the advantage Of storage reservoirs,
very few have undertaken to con.

broken the Use in Glover vslley and
now has teams and men at work ON q

earth work dam to hold the surplus
water in check is TO be three hundred
feet long, twenty.f'mr feet average

THOUGHTFUL DISC SSION

There was a noticeable preponderance Of
ladies in the audience which assembled in
the Grand Opera House this morning in at

none was there from perfunctory motives.
All present followed the remarks OF the

of the N. E. A and state superintendent
of the New York schools, presided, and
after prayer was offered by the Rev. DR..
D. ]. Stafford of St. Patrick's Church he
made some remarks pertinent to the pres
ent tendency of the modern educational
system Not enough attention was given,
he declared, to the study of the real his
tory of the United States There was too
much of a tendency to admit fads through
the front doors of our school houses, while
the absolute essentials of education were
forced to find entrance from the rear.
The Essentials of History.
He then introduced Principal w. F. Cor
dy OF Hartford, Conn, who spoke for half
an hour on the essentials in United States
history to be taught in elementary schools.
The great aim of education, he said, was
to reveal physical and human life to the
individual, to the end that he may under.
stand his relations to them, and especially
his social obligations to his fellow men

Europe and their descendants in America? :?
Whatever accomplishments have been
imposed upon them by superior race have
not materially improved their condition
The contact of European civilization with
lower races had proved, in most cases,
detrment. This fact was significant. If
lower natures copy the faults of the higher
ones and not their virtues, then they have
been leveled upward in the wrong direction.
Instability of Administration.
Another elemsnt of weakness in our edu-
cattonal system" said the speaker, ..as It
is administered. Is that Of instability, and
by virtue Of the presence Of this fact 1t Is
one Of the most serious drawbacks to uni
