JIM.

Z" Jim has future front OF him.
That's what they used TO say OF Jim,
For when young Jim was only ten
He mingled with the wisest men,
With wiscst men he used TO mix,
And talk Of law and politics;
And everybody said Of Jimi
. He has future front OF him"
When Jim was twenty years Of age.
All costumod ready for life's stage,
He had perfect mans physique.
And knew philosophy and Greek,
He'd delvod In every misty tome
OF old Arabia and Rome,
And everybody said Of jim:
+" He has q future front OF him"
When Jim was thirty years OF age
He'd made world wide pilgrimage,
He'd walked and studied meath tho trees
OF German universities
And visited and pondered on
The sites Of Thebes and Babylon:
And everybody said OF Jim:
" He has future front OF him"
The heir TO oil earth's heritage
Was Jim at forty years OF age,
The lore Of all the years was shut,
And focused in his occlput;
And people thought, so much he knew:
" What wondrous things our Jim will dol"
They more than ever said of Jim:
" He has future front OF him"
Al fifty years, though Jim was changed.
He had his knowledge well arranged,
All tabulated. systemized.
And adequately synthesized.
His head was 30 well filed within
He thought: I'm ready TO begin"
And everybody said OF jim:
|" He has future front OF him."
At sixty--no moro need be said
At sixty years poor Jim was dead
The preacher said that such as he
Would shine to all eternity;
In other words. beyond the blue,
There was great work for Jim 10 do;
And DER his bier he said Of Jim:
= He has q future front OF him"
Tho great deeds we are going TO do
Shine 'gainst tho vastncss OF the blue,
Like sunset clouds OF lurld light
Against the background CT the night;
And so we climb the endless slope.
Far up the crownlcss heights OF hope,
And each one makes himself Jim,
And rears q future front Of him.

III she had known your object"
"Sho might not have been BATTERED"
Brown said as Russell hesitat ID, "but
she would have wished to SEQ you all
the same. She always agrees with me-;
I'm afraid she does with everybody. 1t
is the fault of her training. l expect,
however, that she will differ with you
on many questions, and that Is one of
the reasons why your company will be
intellectually valuable. blush to say
1t in this connection, but | can not

for Wishing to put this good influence
into my life, and for the faith in me

They smoked awhile in silence. Rus
sells thoughts wandered confusedly
over the affairs OF the day-the series
OF petty loans, and the strange trust
which had just boon reposed In him.
Brown rose to GO.

"If remember rightly, we were," re-
piled Russell. "Our conversation this

when we weren't talking, you were

heart Is seriously affected"
"Seven hundred and thirty days."
said Brown, with groan, "what an

the usual sentence for first oifenses,"
said RUSSELL; "but then it's u serious

''If l were only sure mad the plumber!
No, old man; it's the Other way about.

Russell was bidding his friend good

Brown had decided to let the winds watt

Office OF superintendent OF
Education.
WATERBURY,. W., March 3, 1891.

WATERBURY,. VI, March 3, 1891.
Dear Sir: Section l88 OF the School Law
of 1888 provides: "rhe clerk OF each school
district shall annually, during the last two
weeks of the school year. prepare an accu-
rate list containing the name and age of
trict and the name OF the parent or other
person having control of such child; and he
Shall keep such list on file, and make such
report theretrOm, as the superintendent OF
Education may require"
Section Is of the School Law of 1890 pro-
vides: Sand the duties of the State Super
intendent and town and district school Off
GERS, having relation to the beginning and
close of the school year, and the malnten-
ance of schools and the statistics thereof,
shall be performed three months earlier
than now required by law"
1t is plain that the school census must be
taken this year during the last tiUO lUeeks
of March instead of the last two weeks Of
June.
Section 1855 of the School Law of 1883 also
provides as to the division of the public
money: "Before making such division,
selectmen shall carefully examine the en-
tries in each register and ascertain whether
a school has been kept in the district "a
weeks; y \ and whether the entries
required to be made by the District Clerk
have been made as required; and no public
money snail De ulSCflDuteu % u SCHOOL us
trict unless such district has supported
school "a weeks during the school year;
y nor unless the register has been
properly filled out blythe district clerk"
Section 1888 OF the School Law of 1888
provides: 1.-The Superintendent of Fduca-
ton shall prescribe blank forms for school
register for keeping record of the daily at
tendance of pupils, and heterogeneous to
be printed in said registers for procuring
the statistical information required to be
given by teachers and district officers, and
for procuring such further information as
he may think desirable"
Section 1893 of the same Act provides:
"Thp district clerk" upon the final return
to him of the register, shall enter therein
correct answers to the interrOgatOries to be
answered by the clerk; Il and the dis
trict clerk shall file such registers so com
pleted in the Office CT the town clerk, etc.
Will you please call the attention of the
of the district clerks to the necessity of tax
ing the school census during this month,
and also to the necessity of answering all
the questions in the back part of the regis
tiers relating to the census, in order to en-
title them to the pnblc money. For the
purpose of this census, the children of
school age are those who are over 5 and
under ~ years of age.
Yours respectfully,
EDWIN +. PALMER,
oupt. of Education.

ACADEMY ITEMS.

The spring term Of Bradford ,Acade.
my opens this week with 100 students:
the largest spring term for many years
The outside tuition is estimated above
$3.50. Four years ago the spring term
enrolled &c students, and the tuition
collected was $53.
There are fourteen in the gradual
ing class, six boys ana eight girls.
Miss Jones meets with a warm re.
ceptiOn by all the students.
The catalogue of Merrill Library is
just out containg seventy-two pages
1t is well bound and printed on good
paper. The Library contains 1911
volumes and has an annual income of
$3.50. 1t is one of the best school IL
braries in Vermont.
Thirty-one tuition scholars this term
at the Academy, from twelve different
towns.
The Opinion Mfg. Co., in which our
village takes just pride, has been fur
ther strengthened during the past week
by the addition to its board of direct
Ors, OF VIM. b. Stevens, Esq, one of
our oldest, wealthiest and most re-
spected merchants, and David Blakely,
Esq, President of the Blakely Print
ing Co., of Chicago, Ill. By an unex-
pected coincidence the business of the
company has been correspondence in
creased by the receipt of number of
orders. valuable in themselves, but of
additional importance as coming from
some of the best offices in the New
England, the Middle and Western
States, New York, New Jersey, WASH
ingtOn, Ohio, Michigan and Illinois
contribute their share. The following
commentator from the manager of
the Rockford Qll.) Morning Star, en-
tirely unsolicited, is fair illustration
of the cordial reception which the
Kendall Folder is receiving from pur-
chasers of the later machines:
Sin regard to the Kendall folder, have
only unqualified gratifiration to express of
its construction and working qualities. 1t
has been attached to our Campbell press
and from the day it was put in, it has not
occasioned us bit of trouble. 1t runs as
aud perfectly as clock work, turns
out well folded, neat paper and saves an
amount of confusion and time
among the carrier boys. l only wonder
how we worried along without it all these
past years. 1t enables us to give our sub
scribers their paper from half to three
quarters Of an hour earlier each morning
than of yOre and besides this strong point
it is worth its full value to us in the saving
of room which was required for folding ia
bles under the old method of preparing pa
pers for delivery. Frankly, you could not
get our Kendall away from us now with a
derrick. Nor would ask for more per-
feet method of attaching folder to press. 1t
takes the sheet from the press and delivers
it perfectly folded with as perfect regulari-
ty as the printed sheets leave the forms"
One of the proprietors of the Morn
ing Star, by the way, is Mr.. j. STAN
ley Browne, formerly private secre-
tary of President Garfield. Mr..
Browne, it will be remembered, and
Mollie Garfield, daughter of the martyr
were married year or two
since.
