Postmaster DAYTON received instruc-

Postmaster Dayton received instruc-
tons from Washington yesterday to
call for bids for the removal of the
spy gallery" This gallery has for
the past two years been one of the
mysteries of the postoffice. There is
a weird, Spanish-1nquisition air about
it which gives one a chill.
The postoffice inspectors, about two
years ago, requested that a gallery be
built across the sorting room, some
twenty feet from the floor, from which
they could watch suspected clerks.
This gallery was built and was enclos-
ed on both sides with blinds. Then
Uncle Sans sleuth- began to
look for malefactors.
1t was great fun for the clerks. For
a long time the blinds would creak
every time they were opened and the
clerks would laugh. The feelings of
the man who opened the blinds do not
figure in the official report. 1t must
have annoyed him, however, to hear
smoker throughout the room just as
he was prepared to do an afternoons
patient watching. Then, again, after
the blinds were In perfect working or
der, the sun would manage to get
above the glass roof of the postoffice
and the clerks would see a dark
shadow in the gallery Now and then
a clerk would espy pair of eyes peer
ing intently through an opening in
the blinds, and would wink quietly at
the inspector. Then would follow
disgusted rafting of blinds and the
inspector would go away
The clerks objected because the
gallery threw shadow over the floor
and shut out the light The inspect
ors found that the scheme didn't work
as we'll as they had thought it would.
After various complaints had been
made, Postmaster Dayton, as custod-
ian OF the building. requested that the
gallery be removed 1t will probably
disappear within two weeks.

THE LECTURE.
Prof. Getz, of Monmouth, Speaks On
THE New Education"


An unusually large attendance was
present to hear the lecture OF Prof. p.
A. Getz, OF the Monmouth State Nor
mai School. upon "The New Educa-
tion."
The lecture last evening treated OF
the new education in relation to mental
development OF the student The fol-
lowing points were made with great
clearness and interest; The new edu-
cation was new" not In chrono-
logical sense. but that It was the live
and the true education 1t followed ina
ture," in suiting the instruction and
mental stimulus to the state OF the
chiid's mind. II did not consist In the
simple pouring In" process OF the old
cramming system. nor did 1t consist OF
the simple socratic method Of drawing
out innate feelings and intuition. which
led to mere reflection and pure thought
without action; but rather followed the
principle Of John Lock that we yet our
ideas through the physical senses. Yet
the aim OF the new education, In object
teaching, manual training and accurate
development OF the bodily organs was
not to develop the physical senses. but
to develop the mind through the senses.
Vivid contrasts were drawn between
the irssone, sleepy and cramping ways
OF the old style. and the new methods
which hold the attention and interested
all the faculties profoundly as the hours
Of school go on
The professor gave the schools OF AS
torIa the compliment that they showed
evidences OF the new education well at
work.

This he said every day, each time
using another incident of past or cur
rent history, or quoting a different au-
thor of ancient or modern times Al
ways winding up with some absurd or
comical allusion to the universal and
crying need for dog collars. name plates,
etc. and apparently proving the impos-
sibility of being happy in this world
without them. Who with a canine
could resist these appeals? who with
a front door would let it go bare; who,
indeed, would write his name with pen
when a rubber stamp ceuid be had with
which to dasit? Novelty is the great
charm CT advertising. Originality is
what the world sighs for. Be original
and your fortune is made,
