registered cow has better chances of
being a high producer because she
is from known and selected ances
try, but that she is registered is not
alone enough to prove her a produc
tive cow—she must also be tested.
An instance of the lack of knowl
edge of a cow’s real production was
brought out when one of the dairy
men intended to enter only one of
his cows, but brought another
"along for company” to the first
registered
cow.

grade he had entered for competi

EAGERLY WAITS FOR
HOME TOWN WEEKLY
I read the daily paper—read the
state and foreign news—of the do
ings here and yonder and of leading
statesmen’s views. Read of wrecks
and fire and murder, baseball, poli
tics and crime, marriages and births
and dyings, all happenings of the
time. Read the whole edition over
from the first page to the last, news
and comments, facts and fancies;
things to come, things of the past.
Then aside I thrust that paper, for
it’s no more good to me; half the
things that I’ve read over soon my
memory will flee. Then I get the
home town weekly and with keen
and eager eye read the news it has
to tell me—news that's never dull
or dry. For the news that’s in that
paper tells of folks I know and love,
folks who are both friends an neigh
bors. folks whose goodness I can
prove. Tells of school and church
and college, lodge society and store,
town improvements, council’s do
ings, squibs and personals galore.
Having read this good town pa-
per—read and swelled myself with
pride—I crank up my ancient fliv-
ver and through town and country
ride. Far away sometimes it takes
me Into other towns and states,
where I may take notes and figures
and make civic estimates. Then re-
turing to my roof tree, call my nei
ghbors to my side, and declare "So
help me, Hannar. here I ever will
abide.”
And with each returning week
day eagerly 1 watch and vait for the
postman who is bringing the old
weekly to my gate.
Oh. I must have the great dailies,
magazines and trade reviews, but
the thing that makes me happy is

Co. held its second meeting of or
ganization early this week, at which

WHAT THE SCHOOLS AIM TO DO
(By Principal M. B. Signs)
The three objects of the modern
school system are to give the child
first, general education and men
tal training; second, to develop oc
cupational efficiency, and third, to
inculcate a sense of and ability to
perform the duties of civic respon
sibility. These all furnish power to
the children, and a fourth object
should be added that this power
may not be abused, namely, moral
character development, inculcating
the principles of virtue, truth, hon-
esty, industry, perseverence, relia-
bility, and a strong sense of duty.
The first and the last have long
been held up as the principal ob
jects of school work, but now the
modern school is adding and em
phasizing especial training in voca
tional subjects and practice, as well
as strong training in citizenship and
civic responsibility. It has become
recognized as the bounden duty of
school authorities to provide for
such training in the small towns
and rural communities, so that
children remote from the great cen
ters of learning may not suffer
thereby. When one stops to think
that only five per cent of pupils
ever get to college the other 95 per
rent are entitled to have the best
brought to their doors regardless of
a few cents or even dollars added
ax. Commerce,
to the Individual
agriculture, shop work, student
control of activities, cooking, sew-
Ing library practice, teacher train-
ing and similar subjects are now be-
ing recognized as the subjects which
should be added to the classical
curriculum to give students practi-
cal knowledge of vocations. The
Smith-Hughes act probably offers
the best opportunity for schools to
establish these lines of work, espe-
cially agriculture, shop work, and
home economics, for upon the pro-
vision of certain equipment and fa-
cilities by the district the govern-
ment will nay half the salary of the
instructor in the above subjects.
