Dr. Butler's Lecture.
Dr. Butler, of Salem, under the auspices
nf the Massasoit Success Club gave us a
magnificent talk on last Saturday night.
His subject "Your Pedigree, or Starting in
Life" was so admirably handled and
presented to us in RUch a forceful way that
the whole audience listened with rapt at
tention, and at the close vociferously ap.
plandod Tor more. Tlie faculty and pupils
of Hi dchool extend a hertv thank t the
Success Club who wre instri.nienial in
giving ns this 'treat. Coine again Dr. Butler,
chief and consulting engineer has not yet
decided whether to use overhead trolley
ground conduits, or storage batteries.
Which ever is found to be the most practi
cal and in line with the newest Inventions
will be adopted.
Chiloeco is to be made the big agricul
tural school of the country, and will soon
be turning nut good sized batches of jolly
larmers every year. That's right. There
is no trade or occupation iu ihe world that
can beat good honest farming and stock
raising. It in certainly the education that
the most of our Indian Btu lent should
be forced o accept, because fully three
fourths of them will oe obliged to fall hack
on their Mule farms or allotments for a liv
ing even if they huve acquired other trades.
We wish I he Chiloeco School much suc
cess In this practical and important under
taking. We also hope it will be the means
of causing our Indian boys and girls to look
up and reopect. the "hay seed" occupation,
