securing
perfect equilibrium, and bicycle and
man are hoisted safely enough—about
as awkward a fourteen stone weight as
It is possible to imagine.
From the bicycle th.' up-to-date ar-
tist usually turns to cannon balls-
Bound. solid shot of glittering steel-
handling them as though they were
only pills In weight. Still, they turn
the scale nt 28 pounds. What he can-
not do with a cannon bull in fhe way
of Juggling is not worth doing. In his
hands the ball appears to become a
thing imbued with life. He sends it
his body In every possible di-
rection with a seeming light touc h of
his hand, lie runs It round his neck
so speedily that it looks live a silver
collar.

In Japan what Is known as the magic
mirror is seen everywhere.
According to a Japanese myth, the
first magic mirror was Invented to
tempt the sun-goddess to come out of
a cave in which she had secreted her-
Belf.
On the back of the mirror are seen
birds, flowers, dragons and mythologi-
cal scenes, in raised designs.
When looked at dlr#tly, the real
mirror reflects the object in front of it
Just the same as an ordinary mirror
does, but when a bright light is re-
flected from its highly polished surface
on to a screen there ib at once depicted
on the screen a bright-lined Image of a
dark ground, representing the raised
designs on the back of the mirror.

So benign was the religious syste
the Indian that euch departmen
animal kingd m was provided with
little divinity to look after Its affaln
Thus the Spirit «>f the (Jreat Swa
looked after all swans, the Spirit of th
Great Turtle controlled all turtledon
and so on through the list, every kind
of an animal having its own protecting
spirit to guard its interests and punish
Its enemies. These dlvlnites—who were
under the control of the Great Spirit-
felt a gi eat Interest In the human race,
any any one of thom might become the
protecting genius of any particular
man.
Then, as a grand finale, he treats one
to a feat that smacks of real danger
He gives his assistant a few cannon
balls to throw at him. Then the Juc
glcr stands inclined towards the man,
watching for the coming of the mis-
sile. It comes—a quarter of a hun-
dredweight of hard steel, and he
catches It—not with his hands, that
would be nothing, hut with his head,
or rather at the back of his head in
the nape of the neck—catches it. and
hurls it off again to the other end of
the stage.
Another variation of this feat Is seen
when he throws the ball some six feet
In the air and it falls, not as everyone
seems to think, on tho top of his cra-
nium, scattering his brains, but in the
nape of his neck. It is an exciting few
seconds: up goes the ball, which he
watches In Its descent until It is
above him, then, as you shudd'
prospective smashed skull, a sharp In-
clination of the head and the bull is
home. And the place where it falls
not padded.

|VALUE OF SPORTS.3
Ily President Arthur D. Hadley of
Yale. ;j
The value of athletics when practised
in the right spirit is only equalled b>
their perniclousness when practised ir
the wrong spirit. They deserve cordla.
and enthusiastic support. The time oi
thought spent upon them, great as
may seem, is Justified by their educa-
tional Influence. But side by side wltt
this support and as part of It we must
,sparing condemnation of thf
whole spirit of professionalism. 1 dc
not refer to those grosser and more ob-
vious forms of professionalism which
college sentiment has already learned
to condemn. Nor do I chiefly refer to
the tutting by which intercollegiate
contests are accompanied, though this
is a great and real evil and does much
to bring other evils In Its train. I refer
to something more widespread, which
still remains as a menace to American
college athletics—the whole system of
regarding athletic achievement as a
sort of advertisement of one s prowess,
and of valuing success for Its own sak-
and for the sake of the honor which
cornea in achieving it by honorable
methods.
I know that the condition of the
athletic discipline in a college makes a
difference In Its attractiveness to a
large and desirable class of young men.
and rightly so. Whether a victory or
a sc ries of victories makes such a dif-
ference and increases the numbers that
attend the university I do not know,
and do not care to know. The man
who allows his mind to dwell on such
a question, if he is not tempted to vio-
late the ethics of amateur sport, is, at
mv rate, playing with temptation In a
dangerous and in a reprehensible way.
I am glad to believe that our colleges
and our nation as a whole are becom-
ing better able to understand the love
Df sport for Its own sake. Tho growth
of this spirit through thr. • generations
has relieved English universities of
some of the problems which to-day
confront us In America. To the growth
of this spirit we must trust ourselves
for itP solution here.
1 am heartily ready to co operate in
any attempts that other colleges may
make to lay down clear rules for the
practice of intercollegiate athletics,
because the absence of such co-opera-
,-ould be misunderstood and might
cause fdr suspicion where none
should exist. Hut 1 cannot conceal thu
fact that the majority of such rules
touch the surface of the diffi-
culty. afcd that so far as they distract
attention \fom thu moral element in
the case, whv h ls beyond the reach of
rules, they m^ prove a positive hin-
drance to progress. If we can enter
Into athletics for the love of honor In
the broadest sense cf the word, un-
mixed with the love of gain in any
sense, we may now and then lose a few
students, but w. shall grow better year
after year in all that makes for sound
university life.
The development of college athletics
has been of j;reat service in counter-
acting some of the dangerous tenden-
cies of th. day. Open to criticism as
athletics may be for their unnecessary
oxp* use. for the betting that goes on
In connection with them and for the
distorted views they encourage as to
the relative Importance of different
things of life, they yet have a place in
"ducatIon which is of overwhelming
importance. The physical training
which they Involve, good as it may be,
If but a small part or the benefit
achieved. The moral training Is great-
er. Where scores of men am working
hard f >r an honor and hundreds more
are Infected with their spirit, the moral
force "f such an emulation la not to bi
despised.
