REVISE THE COURSE OF STUDY

There are a number Of reforms in the
management Of Salem school district
that should be undertaken. The people
should demand and insist ON reducing
the annual interest charge 10 the lowest
notch. There is no doubt but that the
board could get all the money they need
at four and five per cent.
The school bonds on the East Salem
school will soon fall dne, drawing eight
per cent They should be refunded
with four percent home bonds just like
the city debt. The pride aud patriotism
of a. rich community as this should
forbid selling these bonds away from
home.
The voting Of $500 10 paint the
school houses undoubtedly had job
back of IT, The buildings need some
paint but The interior walls and
ceilings, on which the eyes of the chill
dren have 10 b. fixed all day need tint
ing far more The unnatural light pro.
duced by such walls destroys the eye.
sight.
What II worse needed than reducing
inlerst aud myopia is a thorough re-
vision of the course of study and rules
used in the schools u salem. They are
just about a. Mr.. Supt. Randle drew
them up ten years ago. With some very
inferior textbooks, defective course u
study has made good work impossible
ia our schools. n teachers taught only
what II in the course of study it would
leave Salem children far in the rear Of
from other towns. Until this
year very few pupils from the Salem
schools have secured teachers certif-
Gates. But teachers are more and more
extending their work beyond the text
book course, and this year nearly all
Salem candidates for examination
passed.
The course Of study ut Salem was
shown TO be deficient by the committee
appointed 10 investigate that matter.
City Supt Yoder and hisassociaie prin.
cipals will perform an important ser

ANIMAL EXPRESSION.

An English agricultural journal says
that the eye in man and horse is a pow
erful organ of expression. The lips are
perhaps equally indicative, as denoting
the momentary temper as well as the
permanent character of the individual
subject. Lips of man are more mobile
than those of the horse: better able
to fully express fear, anger, surprise,
or only simple dislike. Clean-cut, fine
ly formed lips are indicative of good
breeding in both. Heavy and coarse or
habby, immobile lips, are always asso-
ciated in the mind with low breeding
and it's usual defects of character-In
the horse sullen, a stupid or listless
disposition. A pendulous lower lip In
the horse is very unsightly and objec-
tionable, betraying a want of spirit
and stamina, which is of such import

FAMINE IN RUSSIA.
Relief Work Extensively Carried On
Through the Red Cross.

WASHINGTON, February 2.-Em-
baSSador Hitchcock from st. Peters,
burg has reported to the state depart
ment on the famine conditions prevail
ing in some parts of Russia. The re-
port is taken from the statement of
the Red Cross society in the official
Gazette. ambassador Hitchcock says
that before transmitting the report in
question he called upon the Minister of
Foreign Affairs to ascertain whether
or not the report as set forth was ac-
curate and whether or not the imperi-
al government would care to have the
matter brought to the attention of the
public in America with a view of en-
listing the sympathies and action of
our people, who responded so gener-
ously to a call made upon them under
similar conditions years ago.
Count Muravieff stated that the re-
port might be considered official. Des-
titution following failure of the crops
exists in seven eastern and two central
provinces of Russia, and the relief
work is being carried on by the Rus
sian imperial government through the
agency of the Russian Red Cross, be-
cause it was left direct government
aid might foster a feeling among the
peasant class that they had right to
demand rather than to request assist
ance, even when their suffering was
the direct result of their own laziness
as well as the failure of their crops.
