TnE TEkCHINo OF JOURNALISM.

The indianapolis University has added
q course Id journalism to Its curriculum
and will undertake to instill into the
minds of atpiring students some knowl-
edge Of ho|s newspaper Is made. The
department. Is In charge Of man who
has had experience In newspaper work,
and the attempt will be to avoid the mis-
takes madd by other schools Of the kind
and give PRACTICAL, rather than the0ret-
ical instruction. The proposed course In
cludes study In English, history, p0liti-
cal theory constitutional history and
economics and presumably the budding
journalists will be required to try their
hands at reporting and other depart
ments of actuxl newspaper work.
The stu,)ies mentioned are each and
all important. Familiarity with them
means knbwlege that every well equip
ped newspaper man should have. While
so acquaintance with political history
and polltickl economy may not be essen
tial to the proper reporting Of police
court case pr street car accident, IL may
be found n edful to the intelligent inter
viewing Of btatesmen and politicians. No
know ledgeIthat can be acquired, indeed,
ever omesIamiss TO the newspaper man.
In this profession, more than any other, y
store OF varied information Is necessary.
The higher and broader the general ed
ucatlon The better the worker, other
things beipk equal. IL Is the fashion TO
gibe at the college graduate when he en-
tiers upon " hat he proudly terms n
s'career of iournalism'-after the first
year he newer calls IL journalism; but IL
Is his vagte ideas OF what real news
paper worA means, and not his college
education. which excites amusement.
As a rule. he Is disposed TO regard re-
porting with scorp and to feel that his
talent Is waited unless he can help "m0ld
public opinion" by contributing essays
TO the editorial page. The only way In
which hc CAB acquire proper estimate
of values Is through experience rs u
worker, buI there Is no reason why he
should not be better prepared in advance
for tskiux DIP the calling thanis ordina-
rily the cIst. The studies mentioned he
would take n any college course, but II
he gets, in addition, n training In the art
OF reporting he will be saved many I'M
pleasant encounters later with the editO-
rial blue pebcil and the elimination OF his
finest rhetofical efforts. lie can be train
ed TO breyty, conciseness, accuracy
above all atcuracy-and the simplicity
Of the narrative style suitable to the re-
lation OF dskly vents. And he can be
taught thatIreportinX Il Held In which
he may shitc. Mere routine reporting
Is more or less drudgery, but II he
proves mdster OF his art, even that Ia
not barren Of opportunity. Taken in
all its phasds, reporting affords better
opening for ambitious youth than any
other department Of newspaper work. lie
will get his real training In his actual
work, but ht may begin with knowl-
edge Of It's principles that will greatly
aid him. T2 this extent "A college course

WHAT A sR oeeRooM SHOULD 90


There Is q m pdern definition Of bride
groom which little cruel certainly.
but which pretty well describes the posi-
ton Of that parsonage. A bridegroom Is
said to be thing in black coat who
attends weddings. And II is quite true
that In point of importance he ranks
very low down. indeed In the eyes of the
spectator. Yet there is not the slightest
reason really Ehy he should appear In
such very pbor light as he too often
does.
lie need not for instance, come into
church or the room as II he were being
led to execution. He need not hang his
head as II caught in the commission Of a
crime, or blurlder about with an awk-
wardness which makes every girl present
feel thankful she Is not In the brides
shoes.
No doubt hid position ia painful and
trying. He feels that he Ia the target for
all eyes, when in fact, he Is nothing OF
the kind. Let him start by convincing
himself that NIB one Is likely to waste a
glance on him when there are the bride
and the bridesmaids to be looked at, and
he will find 1t ,Iasier to preserve his self
possession. LIZ must try to look happy,
no matter how he feels.
Can worse compliment be paid to the
girl he has induced to marry him than
looking as II he regretted his folly? He
must try to look manly, not only for her
sake, but for bis own, for she Is very
likely to regret her decision at the last
moment when She aces how it seems to
affect him. He shouli look proud.
Surely 1t ought TO be the proudest
moment of his life; he should be elated,
and not ashamed. He should be in good
spirits, vet moi carried away by them.
A joculsr bridegroom is a thing one has
only to see 0nck to remember with hor-
ror for the rest of ones days.

he WEAKENED.

The strongest man on earth was work
ing like u demon, for there was large
and very enthusiastic audience, and the
shouts and hand clappiug were the
sweetest sound that could have struck
his ears. So he toiled nightly. He
lifted great weights snd he juggled enor-
nous dumb-bells. He hung suspended
from the Roman column, and he prom
enaded around with an iron bar on his
shoulder and super clinging TO each end
Of the bar. At last. flushed, perspiriug
and happy, he came to the front and
said:
Ladies and gentlemen: With your
kind attention I will now attempt one OF
the most tremendous feats OF strength
ever seen on the stage. will twist.
break aud shstter between nv fingers
any coin which YOU may hand to me
viii any gentleman throw u coin upon
the STAGE"
Up came few nickels, and the strong
man rent them In two by the marvellous
twists OF the sinewy fingers. The crowd
cheered itself hoarse and the strong
man bowed awkwardly. Then he spoke
again:
ANY more coins to be brokeng"
A large man In brown ulster got up
10 the back OF the house.
Excuse me, Mr. Hercules" he said,
''but can you break a $40 bill?"
And the strong man left the stage
with bitter groan.-Chicago News.

DEDUCTION AND CONCLUSION.
HE WOULD NOT HAVE CLAIMED THE
TEAKETTLE FOR A MILLION
DOLLARS.

There was man riding on the rear
platform of Grand River Avenue car
the other afternoon with package be-
tween his feet, and this package attract
ed the attention Of q little man who got
on at Second Avenue. Presently he
queried:
Ever read Sherlock Holmes?"
"Yes, sir" replied the man with the
"Great hand to deduct and conclude,
wasn't he:''

'sBut no greater than am. For In
stance. you have a teakettle in that
paper. II follows that you are a married
man. Being married man 1t follows
that your wife has been asking you
about four times a week for the last
year to buy that kettle. Having been q
year 10 buying It, the inference is that
you are absent-minded In general way
and have little concern for things around
the house. The chances are that you
will leave the te ikettle In the car when
you get of and forget that you ever
bought 1t. Am correct?'

"You have lots OF gall to talk to me
as you have" Interrupted the teakettle
man.
III was simply trying to prove to you
that Sherlock Holmes only"
"What do care about Sherlock
Holmes! Who are YOU, sir, that you
presume to be so familiar"
"My name Is Horntackle, and like to
deduce and conclude. Being an irascible
man, 1t NATURALLY follows that your poor
wife has
IF had you on the sidewalk, I'd
punch your head, sir. You have said
quite enough. I'll remember your mug,
and II ever catch you on the ground
IN teach you manners"
With that he got on. lie not only got
of, but left his teakettle. The little man
held 1t up to him and waved It on high
and yelled TO him, and the conductor
stopped the car, but the man would not
return for IL. After having been told
that he would leave that teakettle be-
hind and after having left IL, he would
not have claimed II for million dollars.
