TRUE TEACHING.
[To Ida L. Brdndoa.l
Is Ida L. Brnndon young teRcher7 That Is the
impression conveyed by her article on teaching.
TITS true teaching is grand profession, and that
general knowledge Of psychology and theory are
necessary 10 correct instruction. but the sooner we
drop all high-nown ideas of the sscredncss OF the
profession " aud bring ourselves down TO realize
that commoB-seHse instruction and methods are
the ones TO win, the sooner we viii succeed in
making n success ia school - Train the mind TO
good thoughts" Yes. Ida, and the way To do that
Is to gain the confidence of your pupils by apply.
nag tact and good sense. Lft them TO the clouds
you can bat come down to mother eafth tor
starting place.-H &. Strawn, Wocottville, Ind.
SUMMING UP THE QUESTION.
FRIENDS or THE c. c. After all that has been
said, the question Is: " Does prohibition prohibt
drunkenness? / still answer no. may live In
a bad community. However. live only five miles
from g. Nj. Edmundson. OF Milton. / have talked
personally with Friend Gill; and lac admitted that
Iowa prohibition a failure. aud that he took
the other side OF the question only for the sake of
argument; and really believe that my other Iowa
antagonists did the same Day after day. week al
ter weak, month after month"; aud year after year,
the political status in Iowa ~ growing worse.
Liquor ~ shipped into the Stale ia any quantity

carry u IN their for treat and sale. Small boys
steal u out Of old houses where men have hid - :
carry Il out To brush patches aud sink tn common
lcvel with pigs. Old men carry IT 10 back alleys.
and under cover OF darkness carry on their wild
orgies; young men coHgregaie and make arrange
ncnts to have 10 shipped them and then get 10
their own expressonj Eloriousiy drunk"
We have no open saloons in the Central State;
yet bootlcgs, b0es ia the wall. caisup bottles etc.
are very numerous. Al men have an aversion To
violating law openly, aud saloon men would rather
pay license than TO violate; yet II they are not
allowed to pay license they will sell IL without
paying. One OF the great OF our State says
Iowa Is "A beacon light 70 her sister States Yes,
] agree with him there. She WAS to those States
who voted down Prohibition. bat trust aud pray
tlIat long size will throw OF that coat which
makes heT beacon light" and return To her for

have tried The experiment and have failed. To
