General Registration Wanted.
From the Atlanta Constitution Dem

Already we have had warning of the
looseness of our election laws from the
federal courts. Two years ago Judge
Speer upset the registration list of Rich
mCnd county. Distinguished lawyers de-
clare that half, If not all, the registration
acts of the state are unconstitutional
This question is agitating some of the
districts in the present congressional race.
In this way our election laws will be
brought in time before congressional COM
mittees, and upon the result may de-
pend the political control of congress.
This question should at once be taken
in hard by the legislature. All special

The September Gale.
Oliver Wendell Holmes.

I'm not a chicken: I have seen
Full many g chill September,
And though l was a youngster then,
That gale I well remember;
The day before my kite string snapped,
And I, my kite pursuing,
The wind .whisked off my palm leaf hat;
For me two storms were brewing,
It came as quarrels sometimes do
When married folks get Clashing;
There was a heavy sigh or two
Before the fire was flashing
little stir among the clouds
Before they rent asunder-
A little rocking of the trees.
And then came on the thunder.
Lordi how the ponds and rivers boiled!
They. seemed like bursting craters,
And oaks lay scattered on the ground
AS if they were p'taterS.
And all above was in a howl,
And all below a clatter-
The earth was like frying-pan,
Or some such Kissing matter.
It CHANGED to be our washing dav,
And all our things We're drying;
The storm came roaring through the lines,
And set them oil a-fying;
I saw the shirts and petticOatS
Go riding off like witches;
I lost, ah! bitterly I wept-
l lost my Sunday brooches!
1 saw them straddling through the air,
Alas! too late to win them;
I saw them chase the clouds, as If
The devil had been in them.
They were my darlngs and my pride,
Ny boyhood' S only riches
Farewell farewell" 1 family cried
MY breeches! oh, my breechesr'
That night I saw them in my dreams
How changed from what | knew them
The dews had stepped their faded threads,
The winds had whistled through them.
/ saw the wide and CHASTITY rents,
Where demon claws had torn them,
hole was in their amplest part
As If an imp had worn them.
I have had many happy years,
And tailors kind and clever,
But those young pantaloons have gone
Forever and forever!
And not till fate has cut the last
OF all my earthly stitches,
This aching heart shall cease to mourn
My loved, my long lost breeches.

Advices from Atlanta are to the effect
that Harry Hill will ''cut" Atlanta society
when he gets back from his outing under
the states auspices. He says Society"
has done him a great deal of harm, and
he means to get even with it as far as pos
sible. Lord" Beresford and Hin are said
to have grown quite chummy since they
have been thrown so much into each
others company. Each wears collars and
cuffs made out OF the striped cloth and
starched as stiff as dudes linen, and Hill
sports an umbrella at the camp. Atlanta
society was. of course, much interested
in these details.

and while their claim is by no means

have in this.

The chairman Of the democratic con-

is danger that the democrats will not
control the next House, and that, there

New York city and Brooklyn must Weld

the time was very fast.

was a game struggle at the finish of the

Frank Agan was sent against Pixley in

r. Y. Academy sumner school.

Provo, July 25.-The time of opening
was changed this morning to GAS, in
order to accommodate those who are
camping in the canyon.
Prof McKendrick has two classes in
geometry, one at present studying
plane and the other solid geometry.
Both these classes recite early in the
day, before the regular opening of
school, at a. m.
The application Of known truths to
the discovery of truths yet unknown
seems to be the key and working basis
of both of these classes, and the teach
er with a word sets the student on a.
quest after fact, which he faithfully
follows until he overtakes and binds it
fast.
He encourages original problems,
processes and proofs, so that the judg-
ment takes precedence of memory in
the process of growth and strength.
Besides the daily class work, the stu
dents prepare and hand in for inspec-
ton a great deal of supplementary
work
1t must be a satisfaction to compe-
tent teacher like Mr.. McKendrick to
conduct a class of teachers who fully
realize the worth Of time, whose intel
lects are somewhat mature, and who,
in all probability, pursue the study
from love of it.

THE SUMNER SCHOOLS
AN INTER ESTING LECTURE by MISS
BROTHERHOOD YESTERDAY.
Address BY DR.. Bascom Before the
Department of Physical Culture
The Summer School at Provo.

The feature of the summer school
proceedings yesterday was the lecture
by Miss Brotherhood on 1.-THE Express
sion Side of Education The lady
said in part that the principles of the
new movement in education should be
comprehended as a whole in order to
make a right application of them in
methods. A statement to think about
is that we can study nothing except
through form. So form should be pre-
sented by the teacher n objects,
models, pictures, drawing, not expecting
the child to gain his knowledge solely
through oral language and reading.
We have had object lessons, but the
knowledge gained WAS in confusion.
Elementary science, elementary geo
graphy, elementary history are now be-
ing taught so that the chilli can order
his mental material and is unconscious
ly led to recognize relations between
things and perceive unity underlying
all. What expression should be re-
quired of the child? Il is now con-
sidered that what the child does is as
important as what he thinks. We have
now reached stage Of scientific study
of the child.
The body develops more rapidly than
the mind. So education is 90 pro vide
for much expression, as clay modelling,
painting, drawing, as we'll as oral Ian
guage and writing. TITUS skill of hand
and observation Of eye are second
Moral training, as the Sloyd system,
should be introduced. While thought
is the basis of expression, expression
tests and intensifies thought Express
sion is gained more rapidly through
this impulse of thought.
When carried on together time IS
saved and therefore more subjects can
be taught, with the re;ul. Of furnishing
the child with fund Of systernatized
knowledge and the ability to gain
knowledge for himself.
In the department Of physical culture
yesterday morning, DR.. Bascom made
an interesting and instructive address
upon the causes of disease peculiar to
women, laying especial stress upon the
need for exercise and care in diet and
dress. The doctor referred to the ne
cessity for exercising care on the part
of teachers in their work in high alti-
tudes, where the liability to impair
ment of the nervous system was much
greater than in lower attitudes.
At the art room Of the university,
Miss Babcock spoke last evening on
''The Relation of Physical Culture to
the Public Schools The subject was
ably handled and the address was lis
tened t. with close attention by large
audience.
