EDUCATIONAL,
G. D. BELDEN, EDITOR.

Teachers in commencing their winter
terms must commence a careful record of
their class work. In most Of our schools
such a record of last terms work will be
found, and will be of great aid to the new
teacher. The time has passed for proof
OF the value of such records. They are
necessary to give an approximate know
ledge OF the work already accomplished
by each pupil. and the incoming teacher
has basis on which to commence school
without loss of time, and the pupil is ad-
vanced instead of being compelled to
pursue the same parts of the same study
year after year until he becomes heartily
discouraged in his school work and with
everything connected herewith The
only question to-day is with regard to
the best kind of a record to keep. In
answering this question it is only neces-
sary to remember the practical use of
such record. Its purpose"is to give a
complete idea of the class work and the
class standing OF every pupil IN the
school, We must have them. a. The
arrangement Of all the classes in the
school, indicated by the names of those
in each class. (2) The recitation and ex-
animation standing of every pupil. The
marking of the former may be recorded
every week or fortnight. 80 A record
OF the ground gone over during the
term, by each class, carefully including
all oral work. This to be made at the
end of every term. Such record is re-
quired in every school in Mower county.
Supt Belden visited the Taopi village
school on Thursday Nov, 30, and was much

book for language work has been intro
to be used in our schools. 1t is Whitney

1t will be sold for 81 cents. The teachers
edition of this book is an invaluable aid
to any of our teachers. Many already
are using it. 1t solves very salts
factorlly the problem of elementary
language work Copies can be obtained
of Supt. Belden at cost.
is time to plan for our Teachers Associ-
alton. We ought to have six or eight
this winter and it is better to hold them
during the earlier part Of the term.
There should be enough interest in these
meetings to cause the teachers of the
county to take them up without solicita-
ton from the Superintendent. Will the
teachers in the centre schools make sug-
gestions freely in regard to time, program
and conduct Of these, and send prompt
notice to Supt. Belden.
Contributions to this column from the
teachers of the county are invited. They
would add greatly to it's interest.
Those teachers who have not notified
| the Superintendent of the commence
| ment OF their schools are requested to dc
| so at once.

Money to he Made.

1t is said that dull times are not known
by the agents for the great publishing
house of George Stinson e. Co., Of Port
land Maine. The reason Of this excep-
tional success is found in the fact that
they always give the public that which is
keenly appreciated and at prices that all
can afford. At present we understand
their agents are doing wonderfully we'll
on several new lines. They need many
more agents in all parts of the country.
Those who need profitable work should
apply at once. Women do as well as
men. Experience is not necessary, for
Messrs. Stinson &'Co. undertake to show
all who are willing to work, not hard but
earnestly, the path to large success. 1t
should be remembered that an agent can
do handsome business without being
away from home over night. Another
advantage-it costs nothing to give the
business trial, and an agent can devote
all his time, or only his spare moments to
it. Stinson & Co. guarantee grand sue
cess to all who engage and follow simple
and plain directions that they give. We
have no space to explain all here, but
full particulars will be sent free to those
who address the firm; their full address

How One Woman Earned a Gold watct

How One Woman Earned Gold Watch.
1t is not every day that a lady can earn
a fine gold watch in six days, and attend
to her household duties besides, but we
know of one lady who did, and how 9TH
ers may do it too, if they begin now: In
September, a clergyman's wife, Mrs. Rev.
J. A Brown. Pittsville, Wis, wrote to a
popular subscription-book house, Duck
eye Publishing Co., Minneapolis, Mimi
that she needed gold watch and wanted
to earn it by selling their useful books,
the value of which she knew. They re-
piled making her special offer, and she
earned the watch in so short time, and
the watch was so handsome that many
who saw it and learned how it was
earned, wanted to earn one too. To an
swer the flood of correspondence, the
publishers printed a circular, and now
make the offer general, limiting the time
to January list, 1885. The circular with
full explanations will be sent free to any
address on application to BUCKEYE
