How He Worked Bulky Horse.

From the Punxsutawney Spirit
The subject under discussion was balky
horses. John Miller. cashier Of the Citi-
zens' Bank of Big Run, had the floor. He
said:
when I was a chunk of boy my IA
Their had a balky horse which it occasion
ally fell to my lot to drive. 1t was heart
rending experience and I often exhausted
my patience and ingenuity in attempts to
make him go. He would jog along all right
on the level or down hill, but he would not
go uphill. He would just stand. If you
would lick him he would proceed to back.
Finally hit on scheme. When I came
to hill I'd just turn the brute around and
whip him and he would back I'D the hill.
When he reached the top just turned him
around and he would go down all right"

with one pressure Of one foot than to take
two steps.
Now, in view Of these magnified steps
made by the bicyclist, it would be interest
ing to know what the stature of a man
must be to make in walking the same dis
lance made by the bicyclist, with the same
number of movements of the feet. Clearly
the steps in this case must be seven and
one-half feet each, which at the lowest esti-
mate represents three steps of an ordinary
man. 1t would perhaps, be nearer the mark
to say four steps, but to be on the safe side
we call 1t three, and have made an illustra-
ton showing the comparative size OF
wheelman and pedestrian built to keep
step with him. The pedestrian must be at
least eighteen feet high.
The man with this great stature would.
after all, fall far short of making the speed
of the bicycle. There is nothing like rotary
motion; the wheel would be the winner in
any race. While the bicycle has the advan-
tage over the extremely tall pedestrian, 1t is
obvious that the tall wheelman has no ad-
vantage over the short one.

shadow "sense at war with soul"
This is the struggle in the individ-
ual and in the race, between the
body which links us with the brute
and the soul which makes us part
of spirit and ardor. AS we con-
tinue our study of this "son of his
age" we feel how he loved and rev.
erenced the truth he had to tell,
and sent this truth forth with
splendor; and in this hehas set the
example to us to reverence the work
we have to do.
We will say that the study of lit
erature then is the study of human
aspiration as set in written forms
of expression. TO pursue it intel
ligently and effectively we shall
first have to ask why we study it.
Perhaps one may wish to teach,
another to follow authorship or
journalism, another has lecturing
in view or would like to gain the
culture which comes from an &C
quaintance with letters. Whatever
may be your object the wisest plan
is to give your days and nights"
to the study of those literary artists
whose works hold the heart of hui
mainly. Remember that the first
prerequisite to the successful study
of English is an enlightened pur-
pose. Keeping this purpose con-
stantly in mind there will come to
you through this study the inspi-
ration of nobler ambition for the
use of life. and desires of a purer
character will take possession of the
soul

G. w. Bean, state superintendent
of public instruction, was in attend
ance at chapel exercises Monday
morning, and addressed the stu
dents briefly concerning the respon-
sibilities of alumni to the alma
mater. "You, as students, look
forward to months of toll They
seem long; the responsibilities seem
great now, yet these years will pass
quickly and you will soon be away
from college. Then reflect what
you may do in turn for it."
The annual defamation prize
contest instituted two years ago
will occur December 9TH. Any
student may enroll and prepare for

er annual contests have aroused
the interest of the classes, all of
whom perceive the benefit of the
drill, and owing to the much larger
attendance this year at the college,
it is expected that many capable
students will ergerly enroll for this
third contest. The faculty commit
tee on social and literary affairs
also announces the continuation of
the lecture course instituted last
year, further notice of which will

not only the students of the college
but also the townspcople and all
others interested are cordially in
vited to attend.
Prof. J. A. Balmer, of.the depart
ment of horticulture, addressed the
students at chapel, Friday morn
ing, concerning the department,
and the reasons for horticultural
studies. After defining horticul-
ture Prof. Balmer explained, in
synopsis form, the various branch
es of the study, among which he
enumerated and spoke briefly OF
pomology, vegetable gardening,
and the cultivation of flowers and
plants. Prof. Balmer's words were
not only earnest suggestions to the
department students to continue
with zeal the line ofwork they have
adopted in the growing branch of
science, but also rather exhorta-
tions that young men and women
consider horticulture as a profess
sional career, In speaking of the
possible development OF eastern
Washington and it's cspability in
comparison with Michigan and
other states as regards the produc
ton of the apple, plum, cherry, ETC.,
Prof. Balmer said; eff this land
is to be what it promises, the as
pect of the country must change,
and it will be your privilege, you
who are now pursuing these studies
carefully, and with purpose, to
make it, and to make your homes
what they ought to be-" Refer
ence was made also to the many
men and women in the vicinity of
large cities who make a livelihood
from vegetable gardening, which is
being carried on more and more
scientifically as an industry and
profession. Especially in floricul-
ture, it was stated, is there a wide
field for professional study and
work, as is shown py the statistical
expenditures of $25,0OO,OO0 in this
country in 1890 for cut flowers. Of
the 5000 florists in the United
States in 1891, 1000 were women.
The speaker deprecated the ten
dency of young people to strive
after city occupation and humor-
ously indicated by statistical COM
parison the longevity of the horti-
