The Monmouth Normal and
the Excellent Work It Does
(Written for The Capital Journnl by
Queen C. Lynn.)
The movement of induBtrlal educa
tion la becoming general throughout
the V. S. and wo are beginning
to realize the truth of Dr. Clackston's
statement "It Is better to do things
than to read of other doing them."
Domestic science and Manual training
have been Introduced In the major
ity of our schools and Agricultural
education has been made compulsory
In the elementry schools of fourteen
states. In Oregon It Is not compul
sory but Burkett, Stevens and Hill's
Agriculture Is used as a toxt book
in reading In the upper grades, thus
giving the student some practical
knowledge along this line. Few teach
ers, however, stop here but supple
ment the text with the practical work
suggested in the course of study, and
many more would If they had the re
quisite knolwcdge. TlfiB agricultural
work In our schools Is essential be
cause, as Americans, wn have wasted
tho rich heritage we rocelved In our
fertile lunds. We have been content
with taking the products of the soil
hii ! putting nothing back, till now
wo realize that 'something must be
done to prevent tho Impoverishment
of the farming districts. Hence has
come an appeal to lessen this great
waste 'by Introducing agriculture In
the schools. The trouble confronting
us at present is the scarcity of teach
ers who are trained for this work.
The Page bill, Introduced by Senator
Page of Vormont, provides for the
appropriation of one million dollars
annually, to be used for the exten
sion of this phaso of education In
Normal schools. This bill is of great
Importance, for we look to the nor
mal schools for our teachers, who
must take up this work, Our super
intendent of public instruction, U K.
Alderman, has formulated plans by

which children are encouraged to
bring vegetables they have raised to
the fairs and receive prizes which
are given by different men of Ore
gon. These prizes, which consist of
Shetland ponies, calves, sheep, etc.,
as well as money remunerations, are
creating much excitement among the
children throughout the state, and
people are recognlzng the practical
good which must arise from the
awakened Interest In the resources of
our country. The Oregon Normal
school Is plunnlng to extend Its
course in agriculture throughout the
school year, giving practical work In
school gardening, thus fitting the
teacher for this phase of modern
education. Much has already been
accomplished In this line, the class
In agriculture having done actual
work In grafting and dairying. Gar
dening has been taken up In connec
tion with the training school and the
studentB have an opportunity to see
practical illustrations of the work
done.
Much interest bag been taken In
student affairs of the last few weeks,
not the least of which was the Tri
angular debute of the three literary
societies. The question debated was:
"Resolved, that American Municipal
ities Own and Control Their Water,
Light and Transportation Systems."
After the decision of the Judges was
rocelved, tho faculty, Judges and the
winning society, tho Vospertlnes,
were given a banquet by the Del
phlanB and Normals, the two losing
Bociotlos.

which was "The Cry of the Children,"
yaa well handled, receiving so much
favorable comment that we feel she
will yet crown the Oregon Normal
school with success.
The assembly periods this semes-
kor have been very entertaining as
well as profitable. Two members of
the faculty, Mr. Evenden and Mr. Os
tein, gave practical addresses. Mr.
Evenden's subject was, "The Psych
ology of Failure," and Mr. Ostein's,
"Orientation." The first member of
the senior class to appear in assem
bly was Miss Stark, whose oration,
"Art Education," was an Inspiration
to all and her appeal for the Intro
duction of the beautiful Into our
practical IIvcb was most helpful. Mr.
Seymour, superintendent of Polk
county schools, visited the normal re
cently, and expressed his interest in
what we are doing, and told us of the
interest of other schools In the work
of the Oregon Normal school. Mr.
Starr, secretary of the state tax com
mission, was a most interesting
speaker In assembly. He gave a
lucid explanation of the system of
taxation, Its laws and methods.
However the chapel time has not
been confined to the purely practical
and educational matters. The reli
gious side of life has been presented
to us by Reverend Gueffray, of the
Kvangellcnl church, who spoke on
"Success," and by Reverend Hilton,
of Forest Grove. Mr. Ilolton's sub
ject was "a Voice or an Echo." MP.
Darby, a vocalist who is assisting
Reverend Hilton in the revival ser
vices here, entertained the assembly
with two solos. Miss Elizabeth Fox,
btudent accrctary of the Y. W. C. A.,
visited the normal recently and
talked to the girls at the regular
meeting of the society. Several new
members were added to the associa
tion roll and a pleasant social hour
followed. A most Instructive talk on
ths effect of alcohol was given one
afternoon by Mrs. Scovllle, a repre
sentative of the W. C. T. U. From
this account of the various speakers
at the normal, It is evident that
every student has received something
In tho way of Inspiration or practi
cal knowledge.
The department of music under the
direction of Miss Harlan Is doing
splendid work In many ways. The
Glee club were guests of the teach
ers at Dallas, and sang at the Insti
tute which was In session there. The
students of the normal are planning
to give the mimical comedy, "Pina
fore," In June and al are working
hard to make this performance n
successful example of what musical
training can do. Miss Harlan has
not confined her Interest to the Glee
club and Normal orchestra, but she
has organized an orchestra from the
children In the training Bchool, which
entertained us In assembly one morn
ing, and won much praise and ad
miration for Its work.
The Lyceum course has been well
patronized by nil. We have hud two
conceits recently. The Dudly Duck
company gave a varied entertain
ment, calculated to please all, and
the Gainblo Concert company pre
sented n most excellent program.
The work of the violinist being es
pecially worthy of mention.
There has bei'a play as well as
work at the Oregon Normal school,
these past few weeks and tho social
functions have been most enjoyable.
In the way of phiy, was the hilarious
I farce whlcl the Juniors gave as their
.class program. These Juniors were
no respecters of persons, and stu
dents and faculty were caricatured to
the amusement of their friends. The
Normal society gave a dancing party
on the evening of Washington's birth
day and It was said to be the most
successful party of its kind, this
year. Two afternoons were made
pleasant by the meeting of the Entrc
Club club. Miss Itrentiin, the art
teacher, told us of the art galleries
of New York city at the Hi st of these
meetings, and one of Shakespeare's
historical plays, Henry VIII., was the
subject of the second.
That the functions of the Normal
school are always up to date was
evident last Saturday evening, when
the Delphian Literary society enter
lalneil the students and faculty at a
St. Patrick's parly. The decorations
of green and white paper festoons
and quantities of daffodils were as
beautiful as the entertainment was
unique. We were all taken for a
trip on the St. Patrick's Laughter
& Smiles railroad ami visited the
way stations, where special stunts
were given by different colleens and
gossoons. We visited the theater
and witnessed a photo production of
Macbeth, explained by Miss Panott.
The kissing of the lllarney Stone by
the gossoons was only equaled In In
terest by the delicious refreshments
which were served at the Irish ''Har
vey eating House."
The reader may plainly see that we
are a busy people at the Oregon Nor
mal, but all our "business" has Its
profitable aim and result.

AL Barnes' Auiiual Circus.
A novelty of any description Is thor
oughly appreciated, but more espe
cially so In the amusement line, of
which there are only a few. The one
that enjoys the distinction of possess
ing really more novelty and interest
ing features is Barnes' big three-ring
animal circus, which exhibits In Sa
lem under monster tents on Friday,
April 26. Ilarnes' big shows always
have something hew to present, and
this year is no exception to the rule.
In fact no other tented organization
In America has as many sensational
acts.
The press of California pronounces
names' circus the best ever In the
West, and their tents were packed In
all tho leading cities. In addition to
a number of special attractions, over
350 wild animal and domestic animals
from all parts of the world are pre
sented In sensational and thrilling
acts, under the direction of male and
female trainers In three rings, steel
arena and on elevated stages, all go
ing on at the same time. You'll see
lions ride horseback, sea lions that
play on musical instruments, play
football and do other funny stunts;
Persian leopards, tigers, lions, pumas,
jaguars drilled by lady trainers, per
forming wonderful tricks and unheard
of feats, that hold the audience spell
bound; Siamese elephants that display
human intelligence, which act alone
Is worth the price of admission. Over
150 ponies, dogs and monkeys lire
presented In new and novel acts.
The Barnes circus has a reputation
of being one of the brightest, clean
est and most sensational shows, and
gives the most enjoyable performance
ever seen.

BENEFIT ASSOCIATIONS
NOT IX INSURANCE CLASS
Assistant. Attorney-General Van
Winkle rendered an opinion today in
which he declares that mutual benefit
associations, which make a practice
of protecting with benefits such as
are Its members do not come under
tho provision of the fraternal associa
tion laws, nor general Insurance laws
of the state.
The kind of associations with re
gard to which ha was asked to fur
nish an opinion wob those taking In
employes of soriia certain company r.s
members for a certain fee, and In re
turn for that fee a certain per cent of
the wages drawn by the employe dur
ing the time he is ill is paid, and also
sick benefits.
In order to bring such an associa
tion within the general Insurance laws
says the assistant attorney-general,
It Is necessary for It to isBiie policies
which, In contemplation of lnw, it
does not."
