sponded to the toast, "The Watertown

excellent comparison between the ma
terial food needed for the building up
of our bodies and tissues and the intel
lectual food received at the high school.
He stated that too much food for the
body meant Indigestion; SO too much
intellectual food or study meant intel
lectual Indigestion. Also that too little
food for the body meant starvation; so
too little intellectual food or study
meant intellectual starvation It was
an instructive and interesting address
which all appreciated

In speaking Of this states delega-

to say:
The Wisconsin delegation contain
ed two gentlemen whose friends have
been urging them to become candi-
dates for important places on, the
state ticket-Thomas NJ Blackstock,
of Sheboygan, often prophetically ad-
dressed as "Gov." Blackstock, and
Jesse Stone, of Watertown, who is in
influence as well as in capacity ofcon-
siderably larger caliber than the tim
Der of which acknowledgements are
ordinarily made. Mr. Blackstock'
geniality is so irresistible that he has
not an enemy in the state.

rem in warm and comfortable convey
ances to these schools and instead of
a cost of eighteen dollars a scholar
that is two years behind in his scholar
ship, the one who is educated for
eleven dollars in the large school, you
will have all the town scholars along
side of each other in their learning
and at cheaper rate for the same
amount of knowledge than ever was
or ever can be with the small school.
I do not expect that we are ready for
that now, but the line of work should
be in that direction, toward the goal.
Under such or under any circum-
stances there ought to be school in
town of this size and wealth where
a boy or girl could get good fit for
college, and the town ought to be
unit in defraying the expenses of such
a preparation, which under the ideal
system would not be in excess of the
cost of inferior schools now Equality
of taxation for the support of all
schools is the right principle and
ought to be the pride and glory of ev-
cry loyal citizen. The situation of
the schools in town now is very pecul-
lar, far from ideal. Having seen what
effect the law has had upon the grad
ed school at the Landing, no sane
man would relinquish the -four
ishing academy in this village for
the town system, and unless the
legislature can provide for proper
grading and the higher studies in such
large villages, then the only way is to
keep out of the town system, or ap-
ply for charters which will keep us
off the "breakers" of the sunken sys-
tenn Of the old "deestrict'' school,
In closing this my last report and
with this year, my last work in the
educational field, for the present,
wish to thank all who have aided me
and sympathized with me in my
school work. All relations have
been Of the very pleasantest
kind, and can assure all that my in
terest will be for the good of the
schools and the children of the whole
town; while my chosen profession
requires and demands all my time
and my energies.
Respectfully submitted,

man of the House committee on the
District, and, although he no longer
serves on that committee, he is always
willing to do what he can to advance
the interests of the national capital.
The probability of no contest this fall
