TEACHERS SHOULD GO TO PROVO

The State Teachers association met
at Provo yesterday. How many of the
teachers of this city will be in at
tendance we do not know, but there
should be a good many. Superintend-
ent Millspaugh has taken much interest
in the meeting, and it is understood
that he has urged all teachers who
possibly can, to attend. 1t is to be
hoped that his urging will not be in
vain.
This city is the educational center of
the state, and those who are engaged
in educational work should do all in
their power to encourage the efforts
of those engaged in like work through
out the state. They should hail a
chance to meet and make the acquaint-
ance of teachers from various parts of
the state 1t would mean an increased
kindly feeling for this city throughout
the state; and it would also mean a
kindlier feeling for the Salt Lake teach
ers There is an impression throughout
the state that a majority of the teach
ers of this city have no interest what
ever in Utah save to draw their sala-
ries; it even exists in this city. Why
do not our teachers do what they can
to dispel this impression? They will
have no better opportunity to do this
than to attend the State Teachers as
ISOLATION meeting that began its fourth
annual meeting at provo yesterday. In a
professional way they will be more
than repaid; in other respects the gain
viii be no less great.

A HYGIENIC HOME.

Ny wife and I are trying hard,
To live on healthful diet,
We read the food chart by the yard,
And run our kitchen by it,
We've banished from our bills of fare
All that such guides condemn;
True hygiene is all our care;
AS planned and taught by them.
For breakfast, coffee is tabooed,
Hot cakes and eggs forbidden
And milk. since it is oft-imbued
With germs profuse, though hidden;
Bread is unwholesome, so is steak;
Submissive to our lot,
Oatmeal and graham gems we take,
And drink boiled water, hot.
For dinner soup will never do,
And oysters typhoid nourish;
Salads, entrees, and ices, TOO,
Are mere dyspeptic flourish;
Potatoes (by the last advice)
Are poisonous, we re told;
We eat rare meat, chopped fine, with rice
And drink boiled water, cold.
For supper-some professors teach
''Tis best to go without 1t.
But since discretien's left to each,
We take our choice about it;
On chicken. waffles, tea, and cake,
We are forbid to feed;
But gluten waters, cocoa (weak)
And prunes, are all we need
1t grieves US much our friends to view
So reckless in their diet;
Our wholesome menu we pursue
And beg of them to try it;
But appetites ungodly sway
Their nature so enthrallS,
We cannot get a guest to stay
Within our healthful walls!

a Drowning Achievement.

New York Herald: The end of the 10th
century had been reached. and the new
women met in solemn convention to tell
of the achievements of the ten decades
which had gone.
A tail, self-reliant woman in the bloom
ers of radiant youth stood before the
thronr and said: Il have defeated the
last man. golf champion with great
slaughter.
Cheer on cheer arose from the assem-
blage, and tall maiden with law briefs
under her arm proclaimed that she had
been appointed the receiver of a corner
grocery store, and had wound up its af-
fairs in less than two years. The Welllin
was materially damaged.
And t. said an amazon in all the
pomp of glorious war. have conquered
strange lands by fire and sword and

The laurel toque was about to be placed
on the amazon's imperious brow, and

slender little creature. clad in mouse
colored raiment pushed her way to the
very front ranks of the assemblage.

JOHNS HOPKINS NEED AID.

1t will be recalled that a year ago
some of the public spirited citizens of
Baltimore came to the aid Of Johns
Hopkins university, aid made neces-
sary through the failure of the Balti-
more and Ohio railroad to pay any divi-
dends. There is less prospect now of
the road paying dividends than there
was then. This means more or less
embarrassment to the great university
1t is said that the university authori-
ties will appeal to the legislature of
Maryland for aid. If the appeal is
made it is to be hoped the legislature
will respond generously.
It is not too much to say that Johns
Hopkins has done more than any in
stitution of learning in the land to
raise teaching to the university stand
ard as understood at the great seats of
learning in Europe, Oxford and Cam
bridge, Paris, Berlin and other places
where the leading universities are To-
Gated.
It would be quite impossible to esti-
mate the value of its influence on the
institutions of higher learning through
out the country. It would be nothing
less than a national loss to have
the universitys usefulness impaired
through lack of funds. Many of the
wealthy men of the country are am
bilious to found institutions of learn
ing or to give to those already found
ed. If they have a real desire to aid
the cause of learning Johns Hopkins
affords them a splendid opportunity to
indulge that desire to the best advan-
tage and to add a truly greater lustre
to their names than the establishing Of
new college or university would. Aid
to Johns Hopkins would give them a
prestige that aid to no new venture
could.

There was a time when the word
senator of the United States was sy-
nonymous with craftsmanship, schol-
arly dignity, and lofty patriotism, but
craftsmanship and patriotism have
given place to the spirit of commercial
ism, which now dominates every sphere
of activity, and which seeks to control
all sources of thought and influence
in the molding of public sentiment. The
only qualification now necessary for a
seat in the senate is an unlimited
amount of money" says the Louisville
Dispatch. The senate is very much
less of 2 millionaire's club today than
it was q couple of decades ago; and
many men have seats there who have
very little money.

AMERICAN HORSES FOR 80 nOFl


Secretary Wilson is now interesting
himself in finding a market for Amer
lean horses in Europe. With this end
in view he has employed an agent to
collect all available information con-
corning the peculiarities of the differ
ent foreign horse markets, especially
the requirements and regulations con-
trolling the purchase of horses for Eu-
ropean armies, those that are most in
demand, the present source of supply
and the prevailing prices, says a Wash
ington correspondent. It is his purpose
to make the inquiry thorough in every
particular and present such informa-
ton to our breeders and farmers gen
orally as will enable them to deter
mine intelligently where it will be to
their advantage to compete for q for
eign market European governments
send agents abroad every year to pur-
chase horses for their cavalry and ar
tillery service. These agents generally
visit the United States, but some have
of late years turned their attention to
the Argentine Republic with Indifferent
success. The complaint generally heard
concerning the horses of the United
States does not refer to their breed,
size or price, but to the refusal or neg
lect of our stock-growers to prepare
for the demands. Generally they make
no effort to secure the trade, and this
indifference has diverted the agents at
times to other horse-raising countries
The secretary believes that when our
breeders understand the foreign de-
mand and are instructed how the mar
kets can be best reached and controlled
the large profits viii induce them to
compete for the trade.
If American horse breeders have
made no effort to secure the European
market for cavalry and artillery horses,
the reason probably is that the prices
paid for them have been no induce
ment. Europe must have cheap horses
for army purposes for the reason that
so many are required Horses in the
United States have, until within two
or three years. brought very good prices
and there has been no need to look for
a foreign market. In all probability
