F our- Term School
ar-round-school, already established in some places, is
talked of more and more as a better adjustment of school terms
than the present system involving the long summer vacation. Edu-
cators believe, and practice appears to support their theory, that
the summer vacation is “an archaic idea which was in good form
when agriculture was the main occupation and required the assist-
ance of children in harvesfing,” and that it does not meet needs
today.
The proposed system Would div
practically equal terms, with short vacations suitably arranged for.
A pupil could attend school all four terms, if his parents wished
and his health permitted, thus finishing his elementary and secondary
school education in fewer years than at present. Or he could take
one of the terms as a long vacation if that suited family plans
better. A teacher could teach the year ’round one year, if she
chose, and choose more, freely her period for travelling and advanced
study instead of being limited to the summer vacation or to special
leaves of absence.
The school house which meets up-to-date scientific and hygienic
requirements is a wholesome place for the child. \Vith a proper
amount of recreation provided in the school curriculum, it is just as
good for his health to be in school all through the year to be playing
in the streets for three months every year.
The other arguments, that the school plant should not be idle
three months a year, that the four-term plan would reduce the cost
of education, and that the educational program can beanore sanely
\lanned this way, all deserve consideration.

Eight Hours For Women
In South Dakota there are women protesting against the pro-
posed law which provides that women in industry shall not work-
more than eight hours. Their argument is that this is unfair to
women because it will result in many of them being replaced by
men and boys for whom there is no such limit. ‘
Even if this is true, it is not necessarily a sound argument
against the measure, in spite of the similar stand taken by the
National \Voman’s party for equal rights of the sexes. It might
be a very good thing to have some of the long-hour jobs now held
herein are also reserved.

by women turned over to males, who do not have to combine heavy
industrial work with the equally heavy work of mothering the race.
Moreover, the Sioux City Tribune says, “It appears that most.
of the women protesting are not working women.” The working:
women may be even more interested than men have been in having
their working hours out down, because women nearly always have
something to do with the rest of their time.
Town Planning Grows
City planning includes two lines of preparation for the city’s
future growth. One involves provisions for parks, streets, public
places and public buildings, so that these will be in the right places
and adequate for future needs. The other line, known as “zoning,”
involves regulation by ordinance of the use of land privately owned.
Zoning dictates the height, area and use of buildings in specific
sections of a city, so that every landowner may be protected from
impairment of his share of light and access, and so that none may'
be made to suficr unavoidably from ofiensivc smells, noises or
sights. Zoning thus would protect a residence section from the
encroachments of manufacturing concerns.
There is now a national conference of city planning, carrying
ational publicity and able to advise'communitics wishing
on educ _ .
to do some local city planning before it is tee late. It is interesting}
to note how many large cities are doing as much planning and
zoning as are still possible to than,‘while an ever increasing number
of smaller towns are starting right by looking into the subject for.
' ‘hemselves early.

Private Capital For Big Waterway
A consulting engineer who has given many years to the study
of the proposed Great Lakes-St. Lawrence deep waterway says that
if the desired canals are not dug at national expense they will be
dug by private enterprise, because it is a good business venture.
In fact, he declares, there is "already in existence 9. business organ-
isation willing and able to swing the job, in behalf of big electrical,
aluminum and ammunition interests: _ 1
He estimates that the total cost of the dams, canals, water-
power plants, etc., would he $575,000,000, more than $100,000,000
in excess of the Panama Canal. Yet the-expense could be met, he‘
fiys, merely by the use and sale of the electric power developed,
' leaving the canal project free of carrying charges. He figures the
return from this source at, 10 to 12 per cent. of the building cost.
9 , If the plan is so tempting as a straight business proposition,
ready to go ahead with it, there can be
Kellegitimste objections, provided thework is done under federal '-
' ,. 'on and rate: charged the public for electric current are
“feats: public control. . ‘ .
Al matters stand, there is .little chance of public action on the
