Something for Nothing

We have heard of the boy who want
ed to eat his cake and keep it too, but
never before of man who sold his
goods and then gave the purchaser
credit for the amount paid. To learn
about this send to James Vick's Sons,
Rochester, N. Y, who agree TO do this
in their Guide. The golden wedding
edition of Vick's Garder and Floral
Guide is certainly an artistic work.
with It's twenty-four pages lithcgraph-
ed in colors, and nearly one hundred
more pages filed With handsome half
tone illustrations, photographed from
flowers. fruits, vegetables and homes.
While this guide is really too expen-
sive to give away, they give it with a
due bill for 25scents worth of seeds for
only Is cents. Another new feature is
the doing away with the old packet OF
vegetable seeds and stating the guam
tity in each case, the buyer getting
more for his money.

Suggested By the Association.

The following article from the pen
of Editor Miles, of the Redfeld Press,
has caused considerable favorable
comment in various portions of the
state and is worthy of careful reading
and consideration.
I'VE heard several of the papers
that were read at the association and
heard Of the contents of many of the
Others. We can't avoid the conclu-
sion that the educational pendulum is
swinging or has already swung clear
to the side OF theoretical methods. If
some of these high-np educators should
|deign to notice our remarks at all they
would simply say sold fogy," but we
have had our eyes open for quite a
number of years and are not a
stranger to school work and we are
convinced that not all the new methods
now being introduced or advocated
are Improvements on the methods
they seek to supplant.
"We have not space to ,particularize
now, but we challenge the modern
schools to show any better results than
were produced thirty or forty years
ago. We have good deal to do with
people who went to school then and
those who are in school now, and we
| ind the best spoilers are from those
Iold fashioned schools, the best all
around mathematicians are of the old
school The best penmen and the best
grammarians are not Of the latter days
while the best historians and students
in geography are not modern.
"This is a pretty broad assertion but
| it is not made without due thought.
We admit that modern pupils are
taught a greater range OF subjects, are
taken into subjects that their parents
never investigated, and led over beau
tiful fields where their ancestors never

"What is the cause Of this differ
ence? We believe it is because the

with too many things that are ho'

and therefore poorly taug hit, and that

think it is a waste of time on the part

or several other branches, to take up
these subjects in school The result is
the pupil gets a smattering of confused
and often erroneous ideas and is con-
fused and discouraged Time that
could have been protitably used is
wasted. We heard President French
advocate manual training This may
be all we'll in some places but South
Dakota has no room in its common
school system for it., and no occasion
for trying it.
sOur school teachers ought to study
how they can best advance the pupils
in those lines for which they are sent
to school. Teachers are not to pre-
sumo to tell what the parents ought to
have the children taught. but to teach
them what the parents desire. There
is 100 strong 9 tendency for the teach
|ers to be the whole thing, and to tell
the people what is and what is not for
the good Of schools The system is
being planned and executed too largely
by those who look at the matter from
the teachers standpoint. Parents who
Hinterpose an objection or make sug-
gestion are put aside with the assur-
ance that our schools are in the hands
.of professional teachers and that they
know all about it.
"What the people want is a good,
practical educat tion in the common
branches, an education that will make
good, strong citizens, and when they
want the isrhs and ologiess they are
willing to pay for them in other insti-
tutions. and they want this education
attained before the children have
wasted several years in the misty laby-
5rinths OF subjects they will never in-
vestigate for enough to root out the
errors they have imbibed from incom-
petent teachers.

ways and means committee, po-
(sition that carries with II the
leadership Of the majority Of the
house.
A large delegation of Ohio
centennial boomers struck Wash
ington this week, with varied
assortnents of Buckeye hurrahs,
land pockets full of Centennial
buttons. The delegation had a
|conference with the Ohio con-
gressional delegation, for the
purpose of arranging to get a
congressional appropriation for
the big celebration they propose
holding at Toledo, in 1902; also a
talk with the president. They
talk like men who know Just
what they want and expect to
get it.
Although it is not yet positive
|ly known whether President Nc
kinley will appoint anybody to
succeed Representative Dingley
on the Anglo-American commits
sion owing to the announcement
| that the commission expects to
complete its work by the close Of
this month, the friends of several
| members Of the house, including
1Tawney of Mimi. Payne of N.
Y. and Boutelle of Maine, be-
Elieving that he will, have been
laying wires to secure the APP
pointlnent. The Canadian lun-
bermen, who were in Washing
ton for the purpose of trying to
get the lumber duty cut IN half,
went home disappointed. If the
commission provides for any re-
ductlon, it will be small one.
Senator Bacon made a speech
on his resolution, declaring the
policy of this government to be
to allow the Filipinos to maintain
an independent government. He
said if Senator Foraker in his
recent speech CORRECTLY represent
ed the position of President Nc
Kinley, the administration ought
to support his resolution.
The senate this week slightly
amended and passed the Morgan
Nicaragua canal bill. but the
house committee is still hearing
miscellaneous canal arguments.
