| WASHINGTON COMMENT. j i "Is this a private foight, or can anywan git in?" asked Pat "Shure, it's anywan's foight! Stan' by an' hit the first head ye see!" answered Mike. There are a lot of persons who hcver around waiting to hit the first head they see. If it's a new head, and they can make it really sore, they are sure of a little advertising from having hit it. Let some cne start an expedition into Patagonia to find an "extinct" animal, and some S. P. C. A. person objects. Let some one propose the Amalgamated Society of Short-Haired Girls, or the League for KneeLength Dresses, and a reformer or a barber will try to throw a monkeywrench into the machinery! So it is only what is to be expected, when the papers begin to give accounts of surgery which is new, that some "legislators" (Heaven save the mark!) begin to propose laws which will make it illegal to do "gland v surgery." It is only what is expected when some educator, who ought to know better than to consider that his knowledge qualifies him to speak on the "morals" of a question which is not a matter of morals buc of medicine, rushes into print to read into the ten commandments a prohibition of the use of a part of one man's body to repair another man's, or even the use of an animal body to repair a human frame! Skin grafting, blood transfusion, bone transplanting, are they, too, as well as gland transplanting, "wrong," oh, learned doctor? If you want a head hit in this delightful country of ours?which is truly delightful because it has so many kinds of people in it?all you have to do is start something new. You will find it no private fight; anyone who wants a name in the newspapers will use his inalienable right of free speech to tell the world what an atrocity you are to think that doing something which never was done before can be anything else but evil! There is seme agitation in this land of ours regarding our histories. The Knights of Columbus are busily engaged in getting up a history, which, presumably, will show this country to the world as it appears t through Catholic eyes. There are some few misguided /organizations which claim that certain histories in 'use in schools "are not fair to the HIIBhWMM IHBIWMMMMBMHI I.

They, in turn, write their own histories, and some odd statements meet the eye of the unbiased student when he pursues them. Some people have the idea, apparently, that history is a study which may be changed at will; that it is possible by legislative enactment to admit this or take away that fact from a history! History is the chronicle of that which was. If a thing happened, i happened If it didn't happen, it didn't happen Saying George Washington was an Eskimo wouldn't make him one; declaring that Pickett won or lost the battle of Gettysburg would neither add to nor detract from his true historical position What we need in this country is not more histories, but better histories; not sectarian, biased, organizaKnf UiefAVioc /?AWnilArl UUJ1 iUdtVilC^ UUt moiv.ivu vv...r..vM by historians, which shall tell the truth, and the use of which shall be mandatory in public schools benefiting under federal aid. What we need in this country is the Towner-Sterling bill to be passed, so we can, have a Department of Education, with a secretary in the president's cabinet, and histories for our schools, Catholic and Protestant, southern and northern, eastern and western, which teach the truth, only the truth, and nothing but the truth!
