4 Relic Of the Past,

\ relic of pioneer DAYS has just turned
mp. This is in the shape Of an invitation
to a dancing party given at Plymouth
Hail, Stevens Point, on Wednesday
evening, December 24, 1856 1t is
printed on paper, a neat little folder
with fancy raised work in the form of a
scroll around the front page, and was
undoubte dly something exec ptiohally
fine in those days. The mana
gers for this party were as follows, being
selected from the city and surrounding
towns: Stevens Point, Slas Walsworth
and Oscar Wiswall; Plover, Homer
Drake and John Stumpf; Eau Pleine,
Job Erwin and Jake Purdy; Grand
Rapids, D. B. Wvlie and Lemuel
Kroner; Wausau, Charles Single and
Thomas Hinton; Little Bull, Henry Cate
and Dewitt Brown. The floor managers
were VIM. Walton and James LaCount.
The music for the event was undoubt-
edly furnished by Michael A. Rousseau
and David LaCuunt. the latter now
being DR.. LaCuunl of Wausau, both OF
whom were violinists, and their services

Conditions of Trade.

Hostilities have not as yet changed
last weeks conditions. There is much
postpOnement Of orders by men who
do not know what they are waiting for,
and much restriction of loans by banks
which are abundantlv strong. All this
checks rew business, and vet the
volume Of transactions through clear
inc houses is s. per cent. larger than in
the same week of 1892, with no foreign
trouble. But This increase would be
much larger but for speculative stagna-
ton here, New York clearings being
,. l per cent. smaller than in 1892, but
outside clearings only 60 per cent.
larger. The railroads are doing great
business, 81 per cent. larger than in
1892 in April earnings thus far, and IS 8
larger than last year, and eastbound
tonnage from Chicago has been 254 800
in three weeks, against 161 ,SSS last year,
and 234 ,994 in 1892. Yet many contracts
and purchases are deferred, in most
cases because men do not know what
the banks mean to do.

and women, thought nothing of going

party, summer or winter. In fact some
were known to comefrom as far south

to attend dancing party at Stevens

$500 per couple, and musicians received
as high as S75 per night each.-Stevens

tanned the following item in recent

We have received from the Green
Bay, Wis. Business College, a package
Of students specimens of business
writing. Conventional words of praise
will hardly do justice to these speci-
mems, many of them being almost up
10 the professional line. Z. o. Folsom
and H. A. Cables, instructors, under
whom these specimens were developed,
are enthusiastic disciples of the
muscular movement. That they teach
it and teach it successfully is evident
from the specimens of writing referred
TO. Ease in execution, conception of
form, rapidity of motion, and correct
application of movement, characterize
these specimens. Two of the best
writers were Emmett w. and John D..
Carey, both students of the shorthand
department. Other exceptionally good
specimens and especially worthy of
notice came from J. H. Schmidt, R.

to erect new building 3Ox40 adjacent
to the office in Centralia in which their
electric outfit will be placed. The old
mill has served lis usefulness and will
be torn down TO make room for the

! As l have said on more than one
occasion, the Grand Rapids schools
| have been fortunate in gathering a
/ body Of able, conscientious, hard work
! ing grade teachers-this too at moderate
remuneration for their services. The
offers made by the board in their
| teachers list and schedule of wages is
not to be taken as the boards or COM
munity's estimate of the value of these
/ services. 1t is, in view of the present
demands for better equipment in
seating, flooring, grade libraries and
ornamented walls, the hest provision
they can make, trusting to future
conditions to allow them to do what
wealthier communities are doing in
the way of teachers wages. Definite,
hearty expressions of appreciation
given directly to the teachers who have
been working on year after year with
out advance in wages, would certainly
90 long way toward repaying them
for the hours of loving labor thev put
IN working and planning how to busy
and better the pupils in their charge.
This expression the patrons certainly
owe these teachers.
~
AS the end of the school wear
approaches, each teacher is addressing
herself to the task of determening
whom she will promote. Upon two
points concerning promotions he
instructions are definite. ~ No pupil
Will be received into higher grade
whose card shows conditions that have
not been met by the beginning of the
school year, (2) every pupil must be
able to speak and write English and do
il automatically up to the standard one
could reasonably expect of pupil of
that age and grade. The high school
cannot feel that grade work in English
is we'll done when pupils are not
reasonable good spoilers, able to express
themselves i'll clear, complete sentences
these sentences naturally grouped
about the topic they concern and the
proper topics considered in the discuss
ion of any given subject. If there be
any central subject determining promot-
ion, it is not arithmetic, but the
automatic speaking and writing of
reasonable clear English. Further Oh
these lines, the suggestion has been
made that promotions must be made
with regard not only to what the pupil
has done but what he is able to do.
Pupils whose age, preparation and
physical conditions have just been
sufficient to get them through tie sixth
grade are not ALWAYS fit material for
the seventh grade, the same is true of
promotions from the eighth grade to
the high school. To repeat. power to
DO is more valuable than things done
and i'll this, examinations and class
recitatiOns may or may not be a
sufficient test. The teachers Judgment
is the ultimate authority in this estimate.
*
IN this connection it is we'll to keep
in mind that pupils are sent to school
to grow and do, not to he showed along
from grade TO grade, and that the paren Mt
should give hearty acquiescence to The
judgment of teacher and superinten-
dent in the matter Of promotion. At
least promotion for promolion's sake
