We hope the farmers will not repeat
their folly Of two years ago and burn
their straw. Our farmers know better
than to think because feed is abundant
one year that it is abundant every year.
By all means save your straw and stack
it well and another year will soon come
when every pound OF that straw will be
worth its weight in gold.-Oakley Graphic.

A Straight Angle.

Ask the first ten people you meet
what is a straight anrle" and sec
how many &C them do not show up
that hopeless look which implies a
belief that there is n joke but an
admission that they can't see it. Edu-
Gated men and women, even boys but
lately ont of the high school, will adj
nit that a straight angle is something
they never heard of. Webster, q
dictionary of some standing even IN
court. defines Oh angle a. Il bend or
corner, tie meeting of two lines that
run in different directions. But now
comes modern education, the great
selling agency for textbooks. and it
rroclaims that a straight angle not
only is. but is an important factor in
geometry.
There is 10 difference between n
straight cngle and a straight line-not
a bit. The line \, i, { is the angle
\. y, {. An angle is a straight line,
a bend" has no bend TO it, and q
corner IS Us open as all outdoors. But
modern education lind, in the theoret-
zeal angle of $50 degrees something
to nuzzle the children, and so we
have a new geometry. n rcconstruc-
ton on the customary basis of doing
things differently from the old way.
One would think that UP to now
education had been a failure; that
men and women who had rcckoned.
education and intelligent had owned,
that reputation 10 the ignorance of
those about them. and that nothing
worth studying forty years ago Is
worth teaching to-day. The parent
of to-day who would accompany q
child in its studies finds he must HIM
self undertake g course of study
Arithmetic is changed, grammar has
gone, and everything else is different.
Geometry with its straight angles is
oriy an incident and III illustration.
All this makes you reflect what
fools those people were who were
educated twenty-five to forty years
ago: not fools in tie sense of knowing
nothing, but fools because they
neglected the chance 10 strike out in
The lines that others could not under
stand. which. therefore, should be
adopted forthwith to prevent n
generation from using the books used
by the generation before it.-HaJf-
