Teachers Examination.

Forty-four applicants wrote for certi-
ficates at the examination held August
"a and %. The following is the list: G.
G. R. Piersee, W. E. Robinson, L. S.
Garland, Jessie Taylor, D. L. Taylor, D.

Daisy Hoffer, Minnie Whismore, Marian
Hunt, Mile Stradal, w. Rhoades, F.
H. Stimits, w. J. Beardwell, Lou Cur
tbs, Charles Sweet, Josie Sweet and Ida
Lawrence. OF this number eighteen are
inexperienced. Twenty-six have taught
from three to eighty-nine months each
or an average of twenty-four months
each. One received first grade, eight
second grade and eighteen third grade
certificates OF the latter, six have yet
to teach their first schools.
| An examination of the tally sheet dis
closes some surprising results. The
percentage obtained in the higher
branches, constitution, philosophy and
bookkeeping which are required for
second and first grade certificates, are
all good or above 20 except three in con.
stitution. On the contrary the average
standing in photography, grammar
arithmetic and theory is noticeably low
and unsatisfactory to both applicant and
examiner. (However it is only just tc
teachers to state that the grading Of
| theory papers was more exact than Gus
tomary.) Evidently those teachers who
were endeavoring to raise their grades
from third to second or from second tc
first have applied themselves to the
| study of the higher branches at the ex.
pense of their standing in the common
and more necessary studies.
The examination was uncommonI1
long and tedious requiring great dea
of writing, some applicants writing five
hours on one subject, covering four tt
six pages OF legal cap. Others hurried
through unnecessarily fast or condensed
too much and omitted important ques
tions easily answered. Several becam,
discouraged at the unusual long AM
formidable array of questions or dis
trusted their ability to answer them an,
Western Kansas world. [volume] (WaKeeney, Kan.) 1885-current, 1894-09-08

thus invited partial or complete failure.
The work of the examiner was cores
pondlngly increased. The number of
applicants, the area of paper written,
uncommonly long list of questions with
their numerous and exact subdivisions
made this the longest examination ever
held in the county in regard to the work
of both the writer and the reader.
Then, too, few authors almost totally
ignored the three essentials OF good
writing, legibility, rapidity and beauty,
which Prof. Nowlin so carefully taught.
On the other hand some of the MSS.
were very neat and exact, pleasure to
the examiner and credit to their au-
thors. The. patience and care with
which the examiners attempted to per-
form the difficult and responsible task
OF grading these papers may be seen
when it is known that the undivided at
tention of the board for whole day
was given to the grading of one branch
alone.
On the whole. considering the num-
Der of searching questions and the exact
grading, our teachers have done very
well. Their grades are well earned and
are not given as complimentaries.

Avoiding Pertinent Things.

Here are some very sensible and per-
tinent remarks from the Kansas Breeze:
There is growing disposition on the
part of the populist managers to keep
away from the administration. record as
far as possible. The question of how
the crazy people and idiots are treated
apparently doesn't concern the party
managers, but the questions of govern
ment ownership of railroads, the issuing
of vast quantities of fat money, etc., en-
gross their attention. OF course the
S ate officials have nothing whatever to
do with these question, but what of
that?. 1t seems to be part of the Pop
ulist doctrines to talk about something
that they have no chance to accomplish
and ignore the things that are practical.
The party organs even intimate that all
this talk about the management of the
state institutions on the part of the re-
publicans is an ungentlemanly effort to
divert the minds of the toiling masses
from the great issue of governmental
ownership of railroads. Why should the
republican party keep talking such COM
mon-place things as the feeding of rot
ten meat to crazy people and old soldiers,
the walloping the stuffing out of few
friendless boys at the reform school; the
breaking of the neck of an attorney who
starts in to investigate the penitentiary
the humiliation of a dozen or such a
matter of idiotic boys; the taking of
Doodle from joints, lotteries, gamblers
and prostitutes, when the great burning
question of governmental ownership OF
railroads is up for discussion? 1t is
really annoying to think that people will
continue to talk about these common,
everyday matters which the state has
to control, when they might as well be
engaged in the soul-inspiring business
OF singing impossible figures to the
right and left, and building theoretical
governments out of substantial article
of mOonshine.

Dick Blue said in our presence, and
addressing A. 81. Ellis: ''When we go
to Congress, Ellis, our first duty and
obligation is to our constituents. Your
constituents are mine, also, and we
ought to be scourged out of remembers
ance of men and women if we do not do
something for these people up here in
northwest Kansas. This trip is revela-
ton to me- Never before did any coun-
try contain such courageous, heroic,
grand citizens as we find out here. The
fellows in the east ought to be compelled
to come out here and see and learn what
grit and endurance and intelligence is.

most privations with the greatest cheer

the worst failure in everything on ac-
count of these winds and continued long

and charity it has been mostly song and
story, but here, oh, Lord how grandly
exemplifed. | swear that am going to
do something for these people when l

Emery Cass, of Collyer township,
was trading in Wa-Keeney Tuesday and
made us call. He is one of the first
settlers of Trego county and by his thrift
and industry has made for himself and
young wife good home. He is an ex-
tensive stock raiser and owns one of the
best ranches in the county for that bus
mess. Mr.. Cass is an enthusiast on ir-
rigation and sub-irrigates 8 acres. His
crops at this time of the year are grow
ing despite the long continued drouth.
1t is a curious commentary on the
state of the wheat market that bushel
of wheat should come to be worth nc
more than a bushel of oats, and that
manufacturers should be able to adul-
terate oat meal with wheat at a profit
At present prices a pound of wheat is
worth about two-thirds of cent, and q
pound of oats is worth something neal
cent: The opening of vast arees tc
wheat culture has worked change il
conditions that must be met by wheat
growers everywhere, and the supremacy
of wheat as principal money crop il
sections where it has been the main de-
pendence is threatened in manner
that is causing serious concern.
