Hill Buldlr.: « WE know of a public school Wa'an who teaches French am' wlto ha* jd* Riven one of her classes an examina tion has herself examined the! papers — forty of 'em — ami markei each Individual puper. all in the spun of a 40-minulc hour. In other w'orjl* a, test that was just about worthies, because the 40 pupils only hail 20 ol the 40 minutes in which to show what they had actually learned in the preceding month. There was no need ol this senseless speed because the teacher is- expected to go over the examination papers at the conclusion of the fire-hour rrcitatioty 'period, savs an exchange. ' The explanation, of course, is that the young woman was merely laiy — didn't want to work after the regular school period — and carelessly indifferent to her high duty. I' is simply amazing how this twinhelried microbe of inefficiency and laziness has spread over America in this last decade. It- has invaded all classes — not everybody, but great masses of people. Millions haven't the slightest pride In the thing they are doing in life. All they care is to drag grudgingly and stupidly through a routine of alleged brain or hand labor for a few hours a day and draw as much pay /or it at the end of the week as they can make the higher-up. "guys" hand oyer. This vice has never been bitten very deeply into the people of the country districts but it is epidemic ami rampant in all our cities. The fanner has 'suffered deflation to the hilt The mass of the city people has resisted it successfully so far, at the same time mending their ways not a bit. We wish hard times for nobody but it" loks very much as if nothing less tfcan real poverty will cure the dty masses of the depravity represented by that French teacher. Let's thoroughly understand that indifference is mediocrity and mediocrity is bankruptcy. God will that the nation escape that! WHAT good Is there in any plan that breaks down under the very con- : ditions it was called up to face? In every single phase of life in this living world plans are adopted only for the purpose of making the conditions of the matter a hand better. When they don't they are swiftly thrown into the discard. Lenine, in admitting the utter failure of Communism in Russia, blames the failure on the eondithmsis had to face. Out of his own mouth, therefore, he admitted that the plan called communism Is no good — therefore, an useless, dead one. Shovel in the dirt, men! 4 id

Qf it did not, there is almost no question, | lat that the Public Utility Commission j would ofder It done if it was shown 0f what large traffic there is over this h- n"rin.

En route to Ocean [City passengers are compelled to j at i crow,l w'tb their haggugg in trolley ! rare already filled with passengersi 4r j from Atlantic City.. During the sum- - r_ mer a majority are often forced to stand the remainder of their journey. n. i On the returp trip to Philadelphia the 1(j electric trains from Atlantic City are in crou'1'^ when they reach Pleasantjj ville, and often passengers from ,( Ocean City stand all the way to Caro- , den. This could all be saved by run,y ning a through ear. * TWENTY YEARS AGO Taken from the Files of the Sentinel November 28. 1901 Several faucets buiuted as a result! IR of the freeze last week.
