COOS RAY SCHOOLS.
The schools of Coos Cay are devel
oping Into a system of which the
citizens will sometime have a right
to be proud. It cannot be said, how
ever, that they are in advance of the
needs of tho locality or that they
have made any special arrangements
as yet to receive the pupils who are
likely to seek their advantages next
year. North Bend, it is true, will
have its new school with its higher
grades at Bangor, and Marshfleld
will have its high school In South
Marshfleld. So far so good. It is
not so much the buildings which are
needed as a proper equipment, a
competent, up-to-date corps of teach
ers, and sufficient funds to pay such
salaries as will procure such teach
ers. Except at Marshfleld and North
Bend there is no high school within
sixty miles of the Bay and these are
the only high schools in the vicinity
of a population of 20,000 people
such being the estimate of the pres
ent census of Coos and Curry coun
ties. Competent teachers are necessary
to the success of any school assum
ing to supply an academic education.
By competency is meant the ability
to interest the pupil and impart to
him or her the training and learn
ing which schools are established to
supply. The teacher who is not con
scientious and does not do his or
her work properly is not only a cheap
servant but deceives himself or her
self if ho or she believes the children
do not discover it. Failure to inter
est a child of ordinary intelligence
In the school work, more especially
in the primary and grammar grades,
Is tho fault of the teacher in nearly
ovory instance. Falluro to train a
child to pass a given grade in a sin
gle school year unless tho child is
below ordinary intelligence Is near
ly always tho teacher's fault. Indif
ference, inattention to the pupils
needs, injustice in little things,
favoritism, lrrltablencss are faults
in a teacher which may retard tho
educational work seriously and In
variably produce similar faults in
the pupil. Tlieso faults may bo ex
cusable in tho individual, but not in
a teacher. A teacher who has them
is not entitled to a good salary, but
a teacher who does not have them
and who does good work on a small
salary, is certainly entitled to have
tho salary Increased. If such a
teacher Is incapablo of interesting a
pupil of ordinary intelligence in tho
grade work and lets tho child waste
two years or one year's work, that
teacher is not up to the standard.
A high school at Marshfleld ought
to bo a drawing card for tills city.
If tho peoplo would lako prido In
having a well-equipped school with
n corps of competent teachers thero
is no reason why tho peoplo of this
county nnd of Curry county should
not send their children to such
schools and make their homes hero
to take advantage of tho opportunity.
A third rnto high school will bo a
falluro and it woro better to have
none if not tho best. Nobody, not
evon homo peoplo, caro to oncourago
an inferior high school and many
who would prefer to remain at Coos
Bay will go elsowhoro if tho educa
tional advantages aro not suflleiont.
Indeed, they havo dono so. It has
boon claimed by sonio that Marsh
flold does not need a high school lio
causo tho present conrso its but slen
derly patronized. Tho fact that tho
course- is deficient is responsible for
tho failure and thnt dollcloncy is not
tho fault of tho principal but of tho
narrow environment in which ho is
forced to work.

The Smoker's Sad Lot.
The man who smokes 10-cent cigars
Or two-fers, stogies, or a pipe,
Who puffs inside the smoking cars
The smokestack's human prototype
(Perhaps that simile's not right,
But "pipe" has none too many
rhymes)
Is apt to hear this day or night
Till through his memory It chimes;
"You smoke too much."
If he complains about his health
And says that his digestion's bad,
They drop the hint on him by stealth
And for the opening aro glad.
If he observes that times are hard
And that he cannot save enough,
With this remark thy'll interlard
His constant rhythmic draw and
puff;
"You smoke too much."
It gets so when he misses trains,
Or buys a suit that doesn't fit,
Or when his taste for drama wanes,
Or when he shows a caustic wit,
Or when his hair is falling out,
Or when his teeth begin to ache,
Some critic then Is sure to shout
And this remark is what he'll
make:
"You smoke too much."
No matter what the poor man does,
No matter what he doesn't do,
No matter what the poor man was,
Nor what hard luck he struggles
through;
If ho should have ingrowing nails,
Or if his voice in singing fails,
Somebody else is sure to speak:
"You smoke too much."

And looked all to tho Bood;
Bo nlnln It was thnt o'en tho blind
Could seo Just whero I stood;
It seemed as clear as open da
Without n mist or fog,
When suddenly, llko any Jay,
I went nnd slipped a cog.
It makes n fellow nwful soro
To be about to land,
To know tho mutter to the coro
And feel that In his hand
IIo holds tho Barnes, as easy his
.As rollhiB off n log,
And then to go nnd queer tho biz
By letting slip a cog.
