Mr. J. P. Cook, chairman of the
board of trustee^ of the Jackson
Training School, made a remarkable
statement at Hendersonville last
week, w hlle addressing trie county
superintendents 4n the Interest of the
6chool. Our readers are aware that
this institution Is ^established fof t-he
young boys whose parents cannot or
do not control - them." The -courts
send young offend*/* here, and they
are trained for useful citizenship".""
The statement Mr. Cook made wan
that of 4 5 boys in the school, not a
single on*- is from the . country.
Eighty-two per cent of the people
of North Carolina live in the country,
and yet the 82 per cent have no rep
resentation in the school for bad
boy*. This does not mean that all the
bad boys are in the iovrfn=, but It docs
mean that there is mmrejrtnjhle wifoj
?- the town boy* wheiffat^omes to dis
cipline and training Van wltlr the
~ cojintry boy. ? Newton News.
This is but.^nother evidence of the
fact that town* Is no place to roar
boys for .frhe battle of 11 fa. ? H istor^
as a rule, tells of the country boy
making his maijt In the world. The
major portion of- the world's great
men first saw the light of day in the
country and this is so today. When
raised outside of town they are free
from all those demoralizing inftuen

- Ture tfoe assertion a soy netween. ute
ages of 10 and 15 learns more mean
ness in town in one night than he
does in the country in a lifetime. It
.is no uncommon thing to see boys of
0 and 7 years on our streets as late
as 12 oVIOck. "They should be at |
home. What the parents of tbe fu
ture generation can hope (or their
+ boy? is beyond us. Tbe country boy

things have a decided r^ange^ The
item fcom the Newton News is some
thing to think about.

* Our sympathy, after Inclining first |
one way and then the other, is flnany
settling down on the Bide of Dr.
Cook In this Polar controversy.
The Commander's conduct ban
been grasping and Indelicate, both In
his disposal of hi* story and In his
method of questioning Dr. Cook's
prior claim, and nine persons out of
ten are heartily supporting the latter
In consequence. Peary has spoiled
his own game, and unless be can
make good the assertion that Cook Js
an lm poster, the Commander will be
ft badly discredited man.
There will never be another hang
