SYRACUSE, N. Jan. 28. Bishop F. D.

Huntington, speaking today upon tbe growth of the gum-cbewing habit among school teachers, notably those of Boston snd Chicago, said: "It Is an indefensible habit on every groundp and evidences bad manners. I con sider It one of tbe forms of deterioration of aoclety. There Is no Justification for It, and It discredits good breeding. Its continued use should be called a disqualification to any teacher. "Its unnatural action distorts the Jaws, and In time cannot but affect the looks of tho perpetual indulger." continued Bishop Huntington, adding, with a smile.

"I should tblnk that alone would be enough to deter any from Indulging In tbe habit. They aay It whitens tbe teeth, but I do not believe it. and I never heard from a medical standpoint that It waa good for any one. The Indefensible and lowbred habit of gum-cbewing seems to me to be on the increase. I do not remember It so much when I was young.

"An old man, I see many things that make 1 mo aad, but that I do not comment upon. It seems to me that today there ia a tendency to frivolity for the sake of amusement, al-though there are many points In which tho world Is better. Besides tbe Idle clasa, there Is a class of the honorably employed who plunge into amusement tha moment their duties are over. That Is not the way to make character. Character Is not made In public.

Solitude and thought are what do It. It la wboleaome to bo alone at times and quiet. "I tremble aometimea for tbo results of our home life. We have no family life, the members are so scattered. There Is no family circle.

It Is due somewhat to the way houses are heated now. There Is no hearth atone, no fireside to gather about. Those sacred terms do not mean what they used to. always have a fire," continued tha Bishop, as ho turned and looked contentedly at the bright blase dancing In the fireplace, "but very few do. It waa Hawthorne, I think, who aald that an officer at the head of a lino -of battle would get very little enthusiasm and heroism out of his men If, instead of snouting, 'Fight for your homes and your be said.
