Now. friends, this is great mistake. If
there is any one place which is OF most vital
importance to all the best hopes and prosper
ity OF River Falls that place is yonder public
school. The school is ever the truest hand
maid OF the church. We need more of pub
lie intelligence, culture, true science which
we may be sure will all most help on the
kingdom OF Christ. God be thanked for any
Prof Denton or Jameson or any body else
who can tell us any new fact of nature 1t is
so much more OF God revealed to us. And if
these men choose to add sneers at the Bible
and Christianity, the Bible and Christianity
can stand it. / have no fears. But il we need
and desire education, science, schools, noble
true teachers as help to the cause of God,
so also do these teachers need our apprecia-
ton, sympathy, interest, and prayers. And
one little simple thing we all can do, which,
more than anything else will evince interest
and encourage and help those teachers, and
which will also do us good, warm our own
hearts and enlarge our ideas, and that is: at
least once in this term which opens to-mor-
row, and if we can, repeatedly, to visit the

live away from the village, all this

A very large audience was present
at the Academy of Music, last night,
to listen to the opening lecture on
Geology by Prof. VIM. Denton. With
out ceremony the speaker introduced
his subject by stating that the Earth
is generally considered the dwelling
place OF man; but that this expression
does not say enough. Man is of the
Earth, part of it. Its slick is in his
teeth its lime in his bones its iron
in his blood. If man wants to under
stand himself he must first learn to
understand the Earth upon which he
moves. After referring briefly to the
different rock formations found in
this vicinity, the speaker elaborated
upon the effective agencies of water
and fire in making the Earth's crust
what it now is. He explained how
the aqueous rock, such as shale, lime
stone, and sandstone are simply the
sedimentary deposits made by water
ages ago; anu now granite, trap, ana
other igneous rocks owe their origin to
the direct agency of fire. He adheres
to the commonly accepted, but disput-
cd theory of a fiery interior of the
Earth, giving in illustration the usual
proofs. such as increase in tempera-
ture as we descend, volcanoes, earth
quakes, and hot springs. All these
points were amply elaborated and IL
Illustrated by calcium light pictures.
Mr.. Denton is fluent speaker and
thoroughly acquainted with his sub
jeet. His illustrations are clear and
striking, commanding the closest at
| tentien of his audience throughout.
We have no doubt that he will have
full houses during the entire course.

The somewhat lengthy address of
DR.. S. NJ. Davis, before the Natural
Science Association, last Saturday
evening, was listened to by a large
audience, with much interest. The
speaker urged upon his hearers the
necessity of habits of cleanliness as
the great preventative against disease.
He proved by ample illustration that
filth, about the person and about the
premises, is the greatest life destroyer
of the age. Modern cookery is anoth-
er great cause of the ailments man
complains of. Incompatibles, like
grease and spice, are constantly taken
into the system; diseases of various
kinds are theinevitabler Vitiat-
ed air kills many. Our dwellings and
our public buildings, especially our
school houses, are miniature "Black
Holes all calculated to undermine
health. Home amusements and judi
cious exercise, the speaker advocated,
public balls didn't meet his approval.
Under the head of Mental Hygiene, the
speaker took bold stand against class
instruction in our schools, against our
system of primary education, and
against the so-called self-reporting
system. We were sorry to see that
the last named topics were not dis
cussed by the members of the Associ-
alton, as we know that some of them
do not agree with the learned speaker
as to the correctness of the statements
made. The Doctor has evidently Civ
en- his subject much thought; and it
must have been highly gratifying to
him to see so large and attentive an
audience present to listen to him.
