Interesting to Teachers

There has recently come to the at
tention OF the AVALANCHE, some In
formation relative to the new Michi-
gan Normal school located at Mt.
Pleasant, which will be of in terest to
our many readers. The aim OF the
new Normal Is to prepare teachers
for the district schools and the grades
Of the graded schools. Like the
State Normal at Ypsilanti. it grants
certificates which exempts the hold
ers from the endless bother and ex-
pense Of yearly examinations.
The Central Normal offers two
courses. One Is a short course de-
signed to prepare teachers for district
schools and can be finished by good
students In about year. Itleads to
four years. certificate valid through
out the State.
The other course Is longer and pre-
pares teachers for graded school work.
High School grad yates can finish the
course in one year. The certificate
is valid throughout the state for six
years IL the holder teaches with sue
cess.
The yearly expenses Of students are
remarkably low. No young person Of
pluck need lack a good preparation
for teaching when the state so gener-
ously offers such opportunities at q
nominal price. The demand for Nor
NAL trained teachers Is growing and
some school boards refuse tn hire
teachers who have not had Normal
instruction.
The school opens september 7th.
Information may be had by address
ing the Principal.

Toncne and TnHx.

There is revolt among the young women
students of the University of Chicago. Ac-
cording to a dispatch they are belligerent,
and have crossed the trocha. And it is all
on account of tongue. Now, the girls have
no objections to tongue in the abstract.
They are especially fond of the nimble
tongue which tells the tales of the times
with embellishments suited to the occa-
sion, and dote upon the tongue that lisps
of love between parted teeth behind dud-
ish little mustache. They are proud of
the tongues which serve them so well
personally, Notwithstanding the seeming
hardships of overwork which are some-
times imposed upon the glib and willing
little members These several tongues,
however, are in no wise connected with
the subject matter of the revolt. They
are all under the tongue of good repute,
as are also all of the parties to the diff
ferences, except the tongues specifically
complained of.
The fact is, the girls have gotten tired
of picked tongue on their dinner tables.
They say they are compelled to eat pick
led tongue whether they wish to do so or
not with them it is not meek of moth
ing" but tongue or nothing; and they do
say that picked tongue that is served to
them is not the kind of tongue that ought
to be placed before a girl with an of her
natural senses in good order. Instead of
turning it under their tongues as a deli
cate morsel, they are obliged to smother
1t in mustard or some other condiment
and swallow Il between breaths The
commander-in-chiefo of the insurgent girls
says they have stood poor food In silence
for a long time. but the picked tongue
became SO bad that the girls resolved to
give tongue to their righteous indigna-
tion. and fight for an Improvement in the
menu. Indeed. the commander-in-chief
says that twenty-nine of the girls were re-
Gently made so sick by the picked tongue
that it was all they could do to keep from
ejecting their own tongues in their par
oxysms OF nausea.
As may be supposed, there is another
side 70 the story And there is where the
taffy comes in. The housekeeper of the
establishment, who is responsible for the
bills of fare and the cooking says the
girls have of late contracted the molasses
candy habit. 1t has become almost as bad
as the chewing gum habit. They munich
upon the coagulated sweetness at all
hours. with the result that their digestive
apparatus is upset That is the way IL
was when the twenty-nine girls got sick
after eating picked tongue. The tongue
and the afy could not agree upon the
internal economy, and had the biggest
kind OF row between themselves. % the
distress Of the girls.
The outlook just at present suggests
warm fight Of some sort. stil. there is a
probability that a rapproehement be-
tween the insurgents and the housekeeper
can be secured by arbitration. each prin-
cipal eoncedlng a little something.

A story of Edmund Keane.

A good story is told of Edmund Kean
in connection with the fight in "Richard
ILL.," says an exchange. OF course, in the
good old days. of the legitimate drama,
very great stress was laid upon the sword
fights; and Richmond would belabor the
exhausted Richard with primes and
rounds" and ''headblows' till the gal
lery rose att the actors. Kean was cele-
brated for the ferocity of his fighting, and
upon a noted occasion won back the affec-
tions OF a birmingham audience by a
splendid display of points in the fight at
the end of Richard ILL., He had been
billed to appear in Birmingham sever
al times, and as often had disappointed his
audience, probably through that 'indispo-
sition" which clouded his closing days. At
last he appeared; but his Birmingham aU-
dience sat through his remarkable per-
formance of Richard in stony silence. This
exasperated the famous actor; and when
he came to the fight he fought as he had
never done before. The effect was electri-
cal. The house rung with wild applause as
the curtain fell upon Boswith Field. 1t
shouted and raYed for 'Kean, Kean,
Keanw The curtain slowly rose, and there
was Richard dead upon the stage. AS the
curtain commenced its descent, the dead"
Richard half rose, and leaning on one hand
shook his clenched fist at the audience and
said, What do you think of that, you
damned nailers ?''

nookkeeping on the Farm.

Probably not more than one farmer out
OF every one hundred keeps an account in
detail of the outgo and income of the
farm. The ninety y-and-nine permit things
TO run at haphazard, so far as account
keeping is concerned, leaving it to the
merchant, the factor and the commission
merchant TO keep all of the accounts of
supplies purchased and produce sold No
memorandum whatever is taken OF small
purchases and sales. At the end of the
year naturally. the farmer cannot tell
whether he has made profits from his
farm or not. If he pays OUT and has
a little something left over, he concludes
that he has done fairly well-how well
he does not know. If he comes out in
debt, he cannot understand for the life
Of him where it all went" and concludes
that the times are very hard and the fell
lows who have been doing the bookkeep-
ing are not over-honest.
Farming should be regarded as busi-
ness. enterprise, entered into for the pur-
pose Of taking profits every year, just
as a man enters into mercantile or man
ufacturing pursuits. No merchant or
manufacturer would think of running
business without keeping a set of books
and having all transactions involving the
business entered into them. That is the
only way it IS possible to run business
enterprise successfully. When the mer-
chant ends the year with no profits he
knows that he has sold goods too cheaply
or that his expenses have been too great,
and he sets to work to sell for better
prices or to cut down expenses, or both.
When the farmer finishes the year with
out profits, he does not know precisely
what is the matter He has nothing to indi-
cate to him where the trouble is. Then
demagogue is apt to come along and tell
him that certain legislation is needed to
make times better, and the farmer is in
a frame of mind to believe him.
Bookkeeping OH the farm will not. OF
course, give the farmer a better market
for his produce or make his lands more
productive. But it will show him where
his money goes. and bring to his mind
items that might be dispensed with If it
DtCdHlt necessary 10 IeuuCt 6ApeASeSs
Ordinarily the matter Of reducing ex-
penses is gone into blindly, and costly
false economy is practiced in cutting off
items which are really needed ''in the bus
mess" With a carefully kept account
of all expenditures and receipts, the aver
age farmer would soon be able to tell
precisely where to leave off and where to
take on for the best advantage.
Heretofore the talk among farmers has
been, what can we plant successfully?
The talk has been productive of good re-
suits, and should be continued. But 1t
should be supplemented with the query,
how can we operate our farms at profit?
There is where the argument in favor of
bookkeeping comes in. Let the farmers
ascertain what their lands will produce
best, then let them keep as strict accounts
of their operations as if they were run
ming a store and each acre were a credit
customer, andit will not be a great while
before each season will show a balance on
the credit side of the ledger.
