Noted Educators Deliver destructive and
Entertaining Lectures.

The Kootenai and shoshone county
Joint institute opened at Ratbdrum
last Monday, large number OF teach.
ers from the two counties being pres
ent.
DR.. J. r. Blanton, president OF the
Idaho university, delivered a lecture TO
large and appreciative audience, "a
king for his subject sThe True and the
False 10 Education" He took the
high ground that the world owed more
70 her educators than 10 any other class.
On the question of universal education
he said: There has been a great deal
of error advanced by some OF the intern
perate advocates Of universal educa.
tlon. They have often spoken as
though this by itself was enough. To
hear them talk the nations will
walk in the light Of the spelling book
and be saved. Here is cure for all the
diseases Of the body polite. The one
who does not know his letters may be
filled with dangerous plots and wiles,
but when be has learned from a to Y a
change viii come ever the spirit OF his
dream. When be reaches the readers
he gives up his envy and repinIng and
his cOmmunistie tendencies and be.
comes satisfied with his honest crust
and his hovel, where the wind enters
through many an inhospitabie crack.
Let him understand fractions and he
viii become good citizen. And II he
gets smattering of Latin he will live
righteoasly and soberly al! his days. ]
say to hear many talk this is TO be the
result Of universal diffusion of educa.
