Beardsley of the board then gave his views of the vertical svs- tenn f penmansbip which has just been introduced into the schools, and emphq- sized the necessity of the teachers first making themselves familiar with it to be able to teach it.

THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

According to announcement, teach ers' meeting was held in the village schoolhouse, Friday afternoon, Novem- Der 5. There were present three mem- bers of the school board and all of the teachers of the public schools in town with one exception. The meeting was called to order at 1.30 by 0. L. Spooner of the school board. There was no reg uIar program but number of informal talks on different subjects pertaining to the management of schools in general, and Kent schools in particular. The the school board; the subject arithmetic.

He 8 short space of time and would there i fore be obliged to coufine his remarks to few ideas on notation, numeration and decimal fractions. Mrs o. c.

 management of school. She empha. sized first the necessity of getting the at tention of the scholars, then to get the school well in hand 80 as to be able to control it. Secondly, to keep the scholars busy so that they would not acquire 8 habit of idleness. She recommended written work in schools, and also spoke of gymnastic exercises as being an aid to mental as we'll as physical development Miss Helen Barclay had an interesting paper on primary work and spoke ol some of the methods she employed il her school, particularly in the line Q reading and number work. Messrs Johl Chase, Clifford Spooner, and s. ". Fer l guson spoke of what they considered tn best methods of teaching reading.

 his purse strings were ever open to the good of humanity. He never turned deaf ear to any solicitations for charity and every pastor found in him 8 stead fast friend and supporter. He donated generously to the building of the chapel here and it's subsequent support, and for many years attended the Congregational church at North Cornwall, which was ever dear to his heart. Every Sunday,
 with his large family, he worshiped
 there, and in his three seated conveyance could always be found room for a neigh

 getting there. Being of an extremely
 affectionate disposition, his feelings were
 easily touched and at the pathetic parts
 of sermon the tears could often be seen
 silently stealing down his cheeks, to be
 quietly brushed away, that none might
 see how deeply he was moved. No mat
 ter how heavy his burdens, how many
 his trials, he never murmured or com-
 plained. Everything was borne patient
 ly and submissively; loving, honoring
 and obeying his God in all things. He spoke i'll of no one, and men who labored for him for years have said they never heard him utter an angry word.

years ago he had a severe attack of the grip, from which he never fully recover ed, and realizing that his infirmities
 would sooner or later compel him to give up his responsibilities on the farm, he dispored of it to his son, Huston. who sold his interest in the firm of Cochrane Brothers to Robert and James C"chranP, and built for himself a fine, modern resi- dence upon it where, with his family, he has settled for the remainder of his life.
 During these years Mir Cochrane rented his two houses on the farm, living in the village, and morning, noon and night his familiar figure could be seen crossing the river to attend to his duties there. But it
 WAS NOT HIS NATURE TO REMAIN IDLE even ID his old age, and after selling his farm he fitted up one of his buildings in the village for 8 grist mill, where he worked until the day of his death. He never entered into speculations or made large profits, but, little by little, by con. stant and persistent effort he accumular- ed an estate for his family that shall long speak for him. Truly, IA good man leaveth an inheritance to his children"
 We take the following extract from the History of Cornwall, written by Hon T. s. Gold in 1887: "Mr Cochrane has 8 large family, mostly married and settled in West Cornwall, some of whom hold important offices in town affairs. Re- specta biity and a handsome property are the result of ii dustry." In Dea R. R. Pratt's Records of the Second Eccle- sastical Society of Cornwall, he says: 'Mr Cochrane joined the church with Y others on the first Sabbath in July, 1865. Then mentions his liberality when the chapel was built. In his record of the Cochrane family, there is this refer ence: "The father, James Cochrane, has been an active, industrious citizen and in 8 large measure is such an e now as he travels through his 80th year.

James COchrane. LESSONS FROM THE LIFE OF A ODDLY MAN.
Died, October 8, 1897.

Had James Cochrape lived only six days longer he would have been 83 years ot age but our Heavenly Father, in His infinite love and wisdom, has called him home, and the grace of God which so richly blessed his peaceful life, calmly awaited him at the end. Step by step he has reached the heights sublime, and we who know this goodness was his great ness" can only stand below and wonder at 1t.
 HIS PATIENT, UNsELFISH LIFE is an example which we all, both young and old, mig ht pr reliably follow, not orly in the piritual but in the temporal sense |; especially the young man who is obliged to begin life at the foot of the ladder as he did. For, commencing life, as it were, with nothing of worldly possessions, but endowed with clear brain, keen intel lect and a strOrg constitution combined with an uncommonly patient and persis- tent nature, he terminated it one of the wealthiest and most 1T f1uertisl citizens of our town.

MAN.

About 1857 he moved to the F'mill house." where the ''J. Mallinson Shear Works" are now located, and took charge of the mill for three years. In 1860 he moved to the house now occupied by Mrs o'Cain, and whiles living there bought the property where he lived until his death, and where he purchased the gro cery business from MT Vaill, which he carried on, in connection with the meat business, very successfully, for nearly 20 years. His three sons, Robert N., Huston, and James A., now grown to manhood, were ready to enter into busi- ness life. Accordingly Mir Cochrane, ever interested in the welfare of his children, purchased for them the large building in which they are located and gave up his business to them, which they have eince steadily increased until the present time when the business firm ot "Cochrane Blothers' is considered one of the largest and most enterprisine along the Berkshire line.
