In what? Well, the modist reparter doesn't like to tell, but it has leaked out that the ter rible calamity that was reported from the penitentiary last winter tiflcftr hawDened. In short, the woman prisoner, Mrs. Carlisle, who basely slandered herself to the detri ment of several male officials last winter now stands a living witness against herself as having, as it were, obtained goods under false pretenses. In short, her reported condition at that time is now proven almost beyond a doubt to have been a fake, a ruse, a bold sppeme ror liberty. : Top buggy for sale at Winnegar'sj i ai ml . meu 8dcu.

The following liurar program was rendered with eniciem-y and lucru 01 which any city ew hool wounl liud it hard to beat; "Rcritatioi ly Meouiu Humphrey, Ralph Btul , Bvrtha Coum. Harry Tower.

Frf d Yates in discussing "Dan ger Signals," said many young people only think of massing wealth. They strive and toil to accomplish this desire when by so doing they fail to observe and to enjoy the beauties of life every where surrounding them. He urged all tp secure at any cost a good common school education and then press on until a college education is secured. He in sisted that an education waa the birth right of every American citizen; that American methods, manners and cus toms were encircling the globe. His ad dress was full of inspiration, good thoughts and excellent suggestions for the rising generation. ' Miss Foshay in discussing, "Does the state coarse of study meet the condi tions of coantry schools?" thought tfiat it did not. She pointed out the many a stances to support this. She thought the pupils should be better sight readers j and should learn how to study. Sop't Den man, while admitting that the state course did not meet every requirement, said it was doing a preat work in eystem izing the work, thereby elevating the work of " country schools. He . thought that irregular attendance, short term of school, multiplicity of recitations, lack of familiarity on part of many teacheis and lack of- support from districts boards was to blame in a great measure tor some of the troubles arising. . ; ; ''Should the child be encouraged to tell tales but of school ?'' brought out a warm discussion and a diversity of - ideas. Mrs. DuMullin thought parents should know what is going on in school. The quiet talks between child and parent were indeed beneficial. Miss Mary Dun lap thought it a dangerous thing to he permitted. " Pupils are apt to tell the story in an entirely different light from which it occurred. Parents should visit school and investigate for themselves. Mr. L. N. Edwards read a fine. paper which received the-uu07?ement of all who heard it, Mr. H. T. Bristow thought children should be encouraged to tell what impressed them in school Let little things pass unnoticed, but give attention to important things; .Mr. M, M. Waltz, W. Belknap an4 Rev. Skid more joined in the discussien. "Our duty when trouble arises ia the scboI,,r was introduced by ' Mr. J. H. Edwards. He said "Be sure a thingps worthy of attention before acting;' hear the story from child but be sure and hold your . peace.'' Have a talk with the teacher as soon as possible.. Try to pre vent trouble before it comes. Mr. Earl Brown said, if corporal punishment is necessary be ' sure and use the hazel. In so doing he Aim and deliberate, im pressing the child that the punishment ii enly for his good. Enforce the laws, and rules concerning the same; impress the unruly parent .with the good work her child is doing and endeavor to show her that he excells his fellow pupil. Rsbert Kyle said, the parent should stand by teacher first, last and always. First know your duty, tbeu have back bone enough to act. Wilbur Starr said, first train the child at home. .Impress the child with the idea that the teacher is in place of the parent. Proper train ing at home will do "much to help the teacher in her troubles. When trouble arises, enforce the laws and rules govern-, ing same. , ; Mr. M. M- Waltz in discussing "Duty of state to ' common schools," thought the state should be more loyal to the common schools. - While he did not op pose higher institutions of learning re ceiving state'help, yet tLis should not be done to the sacrifice and injury of com. mon schools. . He showed by figures the comparative help that each received from the state. No tax is .paid' that effects the welfare c-L the home more than than that of school. The wonder ful spreading of American industries in foreign lands was due to universal edu cation. The crying need of the hour is better provisions for schools, better sal aries for teachers. The law should make a belief iu God a requirement to secur ing a certificate.. The subject VWhat Ihould the school do for our gitls?". Was ably presented by two excellent paper. Mrs. E. H. Bel lman said if a na ion ia to become irreat. it must av grea w.men, great mothers. Te ch-irs thould dj iu rvery way compe- tent. Our girls' need a teacher who is strong mentally and morally. Mrs. Silas O. Starr thought the girls should be kept little girls as long as possible. Character formation ia an important mission of theschool. If the . teacher desires to influence the little girl she must love her; lead her on with lore and sympathy.
