* 'EI)ITORIAL COMIENT * * Son and His Coach in a few weeks tens of thousands of yXarcats in all parts of the country 'will enter their sons in college for the appnroaching session. They unques tionably expect, have a right to expect, that these boys will 'be subjected by the university authorities to sane, cle vating Iniluences. And so far as con cerns the character of the men under 'whom they must work in the class iooms, this ex)ectation will not be dis appointed. The teaching staffs of the American un'"ersities, with rare ex ceptions, consist of men and women of high standards and correct ideals. Less universally can this be said of the coaches who aro placed in charge of the athletic teans. Some, indeed 'many, behave themselves as conforms with university duty. Others are en '4irely unsuited for the task of train ing impressionable youths of the col lego age. Yet the influence of the athletic coach upon the mind and ideals of those under his charge is far greater than that -gained through classroom instructor. So ,tronltous has become intercol legiate athletic competition that, in the desire to win, the larger aspect of moral training Is often lost sight of.

Accept Only the Genuline. teams, the methods he pursues are only too often overlooked. The parent does not often make very careful in vestigation as to the coaches und'er whom bis son iwould have to serve. ,What if he did? If he discovered that they instructed their charges in un derhand tricks, if they 'insisted that it was legitimate to break the rules provided .the umpire was deceived, if they countenanced Billingsgate, in a word, if their influence tended to de grade rather than to elevate, he might well transfer the boy to some other institution. , By so doing, the parents not only would protect his own son, but he would do much to protect other young men as 'well, for when it is known that the methods of certain coaches are driving good material to rival colleges their services 'will no longer :be in demand.--New York Sun. To College Now-Or Laterl The college years for young men and women are from 17 to 22. The excep tions are numerous; many a precocious youth graduates at 19 or 20 and many lanother, lacking the means to ente(r college early, must finish his couirse at. a greater age. The average is prepared at 17 or IS and is -graduated in four yea rs. The young man who must Iostpone the completion of his college course until Ie is '21 or 25 loses . year or two from his life's work.' Thus the young man or oinan who is to have an education and is capable of taking it and is kept out of college one or more of the usual college years is subjected to a grievous penalty. The 19th year of the college student is, for college purposes, worth twice as much as the 2-ith year. The 24th year should be devoted to reaping the harvest from the work done in the 19th or 20th. Be sides, the youth is 'better fitted than the adult to perform the tasks of col loge. 'I'he youth is the better learner, 'as a rule. If the nind of a youth o0f 19 rests a year, that rest is likely to in volve a degree of mental stagnation and loss of vigor. To these things edu cators universally agree. None would say that entrance to colloge can 'bc postponed until the student is 20 or 21 o iwithout entailing a severe loss to him ' The colleges of South Carolina, foi men and women, -will reopen -withir s the next six weeks and there is de 1I pression over the land. There are som4 parents who, having long cherished thi e purpose to send their son or daughte a to college, will find it impossible to I so and to those one may say nothing - They are .perhaps not a large numbei Advice can not help them. Another class, not abandoning th purpose to give their children a col loge edlucation, will be sorely tempi ed to postpone entering them anothe year in the hope that "times 'will 1 better." They should not yield to th telptat ion. They should have in min that they can not deprive their daugli ter or son noiv of college age of a col lege year at this time without, in th end, malcing the cost doule to then T'he 'parent may save -by 'postponelen b ut there will he no saving in the Ion run. The sacrifice, severe though Uhe to the plarent, iwill merely be shifl (ed to the younger shoulders to he er duired in the after years.

SKULL AiD FLATIRON COLLIDE IN YORK - York, Aug. . 28.-4When -a large smoothing iron wlolded by the strong arm of his irate wife and the skuli of John Kelly, negro, came into co*, lision the other night, it was 'the iron and not John's cranium th'at was dam ageU. True, John was temporarily' put hors du combat, bitt his skull 'was so unyielding -that the .weapon Iwas crack ed by the inpiact and 'he can now boast that he is the man who put the sad in the saldiron. The whys and 'wherefores of the row and concomItant domestic infe licitIes were aired before Judge Fred C. Black yesterday, it developing that Josephine Kelly, John's Iwife, is determined to abandon the role of clinging Vile 'and essay that of an up standing oak. "Dat ol' igger's too lazy to go wid me to night preachin', andl he don't 'low me to have no escort coming back,," she declared. "Last night lie tuk and rised a row iwid me as Ah got home. Ah took and struck him on de head wid my smoothin' iron an' dat nigger's head wiuz so hard dat it cracked my iron right in de middle. Ah's 'cided to stan' up for my rights at las', for wimmens kin vote now and is good as iens, dey is." John had brought the char'ge of as sault and ioattery against his wife, but as it ippeared thatl he was only tem porarily hurt, whereas the iron was .permanently damaged lie got out with the costs of the ease and a lecture by lagistrate Black, which was shared by his pugnacious half, that they dwell in peace.
