The Amherst College faculty
have come out strongly against in­
tercollegiate sports, and are the
fir'8f -New
to take such a decided stand. Reso­
lutions were passed at a recent
meeting deploring the present de­
moralizing tendency of intercollegi­
ate athletic games, expressing the
conviction that the cost of these
games in time, money and energy
expended brings no compensating
advantage, and decreeing that the
college shall cease to take part in

ments have been fulfilled or after
the close of the present collegiate
year. The resolutions also express
their cordial approval of games and
athletic contests which take place
on the students’ home ground.
The telescope formerly belonging
to the observatory ol Mt. Holyoke
Seminary, a six-inch refractor, is
now on duty at the observatory of
the Huguenot Seminary at Well­
ington, South Africa. The astrono­
mer royal at Cape Town, Dr. Gill,
kindly attended to the setting up
of the instrument in its new home
and the American. astronomers,
headed by Prof. Newcomb, made
(heir station in the seminary
grounds. One of the Holyoke grad­
uates teaching there used the tele­
scope very successfully at the time
of the transit, making what was
considered a valuable observation.
The West Point, Va., Star says)
“ Williamsburg, once the seat of
the learning, wealth, fashion and
social position of Virginia, seems to
be fast going to decay. The college
has entirely gone down.
Last
year there was only one student-—
this year none. The president has-
a splendid residence just out of
town, and the buildings are quiet
and lonely looking, and seem to
hide within their walls much of
wisdom ; but this is all that is left
of the once proud seat of learning,
William and Mary College.”— Sei.

School Supervision.

.
The necessity for local supervis­
ion is so generally recognized by
city schoiiLjtutharitiefl. that sl-noat
every city in the country has its
superintendent. Thorough and ef­
ficient supervision has been the
chief agency in bringing the city
systems to their present standard.
But the necessity for the supervis-
" ion- ofungraded schoohr in town -
ships lias not been so generally re­
cognized.
If cities with the advantages of
well graded schools, of a long term
and of well-trained and experienc­
ed teachers, need supervision, and
derive so much benefit from it, that
ungraded schools in townships,
with all their disadvantages, can
not be expected to do. The argu­
ments in favor of supervision of
ungraded schools in townships are
unanswerable.
a
No prudent man would employ a
-get of workmen on a farm, or in the
shop, without devising some means
by which their work could be effi­
ciently supervised. Every mill
must have its manager, and every
railroad its superintendent.
In every business of life, as well
as in every department of govern­
ment, there must be systematic or­
ganization of labor, with intelligent
supervision.
The highest purpose of ungraded
schools cannot be realized without
thorough supervision.— Journal oj

A one pound can of each powder w as taken, the total leavening power or volume in
each can calculated, the result being as indicated in the above diagram. This prac­
tical test for worth, by Prof. Schedler, only proves what every observant consumer of
Royal Baking l’owder knows bv experience, that, while it costs a few cents per ¡Sound
more than the ordinary kinds, it is far more economical, and, besides uffords the ad­
vantage of better work.
A single trial of the Royal Baking Powder will convince any fair minded person
of these facts.
