satisfactorily and wisely recommend
studies and plans for the pupils. He
advised getting the teacher who could
do the most work and good-regard-
less of salary.
Right here Prof. Torrens and Miss
Peterson of the high school, brought a
class of high school pupils in the room
and the group sang several patriotic
selections, all of which were encored.
Mr.. Prendergast resumed his talk.
He thought that the placing of pupils
in classes should belong to the teach
or. The management of unruly pu-
pills belongs to her until the trustees
services are necessary. The teacher
cannot expel. She must not get into
a hand-to-hand fight with the pupil,
and if a pupil refuses to recite, or
study a lesson for a second time, or
refuses to erase improper language
written in his or another book, the
teacher should say, every we'll, we will
excuse you until the Board of Trustees
act on your case" If the pupil re-
turns to the school before the Board
acts he is committing misdemeanor
and can be punished by law for the
same. The teacher should tell her
story before the Board and if the
Board desires it may call in other pu-
pills to verify or deny her story. The
Board can then suspend, or reinstate.
The speaker stated that it was very
dangerous precedent to set aside the
ruling of the teacher and make her
take back pupil. "Rather get the
teacher to resign or let her teach out
her term and get new teacher at the
end of the TERM" he said.
Mr.. Prendergast stated that trustees
could discharge teacher on proper
grounds. such as incompetency, etc.,
and if a teacher feels aggrieved she
can go into courts and get her rights.
If the Court decides that she was i'm
properly discharged she can recover
her pay for the time during which she
was suspended. As the trustees are
the instruments of the district the dis
trict must stand the loss unless it is
SHOWN that the trustee has been neg
ligent in Office.
1t was here that the speaker, after
taking a fall out of the ancient or clas-
steal education, stated that a man in
order to be useful must have a good
judgment. "They must learn to reason
and when they do so they have an
education already to go out into the
world and work for themselves"
On the question of text books the
speaker came out unhesitatingly in
favor of free text books. He said that
there we're 1000 school districts in the
State and about 5000 of them have
already adopted the free text book
system. He could not say that it was
an unqualified success but he could
say that from reports received about
SO out of 100 districts the books we're
reported as being kept in good condi-
ton by the pupils. eff teacher is
watchful, faithful to her trust, the
books will come back in good shape
and the system will be success. Be-
fore handing out the books to the pu-
pill the teacher should see that it is in

John, you must stop;l don't care

"John, John, you must stop, here
comes papa, and"
"the faintest shadow upon it, as any
man might do who did not love and

"Bang, bang" went the reports from
a double barreled gun, according to
Johns tale.
Whist, shoe, and John flew over the
lawn, across sidewalks, through alleys,
yelling "Police" until he reached his
final homestead several blocks away.
HE shoot, he shoot, the old man he
shoot, yelled our hero in telling his
experience after he had recovered his
breath. "Don't you go near there;
the old man he shoot, he shoot; don't.
My, vat a narrow escape I have had.
He shoot, he shoot, the old man he
shoot, and I never saw him before.'
There was great laughter in the
home of Isabel johnson two minutes
after Johns 1eeting form had passed
over lawn, sidewalk and alley. The
favorite lover removed the paternal
mask and garments, discarded the gun,
and revealed the true Charley Dun
dee. Isabel, aware of his incog. well
coined him and showered enconiums
upon his effort, and the doves of peace
lowered over the couple.
John Jasperson calls no more to
rehearse his drama of love. He ad-
vises Charley Dundee to keep away
from the place because ''the old man
will shoot" And Charley laughs a
chuckling laugh and wonders where
and when a better coup was ever
made.
The Mount Lebanon Shakers recent
ly performed great deed of charity,
although it was not designed as a
charity, being nothing more or less
than an advertising scheme. It how
ever, resulted in great good just the
same. They gave away 1000 bottles
of their Digestive Cordial to those suf-
fering from stomach arrangements.
It was so effective in curing those
who used the remedy that they were
loud in their praises of it and in con-
sequence a large demand for the Cor
dial was at once created.
The druggists OF this town have lit
tie books that tell all about it. Di-
gestive Cordial creates appetite, aids
digestion and brings about rapid in

WILLIE WOLFSON'S WOES.
THE YOUNG COLUMBUS PAPER
DRUMMER IN TROUBLE.
He Lived Like Lord at the AragOn.
and Did Not Respond to the Cali
for Cash. Out on Bond.

Willie Wolfson, a young man who has
made frequent trips to Dawson as the
representative of thu Wolfson Card Co..
OF Columbus, is in trouble in Atlanta.
The story of Wolfson's troubles is told
in the Atlanta Constitution. Willie Ell.
joyed the privileges OF the hostelry with
out paying the bill thereto. The Con-
stitution says:
Three weeks ago Willie VOLTS N. a
young boy Is years of age Who3e home
is in Columbus, but is well known here.
appeared at the Aragon hotel and ap-
piled for board. He told the manager
that he was an employs of Wellhouse &
Sons, this city, in the capacity of trav-
cling salesman. The hotel company
took him in on this statement and gave
him handsome suit of rooms.
Since then Willie has been living like a
lord. He has enjoy d to the fullest ex-
tent every privilege of that hostelry ir-
respective of expense. he was rather
neatly dressed and of very boyish ap-
pearance. He appeared to have lots of
cash and was served with the best the
house afforded.
Several days ago the hotel company
presented an account TO the youth. For
some reason or other be did not have the
money. The management then grew
suspicious and inquired of Wellhouse &
Sons if any such man was in their en-
ploy. 1t is said that Mr.. Frank Well
house made negative reply.
Consequently late Monday night Wolf,
son was ordered to settle his bill. Not
being able to do so he was conducted to
the station house and was taken in
charge by the detectives.
Yesterday afternoon about 5 O'Clock
MeSsrs. Frank j. Coken and II. H, Wolf
son appeared at the station house, and
signing the young mans bond he was
released.
Chief Connolly communicated with
Wellhouse & Son last night and they re-
piled that WOlfson was in their employ
'when he paid them Sill" 1t is evident
they meant from this peculiar statement
that the young man owed them instead
OF them owing him.
