Those of the, leathers who hai nil Jcined tho ranks o; tha wedded during vaca tion p iod, uml v, h' will leach school thin year, are il-iKtlng their examin ation papers, ' brushing up" a llttlr on various 8iilJi'cti, fiid looking for warj the time -alien they will once more draw salaiy. New rules .'in; being studied and I'no iiii!p of the teachers Is natural ly leading thoso who are participat ing m tlm discussion of school mat tors to recall tne names of toucher ho have answered their final roll call during the last year. Among thi) oldest teachers, In point of ser vice and b'Bt known In Salem and vicinity who hnvo died within the last year, are Mlss Maria F. D'Arcy, a former teacher In tho Central Hchool, and Jnnii-s K. liuff, to whom many of tho present day business men of Saleni went to school at How ell Prairie, Macleay, Sllverton and other settlements In thU vicinity, Miss D'Arcy will be missed In the school room this year. She has cor rected the lemons of more than one Halem boy and girl whose children, In later years, alio alno taught. It la a well-known fact that one of the greatest ambitions of childhood Is a desire on the part of hoy ami girl allko'to be "Just like my teach er." and. In view of this fact, the actions, personal "habits, whether hereditary or cultivated, and charac teristics of most school teachers are vividly Impressed upon, the nilnils of scores of students. Many of tho ways of a teacher are. copied by thoso In her room. That It was necessary In the old days, however, to pursue methods -which would not prove popular If adopted by the student, of today Is aptly illustrated In a story told In connection with Mr. fluff's teaching ptrlod. Although possessed of n brilliant mind, James K. Huff was an eccen tric character. That he had peculiar ldeaa regarding religious matters, and that many of his characteristics and ways weie "unusual" la admit ted by all who were Intimately ac quainted with the old teacher. Incidents In conned Ion with the Chan's life have been related recently by several pronilmmt Halom citizens, anil these occurrences are repeated hern, with all due respect to the aged teacher, who has now ' pnsHcd to where, no ciitlclsins are recorded, and where all are Judged alike. , Considerably over 20 years ago present day methods, of discipline In the school room had not yet been adopted, and often the teachers were roughly handled by thn older stu dents, At this lime considerable dif ficulty had boon experienced by sev eral teachers a), a little school on Howell l'ralrle, near Salem. It Is said that one male teacher had been thrown bodily from Hie school room. Finally James K. HnlT was sent to take charge of the school at that place. Ho had heard of tho treat ment accorded other teachers, ami, In his own peculiar way, ho went well prepared. , According to a Salem man, who was a student at Howell 1'ralrle, Mr. Hurt walked Into the room on tho II rst morning, removed his hat and coat and advanced to tho teacher's desk. . Turning suddenly, It Is mild, ho drew a Howie knife from Us sheath, and, with u clever twist of tho wrist, drove the shining blade Into the wall directly back of the desk ho was to occupy. Then drawing a big revolv er from a belt at his waist, laid the Weapon on the table. "W will hnvo pence In this room today, boys," ho cooly remarked, as ho drew Ills chair from under Ihjo desk, And tho dove of peaco settled down over tho little school room on tho prairie. Discussing tho peculiar habits which are hoiiio times found coupled with an exceptionally brilliant mind, County Clerk Allen this morning re lated an Incident in connection with Mr. Huff's teaching period at a school Hear Bilverton, Mr. Allen's old home town. The school house jvns eight miles distant, said Mr. All"n, and Mr. Unit walked to and fro from Ills residence each di.y, llelug precise and .ys tematie in disposition, Mr. Huff at oi.ee proceeded to mark out a "bos lino' over which ho was determined 10 tnml to :md from the school house. So precise wi" ho in drawing the Imaginary rulilo lli.o that lio went to considerable nalir lo hive tho route mapped out, jut t us lio hud planned, regardless wf obstructions. U Is said lie ven removed tr s two feet In ill nmter which oh? meted the path he had dizain to Svrve i.s his '"way to a ..I i i . . f n mic )K1 ump. c VHtil y fn" ' r - ire r rfini " IT flTf.Vl if Ttwttte th h hotu 114. sc ho(d." All saplings, no matter how small, were removed, and tho old teacher consented to deviate from the chosen line for only ono barrier that was a houae. Hather than move the hoii8;, It is said, Mr. Buff changed his original plans for his rou'e a few feet, and steered clear of tho .house. Finally tiring or tne long wain, the old teacher lat'.T secured a bl- rycle, although he Is given credit for being an expert runner. It Is said he has accepted wagers on the prop osition that he could run to Silver (.'reek Falls and return by foot quick er than could a team and wagon. And he won Ida wagers.

Tho volume containing the reports of tho officers of the International Typographical I'nlon for the fiscal year ending wl'h May of 101 1, Is Just from the press. l'r.sid nt Lynch has this to Htiy as to the I'nlon Print ers' Home Hint magnificent Institu tion at Colorado Springs, erected and maintained by the International Typographical Union: Jtefercnce to tho report of the board of trustees of the Union Prlnt rs' Home will make clear the na ture of the Improvements that have been made to the Institution during the fiscal year. The partial comple tion of tho library addition by the erection of two additional stories, not including the interior finish, runs over tho fiscal year and well Into July. Tho boiler house was consid erably enlarged, two new hollers In stalled, and commod'ous sanitary and pleasant iiuarters provided for the male employes In the second Btory of tho heating plant and laundry build ing, and other n'"C(fssary Improve ments inailo In this connection. The library anmcx has boon completed, with the exception of finishing the Interior of tho upper stories. The total amount expended for the im provements mentioned has boon2,r, 000. A beautiful and adequate In stitution; has been further Improved, and In every way nil effort has been made to comply with the Intention of the mcmpcrHhlp In establishing the Printers' Union Home so thnt It shall bo a haven, of rost and cure for our aged members, and those afflict ed with disease. A barren hillside has been converted Into a garden spot, than which there Is nono more beautiful In this country. Future of the Institution. The time-has arrived, however, when tho futiiro of the Union Print ers' Homo must be taken Into more careful consideration. The old age pension policy adopted by the Inter national Typographical Union, and successful beyond our fondeot hopes, has within the past year affected the Union Printers' Home, In that our aged members nro not seeking the homo's bounty In the snmb degree that was true prior to the establish ment of tho old ago pension. Our older members prefer to draw the pension mid, remain nt home, with their friends and relatives. They are not. now a burden on their kin, and, In many Instances securing and accepting; light K'iplnynient, they are self-supporting. Kventually, in my Judgment, the old age pension will depopulate tho main building of the homo, which herntofore has been used for the housing of the older res idents, I bollevo that tho home has a new nnd greater career before It, and that It should and will be con verted Into a printers' sanatorium, where all the members of tho Inter national Union afflicted wit ll disease of whatever nature may Mud a home and it possible euro. Indeed, I would go further than this and establish an Institution where our members who nro exhausted and run down by the strenuous requirements of the com posing room of today may resort for a month or two or six months In or der to build up a shattered nervous and physical system so that they may continue nt their trade, useful mem bers of society and supporters of film lib's. Those who aro blessed with sulllclont of this world's goods yearly seek .watering places and summer re orts In order that there may be re cuperation of energy and ambition to 'meet the coming ordeals of the social season or business world. Why not, then, the Printers' Union Home, con verted Into a great sanatorium and rest-cure, where our enervated mem bers und find that surcease from toll and worrlineut that will Instill Into their systems energy and ambition, and add to tbolr years of usefulness. If this project Is ever made effective, then there will of necessity have to to an Increase ln tho per capita for tho support of tho home, for It Is a wl-ottanllshod fact that tho na flouts nt the homo cost much more to maintain than the aged and Indl gent residents. Under tho plan as outlined, tho homo fund should bear tho traveling expenses of tho patient to ami from tho Institution. Hut. whatever tho cost, the venture will be well worth undertaking, and will further redound to the glory and public laudation of the International Typographical union. That wo will be compelled to faco n now problem as to the home Is, I believe amply demonstrated by the facts that I have set forth. In the very near fu ture tho number of aged residents will bo reduced to a very few. Kveu with the changed policy suggested we can still care for such of the ai'd and superannuated as prefer the home to the peunlon. At this writing, thero are a numbiy of va cancies In tho main building, while the Funaiarlum Is nearly tilled. The Union Printers' Homo has been a great Institution, and I predict will be n still greater Institution, if It Is di" eloped along the lines that I have indicated.
