when the wildcatter was more alert than

of the activity in field operations may be
had when 1t is stated that April 1 the

monthly average of new operations last
year was only 232. and the total number
of wells completed only 1854 for the en-
tire year. Whether the present search is
successful or not there will be an enor-
nous amount of money spent in prospect
ing. No less than Sc 900 200 is now being
expended in new work. Within a few

1t is reported that certain institute in
structor in West Virginia asked how many
teachers present were subscribers of their
county papers and not many hands went up.

posing to be asprants for public service and
yet did not support their county paper, is
said to have been literal roasting Morgan

Same way here. OF the nearly 200
teachers in this county only subscribe
for the JOURNAL, this after the fact is
wellknown that no other county paper
pays so much attention to educational
matters and, incidentally, promotes so
greatly the interest of the teachers as
we'll as pupils.
The JOURNAL does not know how to
account for it, but that teachers are
numerically the poorest patrons of the
local press is class fact established.
Only a few weeks ago principal
pointed out an article in the JOURNAL
of so much excellence that he had
preserved it for illustrative and de-
monstrative purposes in lectures which
will come up under his system in a
certain course of study next fall.

are also making the miners clean gift
of 30 cents per ton.
Then along comes the Homecoming

His means are very large and are freely ex-

Besides his large financial, coal and milling
interests he has one of the most fertile farms
in the county, which is devoted to a general
system of progressive farming, and includes
the raising of choice breeds of cattle; he is

education must be simple. 1t must present

the plain, simple and always easily intel
lgible principles on which in every depart
ment human knowledge is based.

This is illustrated in everything that depends

people so as to give them the greatest possible
success, and no such success is possible unless
the methods of attaining it are characterized
by the utmost simplicity.
If the writers of textbooks and all Other
books will stop trying to show off what they
do not know they may the better tell what
they do know, and if they will tell it as
tersey and plainly as possible it will give q
new and vital meaning to the immense sums

mar, and the indispensable foundation
for all other studies is laid. Certainly
in the common school range geography
and arithmetic will then almost take
care of themselves.
After all, the average individual as
scholastic tree is judged mostly by
these three fruits-speaking. spelling,
writing, combining about all the
public in business and social realms
can see of male or female scholarship.
Upon the perfection of these ac-
quirements, therefore, common school
effort should be concentrated by teachers
who are equipped and trained for the
work-especialiyin writing. Indeed,
no teacher who writes a crampcd,
irregular or affected" hand, should
be deemed qualified to furnish en-
amples for little ones who are copyists
even after they acquire the sleight of
graceful penmanship.
In view Of the pre-eminent import
ance of these studies, it seems a
criminal misuse of public time, public
labor and public money, to attempt
attention to anything beyond arith-
metic and grammar.
And so the JOURNAL will ever con-
tend.
