THE WORTHINGTON SCHOOLS


The Worthington Schools opened or
Monday last with the following corps
OF teachers:
Principal High Schoel-L. Wright.
Teacher Of Upper Grammar-Magie
HALL.
Teacher of Lower Grammar
Twitchell.
Teacher of Upper Intermediate-Nlrs
Kate Jones.
Teacher Of Lower Intermediates
Hattie Smith.
Teacher of Primary-Mary Lynch.
Prof. Wright furnishes us the fol
lowing facts concerning the school:
The school opens with one addition
al department and teacher, and the
original plan Of the school will be more
fully developed this yer than during
any previous year. The standard 70,
each department will be advanced
about one years work. Hereafter pu-
pills will complete all the common
BRANCHES in the grammar department
except perhaps arithmetic. That will
enable the work Of the High School t0
be confined to its more proper sphere.
Tho original design Of the High
School was the preparation of pupils
for the State University. For this pur'
pose it receives al annual appropria-
tion from the State of $500. In con
sideration Of this aid it is compelled to
give tuition free Of expense to all out
side pupils who can pass the required
examination, which is fixed by law as
| i.,l fha hat 4
for II third grade teacher.
1t is also required 10 keep the attend
ance Of the High School up to twenty
pupils.
The High School course IS essentially
that OF a preparatory school for the
State University, and is virtually ull.
der the direction Of the President of
the State University.
When pupil completes any given
study he is examined in those topics
the questions being furnished by the
President of the University, and the
If the examination is satisfactory the
pupil receives Il certificate from the
President of the University, and that
| will stand him instead of any further
examination in that subject.
uC IA ~ cCIIOOl CitiS ItthCS tuC llttLt
of the old time academy. with this ad
vantage, that it directly articulatts
with the State University. The pupils
of the High School have Ill the advan-
tage OF those of any academy, with the
additional advantage that tuition is
paid by the state.
In order that the high school may be
a success the work must be thorough
in all the lower grades, beginning with
the primary, which is the most impor-
tant room of all, as the habits a pupil
forms there remain with him.
In all the rooms additional attention
will he paid to reading, writing and
spelling, with increased attention tc
arithmetic in the upper grades. Incl
dentally drawing will receive attcn-
ton, rs we'll RS composition and Eng
lish literature.
Heretofore the aim has been to Sc
cure proper discipline by mild means
The school is small community in
which the rights Of each must be re-
spected by all. The child has his rights
and no one must be allowed to inter
| fere with those rights any more thai,
| one man must be permitted to interfere
| with the rights of another man.
The right Of each pupil is an Oppor
t"rity for study, and under proper dis
cirline no other pupil will be permit.
| ted to interfere.
The basis of all discipline in the
schOolroom is the protection of the
pupils.

FROM A SENSE OF DUTY

Some people shrink from making
public the benefit they have received,
while others are free to tell it abroad
for the benefit OF fellow morta]s. Of
the latter kind is Mr.. J. II. Coppuck,
of Mount Holly, n. j., who writes: Il
am one of many who give their cheer
full appreciation Of the merits of the
efficacy of your valuable Browns Iron
Bitters, from sense Of duty. This
bitters is doing much good in our
county, for which can vouch."

A RAYMOND AND wHITCOMB EXCUR-
SION TO MEXICO.

RAYMOND AND wIITCOMB EXCUR-
SION TO MEXICO.
Messrs. Raymond & Whtcomb the
well-knOwn excursion managers have
opened up new field for their deserv-
eddy popular tours, and one that pos
sesses very strong attractions. They
have arranged a magnificent trip of
forty days through Mexico. The
party will leave Boston February 26,
and throughout Mexico will travel by
special trains of Pullman palace cars.
Wherever the comfort of the travellers
can be enhanced by the employment
of dining cars these will be attached
to the train. Not only the city of Mex
leo, where il stop of nearly fortnight
is To be made, but numerous other CT
ties are to be visited, including Chi
huahua, Zacatecas, Aguascalientes, LIE
on, Silao, Guanajuato, Queretaro, lula,
Pueblo, ChOlula, and Orizaba. There
will be every facility for Sightseeing
at all the places named, and Mt many
other points of picturesque interest.
Some OF the ancient Toltec and Aztec
ruins will be visited. In many of the
places included in the grand round of
travel American tourists are seldom
seen, and everywhere in that country
the life and customs of the people are
essentially foreign to American eyes.
Conductors and guides will accompany
the party throughout the tour, and its
members will be relieved of all care.
This latter is II feature that will be es-
pecially appreciated i'll Mexico, where
the foreign language is spoken and
where the customs differ from our own.
A circular giving full details of the
trip and many facts relating to the
places to be visited, may be obtained
of w. Raymond, 246 Washington
street, Boston.

Bridge, Boom and Dam Swept Away.

The hard rain of Sunday night and
Monday morning sent rivers of water
down our hills, and more oI less dam
age was done hereabouts. The trestle
railroad bridge over Sleeper's river
between the depot and Fairbanks
village, was carried ont by the ice
about noon. 1t was speedily repaired
and trains ran over it the next morn
ing. The boom above Halls mills iR
Lyndon gave way Monday, letting out
about six hundred thousand feet of
logs. In going out the logs injured
the dam seriously. The logs rau
mile down below Wilder's pulp mill,
as far as the ice was cleared out of thc
river, and there stopped. We have
not learned Mr.. Halls loss, but it must
be considerable.

s.rhe Heather in Their Blindness.

Quite good audience assembled at
Music hall Monday evening to see and
hear Mr.. Leitch's lecture, which was
very instructive and interesting, bring
ing out us it did the horrors of idOla-
try and hcathenism. The views of
things in and about the famous temple
Menachis, in Madura, though some of
them were loaded with solid gold and
Jewels, caused shudder as one saw
those shapeless and imaginary beings
worshipped as gods. The most inter
esting of all were the scenes of the
mission work, and the industrial home
built by the American board which
gives accommodation to 100 girls. After
seeing these heather people, their life
and religion, i'll the light i'll which
they were shown Monday evening, one
cannot help thinking of the great i'm
pOrtance of missionary work. The pro-
ceeds of the entertainment, above ex-
penses, was about $50, one-half OF
which goes to the chilAren's mission
