During the last week- he has not secured so many subscribers aa haa Miss Shannon, but tbey have aver aged for longer periods and therefore have entitled him to more votes, The plan of the contest allows a certain gain In -votes for every month's sub scription collected from th subscriber. Therefore, th contestant who induces one subscriber to pay for a year secures more votes than the contestant who in duces alx subscribers to phy for month each.': . .Thrive After Zntrodnotlom. The. number of subscribers secured. however, is an Indication of how much successful effort the contestant Is put ting forth. And The. Journal prefer many 'new subscribers for an average of mi c.

"We likewise believe In a varied training. -As Emerson says, "Each one can do his best th'ng easiest.' but spe cialising, we think, should generally be allowed only after discipline Snd ver satility hav been acquired by diversi fied study end practice. It Is crimi nal ' Injustice to the "intelligence and Inherent capabilities of th student for the teacher to tell him just how. to em phasise, Inflect, color and gesture a se lection, or, In other words, to do It Just as ths teacher does.
