SALEM.

Two weeks have elapsed without
once hearing the sonorous whistle of
the iron horse on the Kenosha & Rock
ford railroad.
Miss Mabel Booth is visiting friends
in Chicago.
Alvin Hocum has moved on the
Frank Munson farm, which he has
hired.
Miss Cora Cronk, who had closed
her winter term of school, after being
snow-bound q week, returned home on
Thursday.
Abram Van Vie, who fell on the
ice and cracked two of his ribs, is get
ting better.
Mr.. Faden occupies his new house
which he has recently built on a piece
of land leased to him by Mr.. Eli Sher-
man, of Brighton.
Ward Silvernail will gladly hail the
day when he can exhibit his new buggy
on good roads.
Forty-four pupils attended the Meth
odist Sunday school last Sabbath.
Mrs. Nodiah Brown, aged SO years,
who for years had not seen a we'll day,
peacefully fell asleep in her chair on
Thursday afternoon to wake where
pain and sickness are unknown. She
was refined Christian lady, member
of the Methodist church, and was
much beloved by her friends. She pa
tiently bore the ills of life, and, believ-
ing in Him who was meek and lowly
IN heart, she not only found rest of
soul, but in looking beyond she beheld
through His many blessed promises
the glory of the border-land to which
she was willing, aye, anxious to go
when the Master should say "Come."
The family have the sympathy of the
whole community. Rev Geo. Parsons,
of Bristol, will preach the funeral SER
mon next Sabbath, March 20, at 2
o'clock, in the NJ. E. church.
Mr.and Mrs. Lemuel Booth, who for
fifty years have journeyed together
through life, saw fit to celebrate the
event on Wednesday afternoon. The
company, including children, grand
children, and invited guests, numbered
fifty-two, and all together they were a
happy looking throng, but no one wore
a happier look than Mr.. and Mrs.
Booth. The presentation of presents
was restricted to the relatives only, so
the presents, though limited in num-
bers, were not by any means the less
elegant. They received handsome
chandelier, gift from the children, and

gold-headed, aristocratic looking cane,
which was formally presented by the
Rev. Mr.. Haigh. An elaborate repast
was served, and so nobly were the
guests entertained in every way that
there seldom happens q pleasanter
golden wedding.

WOMANLY CRITICISM OF
DROSRY.

DR.. CrosbY's temperance sermon, OF
intemperance sermon, as some of his
critics call it, delivered in Boston some
weeks ago, was bomb thrown into the
total abstinence camp from a battery
that they expected to be turned only in
defense, and ever since the Prohibition.
lists and orthodox temperance people
have been waging war upon the Doctor
for the expression Of opinions so oppo-
site to their own. Mr.. Crosby held that
prohibition was not temperance, ard
that moderate drinking was not intern
perance. The religious papers, with
few exceptions, have devoted columns
of editorials to criticising this temper
ance sermon, and clerical and temper
ance orators have eloquently discours-
ed upon it. As this sermon was deliver
| ed from the pulpit of fremont Temple,
Boston, that was selected as the most
fitting place from which to deliver the
replies, and Wendell Phillips first took
up the gauntlet and others followed.
Last week Mrs. Ellen Foster, of Ind1-
ana, went to Boston to deliver a reply to
the Chancellor. and in opening her adj
dress explained the object of her visit
in the following language
When Zenobia, the Queen of the
East, rode upon her white steed at the
head of her armies, to save Palmyra
from the grasp of Roman avarice. she
needed no new amounting. Palmyra
was in danger and she was Queen !;
she looked from the glittering domes
of her proud capital to the hosts of
Rome under its proud Aurelian, and
urged by royal impulse she went forth.
The women of America are Queens,
every one ; from early girlhood they
have been taught from pulpit, press,
and platform that by virtue of their
motherhood they held undisputed sway
over the home. This kingdom in the
home is undisputed by the pure and
good. It is assailed by intemperance,
it is threatened by the drinking GUS
toms Of society, and in defense Of the
home woman has engaged in distinc.
tive temperance work. Five weeks ago
to-day cultured Christian gentleman,
the head of a great educational institu-
ton. man called of God to preach the
gospel of his Son, and set apart by the
Christian Church to do that work,
stood on this platform and assaulted the
fundamental principles which underlle
our defense of ourselves in this work
and our appeals to all good people to
aid us by their cooperation, or at least
by their good wishes. Good and able
men from this and other platforms,
from many Christian pulpits, and
through the press, have answered what
of argument the gentleman's address
contained !; they have mourned it's ar
rogance and rebuked its assaults. They
have done so on broad and general
grounds, not in a spirit of partisanship
or III defense of any narrower interests
than those involved in the veal of our
common humanity. l come to-day by
invitation of the Boston Woman's
Christian Temperance Union, by the
permission of these honorable gentle
men, and by your sufferance, to review
the address from a woman's point of
view, and to set forth the causes which
have led the women Of this land to
take up arms against the drinking Gus
toms of society" -InteT Ocean,

The American people goabouto btain-
ing an education much as they go about
doing a job of work or eating dinner.
Dispatch seems to be their watchword.
All in a hurry. The end aimed at is
completion. They aim more at quanti-
ty than at quality. They want a house
built. The first interrogatory pnt is,
How soon can you graduate my son %
is the question of the anxious parent
when he takes his son to college for
the first time. as if graduating were of
much Importance. Too many are
graduated. Diplomas are too easily OBJ
tanned. Money and favor get more di-
plomas than merit and culture. Diplo-
mas cannot honor one in the eyes of a
competent judge. The persons who
honor you because you are so unfortu-
nate as to obtain a diploma, are less
cultured than yourself. The men who
succeed honor their alma mater more
than it can honor them.
Most schools commence examining
at six. and continue it until the pupils
are disqualified by age to attend. Nor
are the teachers always to blame for,
remember, many of them were trained
in cram" schools. Many schools give
aesthetic culture only, others give a
smattering of drawing, music, etc.
Their students, parrot-like, can perform
half dozen selections we'll on piano,
or draw few pictures from copy, |
with degree of skill-no, not skill, by |
Imitation, rather. But to play new
selection, or draw an original design,
would be to them an impossibility.
Three things are necessary to give
thorough culture: 1. The knowledge
must be systematized and understood |
in its connections, in opposition to that
which is fragmentary and unmastered.
2. The nature of the mind to which
knowledge is to be impaired must be
understood. 3. The party imparting
must know the proper method. Knowl-
edge must be learned culture makes
them wise. To say a man is wise is
the highest compliment you can give
him. The Teacher.

at Chicago, on the 23d Of February, 1881, at
the age Of % years. Although the best Of

From parents, loving, kind

A good illustration of irrational con-
struction of school buildings and i'm
perfect arrangements for heating was
given at the recent meeting of Knox
County teachers at Abingdon. While
the institute was in session they gagged
the temperature Of the room and found
that it was 45 deg. Fahrenheit near the
floor, go deg. two feet above the floor,
and 10 deg. at the height of a mans
head. 1t is hardly to be wondered at
headaches, brain fevers, diphtheria,
and consumption are prevalent in To-
calities where children are forced to sit
in such rooms from day to day. To
begin with, there is not sufficient
thought given to the Importance of
banking up around school houses to
keep the wind from bowling under the
ground floor, sucking up between the
plastering and sheathing, and playing
freely under all the other floors. In
the next place, there is no arrangement
in most school houses for drawing off
the cold air at the base Of the room,
when the expansion of the heated air
would drive it out if it could get out.
The fact that it is impossible to heat
an unventilated room with anything
like equilibrium has been proclaimed
by the public press again and again,
but very few reflect upon it, and act up
on it. That myriads of school children
are sitting to-day, trying to study with
their feet in cold bath ranging well
down toward the freezing point, while
their brains are almost SETTLING in a
summer atmosphere, should put science
and common sense both to the blush
