THE WAUKEGAN GAZETTE ON
THE KENOSHA LUMBER
DEALERS.

The Waukeean Gazette of last week
saws: Elsewhere We pub lish price list
of the more common grades of lumber in
this market. The Kenosha dealers have
of late, made quite an effort 10 draw our
Lake county trade away from this point
and have perhaps succeeded TO o very
limited extent, IN so doing. From all
shat we can learn we judge that these
gentlemen have been in pretty bad con-
Sition financially, and, for the sake o.
obtaining cash, have sold some bills OF
lumber even below actual COST"
In the above there are three untruths
aud perhap ore truth inlerentially. 1t
IS not true that the Kenusha lumber deal
ers have, of late, made quite an eff1rt TO
draw Lake county trade away from
Waukegan, They have made no effort
except in engagement in their business
to sell lumber TO whoever buys of them.
They have not even advertised lunbe'
for sale
II is not true that the Kenosha dealers
are IN bad condition financially. They
are financially sound and free from en-
barrassment.
It is not true hat, for the sake OF
obtaining cash they have sold some bills
of lumber even below its actual cost
They have had !. fair profit on all lumber
,sld.
1t is true that Kenosha lumber deslers
save sold and are selling lumber &c
sitzeus of Lake county, and even to some
residing back of Waukegan. And TIL
arises from the general laws OF trade
rather than from any special effort OF The
dealers. Purchasers can suit them
-SslHes better as to price or quality Of
lanber, or both i. Kenosha than they
Can in Waukegan. So they buy of the
KcHosha dealers rather than of the
Waukegan dealers.
The price list OF lumber at Waukegan
referred to by and Ia theGaztte is higher
than the price of lumber in Kenosha
And when purchaser of Lake county Ms
well as others know they can suit them
selves, either as TO price or quality OF
lumber, better in Kenosha than they can
Ia Naukegan or other places. they will
buy their lumber of the Kenosha lum-
'~"r dealers.

Prof. Huxley's opinion that no
school system is worthy the name of
national, unless it creates great ed
vocational ladder, with one end in the
gutter and the other in the universe
ty appears to be gaining currency
here, as in England. Many Of the
states, Wisconsin among the num-
Der. are working in this direction,
the aim being to supply the missing
link between the common school. and
the college, by the establishment Of coun-
ty nigh schools. The great majority of
common school teachers have only q
common school education. The first eff
feet ofthe proposed plan should be 10 put
a higher education within their reach.

educational F.
rs TT RIGHT TO POISON
CHILDREN.

This is a startling questionable
1t is not more startling than the fact
that children are being poisoned in
our schools for the want of pure air.
In nearly all the schools visited this
winter the air OF the room has been
Observation-Disclosures acid so as to
render it unwholesome TO breathe.
Setting out with the established fact
that free, or what IS commonly called
pure, air contains for every thous-
and parts, very nearly four tentbs
of one part of carbonic acid.
and Analysing the air contained in
many of our school rooms we feel
sure that the examinations would re-
veal from four to eight times the
proper ratio Of carbonic acid. Mrs.
Weaver while investigating this
subject in some of the schools OF
London found in some rooms more
than thirteen times the proper
amount of carbonic acid.
Recent Investigations by DR.. En-
demann among the schools of New
York city showed the air of Elm
Street school to contain rs parts
carbonio acid to 10000 parts Of air,
ancth room i'll same building, 16
parts, another, 80 parts. Madison
Street school 7 times the proper
amount. While there is some de.
gree of excuse for such state of
things in New York city where
many Of the school buildings are sur
rounded by higher buildings whose
walls prevent sunlight as we'll as
air from entering, there can be no
excuse for the teachers who occupy
our country school houses. In one
school We heard fine recitation on
the subject Of lungs, their functions
&C., the pupils answering with
promptness and correctness as to
the amount of pure air required, yet
that same room was sadly deficient
in fresh air. In few schools we
noticed that some effort towards ven
tilati0n was made. One the wide
awake, live teachers remarked that
she had been trying to apply the di-
rections given at the Institute, but
was not wholly satisfied with the re-
suit, yet che did not despair but was
seeking for "mo:e light" as we'll as
for more fresh air. Any teacher
who watches his pupils closely must
observe how languid, restless, and
inattentiye they become at times.
Remember there is no effect without
it's cause, therefore when you detect
this effect proceed at once to find out
the Cause an2 if that cause be a lack
of air to feed their energies upon
supply the lack at once.

it makes as sickeHing a revelation as
has been seen for many day.
1t has long been limited that the
warfare on SIr. Beecher had its origin
in the anger Of a free-love wing Of the
woman suffrage party in New York /;
but few really believed that his own
sister could he the Instrument sDec-

man seems to have really supposed
that the pastor of Plymouth church
was guilty of criminal intimacy with
one of his parishioneTs, that he could
confess it to her before the congrega-
ton in some theatrical fashion in
which she had devised a prominent
role for her self aud that then he could
go on preaching as usual! OF course
