THE CHAMPION SCHOOL TEACHER.
In a neighboring county there have
been recently some complaints about
the inefficiency of a teacher in a pub
lic school, named Weaver, and a short
time ago the directors, having col
lected some facts concerning his
method or instruction, summoned
him before them, and the president
examined Weaver in reference to the
matter. He said:
"Mr. Weaver, the board is not sat
isfied entirely with your way of im
parting instruction to the youthful
mind, and we called you before us to
day to ascertain what the general
drift of your purpose was on certain
occasions that have come under our
notice, when you have been giving
the boys what you seem to have con
sidered useful information upon a
variety of topics. For instance, Mr.
Weaver, in teaching the history class,
we feel compelled to take exceptions
to your views, when you assert that
Benjamin Franklin was shot at the
battle of Agiucourt, and that Nebu
chadnezzar was King of Italy, and
played the fiddle while Quebec was
burning. You may possibly have
Inter information upon these topics
than has reached the rest of us, but
the community is prejudiced against
these views, and they make you un
popular." "I don't recollect saying that," said
Weaver, "but just as likely as not I
may have said Agincourt instead of
Waterloo and got Nebuchadnezzar
mixed up with William the Con
quoror. I was sick that day and my
mind didn't work right, somehow."
"And besides. Mr. Weaver, we feel
as if we ought to direct your atten
tion to the fact that you were wrong
when you instructed the class in
grammar that Martin Van Buren is
an adverb and that the word 'hungry'
is a personal pronoun. These mis
takes are serious enough, but when
you flogged a scholar because he in
sisted that bucolic' was not an in
transitive preposition and that it did
not represent a species of stomach
ache, it seems to the board that you
went a little to Tar.
"It w:isn't for that I whipped him,"
said Mr. Weaver; "it was because he
put a pin in my chair. I was only in
fun about those things. I knew well
enough that Martin Van Huron was
an adjective."
'Well, sir, that may or may not be
a satisfactory explanation. But the
board would be glad to know your
authority for the statement that
Garibaldi was a Saracen who fought
against the Crusaders; and that he
received his name from the fact that
he was bald-headed? You see the
parents of the children complain
aboutthis kind of thing. They don't
like it They say it poisons the
lumds of the little ones, and it makes
parents mad."
"I'm sorry," replied Weaver, "but
I hold those views conscientiously,
and I'm going to slick to them."
"But such a theory will hardly avail
to explain why you asserted to the
class in arithmetic that vulgar frac
tions are so called because only black
guards used them, and why you made
Mr. Coyle's boy go down to the foot
for saying there was only two halves
to an apple. The community is in
dignant at these things, sir, and when
they learn that you taught those lit
tle innocents to spell 'dog,' d-a-w-g, I
am seriously afraid that public senti
ment will be strongly in favor of hav
ing recourse to violent measures.
Now you certainly know that there is
no respectable authority for spelling
the name of that useful animal
d-a-w-g. It is preposterous, It
shows a want of a proper sense of the
fitness of things, now don't it?"
"Well, maybe it does. But Til tell
you. Everybody spells dog the other
way, d-a-u-g, and it struck me that
it'd be a good idea for my scholars to
start out on a fresh, original basis; to
get up something new and startling
and refreshing in the dog line, and so
I threw d-a-w-g out as a kind of an
idea- -a mere suggestion, you under
stand, without iutending to insist
upon it. But I don't mind coming
down on that, I will give it to them
the old way if you insist upon it."
"Very well. But while wo are go
ing over the matter permit me to
urge that you could have had no re
spectable authority for telling the
school that Omaha is the capital of
Mexico and that the revolutionary war
began m 1812; and still less is there
any warrant for your assertion to the
pupils in history, that the middle
name of General Washington was
McG rath George McGrath Wash
ington. This sort of education of
the infant mind attracts attention
and excites remark. It brings ridi
cule upon the sacred name of the
Father of his country, and leads the
children astray, respecting the geo
graphical location of Omaha. Its
wrong sir all wrong; and the board
can't put up with it"
"Well, the way I come to do that,
I suppose," said Weaver, "was that I
used to know a man by the name of
Gtorge Washington McGrath, and I
must have confused bun with the
.other one. And as for Omaha, Til
bet you it's in Mexico, or Siam, or
Siberia, or some of them places; now
isn't it?"
"The board, Mr. Weaver, do not
think it worth while to pursue this
subject any further, but while we are
here, I may as well mention that in
that poem which you wrote as an ex
ample lor me ciass in jngiisn com
position, we find rather too much lev
ity for such a serious matter as the
education of children. It is not sole
ly that you make 'Mazeppa' rhyme
with 'pepper,' nor that you cause
'frolic' to rhyme with 'colic,' and
bowels, with vowels,' but when you
liring in 'heifer,' as a rhyme for
""zepnyr the board feels that you
have probably gone a little too far,
and that your usefulness as a guide
and instructor of youth is, perhaps.
ended. Wo think, Mr. Weaver, that
we had better ask you to resign. And
if you will permit me, I would offer
you in a inenuiy spine, uie sugges
tion that if you can procure perma
uent employment somewhere in ;
whitewashing establishment or as an
operator upon a saw-horse, perhaps
your intellectual guts may Jmd
higher and more cordial apprecia
tion."
They are looking for a new peda
gogue now, who is sounder on the
commonly received theories about
things.
Pacific- County The Willapah Valley.
"How long have you resided in this
valley?" a Seattle Herald reporter
asked of a sturdy representative of
the Willapah river on a recent visit to
that section.
"Nigh on to twenty years twenty
years coming Christmas."
"How is the soil in your vicinity ?"
"Can't be beat. Moved here from
Kentucky, and I reckon I have seen as
good soil as they make.'
Will it grow iotatoes and other
vegetables ?'
"Well, if you call GOO to 700 bushels
to the acre,it docs; and onions, car
rots, cabbage and the like are the
finest I ever saw."
"How docs it compare as a dairy
country with other sections you have
seen?"
"Now you are getting where we
live. Grass of fine quality in great
quantities is raised in this valley, and
often as high as two crops are raised
in one year. Cows do excellently,
and if a person understands the mak
ing of butter it can be made in this
county to greater advantage than in
any country I was ever in. Here is
James Maliis, living just above Wood
ard's Landing; he is doing quite a
butter business. He finds a ready
market for it at good prices. There
are a few others engaged in tho same
business, but it is not necessary to
mention them'r"
"Can you tell me why there is not
more produce exported from this sec
tion "
"Simply because our local consump
tion is so great. Take into consider
ation that five logging camps are run
ning on this river4 besides the saw
mill at South Bend, and the compar
atively small acreage under cultiva
tion, and you will see why it is we are
not able to ship any more produce.
On the other hand we are compelled
to import feed and sometimes hay for
local consumption But from all in
dications we are in hopes to have a
large increase over our-prescnt popu
lation on the river by another season.
People are becoming cognizant of cur
resources, and are finding their way
hither with a rapidity that is surpris
ing to us old stagers."
"Well, much obliged for your in
formation. Guess well go over and
see friend Smith."
"Don't be in a hurry, j'ouug man.
Perhaps I can tell you something
more. Come and take a ride up the
valley with me.",
"This place wo are passing now is
the Giesy farm. The place takes in
that prairie in tho rear, and contains
320 acres. It is conceded to be tho
finest in the valley. This section was
settled some twenty years ago by a
German colouv, and I think the
Giesys are the only ones remaining.
It was mostlv woods and wilderness
when they settled here, but with
their usual energy and perseverance
they succeeded in obtaining some as
fine farms as you will see in the
states. Fruit of even variety is
raised in abundance. The valley is
very rich in productiveness, and when
once cleared will make the garden
spot of Washington Territory. The
settlements only reach Fern Prairie
at the present time. James .bowler
started in there a year or so ago with
a logging camp, and now there aro
several families living in that neigh
borhood. The laud is susceptible of
being converted into farms. A good
wagon road the entire distance is the
outlet to Woodward's Landing, and
from there to South Bend, Oystor-
ville and other points on tho bay."
'About what is the number of acres
in the valley that could bo put under
cultivation during the coming season
and also the number of acres you
would have should the land be
cleared of standing timber?"
"Annroximatelv, 1 should sav that
we have not over 2,000 acres that
could be utilized to good advantage.
It tho land was all cleared there
would be fully 12,000 acres that could
be put under cultivation."
"Is the land hard to clear.
"No; it is comparatively easy. The
figures I have given you comprise the
land, strictly speaking, "within the
valley, and is covered with a growth
of vine maple, alder, which is conced
ed to be easier to clear than any other
land we have. The land bordering
the valley will also be made use of
some day in an agricultural sense,
but at present it is chiefly valuable
for the lieavy timber, consisting of
fir, spruce, hemlock and cedar. The
logging business, however, like every
thing else here, is in its infancy, but
for all that, the five camps on the
river put upwards of ten million feet
in the water this season."
"According to your estimation, how
long would it require a new settler to
clear up a home and raise enough
produce for his own use?"
"About one year on the average
claims, five or six acres can be made
ready for cultivation, and with that
amount of land cleared one can make
a good living. You see, so many per
sons have come here and settled who
had barely enough money to pay for
filing on "their land; some work will
be done, of course, to be able to hold
it, and they are compelled to seek
employment either in the logging
camps or in a sawmill during tho
summer season, and with the money
they have earned they make improve
ments on their claims in the winter
months, and finally, in a year or two,
they resort to the farm altogether.
The wages paid for all kinds of labor
are very high, especially in the log
ging camps.
