Educational Interests of the County

| Herbert Spencer, in his treatise on educa-
tion, says: ITO prepare us for complete
living is the function which education has to

can only be realized by one perfectly devel-
oped in ali his powers. The value cfan ed
ucational course then, is TO be measured 10y
! the degree in which it developes all the pow

up his consideration OF The purpose of cduca.
tinn by defining it rs "the cultivation of all
the native powers Of the child 10y exercising
them IN accordance with the laws of his be.
ing, with II view to development aed growth"
Since the possibility of complete living
necessitates the cultivation of all the native
powers of the child, 1t is plain that system
of schools should be 50 constituted that all
the appliances used and all the studies pre-.
scrlbed shall teud toward the development

Have we such system of schools as de.
scribed in the opening paragraph l answer
No. Then il should be our object us teachers,
as school officers and as patrons 10 bring
about such system. The returns do not
justify the outlay, nor will they, if we run
our schools in huphazard way and jump for
general results.
Il is I'm admitted fact that the country aud
village schools are the back bone and siuew

The changing of teachers We have in our

DAVID r. FRANCIS,
NOMINATED FOR GOVERNOR OF
MISSOURI.

The candidature of David r. Francis
for the governorshlp of Missouri is
that OF a man still young, and who,
only few year ago, was a poor clerk
in a grocer's store.
When the candidate first became a
marked man he was employed in st.
Louis where he still resides. He was
naturally clever and capable, and
after making good use of the time
he spent in selling groceries, he began
the commission business on his OW IL
account. Before long he had accumu-
lated money, and had become recog-
niZed as a leader in the commercial
circles of st. Louis. This led to his
election as director of the Merchants
Exchange, which was the stepping
stone to the vice-presidency of the in
stitutiOn, and, in 1888, he was made
its president.
Mr.. Francis public services to the
democratic party began with his cleo
ton to the national convention of 1884.
The year after he was elected mayor
of st. Louis. He is an earnest friend
of the present federal administration.
His name appeared at the head of the
invitation extended to Mr.. Cleveland
last fall by the commercial metropolis
of Missouri. The historic welcome
given to the president by st. Louis
in 1887 is remembered by every
reader.
Mr.. Francis is only thirty-eight
years old, and there is every reason
t. expect that his eminently valuable
public services will be of long dura-
ton.
